TLDR : Answer Summary
The post humorously reflects on the remarkable ability of Thai people to sleep in various unusual locations. Comments share amusing anecdotes about people and pets sleeping in unexpected places, highlighting a cultural acceptance of napping in public and even during work. The conversation touches on how such behavior is viewed with sympathy and understanding among locals.

Never mind the dogs - the Thais themselves !!! A friend was explaining to me that sleeping while at work, even in some office jobs, asleeping is an illness, and the work colleagues actually sympathise with the sleeper and wonder what hardships they have in their personal/homelife to cause this sleeping.

I have heard that dogs from another country require pet passports - so do they have to get yearly visa extensions?
