HeijoshinCool Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 What Happened To The Soi Dogs? Soi dogs...........The snack of choice for that busy Burmese worker, "Food that delivers itself" As far as I´ve seen, the Burmese take better care of the dogs than the Thais do. Farmers always take good care of their animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby nz Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 One bit me on Friday and I have to go back for the next in a series of rabies injections Tuesday. The pack, one of many raced out while I was riding my bike down the road. Wish you dog lovers would come and pick up all these lovely, faithful mongrels and take them to give them your love and attention, somewhere else. There are places around here you cant go because packs of wild dogs have taken over. And cutting the balls out doesn't work the dog lady tried it in Hua Hin, there are always some that evade the knife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a saying in my country, "Sport is murder!" (on your own body) Wish you dog lovers would come and pick up all these lovely, faithful mongrels and take them to give them your love and attention, somewhere else. Maybe try it with some of "your love and attention", not "fear and hate", A dog can try to chase anything what moves, special what moves away from him. Bring some left overs, bones, the dogs will be ok. Come walking or with car, throw bones to them, you get friends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just spent time in another Buddhist country, Sri Lanka, where a few years ago the dog population was completely out of control, up to 2,000 people a month being bitten, so action was taken by the government. The Sri Lanka government no longer supports culling, but is funding dog sterlisation programs that's reportedly achieving success for the ongoing management of the dog population. It's noticeable that their are a lot less dogs on the beaches & streets than Thailand. It's a shame the Thai authorities cannot get their act together to manage the huge street / beach dog population.

Travel2003 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Employ a dog catcher in each town, collect the males cut off their balls and release them a week later when fully recovered, place where they were found. No collar or chip then take off their nuts, In a couple of years through dogs being hit by cars, illness, malnutrition the problem will be made a lot better. It's got to be better than seeing these poor scabies ridden mutts digging in bins for a left over scraps. A very admirable suggestion. However, it is not that simple. The whole operation needs a lot of people involved, with supplies, locations, medicines, equipment, catch and release crew, medical crew, taking care of crew, and....salaries. Nobody will do it for free. The number of dogs might decrease, but very little, because Thais in general just get rid of their pets as soon as they see they need to take care of them. There is a constant supply of soi dogs all the time, from previous owners who got tired of their pets. News articles about Thais and their pets, and how they just get rid of them, pop up in all news papers and tv channels, around Valentines day each year.

I gave a possible solution to have a good connection with the dogs for -Robby-. As we say in my homeland, -Usually, the feeding hand (person) is not bitten!- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel2003 Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 10+ years in Thailand, and I never ever saw a dog catcher. The main problem is the constant supply of dogs into the sois by people who just toss their pets out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaullyW Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Soi dogs in Thailand are getting kidnapped and loaded onto truck in horrific conditions (many die suffocated) to be tortured (inflicted pain or skinned alive to supposedly taste better). Please help to stop this disgrace defacing the human race http://www.soidog.org/en/dogmeat/ That was very difficult for me to look at that website. But it compelled me enough to make a donation! So damn sad....really :-( Thank you it's amazing how even little money can save lives, AND you get good karma ! Karma such a saving others' lives, refraining from killing, relieving others' worries, curing others' illnesses, generously helping hospitals and medical research, or aiding environmental improvement may cause one to be reborn as a human being with a long life and good health, a person to be liked and supported by many people! THE TRUTH OF KARMA http://www.sacred-texts.com/bud/tib/drshen2.htm Ooohhhh, I want some Karma! Do they have it at Emporium or maybe Paragon. Central World is a bit tough to get to because I have to walk from either Chidlom or Siam... Shouldn't be too expensive, right? And, what type of units do they sell it in? By Keed or Kilogram?
