After Seven Long Years In A Shelter, Ma Luang Finally Found The Perfect Home 9th Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Ma Luang + Minnie = a match made in heaven. 💕
Ma Luang came to the Soi Dog shelter back in 2012 as his life was at risk at the hands of his own family.
It would be more than seven years before he’d find a new – and true – family. However, if Ma Luang could talk, we think he’d say it was worth the wait.
Ma Luang joined his adopter Minnie in Vancouver, Canada, at the beginning of the pandemic. Through months of lockdown and a shared love of food, the pair formed an unbreakable bond...

Don't Forget Them This Holiday Season 9th Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Will you help us be there for vulnerable animals this holiday season? 🐾
This year alone has been full of remarkable achievements. While some are to be celebrated, other milestones are more concerning.
Our hospitals and mobile clinics have been busier this year than ever before, and a record number of animals have needed life-saving treatment and care – sadly, there is still a very long way to go to end the suffering of stray animals.
We are now facing a stark reality; our income is fall...

A Few Months Ago, We Shared The Heart-Breaking Sto.. 8th Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
A few months ago, we shared the heart-breaking story of Akemi 💔.
After his owner passed away, Akemi found himself utterly alone. Desperately seeking comfort, he sought refuge in a building nearby. He was found cowering in a corner, alone and afraid. Poor Akemi had lost all hope.
Thanks to animal lovers like you, he was rescued just in time and brought to the safety of our Sanctuary, where he received medical and loving care 🧡.
As a blind, senior dog, Akemi needed ongoing treatment an...

From My Gut I Adored Him." Remembering Vincent. Vi.. 7th Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
“From my gut I adored him." Remembering Vincent 🌈🐕
Vincent (shelter named Popped/Pop) was one of thousands of dogs rescued from the (now eliminated) dog meat trade in Thailand back in 2014. The ordeal left him physically injured, not to mention emotionally traumatised.
After more than three and a half years at the shelter, Vincent found a home in the USA with his adopter Ginger who saw him, accepted him and loved him exactly as he was.
Joining her when he was 10 years old, Ginger al...

⚠Upsetting images⚠ Meet Vehari, a true example of resilience and bravery ✨.
When this sweet girl was rescued, her left eye was severely infected and her eyeball had completely ruptured. She must have been in agony.
When she arrived at our hospital, Vehari also tested positive for Feline Coronavirus, a highly contagious disease, often life-threatening for sick and injured cats like her 💔. Time was of the essence for her survival.

Heimdall Is Named After One Of The Norse Gods A Bi.. 4th Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Heimdall is named after one of the Norse Gods – a big name for such a small boy, but one he deserves after the strength he’s shown. 💪
10-year-old Heimdall came into our care in May this year. Our rescue officers were collecting a group of dogs for neutering when they came across a small, scruffy, senior boy with a fractured front leg.
According to local reports, he’d been hit by a car some weeks before. The thought of poor Heimdall out there fending for himself in such pain is almost...

Nima The Three-Legged Diva Dog Is Living The Life She Deserves 2nd Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Sometimes, our pets choose us 🥰
Nima (shelter name Elisse) came to the Soi Dog shelter in 2019 after being hit by a car. Her right front leg was severely injured in the accident, and our vets were left with no option but to amputate.
After two years at the shelter and in foster care, tripawd Nima flew to one of our partner rescues in the USA, just before the (now revised) CDC import ban took effect.
Known as something of a diva, Nima has always been a girl who knows what she wants and is...

Upsetting Images Its Hard To Believe Anyone Could .. 1st Nov 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠Upsetting images⚠ It’s hard to believe anyone could inflict such terrible cruelty on a senior gentle dog like Sciliano 😥. Brutally attacked with a lawn mower, Siciliano was found with a deep, open and bleeding wound on his thorax.
Desperate and on the brink of death, Siciliano dragged himself to a nearby house where he found a kind animal lover willing to help him. Our team were immediately alerted and Siciliano was brought to our hospital for urgent medical treatment.

Look who’s all grown up – it’s Wigbert! 🥰
Wigbert is nine months old now, but she was just three months when she was abandoned on the streets earlier this year. Unwanted and alone, our Emergency Response Team found her scrounging through garbage to survive. 💔
Wigbert’s early experiences left her understandably nervous and wary. However, with your support, she’s grown both in size and in confidence since her arrival. It’s been wonderful to see her tail start to wag and the bea...

Little Blind Mae Finally Found Her Way 26th Oct 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Little blind Mae finally found her way 💕
Mae (shelter name Maengern) was brought to us in 2019 with her mum and two sisters.
They were found struggling to survive on the streets. And no wonder – they were all suffering from varying degrees of blindness. Some had lost their vision entirely, including Mae.
Mae spent almost two years at the shelter and a further few months at one of our partner rescues in the USA searching for a home.
We couldn’t understand how such a sweet, smart and r...

Do you remember Nanaija, the road traffic accident victim? He arrived in critical condition, with his right eye bulging from its socket and blood streaming from his nose and mouth. 💔
It’s no exaggeration to say that Nanaija is alive today because of you. Your support provided for the urgent care he needed, including surgery to remove his injured eye and repair his fractured jaw too – and just look at him now! 😻
