CLICK TO JOIN THE CARE FOR CATS CLUB
28th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
I WAS BATTERED AND BRUISED WHEN THEY FOUND ME
I am a boy called Barnum. I was in unbearable agony when I was found. Having been attacked by another cat, I was covered in bite wounds and was struggling to use one of my back legs.
My face and legs bore wounds which had become very badly infected. Left untreated for so long, I was at serious risk of septicaemia and a slow and painful death. I am only 2 years old.
The vets here at the Soi Dog shelter have also said I am emaciated and weak, with a...

RAYMOND NEEDS YOU. PLEASE SPONSOR HIM.
28th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
October has been made Sponsorship Month here at Soi Dog. My name is Raymond and I want to let you know about one of the biggest ways you can help dogs like me who cannot be adopted - by joining the Sponsor Club.
I was found with a horrific wound on my head that had become infected and was full of maggots. I think this wound was caused by a horrible person, but I can’t tell you for sure as I am blind.
What happened to me has left me very nervous and this means I cannot be adopted.
Will YOU...

28th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
BUDS WAS LEFT FOR DEAD AFTER BEING HIT BY A CAR
Thankfully, he was found by a kind-hearted person who brought him to our shelter. Because of other kind-hearted people like YOU, we were able to treat Buds and he made a full recovery.
After just 5 months at our shelter, little Buds struck gold when a lady called Diane in England got in touch to say she wanted to adopt him. Check out the picture on the right - Buds has taken over the couch in Diane's home!

CLICK TO HELP A NERVOUS DOG LIKE TWINNIE
27th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
TWINNIE IS UNABLE TO BE ADOPTED AT THIS TIME
Will you please be a SPONSOR for him?
My name is Twinnie and I was dumped at the Soi Dog shelter as a very scared puppy with my sister Twinnsie almost 7 years ago now. It took me a long time to trust the staff here, and I am still very scared of people I don’t know.
When people are patient with me and spend some time in my run, I become a little more trusting and don’t mind the occasional pat and cuddle and maybe even some playtime.

END THE SUFFERING FOR DOGS LIKE FLAGA
27th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
THE LITTLE GIRL THAT NOBODY LOVED
I was wandering the streets all alone when a kind lady found me. I was so skinny, and suffering with some terrible skin problems. I am not a typical street dog. I am a shitzu and here at the Soi Dog shelter, they have named me Flaga.
I am about 3 years of age now and most likely did have an owner at some point, unlike the other street dogs. Maybe I was dumped because taking care of me was too much work. Maybe my owner didn’t want me when I was no longer a c...

A kind sponsor has donated some of my flight costs. Will you please ADOPT me?

27th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
Wardsana arrived at our shelter suffering from horrendous skin conditions. In desperation, she had simply walked into a house and cried for help. The lady who lived there contacted Soi Dog.
We simply couldn’t take in cats like Wardsana were it not for the members of our Care for Cats Club whose donations fund the medical treatment, spaying and neutering, food and care for stray cats like this beautiful girl.
The Care for Cats Club is made up of people like you, who want to help the sick an...

YOU ARE HIS LAST HOPE. WILL YOU HELP HIM?
26th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
DOGS LIKE ME SIMPLY WON’T MAKE IT WITHOUT YOU
For four years, I have struggled. Four long years of sickness, hunger, and fear. Four years since the day I was born on to the streets of Thailand, like millions of others. My name is Matada and this is my story.
I was found by a lady who feeds the street dogs in her community. She could see how weak I was, how I was too scared to lift my head in her direction. Her horrified gaze took in my emaciated body, her concerned eyes counting each one of ...

FROM A SLAUGHTERHOUSE TO A CALIFORNIA BEACH
It's me, Jess. My name is Reva now, and I wanted to stop by to thank the people like you who made my rescue possible and to update you on my new life.
Soi Dog is always in need of help to stop the terribly cruel dog meat trade and to rescue more dogs like me. If it hadn't been for those kind people who responded to that appeal, I wouldn't be here now.
I would have been tortured for hours, force-fed and beaten, before finally being skinned alive.

WILL YOU PLEASE SPONSOR WOOD HORRIS?
26th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
PLEASE SPONSOR ME WHILE I LIVE AT THE SOI DOG SHELTER
My name is Wood Horris and my life so far has been a struggle to survive. I almost lost the fight recently as I walked into a busy road and was hit by a car. Because I am blind, I didn’t see it coming.
I am only 3 years old but had been unable to find food and fend for myself, so I was severely emaciated when Soi Dog found me. For the first time in my life, I now know that I am safe, but caring for hundreds of dogs like me is not easy.

I WAS STOLEN FROM THE STREETS OF NORTHERN THAILAND, A VICTIM OF THE ILLEGAL DOG MEAT TRADE....
I am Milka, a 4 year old girl. PLEASE EMAIL cristy@soidog.org if you can ADOPT me.
I was grabbed from the street and crushed into a cage with many other dogs and driven 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. I was terrified and so were all the other dogs crushed into those cages.
I could hear the younger dogs cr...

PLEASE DON'T FORGET ME. I STILL NEED YOU.

PLEASE DON’T FORGET HIM
Poppa will never forget what you did for him. If wonderful people like you hadn’t bought billboards and signed the petition against dog meat traders, he probably would have been skinned alive. But Poppa hopes you won’t forget him, because he needs you now more than ever.
WILL YOU FEED A DOG LIKE POPPA FOR $12.50 A MONTH? http://bit.ly/Forget_Him_Not
Poppa is one of thousands of dogs that have hobbled and limped into Soi Dog funded shelters with empty bellies an...

WILL YOU HELP MORE DOGS LIKE BLAMMO?
25th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
At just 6 weeks of age, Blammo was found lying in an alley, weak and shivering. He was seriously dehydrated and his tiny body was covered in seriously infected wounds. The kind person who found him brought him to our shelter and we appealed for your help.
Thanks to people like you, we were able to start Blammo on fluids and tend to his wounds. He also needed treatment for worms. He has made a remarkable recovery and has now been adopted. He is barely recognisable as that sad young boy we met b...

SOMEONE LIKE YOU HAS CHANGED MY WORLD
My name is Muska and I am not much older than 2 years of age. As one of millions of Thai street dogs, life has been a challenge since the day I was born.
I wish I could tell you how I got the terrible wound I had when I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter. It covered the entire right side of my face and neck and was severely infected.
The infection had weakened me to the point where I could barely stand up. The wound was also infested with maggots and causing ...

I AM COLLIE – WILL YOU SPONSOR ME?
I arrived here 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 help me – and all the animals here with me – is by ...

Over 4 years ago, Raindrop arrived at our shelter as a tiny, scared puppy. She had been dumped outside a temple, where she was far too young to survive.
It has now been nearly a year and a half since we said goodbye to Raindrop as she left us for her forever home, after being adopted by Dean and Kelly in Canada.
From being rescued from the streets of Thailand as a tiny, vulnerable puppy, here is Raindrop today - caring for another tiny, vulnerable being. Sophia, born just two weeks ago, has ma...
