Dog listed on Shopee for ฿55
There are a variety of secondhand products being sold on e-commerce websites like Shopee. Most of the products we expect to see are electronics, bags, or household items.
However, live animals, like pet dogs aren’t common sights across any online shopping platforms. That’s why netizens were surprised when Facebook user Vee Taechasaransirikul listed her dog on Shopee.
Her actions have brought joy and laughter to many netizens, leading many to wonder if the listing was valid.
Let’s see what else netizens had to say about the seller’s initiative.

As a joke, Vee decided to list her doggo on Shopee. However, her post conveyed that she meant business – the seller would reject pre-orders and apply the universal rule of, “first come, first served”.
According to the write-up, the doggo is priced only at ฿55 (~USD2), with no colour options available.
