That's because Muslims don't like dogs. They're considered dirty.

 Thats a border bounce for a visa exemption. So not an actual visa. Visa run refers to going to another country to apply for an actual visa via said country’s Thai embassy or consulate

 You mean a border bounce to get a new Visa Exempt entry not a Visa Run to the Embassy to purchase a new Visa. Correct terminology is key with such issues to get the right information.
