Another crazy expat that seems to think there is a Thai behind every lamp post with a machete or a gun.... Where do all these farangs live that shows Thailand is such a violent place?.... It sounds like Pol Pot's Cambodia from the late 70s where you live.

 

So you are saying that my wife accidentaly rolls over a stupid animal and all of a sudden someone is going to shoot her husband in the head who wasn't even in the car but sat innocently at home and THAT is a good way to get murdered by all those gun toting Thais in this Mad Max style hellscape I have moved to?????

 

You need to write for Hollywood.

I see you're a newbie here. 

 

I see alot of you newbies come and go, I'm sure we won't be hearing from you for long with your attitude. 

You guys don't last long. 

My wife ran over our own dog on our driveway in a similar fashion. It didn't yelp, but had limited use of its front legs. 2,000 Baht (X-rays etc.) and a week later it was running around as normal. But now it doesn't lie on the road and runs away from cars and motorbikes.

Check my bio, been here 13 years, think I have a grasp of the place by now.

 

If you are referring to time on this forum.... 8 years.

 

You are clearly running out of steam with that last comment..... Bwahahahaha

I literally don't believe a word the OP literally wrote.  Sounds like he's literally trying to squirm out of responsibility for his wife having literally driven over a neighbor's dog.

did SHE get hurt  555

I'm sorry OP, but this was no accident. If your wife saw the dog lying in the road then drove up slowly until she couldn't see it anymore, the dog hasn't walked off so it's obviously still lying there. She'd have seen the dog if it had walked off. 

You have my sympathy. Nobody should have to put up with the torture you're going through with those dogs. But let's not pretend it wasn't a hit job...

Were you a witness to this incident...or just speculating?

OMG, I just realized You are the OP. 

 

Another fake posting. 

 

You fake people posting people just here to antagonize the other members. 

 

Get a life dude. 

 

 

To the original poster, deny everything.

Your word against the neighbor, did they actually see anything or just jumping on the bandwagon.

Even if there is a video deny its your car, deny, deny.

Once you even slightly admit something might have happened you open yourself up to a whole new can of worms.

He has none of mine.  Animal cruelty is never acceptable and this was just that. Reserve your sympathy for that poor unknowing animal.

If I knew who the poster was and knew his neighbor, I would certainly tell them who was responsible.    

There are some very efficient repellants in spray to keep the stray creatures away (the soi dogs that is ????). Check out Amazon or Lazada.

White vinegar does it and it is harmless to the animals. 20 Baht a bottle from Big C or Lotus. We put it around our gates to keep away the odd soi dog, if only to stop our two dogs from barking at them.  Without rain, the effect seems to last quite a time, days,  not hours

They also are quite viscious, I literally can not walk round the corner to the shop without them barking and snapping at my heels....

If this is true, then it's quite easy:

Walk along the street, take a video of the dog snapping at your heels.

Confront the neighbors with your video, and tell them you expect them to pay for your hospital visit and the tetanus shots (also take a video of this). Suddenly it's probably not their dog anymore. This is then also your chance to take the dog without owner to some temple far away.

I Told the young lady of my house about the OP experience.She said roads are for cars not for dogs to sleep on! 
Then she said Som namm  na ma!

Serves the dog right!

Rationally speaking the idea is to not escalate the situation(take the dog)

Some Thais have been known to get

very hostile when it comes to their family!

My wife has a house in Isaan which we visit a few times a year. For the past 3-4 years there was always a large and rather vicious neighbour's dog hanging around in the street.  When we visited in September last year I commented to my wife that the dog was no longer around. "Yes Teerak, my dad beat it to death with a brick".

I should add that my father in law was a bit of a local character and once walked into a crowded restaurant and shot a man in the head. Apparently the man had attacked FiL's brother.  Sadly FiL had a fatal heart attack in December....

yeh, dogs know all about roads. They read road signs too. Kids bait the dogs and they react, the elderly know about dogs and don't get bitten. Anyone with half a brain knows how to deal with stray dogs, even ones with collars. 

Deal with it in the customary Thai way

 

 

 

 

 

poison the dogs

so you think it's ok for the neighbour to let his dogs out on the street all day and night .  ?  your as bad as the neighbour ....   lol  ...   no wonder thailand has a huge dog problem.

Its the way of the Thais.  Its hardly sensible but it happens.  Deal with it if you want to live here. You're not in Basingstoke now, or wherever else you come from. 

One of our dogs once jumped out of the saleng (motorbike sidecar), then bit and killed a chicken, one of the many that roam the sois.

 

Everyone knows a whole gai ban (country style, freshly prepared chicken) can be had in the market for about 200 baht. But to compensate the dead chicken at the hands of the wife's dog, married to the farang, that the whole tambol (subdistrict) knows, 1000 baht. 

 

You can argue about it all you want. But if you want to keep the peace, just pay the compensation, and be more careful next time.

No what is needed is a spray to keep certain neighbors away, far away.

I did not see anything, so it did not happen. But if it's true story, I nominate your wife for '' Citizen of the year''.
