Jonathan Fairfield Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Phuket Vice Governor Vikrom Jakthee accepts the formal complaint from volunteers at the Phuket Dog Shelter yesterday. Photo: PR dept PHUKET: Volunteers at the Phuket Stray Dog Shelter have filed an official complain to Phuket Governor Narong Woonciew after claiming their requests for help from the Phuket Provincial Livestock Office (PPLO) have been constantly ignored. The formal complaint, received in person by Phuket Vice Governor Vikrom Jakthee yesterday (July 2), claimed that the PPLO had informed the volunteers that any requests or complaints were being handled by the Phuket Provincial Administrative Organisation (PPAO or OrBorJor). After hearing nothing from the PPAO for six months, the volunteers approached the organisation again for an update only to be told it was not their responsibility and it would be handled by the PPLO after all.

They'd be better off putting down any that cannot be rehomed and all money donated for dogs go into castrating and neutering all dogs still on the streets to let them die out. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tropposurfer Posted July 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2021 I am sure I will get into a heap of trouble for saying this but what the heck. With all the unfed, starving, abused, and unloved children, and the lonely, isolated elderly in this world why do people focus on stray dogs? I have some pretty good ideas as to the possible answers to this question. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post digger70 Posted July 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2021 Tired of being ignored, volunteers at Phuket Dog Shelter lodge complaint with Governor . The livestock officers must know full well that there are only six staff at the shelter who are responsible for taking care of almost 1,000 dogs and who operate on an insufficient budget,” it added. “You must know that the dogs in the shelter do not have freedom and have to fight for food in order to survive. We volunteers have helped by working in the shelter for the last five years when there were only originally around 300 dogs. Today there are around 1,000 dogs and urgent help is needed. Well well there's the problem . Get the Dogs Exterminated just keep a couple just in case someone wants one. In Aus the shelters keep the dogs for 3 or 4 weeks depending what they are . Then after that they get put Down .if No one claims them or owns them . No sympathy if they can't cull them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now 5 years later , she is going to school and top of her class - children are not dogs, grow up.

The old, dogs are better than some humans angle, well they are not and these people posing as animal lovers almost certainly eat them anyway. Neuter strays and they are still a menace and a pest causing road accidents, noise and inconvenience. Destroying them is what has to happen if the place is not to continue looking third world. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickeymaus Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 There is also a Covid problem with animals like cats and dogs. So masks for them and no social gatherings anymore and temperature and Covid checks!

Regretably, the dog sanctuary has made a rod for its own back and now expects to be bailed out. Release them all, no one cares, problem solved. As long as none can be traced back to the sanctuary when they have bitten children, etc...but then even those dogs are never destroyed. There's an old addage, no good deed remains unpunished. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you really think destroying them will make this place look less third world . Well i have news for you , it will take many different things to make that work and they have nothing to do with stray dogs . And if you think destroying those dogs will make it look less third world destroying people like .... will be on the same agenda to make that work . Would surely make it much more nice with the dogs and without your kind . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right , no good deed remains unpunished . So the person destroying them will also not go unpunished. And about dogs biting children , that's the same as all black people are drug dealers and all muslims are terrorists . How many times do dogs bite children ?? It surely happens i am not saying it never happens but C'mon . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthainess Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Try complaining to a dog shelter about the noise, see where that gets you, even though you were there before the shelter. My suggestions: Stop thinking about dogs first. Why take on more than you knew you had staff for. Your shelter is over crowded, accommodation was for 300 dogs now 1,000., In 5 years you have not reduced the amount of dogs needing shelter, but increased it. Time to start putting soi dogs down. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinalblue Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Here is the problem that I have with the simple minded over-riding answer of solving the soi dog problem is from the usual white nationalist from colonial imperialist empires of putting every soi dog down…so we would have streets free from ownerless dogs just like in our own countries w/o any consideration of the Thai culture, Thai religion and Thai people’s input in solving their own issue…it works in my country so that is good enough for me mentality…. the current soi dog management issue is really dictated by cultural policies and beliefs…which many westerners on this board flat out don’t agree with… is this management issue any different than a host of other in-country issues like air pollution, road safety, drownings, garbage/litter, disease control, and now currently the vaccination roll out? I commend the people Thais and foreigners who volunteer their time and even monies to help the soi dog population… any person who donates or devotes their personal resources to whatever cause that suits them shoukd not be criticized or told that those resources should go to help neglected or abused children or whatever instead… This is a personal choice not a priority ranking of causes… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A person who cared about their dog would not let it roam around freely causing chaos and mayhem for everyone else, take these pests off the street, Those pets that accidentally get caught up in the capture will quickly be rescued by their real owner the rest should after a week or two be humanely sent to the next life.

I hope people keep that in mind when for whatever reason you loose your house and job or whatever . These dogs didn't choose for this and there are people taking care of them hence the ask for help from the government in this story . The people that do this do this for free and are trying to give these dogs some kind of a live . And 99% of all the streetdogs are no hassle to nobody . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
