Poor Bubbles was found at a rubbish dump where she had been living for years with her daughter Prosecco, surrounded by trash. She was in a terrible state; overweight, covered in ticks and fleas with very dirty matted fur.
We brought her to the land to clean her up, and discovered she was also suffering from blood parasites and an eye infection. She received treatment and has made a full recovery.
Since being at the land, Bubbles has started to come out of her shell and has grown in confidence. She is a sweet natured dog, and enjoys being with humans and is no longer shy or nervous as she used to be. She is looking for a patient home who can give her the time and attention she needs to adjust to her new lifestyle.
She would make a lovely companion for someone. She enjoys going on walks with her dog friends and suit either being the only dog in the house or living with another gentle dog. After a recent trip to the groomers, Bubbles' fur has been transformed and she is looking very glamorous as her name suggests!

Prosecco is ready to go to her forever home so a home in Thailand she could go to straight away would be ideal for her!
Prosecco is Bubbles' lovely daughter! They were found together living at a rubbish dump. Like her mother, Prosecco was also in an awful state with dirty matted fur full of fleas and ticks, in desperate need of a wash. She was brought to the land and given a bath, groom and medical treatment for blood parasites.
She is now looking and feeling so much better! Prosecco has made friends with the other dogs and has turned into a very gentle, sweet natured and affectionate dog. She loves people and would make a lovely addition to any home. She would be fine with another dog companion, but she would also be great as the only dog in the household.

Noodles was abandoned on the streets by her previous owners and ended up being cared for by some kind people in the community. She was brought to Happy Doggo land after sadly being hit by a car. She was in terrible pain and suffered a fractured pelvis, fractured ribs and dislocated hips. Poor little Noodles wasn't able to stand up on her hind legs at all and she tried to drag herself around.
However, after a visit to the hospital on the mainland for a big operation followed by daily physio exercises and care back at the land, she has made a remarkable recovery. Noodles is now walking! She is no longer in pain and is enjoying being able to move about by herself again.
Noodles is a very sweet, and gentle little dog who enjoys human attention and she would make a lovely pet, but she does have a few requirements for her new home. She will need ongoing help with physiotherapy and hydrotherapy to continue improving her mobility and encouragement with a few shorts walks everyday to build up the strength in her legs. Non-slippery floors in the home would also benefit her recovery.
Unfortunately for Noodles her vision is poor in both eyes, due to her age and previous neglect, so she needs daily eye drops and regular eye cleaning. Her new family will have to be very careful of her in their home, she often can't see people or other dogs approaching. Due to this, she would be best suited as the only dog in the house and would like to live with people who are at home a lot, perhaps working from home or retired.

Sonny came to Happy Doggo land in a very sorry state, with an even sadder story. He was found alone at the house he once lived in with his family. They left the island and sadly abandoned him to fend for himself. Poor Sonny stayed there for months loyally waiting for them to come back for him, but they never returned.When he was rescued, his skin was in a terrible state, sore, itchy, and infected, in desperate need of attention and Sonny was clearly feeling very sad and confused.
The good news is that since being at Happy Doggo land and undergoing treatment, Sonny’s skin has healed very nicely, his fur has grown back, and he is feeling more himself again.Sonny is a sweet and gentle dog, who enjoys relaxing on the sofa in the office surrounded by people, and going out for walks. He loves human attention and is longing for a home and family of his own again.Sonny is an older dog so he is looking for a home in Thailand he can travel to straight away, with an owner who is around a lot of the day for company. He would be best suited as the only dog in the house.

Pedro first came to us after being spotted on the streets in terrible condition - thin, missing fur, with awful skin troubles. He was scared, didn’t want to be caught and it was a very difficult rescue.Since then, Pedro has become quite a fixture at Happy Doggo land.
His recovery has been long and challenging, he has undergone many tests to find the cause of his medical issues, including a trip to the big hospital on the mainland. It was discovered that Pedro suffers from food allergies, his condition is now managed with medication which he will need to keep taking forever. Since his diagnosis and treatment, he is looking and feeling so much better, his fur has improved but may well not grow back much more, he has quite a unique hairstyle!Pedro is one of our longest residents, it has been almost a year since we rescued him and it is now time to find him a home of his own. He is a real character who is very popular with all the staff and he loves spending the day on the sofa in the office. He will thrive in the right home, but he does have some particular requirements.
Pedro is looking for a home in Thailand he could go to as soon as possible. He is a big, strong dog, who loves going for walks so he is looking for experienced owners in an adult only house, where he would be the only dog. He loves attention from people but is also quite independent minded. A family who can offer him a home to relax in, continue his medication and get him out and about for walks would be ideal for Pedro.

Some of our most commonly asked questions about adopting a dog from Thailand.
We can currently send dogs to the EU, the UK, and the United States. We can also send dogs to most South East Asian countries, depending on exact quarantine requirements.
Please note that we are only able to send dogs to the following airports in the United States: LAX, ATL, MIA, JFK, PHL, IAD.
For UK adoptions, dogs must fly to Paris before commuting over land into the UK.
There are a lot of factors that go into calculating the final adoption price, but for the EU, UK, and US the cost is typically from USD $1,800 - $3,000. If you are selected to adopt one of our dogs, we will take a $500 deposit up front to cover the cost of food and required vaccinations.
From the time we receive an adoption deposit, you can expect it to take 12 weeks until the dog is ready to travel. This is because there are mandatory minimum waiting times between a dog's vaccinations and required antibody testing.
No, not every dog that we treat will be available for adoption. This could be due to the dog's health, their likeliness to adapt well to a home, or simply because they are happy and well cared for on the street. In addition, some dogs (all snub-nosed/bully breeds) are not permitted on airplanes, so they cannot be re-homed outside of Thailand.
This really depends on the dog and their unique background, but we do not do any behavioural or lifestyle training. You can expect most of our dogs to be able to walk comfortably on leash, but you will likely need to work on house/potty training and basic obedience.
We do our best to match every dog to the best household for their specific requirements. We thoroughly review every application and interview all prospective new parents, and at the end of the day we might match potential adopters with a different dog than they originally applied for.
Some helpful information if you're thinking of adopting a street dog.
All of our dogs traveling overseas need a dedicated flight volunteer to escort them home. If you're flying from Thailand to Europe or the United States, you could help a deserving dog get home.
