Sanook are reporting from Chiang Mai that more than 100 dogs have been abandoned by heartless owners. The dogs have been living around two reservoirs in Chiang Mai.
The dogs have been starving and locals are now appealing for help to feed them.
Sank reports that the pack has quickly grown in size after more owners keep dumping their unwanted pets in the car park areas at the Huay Lan and Huay Tone reservoirs in On Tai sub-district of San Kamphaeng district.
Dog lovers have been helping out with food pellets but more help is needed according to one of good Samaritans, Suphatrawee Yoophaet.
She is appealing for people to contribute towards helping the animals live a better life.

The tourists drank a total of 27 bottles of beer and ordered a small selection of food (as we rush for our calculators).
Daily News is reporting that the men also requested to enter the ‘VIP’ section of the bar and asked for four female staff members to serve them with drinks and food throughout the evening.
When presented with the 14,000 baht bar bill they are reported to have been 'shocked' and refused to pay. Witnesses say there was a minor altercation between the men and bar staff.
Local police were called in and 'in...
The police went through 25 outlets seizing fake branded goods - shirts, bags, clothing, glasses, belts and shoes. The items were branded Prada, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Nike and Addidas.
The Thai Government's friendly neighborhood crime-buster, Pol Maj Gen Surachate Hakparnm led his merry band to conduct the surprise raid. He says investigators would now track down the manufacturers, smugglers and even online sellers of the fake items. Surachete says those caught would face full legal action and asset seizure under the country's anti-money laundering laws.
Thailand police has been conducting regular seizures of pirated goods in an attempt to follow-through with promises made...
