Can you help me find a home in the USA?
Hi! I’m Koduck, but the people who know me here in Washington State, USA, call me Koda.
I haven’t always lived in the USA. In fact, I was born many thousands of miles away on the island of Phuket in Thailand. I lived on the streets there for the first year of my life before being brought to the Soi Dog shelter for treatment for a severe leg injury. Sadly, my leg had to be amputated, but I made a remarkable recovery and quickly adapted to life as a tripod.
After eight months at the shelter, I flew to the USA to join a family who was kind enough to adopt me, but unfortunately circumstances have since changed, so I’m looking for a new home.
A bit about me… My current foster family describe me as sweet, mellow, loving and intelligent – an all-round good boy, really. Although their home is new to me, I’ve learnt to navigate it on three legs with ease. I sometimes “back in” through doorways, which they find very endearing!
I’m well adapted to life in a home, and I have experience living alongside other dogs, so no problems there. Like many dogs experiencing big change, I can be a little anxious when left alone, but this is improving with time. Still, I’m looking for a home where I won’t be by myself for long periods, as I enjoy companionship and form strong bonds with my people.
If you’re in the USA and looking for a friend, please consider me. I’m on your doorstep and would love the chance to meet you.
THE ADOPTION PROCESS
Adopting from Soi Dog Foundation is one of the most effective ways to support our work, as each adoption creates the space we need to help another animal in need. It is also incredibly rewarding to give an animal the chance to experience the love and security they so desperately deserve.

Interview
Join a video call with one of our adoption coordinators to help find your perfect match. Discuss the dog’s medical history, behavioural needs and more.
Home Assessment
Complete a home visit – either in person or virtually – with one of our staff or volunteers to ensure you have everything in place to welcome a rescue dog.
