Dirty, noisy little pests

 

The most common diseases associated with dogs that can cause human illness are:
  • Campylobacteriosis (Campylobacter spp.) ...
  • Dog Tapeworm (Dipylidium caninum) ...
  • Hookworm (Zoonotic) (Ancylostoma caninum, Ancylostoma braziliense, Uncinaria stenocephala) ...
  • Rabies. ...
  • Roundworm (Toxocara spp.) ...
  • Brucellosis (Brucella spp.)

 

I believe catching Brucellosis is more likely in Oz.

The Yuta Family Instagram account tells the visual story of a family of seven Chihuahuas bossed around by a fluffy cat. It made headlines earlier this year and has become a world-famous pet Instagram account.

 

As famous as that Thai air hostess with the photo-shopped Facebook pics?  :coffee1:

Yeap there was a news story by Chandrakesem University about this stall behind the campus that collects and reuse all the straws after use by the customers simply by washing them in the basin after use. 

 

Isn't that the same as collecting and washing the utensils for reuse? unless they don't wash them properly enough.

 

The fastest way for diseases to spread is actually money. who knows how many times money changes hands in a day and who handles it. 

I like the way some people hold their money with their teeth while they put things in bags :sick:

I have a house dog Never goes out gets baths regularly has his shots all the time when needed 

This is not a dog with a health threat to humans Here is a quote for Web MD

 

"Dogs and the health benefits for children. Not only do children who grow up with pets have less risk of allergies and asthma, many also learn responsibility, compassion, and empathy from having a dog or cat. Unlike parents or teachers, pets are never critical and don't give orders. "

 

 

 

If the kids have not been killed by one of these filthy beasts first of course.

Not being a fan of filthy dangerous animals does not mean I hate them, I don't eat them either

 

Fatal dog attacks in the United States are a small percentage of the relatively common occurrences of dog bites. At least 4.5 – 4.7 million Americans are bitten by dogs every year, and according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 20 to 30 of these bites result in death.[1][2]

Now i understand you. Had a real nasty experience. 

 

I am a dog lover. My family had dogs around the house all the time. I have 2 myself now. 

 

Hope u can overcome your fears one day. 

I don't fear them but not keen on their constant barking, shitting and pissing in the soi, and certainly would not want to sit next to one of the filthy beasts in a restaurant anymore than i would a rat.

Me neither. Soi Dogs r a big problem. 

 

Pet owners are responsible for the cleanliness and health of others when they bring their pets out into the public. Not everyone wants to come into contact with the animal saliva, poo or fur just like how humans r not ok with touching each other for no reason at all. 

The problem is not that the spoon is used by a dog. That can easily be cleaned.
The problem is that dogs are not allowed in Swensens. Simply means that, again, just because you are famous you can do what you want in Thailand.
That´s the image Swensens would consider to drop.

I have been to Europe...............very nice it was too.

Some of the countries visited were; Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, UK, Portugal, Belgium, Netherlands and Austria, none of which allow dogs or any pets for that matter (except guide dogs) into indoor restaurants. The simple reason for this rule is "Hygiene" and it has got nothing to do with whether Bruno has brushed, gargled and flossed his mouth twice a day since conception. Dogs are covered in a fur coat which is a natural habitat for all kinds of bacteria and undesirable little insects etc.

As for France and Spain not sure what kind of restaurants you're referring to but I suspect it is the greasy Joe type cafes and not proper respectable restaurants.

Speculation is not fact my friend I have witnessed dogs in good restaurants and bistros in both countries. It seems your just a dog hater Sure soi dogs are not very clean .

Strange what you say If that was the case then  120 million people in the United States would become deathly ill since they are in contact with their dogs on a daily bases as the dog hovers around the Kitchen  while someone cooks or is under the table waiting for morsels while they eat .

Your argument is not based on fact rather is based on a knee jerk reaction to your emotions about dogs.

Please get your facts straight before you make a comment I want facts not emotion If those four legged creates where as dirty as you say  then people would not have them as pets 

Its that simple

Sorry your post is completely nonsensical, how do you come to the conclusion that I am a dog hater? what am I arguing or speculating about? I stated a fact - good restaurants do not allow dogs based on hygiene........its really that simple. Yes I concede that the majority of pet dogs are probably clean but it's the minority that the restaurant has to guard against. As for the EU regulation this states that dogs are not allowed in to any area where food is prepared...........

 

The legislation, which makes the provisions relating to dogs in food premises is contained in Regulations (EC) No 852/2004, Annex II, Chapter IX – Provisions applicable to foodstuffs (4) as below:

Adequate procedures are to be in place to control pests. Adequate procedures are also to be in place to prevent domestic animals from having access to places where food is prepared, handled or stored (or, where the competent authority so permits in special cases, to prevent such access from resulting in contamination).

Nuff said on this subject now.

Yes I agree where food is prepared Its called a kitchen  and dogs are not allowed in those areas It does not prohibit them from going into the dinning area

where people sit 

Anyways I have a dog who lives with my wife and I and he can eat off my plate any day . He is cleaner then some people I know

Dogs eat their own poop.  'Nuff said.  

 

 

Not their own poop, but from a cow or horse yes...my neighbours dog likes to eat out of the diapers of their maid.

 

After eating they like to lick their balls and then come to kiss the master.

She was just letting the puny thing check if the ice cream was poisoned.

The people's idiocy is endless
