Meet Heidi: saved from Nakhon Phanom, currently living at Soi Dog's shelter on Phuket island. 

A generous supporter has sponsored Heidi's travel costs!

Group A/B                     

One of the first to approach visitors.

Happy, friendly and affectionate kisser.

Good with the other dogs.

Walks well on a leash. 

People are often drawn in by my beautiful brindle coat, proud white chest and cute socks, but it’s my sweet and funny personality that really makes them fall in love. That’s the Heidi effect!

In fact, a kind person was so taken with me recently that they put some money towards my journey to my furever home so I can get there as soon as possible. I will be furever grateful for his kindness.

But maybe I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me rewind and tell you about my life so far. Soi Dog Foundation found me in an overcrowded government shelter in northern Thailand in 2018. Following an exaggerated rabies scare, the Thai government rounded me and thousands of other street dogs up and held us there. Healthy and sick dogs were housed together, and not all of us made it out alive. I was one of the lucky dogs that made it to safety.

When I arrived at the Soi Dog shelter in Phuket, I was treated for some tick-borne diseases, neutered and given the vaccinations and love that all dogs deserve. And since then, it’s like I’ve got younger instead of older! I now spend my days walking, playing and kissing volunteers with the enthusiasm of a puppy.

I’ve also discovered tug of war and insist on at least a few games each day. I’m a good sport though. I let my opponent, human or canine, win every now and then!

Will you give a fun-loving girl like me a chance? My doggie bags are packed and I’m ready and raring to go. Now it’s just up to you.
