We have mentioned on this blog that "soi" means street in Thai and that there are lots of neighborhood dogs that just hang out in the street. The local Thai people take care of them, but these canines spend most of their time frolicking or napping on the sidewalks and in the alleys of Bangkok.
As we discover backstreets and new areas of this bustling city, we have been noticing more dogs, some in packs and some just hanging out by themselves enjoying a nap.

| Many dogs block your path and won't budge, so it's up to the humans to walk around them! There are even some dogs that lay in the street, and the cars and motorbikes just go around them! |
 |
| Some dogs prefer to hang out by themselves on a cozy spot of sidewalk. |
 |
| Some soi dogs like to pose for the camera. |
 |
| I see this guy every day. I have nicknamed him "Soi Sausage" because he's so big and round. He reminds me of those mysterious "Sliding Stones" that move in the desert of Death Valley. I never see him walk, but he is in a different spot each time I see him. |
