**Update Already found a home – No surprises there !**
This story just shows what the right action and a little bit of time can achieve.

This is Alfie, a gorgeous little guy who was found dumped on the side of the road.

Nina is a cute little girl who came to Care for Dogs as a dumped dog quite a while ago and immediately became the sweetheart of one of the guys working at the shelter. Khun Nod adopted her and she travelled everywhere with him, on the bike, in the car and lived as a companion [...]

The purpose of this article is to raise readers awareness of some of the work that Care for Dogs is involved in, apart from Sterilisation, Adoption and caring for sick or wounded dogs at the shelter in Hang Dong, Chiang Mai Thailand.
Dogs that suffer with this awful condition pass it on to one another very easily. Either via intercourse or contact with the blood, a dog can easily contract it and pass it on to all those that are in their vicinity.

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.

The little fluffy dog stood in the middle of the highway that leads from Mae Joe to Chiang Mai. While driving past, I noted her with one eye, and suddenly had a strange feeling – something was wrong. You see a lot dogs along the highways, in bustling streets, even sleeping on the road, and [...]

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 [...]
