  • Mr. Mathias is a crazy self-entitled lunatic that needs to be arrested, fined, hopefully jailed and when time served, deported as a persona non grata.

  • Probably he think not wrongly that using lawyers and throwing money at the problem will make it go away . The hell with other beach users. Thailand seem to attract such undesirables and white trash li

    Hey, I got a solution...   Grab a sturdy piece of driftwood and beat the <deleted> out of these vicious animals.  If the owner tries to stop you, do the same to them. Problem

I walk every morning before breakfast.

I encounter lots of Thai dogs.

None of them attack me.

There were a couple dogs in my neighborhood who used to bark and menace me.

I trained them not to do that by throwing a chunky rock in their faces when they tried to pull that <deleted> on me 

I usually missed but they got the memo and ran away.

Now they don't even flinch when I walk by them.

 

If the Swiss Farang had Golden Retrievers, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Golden Retrievers don't menace and bite people.

At most, they want to jump up on you and lick your face.

Contrast that to other breeds raised for aggression like German Shepherds or Pit Bulls.

Google "pit bull mauls and kills owner"

 

PROTIP: If dogs menace you on a beach, squat down grab some sand fling it in their eyes

 

Then you can look for a rock or a stick to defend yourself.

 

Don't let "good doggies" go bad (pack instinct).

 

Train your pups, people.

 

One way or another. 😆

 

UPDATE: I guess #10 proved my stereotype of Goldens false. 😘

 

Here are 10 reported incidents where pit bulls have fatally attacked their owners:

1. El Paso, Texas (July 2021): A 59-year-old woman was attacked and killed by her family's two pit bull dogs while at home. 


2. Eastern Cape, South Africa (November 2024): A 67-year-old man was mauled to death by his three pit bulls in Dikeni. 


3. Bronx, New York (April 2024): A 41-year-old man named Kaheem Robinson was fatally attacked by his pit bull inside his apartment. 


4. Compton, California (March 2024): Dominic Cooper, a 35-year-old suspected pit bull breeder, was mauled to death by his own dogs. 


5. Roxbury, Massachusetts (November 2024): Jeriline Brady-McGinnis, 73, was attacked and killed by her own pit bull in her home. 


6. Lampang, Thailand (July 2023): A 78-year-old man was killed by his two pit bulls, named Big and Black, while he slept. 


7. Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand (February 2023): A 47-year-old man named Thedpong was fatally attacked by his pit bull, Bobby, after intervening to save his mother from an attack. 


8. Udon Thani, Thailand (December 2023): A 47-year-old man named Pornchai was killed by three pit bulls that escaped their property and attacked him at the entrance of his home. 


9. Bangkok, Thailand (March 2019): A 75-year-old woman was mauled to death by her family's six pit bull terriers. 


10. Sattahip, Thailand (June 2011): A 51-year-old man named Mana Tesrit was attacked and killed by his Golden Retriever after allegedly abusing the dog. 

These tragic incidents highlight the importance of responsible pet ownership and the need for proper training and socialization of dogs.

Keep it polite and civil please!

Generally the Swiss are ok & easy going. But you get the odd one (like in this case) that's real stubborn. Theirs plenty ways to sort him out, but what will happen to the dogs if he has to go.

If he really cares for these dogs then he needs to stop pissing people off PROMPTO.   

Deport him. Dog owners never change.

capture all his dogs send them to Cambodia, yumyum , then deport him problem solved

What is wrong with the law enforcers?

 

Like in many countries they are afraid they'll get regrimanded for taking their own decissions without asking the policeofficer in charge.  Deport the guy after doing some jailtaime.
