In a recent post you may recall we wrote about a guy who saw a sick dog and the “owner” unable to properly take care of Striper with such a health condition, so Ken took it upon himself to get her the emergency care she needed and do all he could to help the poor [...]

Last April, we adopted Pirate from Care for Dogs. He was a stray who had been hit by a car and was rescued by some kind ladies in the Mae Jo area. They called us and I was part of the rescue team - my first rescue.
The vet informed us that aside from his hurt [...]

UPDATE
Caroline found a home yesterday (1 October)
Caroline is a 7 - 10 year old pure bred German Shepherd that was rescued recently to the shelter, after being dumped outside the home of a friend of Care for Dogs.
(Isn’t it amazing that when people know you love dogs, they will take advantage of that?)
She has [...]

After lots of reassurance from Sarah, Karin, and Ally (as well as others!) who thought that it was still more likely for Licorice to be suffering from e-canis (the SNAP tests can be fallible and give a false negative) than from cancer (both would affect platelet and red blood cell count).
I started Licorice on doxycycline [...]

These 2 pups are in need of homes. They are currently being looked after here in Chiang Mai by Sue who can be contacted direct on 081 881 32 40.

These dogs are not at the shelter but have been found and cared for by someone who cares for dogs in their area.

I’m a brown-white 5 month old puppy named Mandy.
I’m pure puppy cuteness, bounding and bouncing around while following those I love. I’m energetic, bold, and very playful towards other dogs and people. I would definitely be a great pet for people with children and a great buddy for another dog.
My three siblings, my dad and [...]

I’m really scared. Although Licorice’s mange had dramatically improved, the stress of the flight had caused her to start loosing some hair again. I therefore opted to put her back on Ivermectin but with no real improvement this time around. Since Licorice’s mange hasn’t gotten much better there was a concern in my mind that [...]

Can you see the loving smile and affectionate eyes of this beautiful boy?
Yung has been at the shelter previously and then adopted by people we thought would take care of him and give him a long and happy life. Unfortunately that came to a halt when the family decided they would move away from Chiang [...]

Last weekend five kittens were dumped near the shelter.
One was quite sick so was easy to catch, the others took a little bit of rounding up in the banana field nearby. They are being fostered and are all doing well now. They are also very friendly so have obviously been living in a home somewhere [...]

As ticks and mosquitos are rampant in Thailand, I recently pulled blood and did a SNAP test on my two adoptees- Wolfie and Licorice. The SNAP test is incredibly easy to use and requires just three drops of blood to test for Heartworm, Ehrlichia, and Lyme disease. Licorice’s was clear! Hurray!
But, surprisingly, my bounce-up-and-down, active [...]

Although Licorice’s skin and hair regrowth have been phenomenally better than before, the stress of being a submissive dog at the shelter, I think, was interferring a bit with the daily treatment and causing patches of hair to start falling out again. Before her flight out, Care For Dogs took Licorice to the vet in order to check her kidney [...]

This letter just in, from a street wise guy looking for a new home.

Hi there
My name is Winston and I was dumped in the garden of one of the volunteers of Care for Dogs. They have three male dogs already and couldn’t keep me, so I’m now at the shelter of Care For Dogs in [...]

This letter is a plea from some responsible people living in SanKampaeng, telling an all too familiar story.
Can you help or know someone that can? Please contact us if you are able to assist these puppies in finding a home.
Khun Mai also sent these photo’s of the family she describes.

Hello
My husband and I live in [...]

Ever eager to bounce up in my arms to say hi and then rest her head in my neck for safety, Licorice is, now more than ever, the love of my life. As my first adoptee, Wolfie (now try to guess what type of attitude she’s gifted with!) is Queen around the house and ever [...]

As we stress at time of adoption, a follow up visit to the home will be made by Care fort Dogs as we are dedicated to ensuring that a dog is adopted for the right reasons and into an acceptable environment.
Today I visited 2 dogs Chiro & Randy, that were adopted in April this year, [...]
