What it does

Hope for Strays Foundation is a Pattaya-based non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of stray dogs. It runs a shelter caring for a large number of dogs — reported as well over a hundred — and works on vaccination, sterilisation, medical treatment and street feeding alongside rehoming.

Adopting and helping

Healthy, vaccinated and sterilised dogs are available for adoption. As with any reputable rescue, expect a conversation about your home and lifestyle so the right dog is matched to the right family.

If you cannot adopt, fostering, volunteering and donating all make a real difference — shelters run on exactly that support.

Frequently asked

Are pets from Hope for Strays vaccinated and sterilised?

Reputable rescues rehome animals vaccinated and sterilised, and are open about each animal's health. Confirm the specifics for any animal directly with the organisation.

I am leaving Thailand — can I adopt and take the pet with me?

Often yes. Many rescues support adopters in relocating an animal abroad. Plan early and read our guide to taking a pet out of Thailand — the rabies titer test in particular needs lead time.
