aTomsLife Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) This is, for me, the very worst thing about everyday life in Thailand. I live in a small city off the tourist trail and don't feel safe walking the streets after dark for fear of these mongrels. Call it spiritualism, call it apathy, why Thais allow these pests to wonder about is beyond me. A dog lunged at me today, my reflex was to step back and I was almost hit by a car. I hate hating dogs, as I've always been a dog-person. Edited April 30, 2013 by aTomsLife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSkip Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Time to remove some dogs after some tests on the Kid, hope he recovers.............. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobelcat Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Thank goodness for the tourist. I used to carry a stick around almost everywhere I went, but somewhat stopped doing that in the last 6 months. Not sure this will make me do anything differently, but makes me wish I would carry a stick more often. I'd hope that if I were in this situation I'd dive into the water to get away from the dogs. But with any panic situation, my brain likely wouldn't be very logical. Hope the kid recovers well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SgtPepper Posted April 30, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2013 Farang: (pointing at emaciated stray dog) Why don't you put that poor dog down? Thai: I can't do that. It might be my deceased uncle Bob. Farang: Why not give it something to eat then? Thai: Well, it might not be my deceased uncle Bob. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunMichael Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I've lived at many places in Thailand. First thing when I move to a new place the population of soi dogs gets down rapidly in my surroundings. I don't understand this. Someone out there who could solve this riddle???

Eddy B Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 A dog that attacks for no reason; anywhere, with no collar with its owners information on it should be rounded up and put down. It is that simple as that! Thailand has too many stray dogs because they are too cheap charlie to go to the vet and have them sterilized. When there are too many, they throw them out of the house or take them to temples and let them go. No sense of responsibility! If I have a dog, it becomes part of my family which also means I take care of it and if it F%^ks up, I have to deal with it; but here in LOS it is all mai bpen rai as you have to escape a neighbours dog who thinks you are free game to attack. Thai people have no idea how to raise a dog properly and this can be seen also with the new generation of children; on that note the kids just need to be loved and spanked when they are bad........not put down, like a dog. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unkomoncents Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Soi dogs have to be one of the biggest threats to personal safety, after vehicles, in Thailand. Can't take strolls at night or at any time as a result of these mongrels being left alone to cause mayhem and car accidents on the Kingdom's streets. I realized two years ago that I would soon leave Thailand forever after my wife and son were chased down a quiet Bangkok street one afternoon during what was supposed to be liesurely weekend walk. Thailand and Thais envision the country they live in as a peaceful, Buddhist paradise. Meanwhile, their streets are growling, deadly beasts that howl long into the night and play host to scores of undesirable, three-legged, rabies-infested mutts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the neighborhood my wife used to live in with her family, the method of choice used by neighbors to deal with unruly canines was poison. I don't have the stomach to do it myself, no matter how much I hate the dogs, but my understanding is that a heavy dose of rat poison will do the trick stat. It isn't pretty though. You do what you have to do to survive in Thailand. Edited April 30, 2013 by Unkomoncents 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait and see if he got rabies? I hope this is sloppy reporting and the boy was treated immediately to prevent rabies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
