Reminds me of my Golden labrador "Odie" Great dogs and not at all like Thai dogs. Very intelligent and can swim. You can see the duck hunter training in her, won't hesistate to jump in the dam and fetch whatever you throw.

I had her injected with something to stop her getting preggers for a year but she is suspiciously getting very fat and her tits are swelling up ominously. I hope not 'cause all the local dogs are the worst kind of mongrels. She has had one litter already with a black lab. Had 5 pups all black. We kept one which died but another was given to a friend at the top of the soi about 800m away. she's now left so we have encouraged her to come home which she does. (She knows we feed her) So we have two labs now. they work well together, better than one in taking care of the Baan. She's not pure bred though. She looks like a lab but slimmer with shorter hair and she has a big ridgeback on her. She hates water as well so there must be some thai dog in her although in this heat they have both been swimming.

Flock me!

The ONE thing I miss from Phuket is my dog, Jack. A beauty of a golden, smart, friendly, didn't like Thia men, and easily house broken.

Unreasonable to move him to an apartment in Bangers so left him with an old GF that he adored.

Now I gotta go find another one... Damn..... Thought I was over it.

Ive got a ridgeback.



also a Bang Gaow



there are 7 dogs at my place, bit wild at times but they love swimming, and are very protective of the property. the family has about 30rai.

A mate of mine has got a Bang Geow. Foking strange animal. Very suspicious, like it will go at you without notice. Aparently the Thais are shit scared of them, thats why my mate got one. I don't like 'em

I think black Labs are better than goldens. Goldens always seem to get fat.

Aquaman

this dog is nasty. he is nice with people cause ive never beaten him or tied him up or done anything that makes a dog crazy. but if he gets into it with another dog he will tear em up, no hold barred. and if anyone come near me or my daughter he is right there growlin. good dogs in my opinion, smart as well. not a frisbee catcher though.

Bung

Yeah, thats how I felt about that dog entirely. Fine with him but the bastard had a thing about my jeans I was wearing at the knee. Obviously into the smell of my Lab bitch. I wasn't sure about telling it to piss of, it wasn't having anything to do with being told to piss off, even the owner coudn't stop it. Normally at that point I would have given it a swift boot to tell it whats what but I really felt it could just turn on me if I did that.

A very different kind of dog than what I have encountered. I guess a bit like rotties, sheperds, healers or pitbulls in that respect.

Aquaman

the ridgeback is looking like he will be the dog to contend with. at three months he is getting into with the others, and doesnt back down. big feet on him.

Bung

My black lab with te ridgeback is a bit different, more like a Tai dog, cunning and sneaky. much more into defending the yard. The golden just barks a couple of times then proceeds to lick people to death.

I think that's coz you don't feking jog.

Nice looking dog Billy Z.

We have got two grey Ridgebacks (lang ahn) and a Bangkaew, also recently purchased a young Rottweiller pup. What is so funny is that the pup has bonded so well with the Bangkaew, it has even started to copy his habits regarding playing in water.

I used to take my rottie down to the beach every night so he could have a sort of swim, he used to love it, then the local council put up a massive great big sign saying 2,000baht fine for taking your dog on the beach

a. boozer

Took our pup down to the beach on Sunday, stood chest deep in the sea without a care in the world!

I don't have golden but want to buy one. I have female st barnard, a male and female rotties, female german shephard, male pom, and female shih tzu. Oh!! still want two goldens... male and female.. among them pom is the oldest one and like to play around within those giants. St. is the one which can eat alot!!!!!!!!. She is now only 4 months, 30kg.

A neighbor of mine had a magnificent male rottie in Phuket. He was a real gentle fellow. Every time I would go out for a swim he would be right there paddling next to me. The problem was as I reached waist depth and started to swim he would gently bite my arm and try to pull me back to the beach. He had the idea I needed saving I figure. Never saw anything like this in my life! Sad part is he disappeared and we found his body up the hill. We suspect he was poisoned by the wanker owners of a Halal restaurant near the house.

^ I had some of my dogs poisoned as well, the guy who did it was stupid enough to brag about it. He never poisoned another dog again.

Haggis

Goldens, great dogs. Had them back in Scotland now have a couple out here. Big boy now 18 months and his new best mate 3 months.

As with all retrievers loves the water and heads strait into the sea as soon as the door's open in the morning.

The latest escapade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chasing lizards and demolishing shrubs.

Norton

Ouch! No dogs of any type even SLAGDOGS!!! Must be having a detrimental effect on beach vendor sales.
