Last chance at love for Soi Dog hospice dogs

Animal welfare organisation Soi Dog Foundation is calling on residents of Phuket and Phang Nga to join its newly launched hospice foster programme, an initiative designed to provide love, care and dignity to shelter dogs with chronic or life-limiting conditions such as heart disease, kidney disease and cancer.

The programme offers these dogs - many of whom may otherwise be overlooked for adoption - the opportunity to spend their remaining time in the comfort of a home. In return for their love and care, foster carers will receive full support from Soi Dog Foundation, including coverage of all medical expenses and at-home checkups from their mobile veterinary teams.

“This exciting new programme is for people living locally on a long-term basis who want to make a real and lasting difference,” said Soi Dog Foundation CEO Louise Rose.

“By hospice fostering, you'll be doing something extraordinary for a rescue dog in need. These dogs have spent their entire lives on the streets or in the shelter, but I truly believe it's never too late to give them the second chance they've always deserved.”
