darksidedog Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I have had my dog for 9 years and he is awesome. I didn't buy him. He was a very friendly Soi dog, who lived in my village. He always used to come running when I came home, and occasionally I would give him a few scraps. One day I realised he was seriously unwell and took him to the vet, who said he had Parvo, with a 50% mortality rate. He was in and out of the vet for the next few days and I got a fairly nasty vet bill. Way larger than buying a puppy would have been. He has been my faithful companion ever since. He doesn't bite anyone, ever, and has better manners than many of the people that live here. I had not intended to get a dog, but I am incredibly thankful that I did. He is getting old and a bit podgy now, but he is a blessing to my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the actions of a true dog lover... and this is the attitude that mot Thai and Farange people who say they like the street dogs, should adopt. Well done to you, and lucky for the dog.

Philthyphil Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 A troll rant. But it got me. Dogs are a good judge of character. If you have ever been bitten by one, you probably deserve it. I believe Farang tourists would kill more people in Thailand per year than Soi dogs. An Englishman in hua hin recently killed a cop on a bike,. Another Englishman in a merc killed two women and ran away etc etc etc. i took a stroll in my local park today on the corner of Sukhumvit and Kao Talo. There is a pack there of about 20. All very well behaved, I was thinking if it was back in farangland they would all be trying to steal the food vendors food and running amuck. They are very well behaved the tHai Soi dogs.

Can you imagine the death toll if we let dogs operate heavy machinery? As for deserving to get bit. How exactly does the dog make this assessment while a jogger is running by, or someone is heading to the store to get some noodles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total lack of responsibility by many dog owners. And the do-gooders feeding strays need to be severely fined and made responsible if any of the dogs they feed attack or bite people. That fellow up country needs locking up and his dogs put down. What's your stand on pigeons? I try to stand on pigeons as often as I can. Flying rats. As for dogs like Pitbulls Rotties and other large bred for aggression dogs I see no reason for them to exist. I have always loved GSD's as they are so trainable, you have to train them to be aggressive but even that should be left to the police and army. The rest of the big so called 'macho' dogs work the other way around. The natural aggression will someday come to the front no matter how well trained and controlled.

Thank you for your enlightening post. I shall try to live the rest of my life in Thailand in such a way that does not annoy the hordes of Mangy flea ridden and disease carrying dogs that run wild around the streets. I will make sure I have a timetable that fits in with the local wild street dogs so they are free to do as they wish when they wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The state of the place they are living in wasn't caused by dogs. Dogs don't litter If you want to solve the garbage dump problem getting rid of the dogs isn't the answer. I haven't heard of a dog driving a Mercedes and killing two Thai women in Chiangmai and doing a runner, or ploughing into and killing a policeman on his motorbike in Cha am etc etc etc Come on, how many tourists have been killed by dog attacks in Thailand? None. i think maybe you are barking up the wrong tree. And sorry I don't have Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 dogs don't litter no but they like to pee and poo , rabies is still very prevalent in Thailand, dogs also like to chase cars and motorcycles causing many accidents and bark all night but never mind they are just doing what dogs do.

Your link has no scientific reference, in fact there are no references, or details about how these statistic were collected or even where they came from or who is claiming they published them. Did you just do some quick google search and decided that those pretty graphs must be true? You might want to check 'your facts' are indeed facts to start with.

Feed them, pay for their medical care....open arms....It'd be just like Europe. Point 1. most people who oppose culling dogs do it because a. it doesn't work and b. it is too expensive. What does work is sterilization which is a real long term solution to the problem and works. You will find most people who oppose culling are level headed and logical and support sterilization - Soi Dog Foundation are a good start on this point. Point 2. that fact that you equate humans fleeing from war zones with dogs on the streets says a lot about your mentality.

DrTuner Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Solution is simple and every one knows it: neuter them and in a few years the problem has disappeared. Since that's not being done, I can only draw the conclusion Thais love to be bitten by soi dogs. Hence they should have rottweilers in every corner.

How can it be less expensive to have to catch the things and have a trained veterinarian do the operation then release them right back where they came from to carry on defecating,causing accidents and barking all night...than to just let some hungry Burmese construction workers have a BBQ ?The Burmese solution solves all the issues cheap and effective.

fstarbkk Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I'm a great believer in promoting responsible pet ownership. Unlike the OP I have dedicated countless hours to improve the lives of stray animals, as well as the quality of life of the communities they live in, through mass sterilizations and education. Despite handling hundreds of street dogs during spay/neuter campaigns, I have never been attacked or seriously injured by any of them. Dogs are very good at picking up negative energy, such as fear and hostility and some of them react to it. The irrational, hysterical hatred the OP is spewing in his piece has definite trumpian overtones. Given the chance he might run for office, by promising to build a wall around Thailand to keep all the dogs out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
