Jake (Thai Ridgeback from Garage Bar) Missing in Phnom Penh, Cambodia; $250 Reward

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO.

He is thinner but uninjured, no broken leg or anything.

Today is Brunt's birthday, so a fine gift for him.
Wow, that is the best news I've heard in 2018!!! I was hoping for the best, and preparing for the worst. Not too many dogs could be on the streets of Phnom Penh for days and then come back ok. Jake is a legend.

And happy birthday to Brunt.

I heard that a dog thief managed to grab Jake and get him on his motorbike...
Spoiler:
... He might actually pull through, LoL! ;)

Glad all's well. I've seen Jake a few times, quite a character.

Well done, best birthday ever I'm sure.

Not really. Many love it in the Khmer curry (soup) as well.

Have waited with this reply until the dog had been found.....

Rhodesian Ridgebacks and Thai Ridgebacks aren't related - they just both have a stripe of hair along their spines that faces the opposite way to their other hair.

Thai ridgebacks are more closely related to hell spawn.
