Hey Everyone,

My daughter has an idea to help the stray dogs and raise awareness for the animals in Thailand. I have searched online and found Tony's Dog Farm Plutaluang/Pattaya might be a good place to donate the profits.

I have a couple of questions:

I can't locate Tony's Dog Farm contact details, does anyone know where the shelter place is located?

Is there a better puppy rescue place we should look at?

Website is http://www.tonydisco.com/html/dog_shelter.php

Payment details at http://www.tonydisco.com/html/dog_help_me.php

However, before you donate please have a look at:

Other places you might consider are:

Both, I believe, do a good job.

Thanks for your reply. I will check them out.

I can understand if you wish to support a local organisation (i.e. in Pattaya), but if that is not an important consideration for you, you might want to consider contacting Thai Visa member Camu. She is doing great work for dogs in Bangkok, and she is currently in the process of starting a new project for a rescue center that is supposed to be run and financed by Thais (once it's up and running). Like you, she also thinks that it's important not only to help the dogs but also to raise awareness in the Thai community.

I think there is also one or two other members on Thai Visa running rescue centers (Elke?).

Whatever you decide, thank you for doing your bit to improve the lives of the stray dog population.
