More Chiang Mai Dogs

I thought I should share some more shots of Chiang Mai dogs. I really can't do the whole lot justice...

And I still haven't met the dog who took my shoe, but here are some other dogs with whom I've become a bit acquainted. Perhaps that's a bit of an overstatement. Dogs in Chiang Mai are not quite as sociable as most dogs in the states. In fact this little white guy was snoozing at Wat U Mong and could barely be bothered to lift his head in greeting. Not hard to forgive though, it was one hot day.

These other pups were frolicking next to a
pond that I stumbled on after missing my turn
to the Wat. The guide book indicated that the turn was well marked, but failed to mention that it was only marked in Thai. That fact combined with the fact that it's often difficult to dinstinguish actual roads from alleys delayed my finding the Wat by about an hour. But no loss, just riding along a busy road in Chiang Mai is engaging. Besides, if I'd been able to read Thai I would have missed the pond and the puppies.
