Rescue & Rehabilitation

Whether it’s the threat of lethal diseases such as parvovirus, canine distemper or TVT, or the harrowing injuries and disabilities caused by the reality of life on the streets, we are on hand to respond to whatever emergency may arise.  

Once a street dog becomes a Jai Dog, they have our promise that we will do whatever it takes to provide for them. Whether nursing them through disease or sickness, or providing life-saving surgery or treatment, we always aim to do what is best for that dog. 

Street dogs in Thailand often linger at the side of the road during the day, hopeful that they may come across discarded food, and at night many enjoy the warmth of the tarmac. Accidents are very common, rarely reported, and animals are often left to suffer or die from their injuries. 

Our veterinary team frequently save victims of car accidents who would otherwise perish. With treatment, many are able to walk again, others may need an amputation or a wheelchair. We never give up on an injured dog, no matter how severe their injuries.

After a dog has been rescued and assessed, a treatment plan is put in place to ensure they have the best chance of a successful recovery. Some of our more serious rescue cases may require specialist treatment and rehabilitation.  

We provide wheelchairs for dogs who have become paralysed, and ensure they enjoy at least two walks a day along with the other dogs on the farm. 

Not all dogs are able to find happiness in a home of their own. After a harrowing life on the street, factors such as temperament, disability and difficulty adapting to change can mean that some animals are happier living out their lives in our shelter.
