This wholesome story of Naill Haribson’s life mission to help stray dogs in Thailand will melt your heart. From his daily food drop-offs to feed the street doggos, to the healthcare he helps provide to injured dogs, to the loving homes he helps find them. 

Does Thailand Really Have That Many Street Dogs?

There are around 8.5 million dogs in Thailand. Of which close to 730,000 owners abandon them to fend for themselves. These street dogs, locally referred to as soi dogs face nature’s elements daily and are typically unvaccinated. Making their survival even more difficult.

What Happens To Them?

These street dogs fend for themselves when it comes to food and shelter. Some live in packs while others cruise on their own. Most of these street dogs are not sterilized, meaning they can reproduce with other street dogs – which leads to an increase in dogs living on the streets. 

Soi Dogs

Most of these street dogs have no one to help them when they are ill or injured. This is where Naill enters the picture. Originally from Ireland, he made Thailand his home with the mission to help as many dogs as possible. 

What Does He Do?

On his Instagram page, you can see Nail packs his scooter with food every day. With this food, he feeds between 80 and 100 street dogs daily- you should see how excited they get when they hear the scooter coming! This might seem a small feat, but in the long run, these doggos are saved from starvation and fighting for their survival. 

Medical Help

His care for these street pups doesn’t stop at dinner, Naill also helps many sick and injured dogs. If he comes across a pup in need he makes sure they get to the vet to receive the medical care they need. He shares each of their special stories on his Instagram page – which I highly recommend for a wholesome scroll.

Happy Doggo
