Gill Dalley is a really wonderful woman. Thanks to Gill and her husband who founded the Soi Dog rescue, stray dogs and cats in Thailand now have a hope. And they work hard in their fight against the dog meat trade in Thailand and now Vietnam.
Soi Dog also has a merchandise page where proceeds go to support the work they do.

They ship all over the world and have some nice items. Some of the gifts which can be purchased are for the dogs and cats in the Rescue (such as Rabies shots for 5 dogs....etc)
This made me think....much of the dreadful abuse street dogs and strays suffer in Asia (and other countries such as east Europe) is caused by long-standing hatred of these dogs....brought about very often by the fear of Rabies.
And when I looked at the cost of the shots, it works out at only £2 per dog. That's just a little over $3......the cost of a big bar of chocolate.
Just think -if a million people gave $3...what a change that could start to bring about....?
