Not everyone likes dog poop everywhere.

If the dog had been on a lead, it wouldn't be dead.

So dogs on a lead don't poop? That's a new one for me. And have you ever seen someone take a dog for a run on the beach with a lead, when the whole point is that they can run around,

Did the dog arrive by plane, or did it live here with its farangy owner....?  ????

All foreigners are considered to be tourists in the Thai mind. Including immigration, who graciously allow us to 'visit' our wife - as long as we report to them every 90 days as if we are on probation.

 

If it was a tourist, which I very much doubt as they rarely if ever travel vast distances with their dog, then the foreign media will soon pick it up and expose Thai safety standards and warn tourists that they enter the sea at their own risk.

Tourist doesn't mean foreigner.
