webfact Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Picture: Thai Rath Thai Rath reporters went to a housing estate in the north east of Thailand after a pack of five dogs owned by a neighbor savaged a little girl yesterday. Khanitha Sukchoke, or Nam Wan aged 4, had been allowed by doctors to go home to her house in Song Chan sub-district. She had multiple wounds to her legs and back. It could have been much worse but a boy intervened with a stick to stop the worst of it. The child's aunty, Deuan, said that Nam Wan was playing where she always did when the Thai breed dogs attacked and she ran out of the house hearing the commotion. She said that in the past her husband, Nam Wan's grandmother and Nam Wan herself had been bitten by the neighbor's dogs but it was not serious. They just required rabies shots. This time the little girl and the rest of the estate had been left terrified of going out. They want the dogs locked up or taken away entirely. Noi, 53, the owner said she kept six Thai and mixed breed dogs and didn't lock them up. She said they were usually mild mannered though she admitted they had bitten the neighbors before. She was prepared to pay for everything - she considered the little girl a relative. And if the authorities decide to take the dogs away she would agree for the sake of everyone concerned.

Popular Post MSMU1993 Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 There are many Thais that have dogs and take good care of them, and keep them under control. But there are a lot that don't. If I could be PM for a day - i would buy and equip 100 pickups as mini surgeries and higher 100 vets and handlers. There only job would be to role around the country sterilizing every stray (or left loose) dog they come across. If they wont take care of them, at least don't allow them to procreate. 28 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six pets in a house is just too many.....when the word 'pack' can be used, one can expect pack behaviour. 25 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cake Monster Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 And again we read about a Child savaged by Dogs that are not under control. The Dogs have previously bitten Neighbours, so would never be considered to be " harmless " The Dogs need removing from the Womans custody, and taken away to be euthanized, and the Owner fined at least 100,000 Baht plus all medical Expresses, which would also constitute Plastic Surgery to try and repair the Damage inflicted on this Child by Her dogs. 26 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChipButty Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 I had a neighbour who insisted on keeping about half a dozen of these half bread dogs left to roam around in a high end moo baan, one in particular looked like a cross with one of them ridge backs and this was definitely Ting Tong Im not frightened of dogs but if you went for a walk this one would always come running out behind you I did tell the owner to keep that thing tied up, It seems like lots of other owners complained to the management nobody could go for a walk with their own dogs even without a dog you could not walk past that house without them come running out, Even if you wanted to walk to the shops you had no choice to walk past that house as it was the second one in past the security gate, I think he got a warning from the management not long after that dog disappeared 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a point: here, everybody agrees something needss to be done about attacking sogs, but when it's a boorish male that attacks a woman, then some even sympathize with the piece of sxxt 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tony125 Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 In Boston MA USA if dog bites someone have to quarantene for 10 day to check it doesn't have rabies but isusually given a warning. If bites again they will take away and put to sleep. These dogs have been given their 1 bite time to get rid of since they now are a pack and have no fear of attacking/killing a human. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall I read years ago where a guy in BKK (I think a veterinarian) went around using a blow-dart gun and was administrating rabies vaccines to the stray dogs.

Popular Post Dialemco Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 The poor little girl must be traumatised the very least the owner can do is to have the dogs put down and to offer the child compensation for the suffering that she has incured. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post swm59nj Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 Just endorses the mentality even more. Poor little girl gets bitten by dogs that have bitten before. People that have gotten bitten gets rabies vaccine, so that makes everything ok. But since the dogs have attacked the little girl. They want the dogs taken away now. These dogs should have been taken away a long time ago. Dog’s owner says dogs are good dogs . But they have bitten in the past. How ignorant is that. If the poor little girl was injured fatally. Probably would say dogs are good. Get a wai. And maybe a few hundred baht damages. Ignorance at its best. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, there's Soi Dog Foundation. They go into an area for months at a time, and sterilize most of the cats and dogs there, then move on to other areas. They were on Samui for over a year! If you ever want to help or donate to the cause, they would be a great candidate. What dedicated people, and the vets are AWESOME! Best surgeries I've ever seen!

Don’t worry too much, the inevitability of a PitBull or similar maiming or killing someone or even a child means that news article is not too far away… Just the same as a bus full of tourist going down a ravine, it’s driver blaming a slippery road, or or a truck plowing through a load of traffic at lights, the driver claiming brake failure, or someone in a car killing another & fleeing the scene at 3am avoiding a breath test… My point with all that… some issues in Thailand are utterly predicable because nothing is done to prevent them. It’s just very sad that along with all the other avoidable issue ‘dogs attacking kids’ has become normalized. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Youngmanoz Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 What a shame having dogs attack a child unbelievable Thailand I use to shoot dogs for attacking my sheep where I come from the owners learnt there lesson when they went home and found their dogs on the door step with a bullet in these heads ......
