A stray dog named "Giant" was left in a severe condition after being viciously stabbed by a passerby angered by the dog urinating on his car's wheel. The cost of surgery and medical care totals hundreds of thousands of baht, but an altruistic woman has stepped in to cover all expenses, asserting that every life holds value.

 

On 1st May, Bangkok residents and motorcycle taxi drivers from Krungthep-Nonthaburi 12 Alley sought assistance for Giant, a 5-year-old stray dog. The poor dog had been stabbed six times with a knife near his rear, leaving him unable to urinate naturally and forcing him to relieve himself through open wounds. The terrified animal was found cowering in a dilapidated sofa near the taxi stand.

 

Ms Sarintip (known locally as Ms Gai), who regularly feeds and cares for Giant, along with volunteer Mr Ju, took the severely injured dog for emergency treatment at a local veterinary clinic.

 

Medical expenses amounted to 4,889 baht. Ms Pornthipa Supattnukul, or Director Fa, the philanthropist owner of Fah Cable TV who learned of the incident, generously covered these costs.

 

Additionally, Director Fa arranged for Giant’s transfer to a larger veterinary hospital in Lam Luk Ka, Pathum Thani, equipped with modern facilities for further treatment.

 

Director Fa, known for sheltering hundreds of injured or abandoned stray dogs and cats at her home, expressed her dismay: "I found it heart-wrenching to see Giant harmed so brutally. Each life is worthy, and I believe in creating merit by rescuing these animals. I intend to help Giant recover fully."

 

The veterinary team conducted x-rays and blood tests on Giant, revealing critically low platelet levels. Blood was sourced from a canine blood bank, and Giant faces a two-week recovery period before any surgery.

 

The anticipated cost of his comprehensive treatment, including surgery and blood procurement, might reach into the hundreds of thousands of baht, all of which Director Fa has committed to covering.

 

Ms Sarintip, deeply moved by Director Fa's generosity, expressed her gratitude and vowed to pursue legal action against the offender.

 

She intends to file a police report against the individual responsible for this brutal attack over the trivial matter of a dog urinating on a car tyre and cited a previous incident where the same person allegedly beat a cat to death.

Sorry, but " Medical expenses amounted to 4,889 baht" is not "hundreds of thousands of baht"

stabbing a dog for urinating on a car wheel is sick.

heavy fine at least. 

 

should just put the mut down... it would be the best for all and most humane.

yeh, stabbing it was harsh.  A swift kick in its balls would have sufficed.

At least someone stood up for the dog. Most Thais I see are trying to run them over, beat them with a stick while driving, or kicking them. Sure the Sois are loaded with dogs, but they need to find a humane way to solve this issue. Been going on for years.

Just do to the low life what he did to the poor mutt

A few stabs to the rear end and nuts should do, hell I'd pay to watch that

The 4,889 baht was only for the emergency help, not the long term treatment. Find somebody who can help you to read.

What a load of babble about humanity🙄

For a stray dog looks healthy (before the stabbing)

You are also very gullible thinking it would cost hundreds of thousand of Baht to treat a stab wound in a dog.

First you need to have an actual level of care for most of the animals in this country. There are some that do, but quite a lot that treat animals very poorly, poison them, and let them attack people with little consequences.

Taking the stitches out. Funny the difficult bit is a few thousand baht but the long term post operative care is hundreds of thousands.

again, read the article the dog was stabbed six times. I have spent over a 100,000 baht on one of my dogs for a hospital stay.

can easily be a 100,000 baht or more, depending on how many internal injuries. I have spent over 100,000 on one of my dogs, so speaking from experience.

Read the article, six stab wounds with internal injuries can sky rocket the cost. Apparently you know nothing about hospital costs for dogs.

Please name and shame the car and the driver, so we can piss on him/her and the car!!!

Clearly a minimum 200,000 baht as the report said hundreds of thousands.

Woman Rescues Dog Brutally Attacked for Urinating on Car

 

It's nice that she rescued a dog, but why then go on to urinate on a car, and who attacked her???  🤔

Not a simple stab wound. It will require complex and skilled work.
