If seeing the street dogs & cats in Koh Samui upsets you, and if you're a good person & animal lover, instead of turning a blind-eye... why not do something about it?
Try something different during your holidays and volunteer at the Dog Rescue Centre Samui!
The centre is owned and run by Brigitte and her husband Werner (both German, but fluent in English). It opened its doors in April 1999 and carries out the following activities: To inject all stray dogs and cats against rabies. To sterilize all dogs and cats by castration. To treat dogs suffering from mange. To deworm all dogs and cats. To treat all stray dogs & cats in the event of injury or sickness and give them somewhere to rest.
The centre either captures, sterilizes, vaccinates and releases healthy dogs, or allows older or injured dogs to stay at their large shelter to live a happy and healthy life. Not only dogs, but also cats are helped by the DRCS and Brigitte and Werner also try to re-home animals on the island, or even help tourists wishing to adopt a dog/cat and transporting them to their home country at the end of their holiday in Samui!
If you would like help on your holiday please visit the Dog Rescue Center Samui which is located close to the Laem Din Market in Chaweng. When your holiday has ended you can sponsor a dog or cat for only USD 15.- / EURO 15.- a month! Check out their website and experience a holiday with a difference.
