We spay and neuter 2,500 cats and dogs each year, we offer mass vaccination programs, and offer medical interventions as often as funding allows. We are an official Thai Foundation established in September 2022. Things we do:
- Love and Care by volunteers and student caretakers. Responsible for the basic health care of each dog that resides in the H2P temples; assess and tend to each dog for maln
utrition, injuries, wounds, illness, ticks and fleas with each visit.
- Guarantee that all dogs in our care are sterilized and vaccinated.
- Assess the ever-changing growth or loss of the dog population at each temple.
- Carry out fundraising efforts throughout the year to support our many Hand to Paw efforts.
- Offer immediate medical treatment and/or vet visits for any temple dog afflicted with an illness or injury. Provide a 24/7 emergency hotline to the monks for immediate assistance.
- Deter serious illness with yearly immunization, regular bathing, heartworm and tick and flea prevention and cleaning of food and water bowls.
- Maintain an updated medical history record for every dog under our care.
- Teach the monks how to administer medicines or other treatments for ill dogs at their temple.
- Provide 24-hour response to abandoned puppies within the temple grounds; follow-up post-natal care and adoption assistance.
- Donate monthly supplies of dry dog food to support the monks with daily feeding.
- Work hand in hand the other branches of Hand to Paw to aid stray dogs and dogs from low income families in need of emergency medical care and through a grant from The SoiDog Foundation to sterilize dogs and cats in the Mae Rim Provence.
