On 30th May, a TikTok user "userjimjim2porjai user บ้านเรามีแมวนะ" shared a short clip showing a row of these makeshift doghouses. The video depicts a dog comfortably resting in one of these shelters, accompanied by the message, "Street dog house. Thank you to the donors; may your merit be returned a thousandfold."

 

The clip quickly garnered attention and attracted numerous comments of admiration. Many praised the village's collective good-heartedness, with one user noting, "It's amazing to find a village so willing to accommodate stray dogs in their community." Another echoed this sentiment by saying, "Who came up with this idea? It's absolutely brilliant."

 

Further commenters requested the location of the village, keen on spreading the word about this commendable act to inspire others. In response, the original poster disclosed, "Chalika village in Prachuap." The video has been widely liked and shared, spreading the heartwarming story across the internet.

Good idea, although it would be much better if they did this everywhere, as it would keep many dogs off the sidewalks and streets to sleep, out of danger to themselves and drivers.
