This World Animal Road Accident Awareness Day, we have an incredible recovery to share with you – little Lookphong 😍

Two Legs, One Indomitable Spirit 💪 5th Oct 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Two legs, one indomitable spirit 💪
In our 20-year history, few stories have captured the hearts of our supporters or the resilience of the canine spirit quite like Amira’s.
Born without front legs and left to languish on the streets for nine long years before being shot in the head, it’s hard to imagine the sheer amount of suffering Amira experienced.
But somehow, despite it all, her tail never stopped wagging and her determination never wavered.
After a remarkable recovery, Amira ...

Happy World Animal Day. The Theme For This Years D.. 4th Oct 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Happy World Animal Day 🐶🌎️🐱
The theme for this year’s day is “Great or small, love them all”
The size of an animal doesn’t determine their need or their worth. You can be the biggest, toughest street dog and still need care when you’re injured. And you can be the tiniest of homeless kittens and still deserve to be seen.
When you support Soi Dog Foundation, you are showing love to companion animals of all sizes, from the smallest kittens like Bualoiy to the biggest dogs l...

Things are looking up for Downy 🙌
It broke our hearts – and yours – to see Downy when he first arrived 😞💔 He was just skin and bones, having been chained up in an abandoned house and left to starve.
Weak and malnourished, his body had started to fail him. He had a heart murmur, a bladder infection and a tick infestation, to name just a few conditions.
But you helped counter the cruelty Downy experienced. Your support provided him with safety, treatment, nourishment and love. As ...

Ask The Carers! 1st Oct 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Shelter carers Win and Ratt are ready for your questions!

Each of our carers are assigned to an individual enclosure – known as a ‘run’ – where they’re responsible for anywhere between 15 and 30 dogs, forming bonds and providing companionship to all of them while they await adoption.

One Last Look Back At 2022 Soidog20years. By The C.. 30th Sep 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
One last look back at 2022 #SoiDog20Years 🧡
By the close of the year, the number of animals adopted to new homes had fallen compared to previous years to 528 on account of rising travel costs, the global economic crisis and the removal of Canada as a destination for our adopted dogs.
The number of animals under the care of Soi Dog, meanwhile, had risen to almost 1,800 – the highest in our 20-year history.
…And with that, our timeline comes to an end! Thank you for joining us as we loo...

Dinso has come a long way since we first met him 💕🐶 . Generous animal lovers like you helped to ensure Dinso rece...

Her name is Platinum, but her heart is pure gold 💛 https://www.soidog.org/adopt/platinum-3265
Platinum appeared in an unfamiliar neighbourhood at the start of the year. She was lost and hurt. It seems the thunderous New Year’s Eve fireworks had spooked her and, in her panic, she'd run into the road and been hit by a car.
Thankfully, she was rushed to our hospital where she received urgent care and made a full recovery.
With her unique breed and sweet, intelligent nature, it's hard not ...

Hello, my name is Jewel and today it’s my birthday! 🎉
Who would have thought I’d still be here today? Just a couple of years ago, I was struggling to survive on the streets. I had a broken leg and tail and no hope left. I was terrified and hungry.
When the Soi Dog Rescue Team found me, my eyes lit up – I knew I was safe 🧡.
Today, two years later, I am absolutely thriving. As a disabled dog, I have very special needs and quirks that make me one-of-a-kind. I am loving, energetic, ...

Lori’s come a long way! https://links.soidog.org/adopt-lori
We first met 🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Lori in July 2021. She was living alone at a construction site at the time with a large open wound on her back.
Lori needed treatment, but sadly there was no one around to care – the construction workers having vacated the site some time before. Fortunately, a passerby noticed her and called us for help.
The wound was not only large – measuring 13cm by 13cm – it was also infested with doz...

In the #SoiDog20Years timeline, we’re now up to 2022 🧡
The fight against the dog and cat meat trade in Asia ramped up a notch in June 2022 as we launched our ‘Last Country on Earth’ campaign.
It began with the announcement of a partnership with Philippines-based Animal Kingdom Foundation (AKF) to tackle the illegal trade in the country.
