Residents of a condominium in Nonthaburi's Pak Kret district protested against the building's former manager, who converted a communal rooftop into a dog-breeding area. Nearly 100 Thai Ridgeback dogs were reportedly kept there, disrupting the community. The rooftop, originally meant for leisure and views, became inaccessible as the manager also used four additional units to house the dogs.

 

The residents complained about constant barking and foul smells from the rooftop and these units. Despite appointing a new juristic manager, the former manager initially resisted relocating the dogs. However, local municipal intervention led to an agreement for the phased removal of the dogs.

 

At the time of the agreement, 78 dogs were present, with 49 relocated so far. The remaining 29 dogs are expected to be removed by month's end. The current manager expressed hope that the issue would be fully resolved as promised.

 

Media outlets observed the dogs on-site, though the former manager declined interviews and restricted access to the breeding units, reported The Thaiger.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Residents protested the takeover of a shared rooftop for dog breeding.
  • Municipal intervention required the removal of 78 dogs, with 49 already relocated.
  • The situation is expected to resolve by the end of the month.

Agreed, our neighbors have two and they are very aggressive. If they are kept in a person's back yard or a kennel that's one thing, but these belong to the owners of a Cafe that we used to buy from, but after nearly being attacked by one of their dogs we no longer feel safe to go there, even walking past is a risk as the owners often leave the gates open. Common sense goes a long way in these kinds of matters.

This is a dog farm.

 

In the States it would be shuttered immediately and the ringleaders sentenced to prison.

No owners association? No condo president? Who hired the dog man and who hired has the power to fire.... all rather strange...

 Another example (not dogs) the very large penthouse on my old condo in Bkk was totally not accessable. after many years it was discovered that the owners (family) had turned it into a very large printing factory mostly producing high printing quality magazines like Vogue and similar.

 

Also discovered that the printing machinery was way too heavy for the strength of the floor and the massive amount of paper stock also way too heavy.

 

Also discovered that the coninuous supply of blank paper going up and finished magazines going down was all moved down to trucks waiting near the lobby entrance around 3 am to 4 am, and the weight of the paper going up to the top floor and the finished magazines way about 50% more than the lify manufacturers stated weight limit and 50% more than stated on insurance policies re maintenance of the lifts.

They are the only dogs that have followed me, snaping at my heels...they make good guard dogs though, if you like your visitors bitten...

I doubt you even know where dingoes come from, but certainly not Australia. They've been widespread throughout Asia for centuries and arrived in Australia in the 19th century. The government there has traditionally been overwhelmed by the idea of accepting the self-regulation of wildlife, and the world laughs at them... I bet you also believe the myth that dingoes kill small children, you joker 🤣🤣🤣... By the way, I own a dingo here in Thailand.

You just repeated what I said  "throughout Asia, and stop lying you don't own a Dingo here or anywhere else

What kind of clueless person are you to accuse me of not owning a dingo just because it doesn't fit into your limited brain? There are thousands in Thailand... but hey, you'll have to live with that limitation. For someone who has no clue about the subject, you're really putting in a lot of effort; keep embarrassing yourself. 🤣🫣👎

I can't speak (write) about ujay's dingo but, here is a link about Thai dingoes, inclusive of pictures. 

 

The Thai Dingo, sometimes referred to as the “Thai Dog,” is one of Southeast Asia’s most ancient and genetically important canids. Although taxonomically classified within Canis lupus dingo and closely related to the Australian Dingo and New Guinea Singing Dog, the Thai Dingo represents a unique regional variant shaped by thousands of years of coexistence with humans, tropical climates, and diverse cultural practices.

Also ...

And just judging from the map in this article, they may have made their way (did they build their own boats/ship?) to Australia from Thailand. 

 

HABITAT and RANGE of the DINGO

The dingo is known as the most prominent wild dog species in Australia, but they are also found all over Southeast Asia.  

It is suspected that thousands of years ago, dingoes were introduced to Australia from Asia, in an attempt to domesticate them. The first officially document report of the dingo in Australia was in 1699, when dingoes were distributed widely across the continent, living both in the outback and with the Aboriginal tribes. European settlers sometimes kept them as pets. The maps below show the widespread distribution of dingos

I'm aware of where they come from, but for someone to say they own a pure one in Thailand is utter BS.
