Making Friends

In Thailand stray dogs are everywhere and are known as Soi dogs (alley dogs). They are fed but left to roam around and although they mostly keep away from humans they can be a nuisance especially if you are cycling as they like the thrill of the chase.

 

Up here on Monkey Hill just outside Phuket Town they have an uneasy relationship with the macaques that also live there. We saw soi dogs being chased away by the monkeys, but we also saw plenty of tender moments like this where the soi dogs were groomed by the monkeys.
