In the fight against the dog and cat meat trade, we are stronger when we work together 💪

Our Dog Of The Week Is A Girl Who Needs Little Int..
29th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Our 🌟Dog of the Week🌟 is a girl who needs little introduction given how many of you saw her escape artist antics this week (see Wednesday’s post if you missed it), but we’ll introduce her anyway. Meet Unoki: https://links.soidog.org/dog-of-the-week-unoki
A year and nine months old, Unoki has lived at the Soi Dog shelter for almost all of her life. (Perhaps that’s why she’s so keen to unbolt the gates and leave!) She first arrived as a puppy alongside her siblings and her poor mum...

29th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
From a slaughterhouse in South Korea to comfort and safety in sunny California, this is the story of Happy and Billy ❤️
Happy and Billy were two of 17 dogs rescued by our partner ARK119 (Animal Rescue Korea 119) in a slaughterhouse raid in the city of Bucheon last year. They were mere moments away from being murdered for their meat when the rescue team arrived.
The dog meat trade occupies a challenging legal grey area in South Korea, and groups like ARK119 often use public health code vio...

The Dog And Cat Meat Trade In Asia Differs From Co..
28th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
The dog and cat meat trade in Asia differs from country to country 🌏
In some places, dogs are snatched from the streets and butchered in slaughterhouses. In others, they are purposefully bred for their meat on farms. In some places, the consumption of dog and cat meat is legal or occupies a grey area. In others, it's illegal but continues underground, as this map shows.
Wherever and however it takes place, we know you will agree that it is unspeakably cruel and must be brought to an end.

As You Can See From His Before Photo, Calvidor Was..
28th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
As you can see from his ‘before’ photo, Calvidor was a sorry state when he was first found. Laying in the dirt and barely able to lift himself, he looked like he had given up all hope of being saved. 💔
With your help, we were able to rescue Calvidor and bring him to the safety of our sanctuary where he could receive the medical care he urgently needed.
Being a previously owned dog, Calvidor had a collar around his neck which had become embedded in his skin causing a deep wound. From an...

Hey There, It's Serumo Here. You Have Probably Alr..
28th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Hey there, it's Serumo here. You have probably already read my story plenty of times, but I must admit it's quite the story. I had been living on the streets for some time and thought I’d learnt how to fend for myself, when all of a sudden I couldn't walk or see any more. Everything just went black. It turns out I’d been violently hit by a speeding vehicle 😱.
Thankfully, an animal lover like you found me and brought me here... and the rest is history! I am now a full-time resident at th...

Weve Finally Got An Answer To The Age-Old Question..
27th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
We’ve finally got an answer to the age-old question “who let the dogs out?” …It was Unoki!
On her first day in a new enclosure, Unoki used her street dog smarts to unbolt not one but two gates, letting herself and nine other rescue dogs out in the process.
DISCLAIMER: No dogs were lost or harmed in the making of this video. Unoki’s escape plan was soon foiled when she realised she couldn’t get past a third gate and had simply trapped everyone in a corridor.
Unoki is available for...

Urgent We Are Still 25,000 Away From Reaching Our ..
27th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
❗ URGENT ❗ We are still $25,000 away from reaching our target, and the happiness of our traumatised dogs depends on it.
We urgently need to build a new space dedicated to our dogs who have endured terrible physical, and emotional trauma. While their physical wounds might have healed, their emotional scars still need nurturing.
Karimy’s story is an example of just how important this space is. Completely terrified at first, Karimy felt like he had no one he could trust. The main runs whe...

🌟Dog of the Week🌟 Unoki is a unique girl, from the tip of her hyena-like ears to the bottom of her polkadot paws. Get to know her here: https://links.soidog.org/adopt-unoki
Unoki was barely a month old when she arrived at Soi Dog, but she didn’t come alone. In tow were her three siblings and her critically injured mother who had been hit by a car the night before.
The whole family were in urgent need of safety and treatment. For Unoki, that included medication for anaemia and dermati...

Hey there, my name is Ferrero and today I have a big favour to ask you... Will you please become my kind sponsor? Please click here to read more about me: https://links.soidog.org/sponsor-ferrero-now 🙏🧡
When I was just a puppy living on the street, some very cruel humans who lived around my area hated me so much that they were plotting to shoot me. Just because they didn’t like me hanging around 💔. It was only because of animal lovers like you that those humans were stopped and I wa...

After Two Years Of Waiting, The Stars Finally Alig..
25th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
After two years of waiting, the stars finally aligned for Lotos 💫
Lotos came to Soi Dog in early 2020 after a kind lady spotted him limping outside a supermarket and called us for help. His paw was badly cut and swollen, so much so that one of his digits had to be amputated. Fortunately, though, his recovery was a speedy one (just like him!)
Fast-forward to early 2022, Lotos met a couple who'd come to visit Soi Dog while on holiday in Phuket. Little did he know then that they were going to ...

25th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Animals like Hanso need your help. 🙏 Every single week, our Emergency Rescue Team are alerted to a number of road traffic accidents (RTAs) where a dog or cat is critically injured.
Poor Hanso is one of our latest arrivals to have been rescued from an RTA. We don’t know what happened to Hanso, other than that she was hit by a vehicle and left for dead. Sadly, something we see far too often. 😥
Thankfully, Hanso was found by a kind local. It must have been ...

Our Rescue Dogs Are Urgently Looking For Foster Ho..
24th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
❗️ Our rescue dogs are urgently looking for foster homes in Alberta and B.C. 🏡❗️
With your support, we are working hard to get as many dogs as possible to our partner rescues in Canada before the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) import ban comes into force on September 28, 2022.
But before they take off from Thailand, these dogs must have foster homes in place for when they land in Canada.
Sukfourteen here is just one of these dogs. Rescued and rehabilitated after being loc...

24th Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Just like his namesake, Butterboy is the sweetest, which might leave you surprised to know that he was abandoned. Found in a sandbag on the side of the road with his siblings, Butterboy had been discarded like a piece of rubbish at just a few weeks old. 💔
We’re not sure what happened to their mother, but we can only imagine the fear Butterboy and his siblings must have felt to be left all alone in such a dangerous setting with no one to protect them. 😔
Thankfully, someone found the you...

My name is Prowler and, as most of us sponsor dogs, I’ve lived at the shelter almost my entire life. Most people would have given up on me. But not animal lovers like you.

23rd Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
In this week’s episode of #CatWatch, we catch a thief in the act 🕵️
We were just capturing some cute footage of Hunter, who was on cage rest in the cattery at the time, when suddenly a thief entered stage left! Every time little Hunter turned his back, the thief – who goes by the name of Yelpy – dipped her paw into his food bowl for a taste.
Yelpy even had a partner in crime, Yaraden, keeping watch for her and checking no one saw what she was up to. The cheek of it.

⚠️ Upsetting images ⚠️ Looking back at the photos of Carrey when she first arrived, it's hard to believe she's already come this far. And it’s all because of the kindness of people like you. Without your support, Carrey wouldn’t have had access to the urgent treatment she needed that undoubtedly saved her life. 🧡
So far, Carrey has been recovering well. Sadly, her sight has been permanently lost, meaning she'll never be able to see again, but at least she's in a safe place receiv...

21st Jul 2022, by Soi Dog Foundation
Bright-eyed and big-hearted. Brindle and beautiful. ❤ Meet Haylen: https://www.soidog.org/adopt/haylen-1785
Haylen was found in a government pound in northeastern Thailand back in 2017 where he was confined in a small space with hundreds of other dogs. Your support helped bring Haylen to our shelter for safety and give him the treatment and care he needed.
Seven-year-old Haylen is an easygoing and playful dog who loves the company of people, but because of his negative experiences at the po...
