Rescue Paws is a non-profit organization based in Hua Hin. Their aim is to reduce the ever-growing population of stray dogs in the Pranburi, Hua Hin, and Cha-Am area.
In the last two years, Rescue Paws has sterilized over 550 dogs, facilitated over 50 adoptions, both locally and internationally, treated 23 dogs for cancer with a 100% survival rate, treated over 3,800 dogs for parasites, vaccinated over 1,200 dogs and they currently feed close to 600 dogs regularly.
Thankfully they were selected by the Banyan Resort Hua Hin as the benefactors of 3 Banyan CRS Charity Fairs hosted in August & September, as well as receiving a portion of the profits from several Banyan ‘Meating & Fishing’ dinner evenings.
At an event held on Tuesday September 6th at Rescue Paws Kho Tao location, The Banyan staff came to play with and bathe the dogs as well as present donations. According to Hanli Engelbrecht, Rescue Paws Operations Manager, “We, and all of our furry little residents, would like to thank Banyan for their contribution of 10,000 baht, as well as numerous medical supplies, sanitary supplies, collars, leashes, dog food, and linen. These gifts will help us do so very much more!”
Hanli went on to say, “As amazing as our success has been so far, Rescue Paws cannot do all of this alone, It is only with the support like The Bayan Hua Hin Resort’s today, that we can continue to do what we do. So we’d like to give our biggest thanks and sincerest appreciation to The Banyan Hua Hin Resort for all their efforts to support Rescue Paws. They are the first major resort in local Hua Hin to reach out to Rescue Paws, and we hope that many more will follow their shining example in our quest to create better lives for animals and people alike.”
