Pit bull savages child in Chiang Mai - owner pays 3,000 baht and no more

[xtrnuno41]

Normally It has nothing to do with the dog. Any dog can rip you , even a Chihuahua !!

It all has to do with the owners on how they raise and teach their dogs on how they react and show energy.

THere is a guy in USA and he seems to know a lot about dogs and every time again, he shows its the people who cant handle their dog.

MAny AMericans have dogs, they cant control. He goes even to celebrities. He even goes over the world to show people they are wrong and not the dog.

Try youtube to see him work :

What a nasty dog owner,taking  little  responsibility for

the actions of his dog,why have vicious dogs like that

at a restaurant ,I think a boycott of his place of business

is in order,hurt him in the pocket,the little boy is going to

be scared for life.

regards worgeordie

My father was a breeder of Germans shepherds and Bouvier dogs for nearly forty years.

Any dog that had attacked a child or adult quietly disappeared.

A friend of him was in the hunting business and had some dogs for the hunt.

One of the dogs attacked his wife.

He took the dog and his rifle for a stroll, and came back with only the rifle.

Dogs that once attacked a human being can never be trusted.

Pitbulls are fighting dogs, can never be trusted, any sign of weakness from the owner and he will be attacked.

Surely the law should have called, dog taken away, other dog needs to kept in secure area. Dogs just tied is insufficient.

Locals need tp picket the restaunrant

 

Considering the number of times dog attacks on children have been reported, it seems as there is no legal avenue available to the victims here in Thailand.  The Thai system seems to care more about the dogs.

Pitbulls are fighting dogs? Since when?

 

being forced to fight and being fighting dogs are very different matters

A lot of you guys talk a tough game doing this and that....

 

Write an effective policy and procedure and then strict enforcement by the animal control dept...

 

this is a 3rd world country so just live with the consequences...you are here not b/c of gov management programs...

 

stop your howling....this is why you live here....accept the bad with the good....

As usually the dogs in Thailand are more valuable than human life.
When will it be a change? 
Owner must be responsible for all damage the dog/dogs do. 
Chip the dogs, tax the dogs, insurance of the dogs by owner. This is the only way to go forward with this problem. Soi/streets dogs government has to deal with. And this up to the culture how to do.

With all the dogs I have had over the years Rhodesian Ridgebacks have been the best guard dogs, but when away from the property are as docile as kittens

……….my little Shih Tzu on the other hand is a nasty little shiht 

As for pit bulls, sorry but the ones I have seen are just not worth the hassle

I am an animal (dog) lover, these breads appear to have a split personality, maybe bred into them and for sure once its there you cant get it out of them, my non professional opinion, it will do it again maybe this is not the first time, but when this happens in the UK it never happens again with the same dog and the owner suffers also with very heavy fines, costs and in some circumstances 5 years is not unheard

They do not have split personalities , but they are a very powerful dog.

 

sadly in Thailand, there are no dog parks and dogs are rarely socialised , even little poms can be aggressive.

 

parents teach their kids very little and  even less when it comes to teaching how to act with dogs .

 

i have 9 dogs, 6 are pitbulls. Neighbours kids annoy and do all possible to piss my dogs off, throw sticks over the gate, poke them , and the more dogs get angry the more they do it yet retarded parents laugh and find it amusing and do not even

try to stop or educate the kids

 

all my lot are big teddy bears and would lick you to death if you came over but I honestly do not know what they would do to retarded kids who annoy them on daily basis if they ever got out . 

 

I take mine mine for walks , sometimes individually and without a fail of near someone they start screaming like morons yet dog did nothing , and as you know the more “excited “ you get the more “excited” dog gets. Telling this morons to stop screaming is useless yet dog did nothing wrong, just walking down the street.

We kept them as kids in the Cape for other reasons.

It's not the dog, it's the owner - now there's an argument that destroys itself. The problem is, there's no way of telling if a person is capable of handling that potential lethal weapon known as the pitbull terrier. Yet the very worst of them claim the right to own such a beast. So if you don't want this weapon to fall into the wrong hands you have to decide one of two things: stringent psychiatric evaluations and training of potential owners, or eradicate the breed altogether so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands. The first is not possible in Thailand, which leaves only the second.

So the same evaluation should be applied to retriever owners?

 

My cat bites and her bites are by far worse than my dogs, should cat owners also be evaluated before being able to get such a weapon?

Couple of pics prove nothing, they will attack when the mood takes them and the results are devastating, 65% of attacks from all breeds in the USA in 2017 were by these vermin

The issue is not this dog but the damage it can do compared to other dogs. 

There are no bad dogs only bad owners. 

Most serial killers are white. Do we need to kill white people?

Sure, why not? But it must be embarrassing to admit you're being whipped by your pussy.

One thing in common with all

these dog attack cases is the medical fees, thai supposedly get free healthcare but each time they claim high medical fees. 

 

Are they really paying this fees or just trying to make some money out of incident.

 

Not taking away the attack but is kid playing in the car parking area safe place for kids to play unsupervised ?

 

OP states some locals managed to get the dog away but no parents at the scene ?

 

OP states kid was playing with other kids but dog attacked only him? 

 

Is it possible there is more to this story than parents have told so far?

 

another thing I found strange is usually owners of the dogs very reluctant to accept full responsibility but do negotiate , on this case owner seemed to put his foot down on such a small amount.

 

something is missing from this story 

[poohy]

I dont know enough about pit bulls to comment but those trained from puppy should be ok

re other big dogs, yes i know,  my 3 are all trained by me from puppies

We live in a remote area ....They guard and do it well, you come to my gate i know You however know you are not welcome if i invite you in you make friends fast

You come in uninvited not a wise move!!

Most Thais do not know anything about dogs and dont necessarily like this or are scared  even though dogs are always on my property

To avoid poisoning dogs will only eat from me takes a while to train them to do this

 

Sadly if a dog bites someone there is only 1 solution putting down

Most likely knowing Thai kids!!

[hotchilli]

Any dog that attacks is dangerous, defenseless young children are most at risk.

The owner of this dog should be shamed into paying all medical expenses involved in the treatment of the child. The dog is their responsibility.

Says everything about the country that the animal is still alive after such an act

Ahh, the USA, that pet loving country where illegal puppy farms and dog fighting are huge businesses. When the dogs are brought up traumatised by people who should not be allowed to own them, what do you expect. The dogs are not bred to be violent, they are goaded and tortured into being violent.

So what was the reason for this pit bull to attack the Thai boy?

[wisperone]

How irresponsible was it that the police left the dog at the restaurant. The same or worse is bound to happen again. Pit bulls are a accident waiting to happen. They attack kids in their own household. Only way to prevent it is to get rid of the dogs and outlaw them. There is no need for anyone to own one of these dogs, other than they are over compensating for some shortcoming in their measly life.
