King donates 10 million baht to Hua Hin Dog Shelter

PRACHUAP KHIRI KHAN, 9 April 2014 (NNT) - His Majesty the King yesterday (April 8) donated 10 million baht to the Municipality of Hua Hin in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province, to support its full-cycle management of the stray dog problem.

The money was presented to the municipality in a ceremony held at the Klai Kangwon Palace office in Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan, by Grand Chamberlain Distorn Vajarodaya, who is also deputy secretary general of the Hua Hin Dog Shelter Foundation under the Royal Patronage.

Mr. Nopporn Vudhikul, Mayor of Hua Hin said upon receiving the money that the municipality would spend the royal donation on securing permanent places for stray dogs as well as providing them with sufficient food, necessary vaccinations and care for sick dogs.

He said the project to take care of stray dogs is very useful as Hua Hin is a major tourist site while the project itself has drawn interest from dog lovers who come to visit the Hua Hin Dog Shelter on a constant basis.

He said His Majesty the King intended to make the Hua Hin Dog Shelter a model of full-cycle management of the stray dog problem.

Your Majesty, please, we would be very grateful if you could do something for us also in Isaan.

Stray dogs roaming around, by the thousands, will eat us alive one day.

By the way...What dog is a Thai national breed? My dog, the black soi dog on the picture, is not just very popular...are many identical wondering around everywhere...just identical in every detail. Very smart dogs too. It is a pure breed?

[Frank James]

When dogs of all breeds are allowed to run free and breed randomly, their offspring devolve into a coyote/dingo looking smallish dog like the light brown cur on the right. Such dogs are seen all over the streets of Thailand. Running in packs, they can be quite dangerous to humans.

Thanks and best regards to HRM The King.

Far better things to do with Bt10m than waste it on stray dogs unless the money is put to good use rounding up and getting rid of them.
