Pilotman Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 We bought a puppy from a reliable Bangkok breeder. We live near Rayong, so the breeder arranged for the puppy to come to us by van. Puppy was deposited with the lazy moron of a driver at 11am, due to be delivered to us by 4pm. He then apparently got drunk and fell asleep. He woke up to our phone calls and said he would set off then (2pm) and be with us by 6pm latest. Called again at 5pm, he hadn't moved an inch and the dog was still in the van. I lost my cool big time, told him to stay where he was and I would come to collect the puppy. At that he said, again, that he would set off and be with us at 10am. He finally arrived just gone midnight, gave my wife the puppy basket and backed away from me very rapidly, which was the most sensible thing he had done all day. The puppy had been in the van all that time with no water and no food, despite both being given to the driver to give to the puppy. The poor thing was half dead, she has recovered now and is fine. Lessons learnt; collect from the breeder and secondly. never, ever trust a van driver with anything valuable, including yourself and your family. They are predominately, lazy, unreliable, poor drivers, often drunk or drugged and a total waste of oxygen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puchaiyank Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Sorry to hear about the puppy being mistreated like it was. Be prepared to receive some backlash at having disparaging remarks about one of their precious Thais...makes me laugh when the Thai apologist come to poor Thai people rescue...????

JaiLai Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 If you've been here for some time you should really know better than to trust a random thai person with anything that resembles 'responsibilty'. Least the dog's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Least the dog's ok. Like trusting any delivery service to deliver something when you live in a rural area and only have a postal address. You try to give them GPS coordinates and they say "no hab"! The only reliable service that I have found is Kerry Express. I had a computer part delivered yesterday from JIB. They used some fly by night outfit and after 4 phone calls with Bangkok and having the person who spoke a little English relaying directions to the driver I got him to the temple that is about 1 kilometer away. I then told him to ask anyone "Baan Farang"and 5 minutes later he arrived! GPS should be a requirement for all delivery Companies!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't unquestioningly trust anyone I do not know, anywhere and in any country, probably least of all in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not pure breeds and although I respect the admirable sentiment of providing homes for strays, we wanted this particular breed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
