January 25, 200917 yr No issue. Put the dog down or send it on it's way to Laos / Vietnam. The missus knows that if one goes after the kid or her or me then it is gone. One way or another. Even one taking too much interest in the baby will have to go. Don't give a hoot if right or wrong. My daughter is not getting ,mauled by some dog as many Thai kids are.
January 25, 200917 yr Every dog is different. Some are easier to train than others. My dog that loves to go after the feral pigs (they are notorious dog killers) but will leave the kalij (imported Indian pheasants) and my neighbors cat alone. Although only a couple years old he knows what meets my disapproval. He loves people and is very mellow with children. He was a undisciplined juvenile when we got him. With a lot of love and attention he has bonded with the wife and I and is loved by our neighbors. With their permission he is allowed to roam free. It helps that we live in an isolated area next to the rainforest. Drastic circumstances sometimes call for drastic measures. No animal should be a burden on their neighbors. Some of our neighbors either have fenced in properties or kennels for their dogs. Luckily for us and our dog he is well behaved.
January 26, 200917 yr When I lived in Phuket, troublesome neighbourhood mutts either vanished or were found dead; I believe they were poisoned.
March 11, 200917 yr Permanently curing a chicken-killing dog is akin to curing an alcoholic, at best. Simply put, there is no permanent cure.... it is always just a matter of time. I think you need to find another good home for your dog, and get a new family pet even if it is another dog. Cheers
March 12, 200917 yr When I was a kid, we had a doberman who would kill our chickens. Our vet suggested that we take a dead chicken, tie it's legs around her neck, and leave it there for a day or two. It sounds gross, but it really worked...
