Timeline Photos 8th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
Sydney was saved from barbaric torture and slaughter as a victim of the dog meat trade.
This lucky boy went on to be adopted by Pilantana in Maryland, U.S.A. and as you can see, is loving life with his new family (Sydney on the right, giving kisses, as you look at the photo.)
Meanwhile, over 1,300 dogs rescued from the same fate await their forever homes. Can you please help?
Adopting a dog rescued from the cruel meat trade is very straightforward and our Adoptions team organise every step of...

HE DESERVES BETTER. CLICK HERE TO HELP HIM. 8th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
The tumours were taking over my body when they found me. I am a boy of 7 years of age, who has lived a hard life on the streets. My name is Jukebox.
I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter suffering with something called TVT or trans-venereal tumours. Although you may not see this much in dogs in your country, it is very common among the street dog population in Thailand.
I had already lost an eye to one of these tumours after it completely engulfed it and caused it to protrude from the socket. It w...

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 alex@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 cryi...

PLEASE SIGN UP TO SPONSOR A DOG IN NEED! 8th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
I AM SHY AND SCARED. WILL YOU PLEASE SPONSOR ME TO HELP WITH MY ONGOING CARE?
My name is Doris and when I was a few months old one of the Soi Dog volunteers found me abandoned in his garden. I had probably been dumped there because I was unwanted.
Sadly, some unknown traumatic experiences with humans have left me very anxious of people. I am now living in the shy dog run here at the shelter, where I am safe and well cared for but my fear does mean I am unlikely to be adopted right now.

YOU ARE ALL HE HAS. WILL YOU HELP HIM? 7th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
IF I COULD TALK, YOU WOULD KNOW MY SUFFERING
I am only 2 years old and have lived my whole life on the street, like so many others. They call me Muska.
I was so weak when I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter that I could barely stand up. A shocking wound covered the right side of my face and neck. The wound was severely infected and infested with maggots. I was also diagnosed with severe anaemia and the vets said my white blood cell count was abnormally high.
This is the life of a street dog. Fr...

We are each looking for a very special person who can give each of us a forever home.

I WILL MOST LIKELY LIVE OUT THE REST OF MY LIFE AT THE SHELTER – PLEASE SPONSOR ME!
The tragic circumstances in which I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter were testimony to the many years I spent fending for myself on the streets. My name is Chord and I am over 11 years old now.
I was struggling with horrendous skin problems and a serious leg injury when I arrived here. Sadly, it was too late to save my leg and it had to be removed to end my pain.
I have recovered well from that trauma, but my...

I HAVE LIVED AT THE SHELTER FOR 8½ YEARS NOW...
My name is Zeus King and a kind person has donated some of my flight costs. Will you please give me a forever home for my senior years?
Please EMAIL deb@soidog.org to adopt me!
I am just over 12 years old, and I have been at the Soi Dog shelter in Phuket, Thailand, for so long, no one can remember why I even came here. In my younger days I had a reputation for being a strong, dominant character; my battle scars can tell a tale or two!

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 and sh...

I AM TOO SCARED TO LEAVE THE SOI DOG SHELTER RIGHT NOW – WILL YOU PLEASE SPONSOR ME?
I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter with a large, maggot-infested wound. I was just two months old and they called me Margarita.
Those early days on the streets were a struggle that has scarred me deeply and still today, I am a very shy and nervous girl. This means that I simply cannot be adopted right now.
I am lucky that, thanks to people like you, I could be rescued. Without you, I would have died from the ...

ANOTHER 4 LIVES SAVED FROM THE DOG MEAT TRADE!
Our investigators recently received intelligence from Sakon Nakhon, in the north-east of Thailand, about dogs being grabbed from the street late at night by men on motorbikes.

Upon receiving this tip-off, our investigators, with the cooperation of the Royal Thai Police, staked out the surrounding area.
At 4.00am on October 5th, th...

Timeline Photos 6th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
Lewis arrived at our shelter early last year, after being orphaned when his mother was killed. He was only a tiny pup at the time.
Lewis (on the left as you look at the photo) was adopted by Agata and Michael in Scotland, who sent us this great picture of him with his new best friend.
From terrible beginnings, Lewis got a second chance at life and hit the jackpot with his adoption. This is all we want for all the animals in our care.
Could YOU adopt a rescue dog or cat from us? We have hund...

I am a 3½ year old girl and have been at the Soi Dog shelter, Phuket, Thailand since I was 3 months old. That is nearly all my life and it makes me sad.

I CANNOT BE ADOPTED RIGHT NOW. PLEASE SPONSOR ME!
My name is Ying and my brother Yang and I were taken to the vet by our owner who wanted us to be put to sleep because she no longer wanted to care for us.
The vet refused to do this but our owner simply abandoned us, leaving us to fend for ourselves out on the streets. Fortunately for us, a staff member from the vet clinic found us and brought us to the Soi Dog shelter.
My brother has recently been adopted, but I was always the nervous one. Be...

End The Suffering For Dogs Like Brandee 5th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
By the time the driver saw Brandee it was too late. She had run out in front of his car and left him no time to stop. The car ploughed into her, seriously injuring her left hind leg. She is only 4 months old.
Distraught, the driver of the car stopped and scooped up this terrified girl, and drove her to the nearest vet clinic. While she was being given emergency treatment, he returned to the scene of the accident and started to ask around, trying to find Brandee’s owner.
But Brandee was a str...
