Popular Post thailiketoo Posted May 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) Soi dog pup. Get the animal neutered. Loyal, loving, kinda smart. Guards the house against snakes, scorpions, pigeons, rats and so on. Ours was born in a ditch in the mud. She still likes dirt a bit too much. A few problems growing up. Wife works in the garden and the dog wants to help. She has got the digging part down pat but not the when and where part. I wanted a guard dog and not a friendly puppy so didn't socialize the dog much. She has bonded to my wife and I and our neighbors but that's it. We have a large dog house that she likes to go in when we have company. She isn't a friendly dog and is not allowed to run free outside of the house and walled grounds. I walk her twice a day and she poops in the jungle. She has had a very good life in comparison to the average soi dog and looks it. Fed and bathed and brushed they are very nice looking dogs. Bath once a week and Bayer advocate monthly. She is fast and likes to run. She is a very expressive dog with her ears and tail and many different vocalizations besides the normal bark. She has a distinctive danger bark for snakes and such that is very different than the, we have company bark. She is a ridgeback and when her hackles go up that means lookout, something is not right. A dog is a big responsibility. She depends on us for a lot of things and we depend on her. It is a symbiotic relationship. She has a job to guard the homestead and we have an obligation take care of her food and health and a sense of belonging. She has never barked or howled at night for no reason in concert with other dogs. She has short hair and likes the hot weather.

umbanda Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) Pit bull???? Any dog fitted for fight, guard, or wild hunting, it is dangerous close to small pets and children. But looks like you can get a small cat and will do the job very well.... http://youtu.be/bbEnGoqFnko Edited May 22, 2014 by umbanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banglay Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) All dogs big or small ,soi or pedigree have the potential to be dangerous , A dog if left to there own devices will eventually turn feral by necessity (hunger and the need to survive the main reasons) . The dogs owner is probably 85% responsible for how a puppy will develop as a adult ,15 % is breed traits already programed into is genetics. In my time as responsible dog owner I've owned mutts,German shepherds ,collies, Spaniels ,Great Danes the list goes on . I have at the moment a 35kgs Pitbull and he is without question the most loving dog I have owned . His affections knows no limits and he loves strangers to the detriment of my house security ....but saying that once he know I am a sleep or I am relaxing the whole ball game changes ..he becomes my guardian and I know he would died rather than anything happen to me or my family ... PITBULLS are a excellent breed as a family dog if they are well trained in a relaxed but firm manner , never try and bully a pitbull they are they are too strong willed and intelligent and will never respect you ....A respectful Pitbull will love you as its pack leader until the day one of you dies .

It is true that the dog behavior depends a lot how you takes care, and training..but pit bulls are mainly fight dogs because its natural instincts, and can react violently when triggers.....also... that may never happens....But....why take the chances?

Labradors and Spaniels have the best combination of character...... http://youtu.be/bbEnGoqFnko I witnessed many similar situations with pitbulls How come before the Media and the criminal element demonised the pitbull it was known ask the "NANNY DOG" ???? and check out the US Kennel club temperament ratings for the Pitbull you'll find it right up there with the Golden Retriever.... Studies HAVE proven that the Dachshund may be the most AGGRESSIVE, closely follow by the Chihuahua. This doesn't make them the most DANGEROUS, because of their size and bite strength.. But they do bite a lot more people !! but cuddly ikkle dogs do not make news....If a Dachshund or Chichuahua weighed 35kgs it might be another story. I did a huge amount of research before I decided on a Pitbull ..information and education is a necessity before buying any dog not just a Pitbull ..I have only ever been biten by (1) a Jack Russell. a small dog..(2).a Spaniel a family pet . (3). Kairn terrier small dog ...... . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeonjake Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 in my view it all depends what you want in the dog, when i was in the uk in lincolnshire i allways had lurchers and jack russells, becouse i lamped at night in the fields and worked the hedges during the day, even with lurchers they come in different crosses, some like grayhound/collie... some grayhound, collie , whipit,,, some with a touch of saluki for the stamina,great dogs as part of a family too, but that was me for what i needed a dog to do, a shooting man whould have a spanial or labradoor,, retriever, a little old lady would want a poodle dont take a lot of looking after, they dont malt there hair, or a little yorkie they can just let in the garden for exersize,, like i said at the start, its all down to what you want ,,, in your situation,, you wouldnt have a greatdane in a small flat,,lol now in thailand ive got a medium sized dog called docky, i had his father too before a snake got him, he did make it home and died in my wifes arms,,she was heart brocken, as i was too, but the lady up the road said our blacky had seen to her bitch and did we want young blacky,,,/? i was round there like a shot,,,lol jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyscot Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Right now we've a golden retriever, but although we love him, don't think well have another of the same here in Thailand, having a nightmare keeping the tics off him, he's too friendly for his own good, anytime the village dogs are passing by the front gate he's up poking his nose thru and trying to get friendly with these dogs, then the cycle of the tics start again,, without doubt the best dog I've had and we've had a few back home from Newfoundland landseers to Samoyeds to Pomeranians, boxers and collies,, but the best one combining friendliness, devotion, smart and playful would have been our male black flatcoat retriever,, but can't say I'd have one over here in Los, don't think it'd do too well with us, especially since we're moving to house in the countryside soon where there's more dogs around the area.. I'd be interested to know if a boxer dog would fare better in these environments? better than our golden I'd guess,,, Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyscot Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Haha, just see your post re the retrievers,, I'd fully agree with you both,,, but different situations vary, and the wife won't allow ours to stay indoors even prior to getting the tics,, maybe time to show her who's really boss ,,, hehe Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes they leave them to run on their property and when walking passed the dogs charge at the gate to you, showing teeth, growling fiercely and appear ready to tear your head off if they get out. Quite frightening. I have also seen farangs walking with these pit bulls on leads and everyone gives them a wide berth. In England pit bulls were the status symbols of the thugs, council estate and trailer park trash type people.

Why would anyone have another breed of dog in Thailand besides trying to help with the large problem with dogs here. It boggles my mind. I can see wanting a dog. I can see getting and neutering a soi dog or 10 soi dogs. My ten dog pack can take care of any single dog of another breed anyway. (just kidding I only have one dog) Fatalities reported in USA since 2005 40 to 50% pit bulls. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_dog_attacks_in_the_United_States#Fatalities_reported_in_2014 Too many deaths. Too many problems in the USA. Can you imagine what would happen if pit bulls were introduced into the soi dog population to any large extent?

He said all dogs, soi and pedigree.!!! Thai Bangkaew, best dogs ever but more likely to bite a stranger than a pitbull is In Thailand? Well yes. How many pit bulls here (thank god). Equal amounts of bangkaews and pit bulls? I'll take my chances with the bangkaews. Although my point is the same with the bangkaews and pit bulls. First adopt the soi dogs out of existence. Soi dogs are nice animals. It is like a small friendly handicapped person. Not too smart but loyal to a fault and loving to the max. They can't do everything a human can do but they try. They can't talk but they try, poor things they really do try. I thought the OP was asking what is the best breed for Thailand? No?
