40 DOGS URGENTLY NEED YOUR HELP

To donate now, go to http://bit.ly/save_had_yai_dogs

Two weeks ago, government officials rounded up 245 stray dogs in the southern province of Had Yai and nearby island Ko Yo. Their plan? To bring them to a government shelter over 1,300 km away in northeastern Thailand.

Local activists protested. 195 dogs in good health were taken to a foster home in Lam Luk Ka. The Department of Livestock Development has agreed to sterilise them. Unfortunately, 50 dogs were extremely sick, suffering from serious diseases including cancer, parvo, and distemper. These dogs were taken to a disused slaughterhouse in Had Yai. With no funds to treat them, Watchdog Thailand have asked Soi Dog to help. Local volunteers have taken all the dogs to nearby private vet clinics for treatment.

Sadly, some of the dogs � including mothers and their puppies � were so sick that they have already died. But many of these dogs still stand a chance at a happy life. They can only get there with your help.

We urgently need donations from people like you to get these dogs vaccinated, treated, and sterilised. Vet bills are already over $3,000. Please go to http://bit.ly/save_had_yai_dogs to donate today. Your gift will provide life-saving care to these helpless dogs.

In the meantime, Soi Dog is working with government authorities in an attempt to change their policy of rounding up and impounding dogs in locations with no budget to care for them properly. Soi Dog is encouraging instead a sterilisation and vaccination programme.

Your help is needed. Donate now at http://bit.ly/save_had_yai_dog
