24th Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
I CANNOT BE ADOPTED RIGHT NOW. PLEASE HELP ME BY BECOMING MY SPONSOR.
My name is Popular. There was a time when l Iived on a forested hillside above a Phuket beach, until the day I stepped into an illegal pig-snare in the bush. I will never forget the agony and the terror I felt as I fought to free my leg.
The more I struggled, the more painful it got. Eventually I did manage to get free, but my leg was so seriously injured it had to be amputated when I arrived here at Soi Dog.
I am a very n...

I AM SO LONELY HERE...
My name is Chondy. I am a male cat of just over 3 years and have been at the Soi Dog shelter in Phuket, Thailand, for over 3 months now. A kind sponsor has donated some of my flight costs if you can adopt me.
Please email teresa@soidog.org if you think you could offer me a home.
I was rescued from a home where I couldn’t be looked after properly. I am FeLV positive. This means I have the feline leukemia virus. This does not mean I will not make a good pet though - far...

WILL YOU HELP ABANDONED PUPS LIKE ME?
I was only a few weeks old when my owner decided it was too much effort to care for me. I had developed a serious problem with one of my eyes and I was in excruciating pain. I desperately needed medical care but my owner simply dumped me in a temple.
My name is Marvella and I am lucky to be alive today. Abandoned puppies like me would simply die if we didn’t have people like you. Soi Dog cannot help us without you.

23rd Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
I CANNOT BE ADOPTED RIGHT NOW BUT YOU CAN HELP ME BY BECOMING MY SPONSOR
I was living peacefully on the streets of Phuket when some locals wanted to get rid of me. My name is Aro.
A kind man brought me to Soi Dog after he saw me being chased and overheard people say there were plans to poison me.
Sadly, my early years and experiences on the streets have made me a bit suspicious and I do not trust people. I can now live in safety here at the shelter but for this I need YOU.
Will you please ...

CLICK HERE TO SAVE MORE DOGS LIKE DUMBO
23rd Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
Imagine being permanently tied up on a chain, in the blazing heat of tropical sunshine, with no access to shade or water. My name is Dumbo; this is what happened to me.
I was chained to a pole in front of my owner’s house for months on end. Day after day, the fiery Thai sun beat down on me. I would gaze longingly at a leafy tree in the garden but it was just out of my reach – the chain that was permanently attached to me was too short to reach it.
I had a horrifically infected wound around...

22nd Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
The man and his wife thought I was a rat at first. They were in the car on their way home from the market when I ran out in front of them. I was barely recognisable as a cat. I was a pitiful sight, in desperate need of medical treatment. They stopped the car and picked me up.
My name is Elvin and I am a boy of only 5 months old. Born on the streets with nobody to care for me, it wasn’t long before life began to take its toll. I developed serious skin problems and started to lose all my fur. P...

100,000 STERILISATIONS!
This week fittingly saw our longest serving vet, Dr. Su, perform the 100,000th spay/neuter prcoedure carried out by Soi Dog Foundation since it first started on the island of Phuket.
In our first full year back in 2004, founders Margot, John and Gill managed to sterilise just over 1,400 dogs, mostly at their own expense, when they were the only dog catchers and nurses. Over 2,800 dogs and cats were sterilised in November alone this year, with 4 teams operating in separ...

22nd Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
PLEASE SPONSOR ME TO HELP WITH MY ONGOING CARE...
My name is Collie and I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter because I’d been dumped by my owners and couldn’t survive on my own. I suffer from epilepsy, which causes me to have things called seizures.
Because I am a collie cross, I may have suffered some neurological damage due to an inappropriate worming injection when I was little.
I am a very sweet-natured boy but I do need ongoing medical care. Did you know that the biggest way you can he...

NEVER SAY NEVER...
Shakey Joy spent over 10 years at our shelter after being dumped over the fence in early 2005. A bout of distemper had left her with a permanent shake, hence her name.
For the longest time, it looked like Shakey Joy would spend the rest of her days at our shelter, but everything changed the day Cynthia in Minnesota, USA, laid eyes on her.
Here's Joy today, out for a walk in her adopted country. She has taught us to never say never... Thank you Cynthia for giving this specia...

END THE SUFFERING FOR DOGS LIKE HER
21st Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
I was at death’s door when they found me. My name is Diggory. I am only about a year old, but life on the streets has not been kind.
Having never had a human to love me or a place to call home, it wasn’t long before I fell ill. Suffering from blood parasites, I gradually became weaker and more emaciated. Anaemia set in and I struggled to eat. I would not be alive today without people like you.
I was found by an Animal Rescue Officer from Soi Dog in the course of his duties. He was shocked...

Earlier this year, Alunda arrived at our shelter having been horrifically attacked. He was left with a deep wound on his side, reportedly from where a group of drunk people had attacked him late at night.
Thanks to people like you, we were able to provide Alunda with vital, life-saving medical treatment and he went on to make a great recovery.
We recently said goodbye to Alunda as he left us for his forever home in Maryland in the US, where he has been adopted by Kendra and re-named Louie. Th...

I am only 2 years of age and have already suffered more than any animal should in a lifetime. I was hit by a car as I desperately tried to find food on the streets that have been the only home I’ve ever known. My name is Ficus.
A kind lady who saw the accident happen picked me up and took me straight to a nearby clinic, from where I was transferred to the Soi Dog shelter. This is where people like you saved my life. I was seriously injured, having fractured both my shoulders and was in urgent...

DESTINED TO BE SKINNED ALIVE - BUT YOU SAVED MACK...
Mack was snatched from the streets of northern Thailand and loaded on to a truck with hundreds of other stolen dogs. They were all destined for a primitive slaughterhouse in Vietnam, where they would be tortured and killed.
This is the reality of the Asian dog meat trade.
Fortunately for Mack and the hundreds of other innocent dogs with him, people like you had other ideas. The compassionate animal lovers who have joined our fight against t...

I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter a few years ago with my 4 babies. We had been dumped on the street and a bad man nearby was threatening to kill us. A kind person who wanted to protect us brought us to the shelter.
My puppies have been adopted but I am still very nervous of people. I will only allow certain long-term volunteers to stroke me. Will you please help with my ongoing care by becoming my SPONSOR?

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 ...

Thanks to Soi Dog supporters, the vets here were able to save my eye, but I am still very scared.
It will take some time for me to trust humans again...

These Rescued Dogs Need You - Now More Than Ever
19th Dec 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
You may know that YOUR support has meant thousands of traumatised dogs could be rescued from Asia’s barbaric dog meat trade.
You may be aware that YOUR donations enabled purpose-built shelters to be constructed, housing all these dogs while they recover from their ordeal. You have probably heard that some of these dogs have gone on to be adopted by compassionate animal lovers like you, all over the world.
But DID YOU REALISE that those who remain behind are still not safe? Without you, thei...
