28th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Wiseky was absolutely terrified when he arrived – he couldn’t stop trembling in fear. Considering the amount of pain and fear he must have been in, it’s no surprise. 😔
He’d completely lost part of his leg in an accident – we can only imagine the suffering he had to endure. As it had already been a few days since the accident happened, there was necrotic tissue in the wound and maggots coming out. 😧
Thankfully, Wiseky is now in the safety of our hospital receiving the lifesaving...

Dongpai Has Kindly Taken The Time Out Of His Very ..
27th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Dongpai has kindly taken the time out of his very busy day to share something with you… there are many important decisions to make in life (for Dongpai it tends to be what shelf to perch on), and while it might not be one we often give much thought to, legacy giving is one that can have lasting impact.
As a cat with FeLV, Dongpai is likely to spend the rest of his life at our shelter in Phuket. Legacy giving helps to ensure that animals like him have a safe place to continue to call home. Le...

Happy First Gotcha Day To Coco. Coco Was A Vulnera..
26th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Happy first Gotcha Day to Coco! 🎂
Coco was a vulnerable three-month-old pup when she came to us in 2020. She'd met with a terrible car accident, leaving three of her four legs fractured.
It took many months of rehabilitation and rest, but Coco eventually recovered and grew into the gorgeous young girl you see here, with striking amber eyes. She had (and still has) a kooky personality, and you were bound to laugh if you spent time with her.
After 18 months at the shelter, Coco found her f...

25th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Eiriko was found alone on the side of the road near the jungle. As there were no houses or people around, it was suspected that Eiriko had been abandoned. 😥
Luckily, a caring person just so happened to be passing by and found her. They were just in time as Eiriko was dehydrated - likely from having a lack of water to drink. She was also very skinny, suggesting it might have been a while since she'd last properly eaten. 😟
As you can see from the photos, Eiriko had to have her fur shaved d...

⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ It really is incredible what some loving care can achieve. 🧡
When Favorite first arrived, she was struggling to cope from the excruciating pain she was in. The maggot infested wound on her head was causing her great suffering. 😔

22nd Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week 🐶🐱
Companion animals come in all different shapes and sizes and with varying needs. Some are big, others are small. Some have missing limbs. They could be blind or deaf or they might need a wheelchair to get around.
No matter whether they are confident or shy, loud or quiet, obedient or unruly, loyal or indifferent, one thing’s for sure – they deserve to be loved for exactly who they are.
We don’t believe in any dog or cat being labelled as “less ...

22nd Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Pascal was rescued from certain death. He and 11 other dogs had been illegally captured for the dog meat trade in the Philippines.
To transport them discreetly, Pascal and his friends were disguised in sacks and had their mouths bound with metal wire to conceal their cries.
Barely able to breathe, they were terrified. The dog meat traders bared no mercy despite their suffering – they only had one intention for these dogs which was to end up of the dinner table.
Thankfully, the fate of the...

21st Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
At the end of June, we were devastated when the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) announced a ban on the importation of dogs from over 100 countries deemed at high risk of transmitting canine rabies, including Thailand.
With so many dogs at risk of having their Canadian dreams torn away from them, we needed to act fast if we were to fulfill their wishes coming true.
With just a week to go until the ban comes into effect – we are extremely excited to share that 50 of our dogs have left ...

20th Sep 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Rasto had been limping on his right front leg for three weeks. 😟 Thankfully there was someone who could no longer bear to see him suffer, so they sought out help for him.
When Rasto arrived at our hospital it was obvious how much pain he was in from the wound on his leg. He was also suffering from leukocytosis which is an increase in the white blood cells likely caused by the infection.
As the damage was too far gone, our veterinary team decided an amputation ...

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...
