Just recently I have been very fortunate to visit Happy Tails Dog Sanctuary on the island of Ko Samui in Thailand. My daughter has been volunteering there for 10 months and managing the operation too. This was my first "holiday" for 9 years although it felt more like an experience than a holiday.
The Sanctuary was set up by a lovely lady Francoise 15 years ago and it's only surviving thanks to her, the volunteers and the donations which come in. It's not registered as a charity because it costs too much to do so and it gets no government help but currently there are around 50 dogs and nearly as many cats living there which have been rescued from the streets or dumped by locals. The sanctuary also feeds local street dogs every day too.
They are really quite desperate as their accounts are very low and yet the dogs constantly require food and medication.
If you would be interested at all in sponsoring one of the dogs please check the website: https://www.happytailssamui.com/sponsor
I know Francoise and the dogs would be extremely grateful.
Thank you, Nick
