SPAY/NEUTER PROGRAMME EXPANDS IN BANGKOK!
Thanks to YOUR support, Soi Dog continues to expand our mobile spay/neuter clinics in Bangkok, which is home to an estimated 640,000 stray dogs – more than anywhere else in Thailand. Last week, Soi Dog hosted a full team meeting for mobile clinic staff in Bangkok – 7 vets, 9 vet nurses, 12 animal rescue officers, and 2 mobile clinic coordinators.
The goal of the programme is to establish a smaller, healthier, sustainable, rabies-free dog population by sterilising and vaccinating more than 80% of Bangkok Metropolitan’s dogs. This means less suffering for current street dogs and fewer unwanted puppies being born into a lifetime of suffering. Your donation can help us reach this goal in less than 10 years!

What happens at a mobile clinic? Soi Dog follows the CNVR approach – catch, neuter, vaccinate, return – which is both ethical and effective. An animal rescue officer brings a street dog to the mobile clinic site to be spayed (female) or neutered (male) and vaccinated against distemper, parvo, and rabies. Once the dog has recovered from surgery, the dog is returned to the location where she/he was picked up.
The first mobile clinic in Bangkok took place in June 2016. As of last week, we have three teams operating there. Bangkok is divided into 50 districts – to date, over 80% of the dogs living in three districts have been spayed/neutered. Global studies have shown that once 80% of the population has been sterilised, the number of animals living on the streets begins to decline naturally.
The Bangkok mobile clinic programme will eventually comprise 10 mobile clinics across the city’s metropolitan area and will take an estimated 7 years to complete. CVNR is an extremely important method of reducing the suffering of street dogs, and none of this would be possible without your support. Please join our efforts to spare Thailand’s dogs a lifetime of misery – for only a few dollars you can save hundreds of lives. >>> http://bit.ly/sterilise-dogs-in-bangkok
