Khaen Dong (Thai: แคนดง, pronounced [kʰɛ̄ːn dōŋ]) is a district (amphoe) in the northern part of Buriram Province, northeastern Thailand.
Neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise) Satuek, Ban Dan and Khu Mueang of Buriram Province and Chumphon Buri of Surin Province.
The minor district (king amphoe) was established on 1 July 1997, when it was split off from Satuek district.
Following a decision of the Thai government on 15 May 2007, all 81 minor districts were upgraded to full districts. With the publishing in the Royal Gazette on August 24 the upgrade became official.
The district is divided into four sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 61 villages (muban). Khaen Dong is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Khaen Dong. There are also four tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
