PLEASE CLICK HERE TO HELP DOGS LIKE HIM 12th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
The condition in which they found me was testament to the harsh life I lived on the streets. I am over 11 years of age now and they call me Yotin. My life has been saved by people like you.
I was in deep pain when found by an Animal Rescue Officer from Soi Dog. Several mysterious wounds covered my frail body and a very large tumour had taken over my scrotum, causing severe bleeding and unbearable agony. Who knows what would have become of me without the kind people who are funding my treatment?...

WILL YOU CLICK HERE TO HELP MORE LIKE HIM? 11th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
IMAGINE BEING BORN ON THE STREETS AND LIVING YOUR WHOLE LIFE THERE...
You don’t know what it means to have a home of your own or a special human to care for you. This is the life of millions of street dogs in Thailand. My name is Levin and I am just one of them.
I am over 10 years old now. I was found with half my jaw missing. My head has a slight tremor, no doubt from some past trauma and I was weak and lethargic when I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter. The vets have assessed the injury to m...

YOU ARE THE ONLY HOPE FOR DOGS LIKE VIDI 11th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
Over a year and a half ago, Vidi arrived at our shelter suffering from one of the worst cases of mange our vets have ever dealt with. Her frail body was covered in open, weeping sores and most of her fur had fallen out. She was just a few weeks old.
Thanks to the Soi Dog supporters who have joined our Emergency Response Team, we were able to provide Vidi with the urgent medical treatment she needed and her life was saved. She made a full recovery, has now been adopted, and will leave shortly fo...

I WAS RESCUED FROM TORTURE AND SLAUGHTER
I am a 4½ year old boy and my name is James. Will you please email cristy@soidog.org to ADOPT me?
I was so afraid – I was grabbed from the street and squashed into a small metal cage with many other dogs and taken away on a truck to cross the border. I could not understand why I was in this cage and why these people were doing this to me.
It hurt being in the metal cage with so many other dogs. Where were these people taking me? Why were there so m...

My name is Biggy. Will you please SPONSOR my ongoing care?

WILL YOU HELP BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL HE HAS? 10th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
THEY FOUND ME SHIVERING AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
I was only 3 months old and all alone. They called me Han Solo. I was found by a kind lady and her sister as they drove through driving rain late at night. They spotted me as I darted in to the road, narrowly avoiding being hit by a truck.
Stopping the car, the lady picked me up and was shocked by how cold I felt. I was weak and listless and although obviously terrified, I lacked the energy to bark or fight her. I simply collapsed in her arms.

I am a 3 year old boy called Jasper. I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter nearly 4 years ago, when I was just a small puppy. I had to come here because I was very nearly killed by some people near my territory who didn’t want me around.
Fortunately, somebody told Gill, one of the founders of Soi Dog, and she came to pick me up. Will you now please find it in your heart ...

Auan arrived at our shelter unable to walk. After being hit by a car and seriously injuring both of his hind legs, this 8 year old boy was petrified and in unbearable agony. He was lethargic and weak and refused to eat.
Thanks to the Soi Dog supporters who have joined our Emergency Response Team, we were able to help Auan. Regular support from people like you meant he got the vital medical treatment he needed, followed by physiotherapy and food supplements. Today, he is such a different boy to ...

WHEN I WAS NO LONGER WANTED, THE KICKING BEGAN…
I will never understand what I did wrong – all I wanted was to be loved. I am 9 months old now and recently my owner decided he no longer wanted me. It started with regular kicking and got worse when the savage beatings began. My name is Botus and people like you have saved me from hell.
A neighbour was distraught when she witnessed the abuse I was subjected to. She stole me away from that house of horror but was unable to keep me. She drove ...

Thank you Jean for giving Charlie a chance!
Meanwhile, thousands of other survivors like Charl...

CLICK TO BECOME AN ANGEL FOR DOGS LIKE HIM 8th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
THROWN AWAY BY THE PERSON I LOVED THE MOST
I never had a hope of surviving on the streets. Unlike all the other dogs here at the shelter, I am not a street dog. I don’t know what it is to be born on the streets and to live your life without anywhere to call home. My name is Elone. My story is different - but just as tragic.
I am a spaniel dog and the vets say I clearly had an owner at some point. I will never understand what I did wrong but I was dumped in the street when I was no longer wan...

A MONTHLY GIFT WILL MAKE MIRACLES HAPPEN 8th Jan 2016, by Soi Dog Foundation
Aquila arrived at our shelter battling a severe case of mange that had all but destroyed her. All her fur had fallen out, apart from a few sparse tufts on her back. Weak and emaciated, she struggled to eat.
This innocent girl was just weeks old, but had already experienced a lifetime of suffering. There was only one thing that stood between her and death. YOU.
Thanks to people like you, we were able to start her on the medical treatment she so desperately needed and she has made a wonderful r...

I am Sleepy. Will you please SPONSOR me?
I was only a puppy when I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter with a severe case of mange, which had made all my fur fall out and my skin really itchy.
With treatment, I recovered quickly, but I am an extremely shy dog. If someone gives me their time and patience, I eventually come round and enjoy having cuddles, but it does take a long time to earn my trust.
Can you please SPONSOR me? I may be shy but I promise that if you become my sponsor, I will write ...
