milesinnz Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Thais seem to have a "don't care less" about their own dogs. Few seem to be trained at all, and allowed to run free causing all sorts of trouble. I have no idea of the statistics, but it would seem dog ownership is quite high... I am surprised it is tolerated as it is.. perhaps it's just a part of Thai culture whatever the downsides.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDfella Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 What a tragic painful way to die, very sad indeed. My condolences to the family. On similar posts I have written about the soi dogs where I live...but there have been additional pups since then. They chase motor cyclists, cars, cyclists and there have been a couple of accidents but no one does anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinnock Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 1 hour ago, P Funk said: Instead of buying the latest Ferrari, maybe a few of Thailand’s better heeled could start a fund to pay for spaying and neutering the stray dogs. That is true Taam Boon! But will that help them to bed a junior Lakorn starlet? You seem to have misunderstood the priorities of the Thai elite. Proper stray animal control is long overdue, but unfortunately a tragic incident to a young village girl will not change the spending priorities of those people with spare cash. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Police said just let it go.. Owner said its the other neighbors dog which is rubbish. Just absolutely moronic. So dam ignorant and this is why im not fond of thailand anymore. Its the people! My sister-in-law was killed, breaking her neck, and a witness said a dog had rushed out of a garden as she passed on her bike and fell off. Of course, when we investigated no-one owned the dog. Thais have no morals or any sense of responsibility at all. As your experience, her brother - a policeman - just had to let it go. Never expect anyone here to own up to anything or to speak the truth. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percy P Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 5 hours ago, canuckamuck said: We usually have about 2-3 dogs that are not ours. But we have had some bad ones that received village justice. The two living here are assumed to be ours though, Mother in law brought them here as pups. I have nothing to do with them other than scratch their heads, as a good person does. But it is typical of the family who look after a dog then claim its a stray and doesn't belong to them when an incident happen like this. It should be the responsibility of the village head to see that all dogs have a collared with the owners name on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunmaster Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Where does ownership begin? I feed 2-3 stray cats. They like to stay around the house (not inside) and I take them to the vet occasionally. Still, I don't consider them to be mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OffshoreMig Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Very sad indeed reminds my of 'the Dingo got by Baby' tragedy in Australia Thailand has to do something to eradicate and limt the stay dog population. Any dog responsible for the death and harm of a child should be put down. Make shure you Rabbis shots are up to date. soi Dogs carry diseases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont understand....male the dogs get aggressive too so its not a female thing. If they're afraid of humans they should stay away from them not attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post kingstonkid Posted December 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2019 You can not blame the grandmother. How many of us have looked at something for a minute and turned around and said the same thing. Where the hell did he she go now. Kids get distracted kids wander off. Not that long ago we all went out to play and the last thing we wanted was parents around. She was at home in her village. We should feel safe at home and not have to worry. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usual cop-out, it's not my dog it's a stray, but they feed it scraps everyday to keep it around as free security! He needs to offer some compensation, the dog should be put down and as far as Grandmother she'll have to think about her actions until she's gone.

She watches over my daughter and wife (wife hates her and they run round the cars my wife chasing her) But the dog is never far from them looking out) She is also loyal protector of the neighbors gardens (her area) and will always join the kids playing. The have small mouths but, very sharp teeth. Lives in the garden, Barks at strangers, moves on soi dogs, who run past her area, except lead dog who visits once a day, they greet each other and moves on. And howls a warning on snakes, and attacks them if they hang about. But, I agree any dog that attacks people is swiftly dispatched, own or not! The other dogs ain't stupid and become aware of what will happen if they do, otherwise they do a great service in keeping vermin both 2 legged and 4 legged versions out of the area. Mind you our village doesn't have many simple folk living in it! Finally if our dog ever bit/attacked a person to cause injury, We would have her put down. I thought vets won't put dogs. cats etc down for religious reasons. Edited December 19, 2019 by possum1931 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawadee1947 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 It's a terrible story. And everybody who was going around somewhere on a push bike could tell about the horrible incidents with dogs. I can remember that there was a plan (as always) to tax the owner of dogs. This would create responsibility and a good job for dog catchers. RIP little girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaver93 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 A prime example of 'couldnt care less' I walk my dog every morning,she is leashed.. I carry a stick, basically for her and my protection, A certain individual, rides a bicycle, with his 2 dogs which are unleashed, and are a nuisance... On one occasion, one of his dogs, growled aggressively at my dog, and was poised to pounce, so I pointed my stick at the dog, and warned this idiot, after I battered his dog, he would be next ... He shrugged his shoulders, and said "Mai pen rai", with that,I pulled my shoulder back, fortunately the dog backed off and ran home.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
