Soi Dog Foundation is sad to announce the death of Yvonne de Haay Stekelenburg. Yvonne was one of the first foreigners to take an interest in Phuket’s stray dogs. For many years – up to her death – she could be found feeding and taking dogs to Phuket Animal Hospital and, in more recent years, Soi Dog Foundation. Yvonne worked as a holiday rep and was based in Patong, but all her spare time was devoted to helping the stray dogs. She fed dogs throughout Patong and in areas around Katu, where she lived. The dogs will miss her.

Yvonne had been battling cancer for some time. Funeral arrangements will be announced shortly. Our deepest condolences go out to her family and friends.

Soi Dog Foundation

Established in 2003 in Phuket, Thailand, Soi Dog is Southeast Asia's largest organisation helping stray animals. The Gill Dalley sanctuary in Phuket is home to over 1,600 animals. Soi Dog also has a treatment facility in Bangkok and responds to crisis situations throughout Thailand. The organisation is dedicated to implementing effective, sustainable solutions that reduce the suffering of dogs and cats in Asia, runs entirely on donations and works efficiently so all donations are used to help animals as effectively as possible.

The foundation is a registered not-for-profit organisation in Thailand, the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Switzerland, France and Holland. It has a maximum 4-star rating with Charity Navigator, the largest and most-utilised independent non-profit evaluator in the United States, a platinum seal of transparency from Candid, the world’s largest source of non-profit information, a Top Rated award from Greatnonprofits and the Travelers’ Choice award from Tripadvisor.
