Upsetting Images At Just A Few Months Old, Glizzar.. 28th Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ At just a few months old, Glizzard was in desperate need of help. Without a safe place to call home, Glizzard was in danger as a young puppy on the streets. One day, he was attacked by another dog causing devastating injuries. 😢
He was found hiding in a pipe with life-threatening wounds. His face was swollen and some of the bone had even been destroyed. We can’t imagine the pain and fear he must have experienced. 😔
Now under the care of our veterinary tea...

Upsetting Images This International Dog Day, Will .. 26th Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ This International Dog Day, will you help to give dogs like Denchan and Herta the fighting chance of a brighter future?
Discarded like rubbish and left to starve to death in a filth-ridden abandoned house, they were desperate for help 💔. Thankfully, they are safe now and looked after, but it will take months for them to make a full recovery. The physical and emotional trauma they have suffered has left deep scars.
Today, to mark International Dog Day, you c...

Happy International Dog Day! 🐕
There are an estimated 900 million dogs in the world, yet it only takes one to change your world.
International Dog Day itself was inspired by a single dog – a senior rescue named Sheltie – with August 26th being the date the founder of the day adopted her and brought her home. The day has since grown into a global movement and celebration of our canine companions.
Below, some of our incredible adopters share how the soi dogs they adopted have changed th...

Poor Haron Was Found Lying In The Middle Of The Ro.. 25th Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Poor Haron was found lying in the middle of the road, unable to move, after being hit by a car. He must have sensed the danger but was helpless to respond. 😢
We dread to think of the countless people who drove past before a compassionate individual chose to stop and offer help. Having sustained a TBI, otherwise known as a traumatic brain injury, Haron would have likely suffered a slow and painful death if it wasn't for their kindness.
Now in the safety of our care, Haron is receiving all of...

Hey There My Name Is Opia, And I'm What You Might .. 24th Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Hey there! 🐶👋 My name is Opia, and I'm what you might call one-of-a-kind. You might even say that you've never seen a dog who looks like me before!
While I might look a little different due to the congenital malformation I have, it’s my personality that I’d like to be known for – much like the rest of us.
Some might say that I'm friendly, smiley, a little stubborn perhaps, and determined. But what I'm most proud of is my strength and bravery. Ever since I was born, the odds have b...

International Blind Dog Day feels like the perfect opportunity to introduce you to Butterboy! https://links.soidog.org/adopt-butterboy
🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Butterboy was found abandoned in a sand bag by the side of the road when he was just a few weeks old. If that wasn’t scary enough for a young pup, he was also unable to see properly due to glaucoma and ulcers in his corneas.
Butterboy’s left eye had to be removed soon after his arrival at the shelter as it was causing him a lot of di...

This Week In The Soidog20years Timeline, We Look B.. 22nd Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
This week in the #SoiDog20Years timeline, we look back just a few years to 2019 🧡

🏥 With the help of a financial grant from the Jeanne Marchig Trust, and assistance with interior furnishings from Fondation Brigitte Bardot, t...

From Shy To A Shining Star. Maggotia Was Found Lim.. 22nd Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
From shy to a shining star 🌟
Maggotia was found limping around the grounds of a temple in Surat Thani. She was a puppy at the time and had a large open wound on her front leg. Fortunately, someone alerted our mobile clinic staff in the area who picked her up and transferred her to our shelter in Phuket.
While Maggotia made a full physical recovery, she struggled with the emotional side of things. This sweet girl was confident in familiar spaces but shy and uncertain when venturing further....

It Broke Our Hearts To See Downy When He First Arr.. 22nd Aug 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
It broke our hearts to see Downy when he first arrived. 💔 He was just skin and bones. 😢 We dread to think how long he must have been suffering for.
The moment he had his first bowl of food upon arrival must have been an immense relief - to no longer feel hungry and in pain.
Downy will now continue to receive all the loving care he needs, including three meals a day, which will help him regain the weight he has lost.
Will you please help dogs like him? No animal deserves to suffer life t...
