webfact Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Dogs found tied and dumped on Army officer’s orders ‘now safe’ By The Nation Photo from: Watchdog Thailand Two dogs, who were left to suffer the hot sun for seven hours with their legs and mouths tied up and then dumped at a dumpsite in Lop Buri province on New Year’s eve on the orders of a senior military officer, are now safe, according to Watchdog Thailand (WDT). Photo from: Watchdog Thailand WDT said on its Facebook page that the unnamed officer had got angry because earlier that day, when he was on his morning bike exercise, he was troubled by the dogs. The dogs, which lived in the vicinity, reportedly chased him, so he ordered his subordinates to catch and punish them. The dogs were tied and left in the hot sun until 4pm. Even as they were barely able to breathe, they were taken away to be discarded at a dumpsite about three kilometres from the base. Photo from: Watchdog Thailand WDT reported about the “most dismal animal abuse committed by the head soldier of a Military Base in Lop Buri” to the authorities at the dawn of the New Year. A private had exposed the Army men’s actions by posting about the abuse on social media. Photo from: Watchdog Thailand This led to a search for the two dogs. One dog, named Thong Lai, was found last week while the other, named Dam Noi, was found on Sunday. WDT quoted the Royal Thai Army as reporting that the Army chief had instructed all agencies to desist from holding a press conference to argue the case. Photo from: Watchdog Thailand The Army also promised to protect the unnamed whistle-blower private and his family. Veterinarians were called in to check on and provide treatments to the two dogs, which were under the Army’s care, the WDT said.

doremifasol Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Poor dogs. Happy to hear they're safe now. I am so disgusted about the senior army officer, wouldn't offer a drop of water if I saw him dying of thirst. He would have to kraab the two dogs first. And I am not even kidding.....

I'm not sure how safe they are since they are under the care of the military. Look at the bottom picture - no food or water in the cage. The dog is panting. no cover from the sun and obviously thirsty? i agree the dog lover who could not justify in his mind the abuse, and reported the problem, will have to clean the general's garden with no toilet available.

TMNH Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 There comes a time when certain public officials need to be "eliminated"- meaning they should not be doing the job they are supposed to do. Then again...this is Thailand:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick dasterdly Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Good news that the dogs are ok and are now being cared for. Hopefully, the next good news will be that someone has adopted them, and that the General has been sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinalblue Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Just reinforces that their decision makers in this country are still why thailand is a 3rd world country... an emotional reaction to a decision should lose his current rank..and this is a man who is going to lead men and women into battle? incompetent to lead....and what’s worse is there will be no accountability for his poor decision......so nothing changes anyone want to bet he didn’t earn his ranking based on merit and accomplishments?

HalfLight Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Oh great, now they can go back to foraging for food in the sois of everywhere, and breeding and spreading rabies. Excellent, a triumph of concern for animals I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connections and a nice fat brown envelope is much more likely. Not that I'm saying the army is corrupt or anything... nonononono this sort of misunderstanding can happen anywhere... more-or-less.

oldrunner Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 There are sprays that repel dogs. Senior Officer needs psychiatric help. Reporting soldier needs quick release from Army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better to use the spray to get rid of the officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
