THE TRUTH ABOUT DOG MEAT IN SOUTH KOREA
Thank you. Your donations have funded large ads on 11 buses in Seoul, South Korea telling people the truth about dog meat.
The key message you're helping to promote in South Korea is that "meat dogs" have the same feelings as pet dogs. It's a challenge to the myth that meat dogs are different to pet dogs.
The poster reads “Dog! Dogs are not for eating – they are our companions. There is no difference between a ‘pet dog’ and a ‘meat dog’. Ho...

AUGUSTA NEEDS YOUR SPONSORSHIP 16th May 2017, by Soi Dog Foundation
I was only 2 months old and on the brink of death when they found me. I was battling diarrhea and a total loss of appetite.
My name is Augusta, and I surprised the vets by making a full recovery. But I still carry the emotional scars from my painful start in life. Because I'm afraid of people, I'm not ready to be adopted. But I still need to know I'm loved. Will you do something special for me and be my sponsor?

AN UNWANTED DOG NEEDS YOU
No one knows where Groot came from. One day he just showed up hungry at someone’s house. Not only was Groot all alone in the world, but he was also terrorized by another dog in the area. Poor Groot. He was only trying to survive – but it seemed no one cared whether he lived or died.
You can change that. Animal lovers like you are the only reason dogs like Groot get a second chance at life. Can you help fund Groot’s medical care? Please join our Emergency Respons...

5 NEWBORN PUPPIES WILL HAVE YOU TO THANK FOR SAVING THEIR LIVES
A few days ago, these 5 precious puppies were facing death threats. Their mother – only 2 years old – was a feral dog living in the jungle. Young and inexperienced, a fully pregnant Mamasie left the jungle and traveled down the hill into town. Mamasie found what she thought was a safe place – someone’s porch – and gave birth to 5 puppies.
You won’t believe what happened next. The owner of the house wanted to throw the...

40 DOGS URGENTLY NEED YOUR HELP
To donate now, go to http://bit.ly/save_had_yai_dogs
Two weeks ago, government officials rounded up 245 stray dogs in the southern province of Had Yai and nearby island Ko Yo. Their plan? To bring them to a government shelter over 1,300 km away in northeastern Thailand.
Local activists protested. 195 dogs in good health were taken to a foster home in Lam Luk Ka. The Department of Livestock Development has agreed to sterilise them. Unfortunately, 50 dogs were e...

SOMEONE TIED A RUBBER BAND AROUND HIS BODY
Can you help fund Theo’s medical care? We urgently need your support. Simply visit http://bit.ly/save_cats_like_theo
Theo was found with a brutal lesion that wrapped around his lower torso. It’s a case of awful cruelty. Now about 1 year old, someone must have wrapped a thick rubber band around Theo when he was only a small kitten. The band never snapped. Instead, it dug deep into his skin as his body grew painfully around it.

THE PERFECT DANCE PARTNER DOESN’T EXI…OH, WAIT A MINUTE!
Please email inga@soidog.org to adopt Kentaro.
Kentaro loves life. He loves people. He loves to play. And yes, he loves to dance: he has outstanding abilities balancing on his hind legs and shows them off whenever he can. AND he is the fastest dog you’ll ever see on 3 legs.
It’s amazing to see him happily bouncing around, because Kentaro has clearly been through some tough times. He had been hit by a car when he arrived here a...

I SURVIVED A DANGEROUS CAR ACCIDENT – CAN YOU HELP ME?
It happened so fast. I tried to run across the street but didn’t see the car. A terrible scream pierced the air – only later did I realize it came from me. After I landed with a thud on the ground, the shock wore off and excruciating pain began to course through my body.
My name is Saiyai, and I am pleading with you to help dogs like me. We have no one else in the world. Born on the streets, I'm only 8 months old. Already I have suff...
