scubascuba3 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I cycle just outside Pattaya and there is a high number of stray dogs dumped in the middle of nowhere, i must have passed 50 within 20 mins the other day 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
law ling Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 1. The full report notes: "Banglamung Hospital or Muang Pattaya Hospital, treatment is free of charge." - good to know (or is that for Thais only?), as I'd heard that the usual course of treatment can cost thousands. 2. About time stray dogs in tourist-frequented areas were eliminated (whereas Thais grow up with them, and have the skills to deal with them, tourists mostly have no such skills). 3. I wonder if dogs can carry covid. Just saying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not free for falang, i had to pay for rabies shots from Banglamung hospital but cheaper than other hospitals in area 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Why would tourists visit a place literally swarming with stray dogs some of which can kill? I read somewhere that owners were financially liable for damage/medical expenses caused by their pet; anyone asked Pattaya Plod to prosecute? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p414 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 There are many packs of strays near my home..I see a few people armed with large bags of food doing the rounds on motorbikes plus a coupe of pickups ..Daily feeding these packs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mr Meeseeks Posted January 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2022 When will they grow up and do something about the ever growing problem of filthy stray dogs just allowed to breed and wander in urban areas? Worse than most African countries. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I got that too in my area, very irritating as the numbers just keep increasing with the good supply of food. One of the food suppliers apparently had some very bad luck and took advice from monks, and feeding the strays was what was recommended as merit. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Pattaya has a good reason to cull some of these soi stray dogs, but will not do a thing because of Thailand being a Buddhist country. That is the sad truth of this situation, and I doubt that it will ever change. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it one Thai with several dogs or many Thais with single dogs? Why didn't the dogs runaway and disperse? Did you ACTUALLY SEE the dogs being 'dumped'? We're you near a temple? In the west people dump their dogs near motorways but in Thailand tend to drop them off in Temples and monasteries? Your story does not add up. I think you just came across a 'pack' of dogs and made the rest up.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Triangle Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I really do wish that the do gooders feeding these horrible mutts would pack it in, these dirty, smelly, dangerous mutts are a bloody nuisance, they make a right racket at night making decent sleep almost impossible. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You saw nothing. You did not see anybody dumping dogs. You saw a pack of dogs. You made up a story. I asked you two simple questions to add veracity to your story. You answered neither. FYI Dogs gather in groups called 'packs'. That is what you came across. Such packs interbreed and the group gets larger and sometimes they rest and sleep, often near roads. Don't worry about it. It's no big deal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that's Farang dogidiot wording. "Save the dogs" is one of many avenues used by some western characters to stay in Thailand. They might even create a Non-O DI visa category one of these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
