A Thai monk in Nonthaburi province near Bangkok died from a congenital disease rather than a dog attack. The dog, initially thought to be a Pitbull, was later identified as an American Bully and has now been taken in by an adoptive family.

 

The 46 year old monk, Bannadit, was found dead in his accommodation within the temple on January 21. He had bite marks on his head, and one of his wrists was missing. Bannadit’s pet dog, George was found at the scene.

 

Police and rescuers initially believed that George, presumed to be a Pitbull, fatally attacked the monk due to its instincts. However, the monk’s family disputed this, insisting that George was a friendly dog and had never shown aggression or bitten anyone.

 

The monk had several underlying health conditions, including diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. The family speculated that George may have consumed parts of the monk’s body after he died, as the dog was likely starving. The family expressed their hope that someone would adopt George and provide him with proper care.

 

 

Yesterday, January 22, a couple from Ayutthaya province, 38 year old Nirat and 33 year old Ploy, visited the temple to adopt George. Nirat, who already owns three dogs of the same breed, expressed confidence in his ability to care for George.

 

Nirat remarked that George showed no signs of aggressive behaviour and appeared to be grieving after the loss of his owner.

 

While George has not attacked his owner, all dog owners are still encouraged to remain mindful of their pets’ instincts. Owners should understand their pets’ nature and behaviour to avoid situations that might provoke aggressive responses.

So it wasn't a congenital dog attack?

[ronster]

Very strange how quickly they give these dogs away to be looked after by other people after it kills or eats someone.

Rightly so.

A Thai monk in Nonthaburi province near Bangkok died from a congenital disease rather than a dog attack...

 

. He had bite marks on his head, and one of his wrists was missing. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whatever his direct cause of death is,  too obvious  that dog viciously attacked that man.

For its further Kill Counts?

 

Who the hell wants the dog savaged(biting off one hand, crunched half of the head) of  his previous owner?

 

Can't believe it.

George The Flesh Eater.

[black tabby12345]

The diabetic is known to be more vulnerable to physical attack than those without it.

Shock of pain can trigger fatal heart attack(by the rapid increase of blood pressure).

Let's hope George doesn't bite the hand that feeds him. don't let him get hungry.😉

[Justanotherone]

let's wait a few weeks to see if the dog comes up in the news again

 

bite marks on the head from whom then? and wrist missing?  before he died ?
