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.
Our anonymous source mentioned having seen the dogs packed, 1 or 2 to a sack, before the bikes sped away with them.
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 HAVE SPENT NEARLY MY WHOLE LIFE IN THE SHELTER
My name is Neung. Please email alex@soidog.org to ADOPT me.
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 lived a hard life on the streets. While looking for food, I was hit by a car and left with a broken leg. I was lucky to be brought to the shelter. It saved my life, but I do not want to live here forever.
I spend most of my day...

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...

Give Dogs Like Blammo A Second Chance At Life 5th 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 is barely recognisable as that sad young boy we met back then.
Blammo was sav...

TIED TO A POLE AND ABANDONED BY HIS OWNER...
A kind lady and her husband found Glenna abandoned in the street. He had been tied to a pole and was unable to move. His constant crying had alerted the couple, who contacted our clinic.
We may never know what happened to Glenna, but he is currently unable to use either of his hind legs, which were causing him obvious pain when he arrived at our shelter. His muscles have wasted and both legs are covered in wounds. If only this poor boy could talk.

End The Suffering For Street Dogs And Cats 4th Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
In March 2014, Dumbo was rescued from where he was permanently chained, in the blazing sunshine, with no access to water or shade.
When he arrived at our shelter, he was emaciated and dehydrated, and shockingly weak. We appealed for help with his care and medical treatment, and people like you responded - and ultimately, you saved him.
Dumbo made a remarkable recovery and spent 8 months living at our shelter, before being adopted by Pauline in the UK, where he has now been for almost a year.

My name is Willow and I desperately need a home of my own. Will you ADOPT me?
Please email ALL QUESTIONS to cristy@soidog.org
I have been through an absolutely horrific time.
Stolen from my happy life and ripped away from everything I knew. I don’t want to remember what happened to me when those horrible men caught me. I was locked in a cage with many other dogs crying in pain. How could these people be so cruel?
I couldn’t even breathe prope...

SADLY, I CANNOT BE ADOPTED RIGHT NOW. WILL YOU PLEASE SPONSOR MY ONGOING CARE?
My sister and I were callously dumped when we were just seven weeks old. I am Mariko.
Too small to survive such a cruel world on our own, my sister and I were brought to the Soi Dog shelter by the kind person who found us.
My sister was the braver of the two of us and she was soon adopted. Sadly, I am very shy and nervous of people, which means I need a lot more work before I can be adopted.
I feel safe here at t...

SHE WAS SAVED BY SOMEONE LIKE YOU 3rd Oct 2015, by Soi Dog Foundation
Gorgeous Trin's story was one of the most dramatic rescues your support has enabled us to carry out.
Heavily pregnant when she was hit by a car, Trin took off in terror, despite having sustained very serious injuries. A kind man who chased after her found her hiding in a large concrete pipe on an empty construction site. She had gone into labour.
Thanks to this man, we were alerted, and Trin and her puppies were brought safely to our shelter. Sadly, the car accident had injured Trin's leg beyo...

I AM TOO SCARED TO BE ADOPTED RIGHT NOW...
October is Sponsorship Month at Soi Dog Foundation - will you please make a difference in my life by sponsoring me?
I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter after a horrific traffic accident that left me with serious injuries to my hind legs. They call me Chimera.
Unfortunately, one of my legs had to be amputated in order to prevent infection and save my life. I am only a young girl and coping with three legs is not causing me any problems.
I am grateful ...
