Dog Nappers Caught in Thailand, Why is this Big News?

If you have lived here in Thailand for a little while and especially in rural areas, you would have heard of the “bucket truck.” Photo courtesy of http://memock.wordpress.com If you don’t know what this is, it is simply a truck that collects dogs while giving the owners buckets in return. My mate over at Life in Rural Thailand has written about it before, having seen the bucket truck many times and also has a short video of a dog truck in Laos.
