Popular Post rooster59 Posted September 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 26, 2020 Koh Samet: Missing dog rescue after being found swimming in the middle of the sea! Image: Daily News Rescue personnel were called yesterday after reports from a ferry that a black dog was swimming 500 meters offshore between Koh Samet and Ban Phe on the mainland. Using a lasso Bamrung jumped into the sea and managed to save the dog and with the help of others on the vessel got him aboard. Not surprisingly the dog was quiet after his exertions but was otherwise uninjured. An appeal then began online to find the owner. Jankaew, 43, responded saying she'd like to see the dog. She was delighted to discover that it was Theng Thong (Gold Bar) who had been missing from her place for four days. She is a coffee seller in the market in Ban Phe and lives one kilometer from the coast so it was a bit of a mystery how her dog had gone down to the sea. She reckoned he might have been chased into the sea by other mutts. She was delighted to have him back and thanked the local rescue personnel for their efforts.

If he was golden I could get with the name but he looks more black to me and given how dogs always got their bits on show I'd have called him black ball .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's good about saving another wild dog to add to the packs roaming Thailand? I say wild as the owner has no idea it was roaming; no idea who it had knocked off their motor bike; where it had defecated; which child it had bitten; what infections it had if chased by other wild dogs. The problems will continue until all owners are made responsible for damage caused by them allowing their 'pets' to roam free. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianthainess Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 These black Labradors love to swim, seen them swim for 45 min without a break, was with the owner who took a rest at a buoy but the dog kept swimming around. One of our local fishing boats rescued a dog swimming 3 klm from shore ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
