Loyal dog stays beside body of dead master for three days

 

Picture: Thai Rath

 

Police and rescue services in Sattahip were called after a man was found dead in a rented terrace house. 

 

The badly decomposed body of Narong, 48, was being guarded by a brown and white Thai dog called "Jao Ta" who was barking and wouldn't let rescuers near the body. 

 

It was trying to bite anyone who came near.

 

The dog had to be chased out of the property before the body could be retrieved. There were no signs of a struggle. 

 

Locals said that Narong was allowed to live rent free and made a meager living collecting trash. He had not been seen since the 29th and neither had the dog that was usually out playing. 

 

Narong was a heavy drinker who suffered from various ailments and the combination of these seemed to have brought about his untimely demise.

They are dirty, disgusting and deceitful pests IMO.

Dogs are very loyal and wonderful.

[holy cow cm]

Dogs are weird for sure. Time for a tomato soup bath for that one.

"The dog had to be chased out of the property before the body could be retrieved. There were no signs of a struggle."

 

Out of his room or off the property?

 

Horrible attitude and mistreatment - they should have called an animal shelter to try to get the poor animal a new home instead of both showing no heart and contributing to the soi dog problem.

 

[DogNo1]

Ah, yes.  The much admired loyalty.  Ever heard of Hachiko in Shibuya, Tokyo? It’s worth looking up the story!

What would the dog do otherwise?

 

Phone it's brother and ask if it could stay with him, and could he help with organising the funeral?

 

Given enough time it would have started eating the corpse.

They also bite children; cause accidents on the road; spread rabies; disturb the peace; defecate all over the place; block entry to 7-11s and steal oxygen.

Yes, indeed, there are always bad dogs.

They are not even bad.  It is natural for a dog to clean itself after defecating; it is natural to lick the hand that feeds it.  It is natural to frolic on wide open spaces known as roads or to sleep alongside these roads when hot.

Which are mostly their owners faults. A properly loved and trained dog will be loyal to the end, be inoculated, taught to stay off the roadways and fear cars, defecate where they are taught to, and not be a nuisance to anyone. Sadly, many dogs, like children here, are allowed to run rampant with no supervision or care.

So what do you advocate here, putting down or sterilizing the owners?

Be very careful what you say....

 

Yesterday we had a report about a German guy who wrote to the gubmint: they listened.

 

Next thing you know, Anutin'll be at the door with a pair of shears!????

I won't be having any pet dogs.... they need too much effort and deserve to be looked after.

It would help the world if some were educated enough not to have pets, or kids, unless they were responsible. Of course this doesn't work in a country where greed overrides everything, and common sense isn't learned but narcissism is.

So do Thai people and farangs.

Very true.  And yet the vast majority of these accident-causing disease-spreaders have no owners yet are ignored by the authorities in the name of religion. 

 

Also true are your comments about the lack of parental involvement in the upbringing of youngsters despite Thailand's much vaunted trumpeting of the importance of family.

Don't know of any case of rabies-spreading farangs who bite people whilst blocking 7-11 doorways after defecating everywhere.  Agree with the 1st group you name.

Always makes me chuckle when people with a "meager living" can afford to be alcoholics.
