Happy Walking The Dog Day. If We Could Ask A Shelt..
22nd Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Happy Walking the Dog Day! 🐕
If we could ask a shelter dog what the best part of their day is, we’re certain they’d say their walks.
Whether young or old; big or small; four, three or even two-legged, a good walk with our wonderful volunteers from around the world provides our rescued dogs with exercise, enrichment, socialisation and a much-needed break from their enclosures.
When you volunteer at Soi Dog, each walk is unique too. Some dogs will take you on a few laps around the lake...

22nd Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Found in the pouring rain and unable to move properly, Felipe was the picture of despair. 😓
After being hit by a car, we’re not sure how anyone could leave him to suffer in such a way. But sadly, that’s the harsh reality for street dogs like him. 😔
Suffering from pneumonia and tetraparesis, amongst other things, Felipe was in a critical way. But with your help, he was able to receive the life-saving care that was needed. And just look at him today. 🥰
If Felipe was able to thank y...

22nd Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Manima was so broken when she arrived at Soi Dog in 2021, but you helped put the pieces back together, and now she’s ready for a home! https://links.soidog.org/adopt-manima
🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Manima was a known street dog, so it was surprising when she was found locked inside a house. We don’t know how long she was in there for, but with no food and little water, it was long enough for her to become extremely malnourished.
As you can see, Manima’s bones were painfully visible on a...

Today Is Love Your Pet Day, And This Month Is Spay..
21st Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Today is Love Your Pet Day, and this month is Spay and Neuter Awareness Month. How fitting that the two coincide when one of the most loving things we can do for our pets is have them spayed/neutered! 🐕🐈
Spaying/neutering is a simple surgery, but it comes with a wealth of benefits – it helps decrease overpopulation; reduce the risk of certain infections and cancers; and prevent ‘undesirable’ behaviours, such as urine marking, roaming and aggression.
These are greatly beneficial fo...

20th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
A new name, a new family and a new adventure for soi dog Dwayne ❤
Dwayne was brought to Soi Dog as a young puppy after a car accident left him with a serious injury to his hind leg. Coupled with a congenital malformation, he was finding it increasingly difficult to walk. What a sad start to life for this poor boy.
Luckily, Dwayne was spotted by one of our rescue officers who brought him back to the shelter for surgery, safety and a chance at a brighter future.
Eight months later, Dwayne fle...

20th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Risanie was just trying to look after her newborn kittens when she was attacked by a dog and left with devastating injuries. No longer able to care for her babies, the young family were rushed to Soi Dog for help.
With deep wounds on both her legs that had already turned septic, Risanie is now in the hospital fighting for her recovery.
Despite the very best efforts of our veterinary team, Risanie’s kittens sadly didn’t make it. They were just too weak, and so...

Do You Remember Earlysun, And His Desperately Sad ..
18th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Do you remember Earlysun, and his desperately sad story? 😔
As an owned dog, Earlysun never expected to be callously dumped in a makeshift wooden cage. Especially in the early hours of the morning when it would be hours before anyone would find him. 😟
He had clearly been neglected for some time, and was in need of urgent medical care and behavioural support to help him recover from his terribly sad ordeal. But thankfully, this is a tale with a hopeful ending...
With the support of kind a...

17th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Can you imagine the pain she must have been in? 😲 Found with her right leg completely missing, Agustina must have been terrified. 😔
We can’t be sure what happened, but it’s likely that she lost her leg in a snare trap. Something we see far too commonly.
Having such a severe wound, the veterinary team had to perform an urgent amputation soon after Agustina arrived. This poor girl has been through so much, in such a short space of time. 😥
Will you pl...

Hey. I’m 🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Trombone, and I’m writing this from Leeds, UK. Can you help me find a new home here? 🇬🇧 https://links.soidog.org/adopt-trombone-uk
I haven’t always lived in the UK. In fact, I was born many thousands of miles away on the island of Phuket in Thailand. Sadly, I wasn’t welcome in the area I was living there, and someone had tied me up by a rope to stop me wandering around.
Over time, the rope had cut into my neck, leaving me in unbearable pain but ...

Of All The Places For A Little Kitten To Be Hiding..
12th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Of all the places for a little kitten to be hiding, Poptel was found outside of a noodle shop all alone. He was so scared, he was found seeking refuge in the bushes. 😔
Having a wound on his body, and no one to look after him – Poptel was brought to the shelter where he could be cared for. It must have been such a relief to have some food, and a safe and soft place to rest his small head.
As you can see from his photos, Poptel was grown quite a lot since he first arrived. With the loving s...

With her tan colour, short fur and black mask, Panipuri has a typically Thai street dog look about her which, coupled with her often-quie...

Everyone Needs A Helping Hand Sometimes, Especiall..
10th Feb 2023, by Soi Dog Foundation
Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes, especially the smallest of paws. 🐾
Little Lekkie recently arrived feeling very sick. Just a young puppy, she didn't even have her mother with her. It's scary being unwell, let alone when you're that young and on your own. 😥
And it's no wonder she felt so poorly. The veterinary team quickly discovered that Lekkie was suffering from severe anemia, something that can be fatal in young dogs. 😔 She's already received a blood transfusion and is recei...
