BANGKOK, Thailand – The scene unfolded like an absurd cartoon. A specially trained “Canine Terminator” had been dispatched to an island off the coast of Thailand to carry out an annual rite. Rather than set up veterinary clinic to spay the island’s female population, the animals were allowed to breed out of control by the authorities.
This may well have been part of the Buddhist tradition to be in harmony with nature, but it led to something horrific. Most of the female puppies on the island were drowned, or tossed in the garbage or dumped on the side of the road to die.
And now, those who had survived could not outrun the doggie “Canine Terminator.”
The Terminator – really a slightly built 50-ish Thai man – drove around the streets of the island, some paved and others dirt, on a motorcycle. There was a sidecar attached to the motorcycle. The sidecar had a large platform welded to it and a vertical cage that climbed to a height of eight feet attached to the platform.

Every time he found a mangy dog, he would stop the motorcycle, get off and poke the dog with a very long pole. At the end of the pole was a sharp needle with poison on it. The dogs would die within a few minutes. Then the Canine Terminator would pick up the dog and toss it over the top of the cage, as if he were attempting a basketball free throw.
“Imagine how depressing? Driving around all day and killing dogs,” Swedish Internet developer Anna Stenstrom told WorldNetDaily from her vacation villa on the Thai island.
By the end of the day, the Canine Terminator had killed so many dogs that his cage was literally overflowing. When he made a sharp turn around the main corner in town, the motorcycle tipped over from the weight of all the dogs. The man lay motionless, trapped under a giant mountain of dead dog carcasses like an erstwhile Egyptian Pharaoh. A crowd of locals and foreigners congregated around the fallen man, laughing hysterically – mainly with shock.
Quite ironically, an old, smelly brown dog passed by the giant pile, lifted up its leg and urinated on the Canine Terminator.
While the island served as home to filming of Leonardo DiCaprio’s hit film “The Beach” and hosts the world famous “Full Moon Party,” there is sadly not a single veterinarian on the island.
“We need a vet, to be sure. I wish the government would appropriate money for one,” said one Thai policeman stationed on the island.
“I am hoping we can get some volunteers from American Veterinary Schools who might come and open up a clinic here for an internship or course credit. I don’t know much about being a vet, but I do know that we are desperately in need of one. Sometimes I cry when I see how the puppies are treated. I already have five of them at home!”
