The story of Buddy.............Buddy was found purely by chance. SoiDog was going into houses in the village of Cherngtalay looking for unsterilised dogs, when they came to a shop house. A typical Thai shop house with workshop in the front, living accommodation behind and a small narrow garden behind. The owner allowed them in and they followed him through to the garden. There in the rain in a cage lying in his own urine was Buddy. It was a typical case of neglect. What had started as probably nothing more than a small bite wound had not been treated and subsequently flies had laid eggs in the wound resulting in the usual maggots eating the flesh away.They took Buddy to a local vets and he made a rapid recovery. 5 weeks later they returned him to his owner with some misgivings but the owner was really happy to see him and only a few days later SoiDog saw him being proudly walked on the beach, a beautiful dog again that did not have to be hidden away any more. The owner was told that any further problems he must contact SoiDog and hopefully learnt his lesson. Buddy when they found him Buddy 5 weeks later!!!!The story of Gee Gee.............The wife of one of SoiDog's dog catchers who is known everywhere as the cat lady on account of the sixty plus cats not forgetting at least a dozen dogs she looks after, regularly travels around the town of Talang seeking out injured and sick dogs and cats to help. Purely by chance she passed a trash bin at the side of the road and heard a noise inside. Removing the lid she found a bag tied up and inside was Gee Gee. Suffering from severe mange and with an injured eye and other wounds and unable to walk properly she called her husband who brought her to the shelter.SoiDog's first reaction was that she should be euthanised, but Dr. Trethep thought otherwise and took her to his clinic. A couple of months later you can see the result and she still lives at Dr. Trethep’s surgery as his girlfriend as he cannot resist small dogs. Gee Gee when they found her Gee Gee now!!!!
