Thongdaeng must be the luckiest stray dog in the whole world. Stray dogs near my house come and go. They get reported to the authorities and get shot down for nothing.
But for Thongdaeng, who was rescued by a Palace doctor, has been adopted by His Majesty, the King of Thailand. Can any stray top that?

Thongdaeng, an indigenous Thai dog who can pick and peel coconuts to drink the juice, has been described by the King as intelligent, loyal and always polite.
And, the King has also written a book about her, and the first print of 100,000 sold out within hours, making it a bestseller.
If that's not enough, the King has t-shirts printed with the image of Thongdaeng and her nine puppies, and the t-shirts, at 300 Baht each, are sell like hot cakes too. Proceeds go to charity though. 
It's really wonderful for Thongdaeng to have such an affinity with His Majesty.
