Beautiful white puppy Ludo was found newly dumped outside a local temple near the SCAD dog center. The tiny puppy was chasing his ‘owner’ down the road after he abandoned him  and drove off in a truck. He was very sad and his skin was in poor condition, but just a few weeks later he is fully recovered, happy once more and looking for his forever home!

Handsome Sid came to SCAD after being rescued from a flood area by members of the TWP Coalition, consisting of SCAD, ENP and the Kinship Circle. He came to us obviously very afraid of humans and was virtually impossible to handle (which earned him the nickname ‘Grumpypants’) but after working with him gently for several weeks, Sid has been transformed into a loving and affectionate dog. Sid is now looking for his forever home!

Gorgeous Khem Khaeng, meaning 'strength' in Thai (or 'Zombie' as he's known to his friends!) came to SCAD through an individual rescuer and her friends, who found him in an appalling condition in a flood area; he was suffering from severe mange, blood parasites and was just skin and bones. The rescuers cared for him in the short term but came to SCAD when they realized that he needed more long-term care in order to get better.

Spotty dog Wrinkle got his name from his very cute wrinkly head! Wrinkle came to SCAD during the recent flood crisis, when he was rescued from a flood area and brought to the TWP Shelter under SCAD's care. At first it was suspected Wrinkle had a dislocated left hip as his bone seemed to be sticking out at a very strange angle, however, x-rays revealed Wrinkle femural head (the 'ball' which fits into the 'socket' of his hip) was sheared off. Although complicated and painful surgery was an option, the vet instead recommended that as Wrinkle was in no pain from this defect, the hip should be left to form it's own joint. Aside from a lumpy hip, Wrinkle is fully mobile, pain free and loves to run!

Poor little Bam was found during one of our CNR inspections. We were told that she was unable to poo as she has no anus but on inspecting her we discovered that she was covered in faeces. However there was obviously something very wrong as her abdomen was so extended. So we took her and endeavoured to find out what the cause was...

At the vets it was obvious that Bam didn’t have an anus; faeces was coming from her vulva instead. It was clear that she was going to need surgery! Bam was lucky in that she had a "type II" atresia ani - imperforate anus, where there was little distance between where the anus should be and where the colon was leading to her vulva, so it was basically a matter of making one opening and closing another. The surgeon would not have to move any length of colon, cut into the colon, or even cut into her abdomen. All of this made her a very good candidate for surgery.

Bam has since had the operation and is recovering nicely although she did have pneumonia and had to be hospitalised. She is currently at SCAD on 93 where she is learning to use her new anus – it’s going to be a long haul though as her muscles need to become strong in order for it to all work properly!

Young puppy Lyca was rescued along with her sister Blondie from a temple near the SCAD dog center. She was found living in a wood pile, with several dead siblings around the area, and she was suffering from mange with large bald patches on her body and a high fever. She started a course of treatment for her skin problem and her fever quickly dropped. She made an excellent recovery and her fur has all grown back beautifully.

Several months later, however, Lyca started to display behaviour which suggested she had vision problems, being reluctant to go to new places and bumping her nose on objects whilst sniffing around. After exams with 2 vets and a specialist ophthalmologist, it was agreed that the most likely cause of Lyca's deterioration in vision is a condition called SARDS (Sudden Acquired Retinal Destruction Syndrome). As this is a rare condition, only 3 medical centers in Thailand are able to confirm this and we are now awaiting final confirmation of this likely condition. The exact cause of SARDS is still unknown, but the condition causes gradual destruction of the retina which ultimately leads to full and permanent blindness. This can happen very quickly over a few weeks, or longer over several months - if Lyca is confirmed as having SARDS she will gradually go blind, though currently she can navigate her way around very well and can avoid objects, but has problems with focusing on things close to her.

Now a sponsorship animal, Lyca is soon to go into long-term foster care with SCAD supporter and previous foster carer Shaun, so she will be able to get used to his house and learn her surroundings now, whilst she can still see, which will make like easier when she loses her vision. In the meantime we will continue to look for a permanent home for Lyca with adopters who are willing to give a good home to this loving, special young dog.

Pinky was dumped outside a pet shop in central Bangkok. At the time she was heavily pregnant and a few days later she gave birth to three puppies. The staff at the pet shop was kind enough to feed Pinky and her puppies but couldn’t keep them long-term. Given the shop is in a former SCAD project area, we agreed to help the dog “aunty” keep the street free of new animals. Two puppies were unfortunately already taken by construction workers but Pinky and her little son Elmo were brought to SCAD.

Kaa Moo was being looked after by a kind Thai lady down the road from SCAD. Kaa Moo sustained an injury to her leg which became severely infected. Her leg became so swollen that it resembled a pig's foot; hence the Thai name. The lady did not have the money to get Kaa Moo the medical care she needed, so asked our vet nurse for help. SCAD treated her leg and to try and get the infection under control. Unfortunately Kaa Moo's infection had been left for too long and despite trying many treatments, it was decided that amputation was the best course of action. Kaa Moo has made a full recovery from the amputation - however, a further x-ray showed a broken back near the base of her spine making Kaa Moo incontinent. She is currently undergoing acupuncture and we hope this made help repair some of the nerve endings.  

Zade is one of a litter of 13. Mum had given birth to numerous litters on the street, all of whom had been unwanted by the local community and died as a result. A local lady wanted this litter to have a chance, so SCAD took them into care at two days old, along with mum. Mum was so exhausted from feeding 13 pups that SCAD staff had to assist by hand-rearing.

In 2006, Mama Dog gladly walked into a cage for food during an ongoing project round-up at a temple near our former Health Center on the rural outskirts of Bangkok. Initially thought to be ‘gift wrapped’ for sterilisation and vaccination, she was found to be heavily pregnant. Mama Dog was extremely thin and nervous, only allowing one SCAD volunteer to pet her. A few days after admission, she delivered two stillborn and five live puppies, all of which died within 24 hours. She remained nervous, but was given space to rest and recuperate. Six weeks later, she was sterilized. Her road to recovery was slow and although she is now fit and strong, she remains very nervous of strangers.

Sa Hai first came to SCAD through a community sterilization project in a large neighbourhood north of Bangkok. He was neutered and vaccinated by SCAD and returned to his neighbourhood. Unfortunately only a few months later he was brought to our attention again because he had developed demodectic mange with secondary bacterial infections and two forms of blood parasite infections. He had sores all over his body and his nose was especially bad, almost being completely covered in sores. After a course of treatment Sa Hai has returned to the healthy dog he once was and is ready to find a new home. Sa Hai recently travelled to Calgary, Canada, to the Heaven Can Wait Animal Shelter - we home his new base will help him to find his forever home quicker! (Updated: November 2011)

In February 2010, at just three months old, Mickey was found tied up in a vacant lot in a central Bangkok location. A member of SCAD’s staff was walking her pet dogs and heard his cries. The local motorcycle taxi drivers explained that the puppy was tied up there before daybreak by a foreigner. He was adopted very quickly, before he was even admitted to SCAD’s adoption program! Sadly, his adoptive home was not able to manage his high energy levels and cheeky character, so they appealed to SCAD for help in finding him a more suitable forever home. Micky travelled to Calgary, Canada, to the Heaven Can Wait Animal Shelter  where we home his new base will help him to find his forever home quicker! (Updated: November 2011)

Mick used to live in a car park with approximately 40 other dogs that were fed by the local community. Mick had a tumour in his mouth which a visiting local vet removed. Unfortunately the wound became so infected that Mick couldn't eat anything and his carers were pushing rice down his throat! He was obviously in tremendous pain so he was sedated when he arrived at SCAD where his wounds were cleaned. It was soon apparent that his whole throat was infected and he had large tumours which turned out to be cancer. He also had a form of (treatable)  herpes and he was severely anorexic. However, since being at SCAD and receiving much needed medical attention as well as treatment for the cancer, he is now in remission and is looking very well.  Mick travelled to Calgary, Canada, to the Heaven Can Wait Animal Shelter  where we home his new base will help him to find his forever home quicker!
