19th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Lullaboy found his forever home here in Phuket! 🏝
Most of our dogs are rescued from the streets, but Lullaboy came to us for a different, heartbreaking reason. His owner sadly passed away, and he was left alone.
At first, Lullaboy was confused and grieving but after some medical care, as well as lots of love and reassurance, he was ready to find a new home and settle down once and for all.
Ten months later, Lullaboy was chosen by a local expat who visited our shelter in search of a dog to...

Upsetting Images Poor Nizio Has Been Through Such ..
19th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Poor Nizio has been through such a rough time. 😥 He was first abandoned on the streets, and then hit by a car and injured not long after. Even though he was hurt and scared, he had no one to look after him. 😟
By the time Nizio arrived in our care, he had been suffering for two days. The accident had caused his eyeball to protrude, which must have been so painful for him.
After examination, our veterinary team found that the eye had grown necrotic and there...

18th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
As the old saying goes, it’s what’s on the inside that counts. But sadly, Cagnay’s previous owners just didn’t see it that way. 😔 Her face might have looked a little different, but she was still the sweet and affectionate girl she had always been – with the same big heart she just wanted to share. One day, Cagnay was abandoned on a rubber plantation, and that big heart of hers was broken in half. 💔
With many other dogs in the area, and no food or water, Cagnay was at extreme ris...

What does a cat have to do to get a moment’s rest around here? 💤
Picture the scene. You’re a rescue cat in the Soi Dog cattery. You’ve just picked out a quiet corner or cosy cat basket, you’ve curled up and got comfortable, you’re just about to nod off and… bam! One of your 20+ roommates has decided now is the perfect time to file their nails or cause a fight.
If you’re a deep sleeper like ginger boy Maifah, you can sleep right through. But if you’re a more sensitive soul li...

17th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Today is Puppy Mill Awareness Day and, fittingly, Responsibly Dog Ownership Day too.
As a Soi Dog supporter, we know you share our “adopt, don’t shop” ethos. But how can we encourage others to feel the same? How can we respond when a friend or family member tell us they’re thinking of buying a dog from a puppy mill?
Here are some ideas:
🐶 Don’t judge or shame.
When you have a passion for rescue and someone close to you has a desire to buy, it can feel frustrating to say the lea...

16th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Shiver 2011-2022
We are saddened to learn today of the passing of one of our former shelter dogs, Shiver.
Shy, fearful and withdrawn, Shiver arrived at the Soi Dog shelter as a young dog aged just 4 months. He was a nervous dog with a complex personality, attributed to the very tough start to his life on the street. He was suffering from severe mange, he was malnourished and extremely hungry. Life on the street is hard for many dogs, but for Shiver and his idiosyncrasies, it was more difficul...

It all started back in 2017 when he was rescued from a government pound in northeastern Thailand where he was confined in a small space with hundreds of other dogs. Thanks to your support, we were able to bring him and many others to safety.
Haylen is an easygoing and playful dog who loves the company of people. Next month will mark his fifth year with us. Anniversaries are usually a cause for celebration, but no...

15th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
It’s been a few weeks now since we shared the arrival of Albion and Edwina, and we’re still in awe of their bravery and steely determination.
They were both abandoned at a derelict storage house. Sensing that they weren’t safe there, they tried to escape but were unable to do so because of the chains around their neck restricting them from seeking safety. 😟
Despite being cruelly discarded, we like to think that Albion and Edwina were still hopeful that there were kind people out ther...

From a poorly puppy to a timid but tender-hearted teenager, our 🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Chibolo has come such a long way. https://links.soidog.org/adopt-chibolo
Chibolo was found by one of our mobile clinic teams at a landfill site when he was just two months old. Living alone among mounds of rubbish had left him dirty and sick, not to mention terrified. He was anaemic, feverish and infested with ticks and fleas, and he sat frozen in fear as our vets examined him.
Chibolo was cleaned up and g...

Caliph was in desperate need of help, but he had no one to look after him. 💔 😔 Suffering from a chronic skin condition, Caliph was constantly itchy and uncomfortable. He didn’t have any relief from the irritation that was causing him distress.
