Keesters Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Sadly It is a world wide phenomenon. Nothing sad about keeping dog(s). What is sad is when people don't do it properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salapau Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 They're so obsessed that they let them roam the streets, shag in the middle of the road, poo everywhere and bark and bark and bark. I have one dog, never leaves the garden unless on a lead, never dumps whilst out, is fed well, washed regularly and is my buddy, am I obsessed. No way, a dog is only a dog.

masuk Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I had the misfortune to move into a house with three dogs next door. The owner was totally untrained..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel2003 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) I never saw dogs being walked by maids. The city I stay in, and your city must differ. I only see them locked inside and no one walks them. Same here. Once in a blue moon I see a foreigner walk his dog. Never see Thais really do that. Of course, we westerners have this ridicules bizarre relationships to these animals, acting like they are family members, as the locals have a more rational and pragmatic view on which level these creatures belong to in society.

namdocmai Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I live in a gated community and walk many dogs of thai neighbours who are too lazy to do that. They buy puppies because they are so cute but a year later give them away to the temple or somebody else. They don't care at all and might buy a new puppie next month. Thai dogs don't listen at all because they have never been trained. Streetdogs are fed by locals so they can guard their house, they don't have money for security. Dogs with a collar belong to somebody, if that dog causes you to have an accident the owner is responsible. I don't like streetdogs because they are not scared at all for traffic and i also ride a motorbike. Now i know the trick to scare them, lift your foot like you want to kick them and then they are gone very fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaeltheR Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Just a guess, but I reckon he's jealous because he can't afford to live in a location that is appropriate to keep a dog... not jealous. But my niece is a cat person and she has dog phobia so no dog in my house allowed Edited November 13, 2013 by michaeltheR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnmarhall Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 have you ever seen a dog when they lie on the road and just think go around me or when they are walking across the road see you coming and think go around me they all have the thai attitude as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
