New Year in Chiang Mai is a busy time and we could not miss the opportunity of meeting the thousands of shoppers at the city’s busiest shopping mall – Central Airport Plaza.

Many thanks go to the management of the complex for allowing us to hold our 3rd Adoption Fair at the centre and this time instead of being within the busy confines of walkways full of happy shoppers, we were granted permission to set up our stall on the balcony area at one of the main entrances.

But the day was made that much more a success by the happy adoptions of 7 puppies. Ally failed to capture the 7th pup Pauly & his new family but as can be seen from the images above, it was happy smiley faces all round!

If you were there, then you will know how many people came, participated, contributed & enjoyed the entertainment, the company, the delights of the artwork, the food & drink and of course the spectacle of dogs in an art gallery.

Ana sang her heart out & Kens film which he spent many hours capturing at the shelter looked good on the wall. You can view it here … but please make sure you have sound, otherwise it won’t do Ken’s fabulous work justice.

The presentation made by Karin was memorable, wrenching heart strings when explaining the large “Rescue” canvas and outlining some of the work we are involved with.

Care for Dogs were recently approached by a leading art gallery in Chiang Mai, saying they want to make a contribution to Care for Dogs by way of hosting a fund raising event.
Look at this Gallery are very interested to hear from any artist or photographer with dog and cat related material, who would like to exhibit their work at the gallery and are encouraged to contact Tim McGuire by email info@lookatthisgallery.com or phone (Chiang Mai) 053 400 921 for more information.
Marshall Kelly, the proprietor of Look at this Gallery is prepared to hold the exhibition at his gallery in Nimmanhaemin Road for 12 days in October, that’s in 3 months time.

So here is a heads up, keep the 15th October evening free, your coming to a party !

Today, the fundraising and events committee and support team got together for some scrummy Mexican food at Miguels in the Lamphun Road and sat & chatted about dogs.
But more specifically, we discussed the upcoming 3rd Birthday Party to celebrate 3 years of Care for Dogs which is to be held at & in front of the shelter on Sunday 7 June 2009 starting at 10:00.

It’s official, it’s great, it’s happened and it is a wonderful relief that Khun Grib has finally, after 5 months of waiting, arrived and started her work as a paid member of staff working as the Care for Dogs Shelter Co-ordinator. Answering a very detailed job specification, then ferociously screened by all the core team [...]

Yes it’s official, Care for Dogs will be holding another adoption fair in Chiang Mai, in an effort to try to find homes for all those bouncing bundles of fun that are now just about ready to leave the protection of the shelter and find their lives in the big wide world!

Stay tuned to this channel! Do not adjust your set, the advert for the event will appear here very shortly.

Well it turns out that the first day was extremely well attended, all volunteers said they were very busy during their shifts between 10:00 and 22:00, T-Shirts were doing very well, as were the donations, extremely well actually. It is an amazing experience standing amongst a crowd of people, talking about the work we do [...]
