Meet Dekdee
Hi! I’m Dekdee, a cautious, gentle and shy girl looking for a home.
I was just four months old when I arrived at Soi Dog after a kind lady found me at a petrol station in a sorry state – sick, scared and likely abandoned. She called for help, and I was brought to the shelter for the treatment and safety I needed. I've been here ever since.
Inside my enclosure, I'm friendly and get along with the other dogs. Outside, however, I can be quite shy if I don't know you very well. I like to walk and explore my surroundings, but I can sometimes be unsure and stop, so please be patient! If you pet me and give me some time, I can be encouraged to walk further. Walking with another dog helps me feel comfortable too. In the off-lead areas, I'm not very confident and will not stray far from the entrance.
As I've never lived in a proper home before, everything will be new and strange at first, but I'm sure there's nothing I can't adapt to with your love and guidance! My name means 'good child' in Thai, and I promise to be just that!
If I sound like a good fit for your family, or you’d like to learn some more about me, please enquire.
THE ADOPTION PROCESS
