30th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
What keeps our volunteers coming back to Soi Dog time and time again? We’ll let returning volunteer Angel from Singapore 🇸🇬 answer that one!
"We came to Thailand on our first trip after Covid, and the lovely dogs and the bonds I’ve grown for them has made me keep coming back.
As a well-travelled Asian, Soi Dog has to be the most beautiful shelter I’ve ever had the privilege to spend my time in. The carers and staff look after the animals here like their children, and everyone here ...

2015 continued #SoiDog20Years 🧡

29th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Do you remember HinNgam? She was found living on a beach desperately trying to seek shelter.
We’re not sure what happened to this sweet girl, but she must have been through quite the ordeal as she was missing part of her leg. 😲 With the wound being so severe, our veterinary team had to perform surgery to remove the rest of the leg, which helped to prevent a life-threatening infection.
With your help, HinNgam has been able to make a full recovery. She might have lost her leg, but it doesn...

27th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
In the #SoiDog20Years timeline, we’re now up to 2015 🧡
2015 proved to be a very busy year. The dog meat trade in Thailand was over, but the mission to help the animals rescued from it had just begun.
Soi Dog’s mission to end the suffering took more giant steps forward with the launch of the international partner rescue programme. Dogs who had been rescued from the meat trade were now joining the programme established to help find them new homes in the United States and Canada.

Joby Came To Us With Not One, But Two Injured Legs..
27th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Joby came to us with not one, but two injured legs. 😥 Her left hind leg had an open wound and her left front leg had muscle atrophy. She must have been in so much pain. 😔 Being a stray cat, we’ll never know how she sustained such injuries.
Due to the extent of the muscle wastage on her front leg, it sadly couldn’t be saved despite the best efforts of our veterinary team. The damage was just too far gone to be repaired.
Being the strong and brave girl she is, Joby is learning to adj...

26th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Can you believe this sweet boy has been waiting for his forever home for two years?😥 https://www.soidog.org/adopt/julley-2892
Julley was just two months old when he was hit by a car. Young, vulnerable and alone, all he could do was limp along the road, hoping someone would notice. By a stroke of luck, one of our mobile clinic teams was stationed in the area at the time. They spotted him and transferred him to our shelter for treatment which included corrective surgery, a cast and a splint.

Isn't Her Transformation Incredible?
26th Jul 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Rimlaynoi was on the brink of death when she was found, clearly having been neglected for some time and having almost given up all hope. 😥
After months of intensive recovery, which wouldn't have been possible without you, Rimlaynoi's entire life has been transformed.
Sadly, despite her incredible transformation, her front left leg couldn't be saved, but she does have a second chance - a chance that you have helped to give her.
If you’d like to help more dogs like Rimlaynoi find hope on...

Stick your tongue out if your name’s Veneer and you’re 🌟Dog of the Week🌟! https://links.soidog.org/adopt-veneer
Veneer has been at the Soi Dog shelter for just over year now, arriving not as a street dog but as a pet. Unfortunately, his owner hadn’t cared for him the way an owner should. When Veneer was attacked by another dog, they let him suffer without treatment. The result was a severely injured jaw.
In a stroke of luck, there was a Soi Dog mobile team in Veneer’s neighbourho...

⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ It’s hard to imagine what the fate of dogs like Ayak would be if it weren't for our Emergency Response Team.
After receiving an urgent call about a dog that had been stabbed on a nearby island, our team lost no time in coordinating the rescue. Once Ayak was safely picked up and on the boat, the team rushed to our hospital where he could start to receive treatment.
Ayak will now receive the ongoing treatment he needs. We hope that with time, he will be able to ...

With your help, NongPom's life was turned around, transitioning from those unhappy days to a life filled with joy and love. He now relishes the company of other small dogs and receives the attention he had been missing. 🥰
