Chicken rice vendor caught on tape stabbing "Whitey" to death.

All soi dogs need to disappear if Thailand is ever going to be anything other than an third world basket case.

I have a special gift for this prick if he ever crossed my path.

You mean the guy who got rid of the mongrel that bit his 7 year old son, and was probably likely to bite other kids- if it hadn't already?

Or the guy who cruelly beat and then in a second attack knifed a tethered dog?

How you know the 7 year old wasn't torturing or abusing the dog?

He could have sorted it probably but decided to kill the dog and in doing so broke the law. Now, as he's unlikely rich or connected he'll be punished.

Pretty low form of life just kills a dog,

Whats wrong with "you people" the animal bit his daughter, I would have done the same thing, family pet or not.......in Thailand, it wold have been useless to complain to the police or the amphur or the owners...........you attack my family, you will pay the ultimate price, or be hurt so bad you wished you had not done what you did.............we should take up a collection and pay his fine.

Oh dear. Take your medication and calm down.

All soi dogs need to go, the sooner the better. 'whitey' don't make me laugh, more like scabby or rabid. Bloke was totally justified in killing the menace, if only a lot more followed his good example.

This is how he gets his chicken for chicken and rice

[bruceamstutz]

The vendor probably had been feeding the dog scraps from his cart. The vendor gave his kid some food and the dog being a soi ma went after the kids food and the dog bit him.......Dogs are like that Mr. Chicken Rice vendor...pay the fine and move on <deleted> head

That dog was a danger to other people.. it already bit a child.

As for the owners saying they were going to 'try' to rehome it after Songkhran.... well there is no proof they would actually do that.

If that dog bit a child in the UK it would be put to sleep (in a more humane way) and the owner would be prosecuted.

In this situation the dogs owners are at fault... leaving their dog tethered with no shelter, food and water on a busy street 24/7.

Thailand needs to change its attitude to these street dogs.. they are so dangerous... not only for biting and attacking people but also for crapping all over the place, making noise, causing traffic accidents by running into the road, destroying refuse bags and spreading litter around the place, killing peoples chickens and livestock, attacking pet dogs and other pets and being a general annoyance.

Its also a sad and hard life for these dogs.. with no treatment for diseases or accidents.. and no proper diet.. just look at how many of them are skinny or covered in mange. They are also subject to cruelty by people who kick and hit them with things.. because they are being a pets. When they get sick or old they suffer long and agonising deaths.

The dangerous fleabag has had justice- he's dead! Animal cruelty offences in Thailand only seem to apply to dogs, I've seen pigs killed in villages stabbed and battered, nobody's bothered though, nor about legal cruel sports, nor the disgusting sights in every market, It just seems to be dogs that gets the soppy brigade upset, yet they have no solution to the soi dog problem.

You are correct.. but this animal cruelty law is very new... and just starting to get a few cases through... so its going to take time to evolve into what it has the potential to be.

I too see so much cruelty to animals here.. from people mistreating their dogs and cats, farmers not getting medical supplies for their livestock or feeding them enough, rooster fighting, etc etc etc.

Then there are the profit making 'hidden' animal abusers.. like the elephant camps, tiger kingdom, monkey school, crocodile show, snake show... they keep the animals, most stolen from the wild, in tiny dirty cages.. often with no adequate shelter and the wrong kind of food.. and again no vet care.

But we are not that much better in the West... our animal cruelty is for the most part hidden from the public.. like the factory farms and medical experiments. Some countries even still allow circuses to use animals in their shows. Lets hope things change in the future. But its going to be very slow.. as everything is here.

It was reported in Thairath today that 34 year-old khao man kai vendor Anont Meksan was sentenced by BKK North Municipal court to 4 months in prison for killing the dog. However the court reduced this by half since he had confessed and cooperated with the police.
Meksan's relatives put up 108K Baht bail which was accepted by the court and he was duly freed.
John Dalley, president of Thailand's Soi Dog Foundation, said he was disappointed with the court's decision which he felt was too soft compared to punishments for similar offences in countries outside Thailand.

Or dogs beaten slowly to death because that method "improves" the taste ?????The actual indifference to human suffering should indicate the attitude to other animals.

Dangerous dogs( by nature or incited by human negligences) need be removed from social environments. No less than for dangerous humans.

In the confusion of animal rights versus human rights it seems the argumental proposal that bad dogs are the product of human neglect and therefore reaction to that is deemed more cruel and inhumane than if a human commits similar acts against another human.

Should it not be considered that dogs and humans are not exclusively the product of social upbringing but that there are dogs and humans that are inherintely just nasty? Therefore strange that in some places the humans are executed. What of the dogs?
