Our “Frank” Is On The Up 28th Nov 2013, by Soi Dog Foundation
Frank was living on the streets as a young puppy near Phuket Town when we got a call from a concerned person who had seen a dog looking very sad and depressed, and was being kicked and hit by a group of people.
Our dog catcher went out and rescued him, and brought him back to us so that he would now be safe from harm and well looked after.
He has gone from strength to strength, and now trusts people again. He is a really sweet dog of about 2 years of age with a cheeky little personality. He ha...

Best of all though is his demeanour. He is alert and a can be seen on these photos very relaxed when receiving treatment whi...

Rogers Is Ready To Go 26th Nov 2013, by Soi Dog Foundation
Rogers Is Ready To Go
Rogers has some very kind supporters that have offered to contribute towards her travel costs to assist her in finding her loving home.
Rogers is an adorable girl who is nearly 9 years old, and has been with us for nearly 2 ½ years.
She has recently become very depressed with shelter life, and has become very quiet in her run. Being that she has already had it very hard in life we really want to see her in a loving home where we hope she will be able to regain her form...

HERO UPDATE PART TWO 26th Nov 2013, by Soi Dog Foundation
This afternoon Gill passed on your requests for hugs and he certainly seemed to enjoy them. We can tell you that he is a very gentle dog and what fur remains is very soft and looks like he is brindle in colour and semi long haired. Will be a very handsome boy if he recovers. He is certainly already looking much better.
Some more dead maggots were found today and removed and his skin looks more settled. We will keep our fingers crossed that the current drugs succeed in overcoming the septicemi...

HERO UPDATE PART ONE 26th Nov 2013, by Soi Dog Foundation
Hero is responding to treatment and is under the care of Dr. Su who as regular followers will know is a miracle worker with wounds. These photos were taken on Monday. We are not showing photos of the left hand side of his body as many people would find it too distressing, with numerous puncture wounds. On Monday Dr. Sue gave him a body scrub which is actually very gentle and removed matted fur and dead skin. It took 90 minutes to complete. At present treatment is focusing on the septicemia as th...
