Lipe |
| BRIEF HISTORY: The gorgeous Lipe came from the island of Koh Lipe and was brought to LAW so we could have a look at his back leg which he was limping on. After xrays and assessments we discovered that Lipe’s break was old and had mostly healed by itself. Lipe was a beach dog and had people that would feed him but not his own family. Since he is such a fantastic character we decided to try and find him his own family because he deserves it!
CHARACTER: Lipe is a an amazing dog, playful and loving. He is great with cats and is a hit with all our volunteers and visitors. Lipe is a very happy boy and is always wagging his tail. He has recently discovered the fun that can be had with toys and balls and is learning to play fetch. APPROX YEAR OF BIRTH: 2013 |

Pumpkin |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Came to LAW as a small puppy with several broken bones, after being hit by a car. We treated him and now he is as good as new and ready to be adopted!
CHARACTER: Pumpkin is very playful and affectionate and also good with other dogs. He is a bit of a clown and loves fooling around and can be the most sweetest character you’ve ever seen. Pumpkin needs some serious lovin’ that not everyone can give. If you are special, Pumpkin will know because there really is no one like Pumpkin out there. APPROX YEAR OF BIRTH: 2012 |

Buddy |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Buddy was brought from Koh Phi Phi in very poor condition, underweight and with very bad skin. He has now made a full recovery and is looking for his forever home. CHARACTER: A loveable, cheeky boy. He has shown some aggression towards cats and smaller animals, but he is making good progress with this. He is incredibly sweet, playful and with the right home will be an amazing dog. YEAR OF BIRTH: June 2012 |

Sanchez |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Sanchez came to us from a sea gypsy village near Old Town with a large wound on his neck, having been attacked by a group of dogs. His wound healed up in late 2010 so we released him, but had to take him back when it reopened soon after. CHARACTER: A gentle, friendly dog, Sanchez likes nothing better than lying down on the sofa and having his belly rubbed. He is not good with cats though! APPROX YEAR OF BIRTH: 2007 | |

Wayne |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Wayne once belonged to someone but was abandoned near Saladan in Koh Lanta.He lived by the sea forlonging for love and attention which the other dogs couldn’t understand, so they started to pick on him and made Wayne’s life even more miserable. Slowly Wayne started to lose his lovely black coat and developed a skin irritation that needed to be treated regularly. It seemed he never really recovered fully from this heartbreak and couldn’t cope on his own. In the end we brought Wayne to the center to see if we could find him another new owner who can love him for life.
CHARACTER: Wayne is a very laid back boy and nothing really bothers him. He gets on well with dogs, cats, people and any other creature that comes his way. He has got very attached to our founder Junie and she is really the love of his life (for the moment!!!). APPROX YEAR OF BIRTH: 2011 |

Aladdin- |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Aladdin was brought in as a puppy for an injury he had but, he couldnt go back to where he was because the area was deemed to be unsafe. So the boy stayed back to see if he could capture the heart of someone who’d give him a loving and safe home.
CHARACTER: Aladdin doesnt care about what other people or dogs think of him. So we need someone who can make him realize it is a bit impolite to be that over confident about himself. However if you ever wanted to enter a dog to the World’s fastest eating contest well here is your best candidate on this side of Thailand. After all of his cheeky moves end of the day he will know to look at you with those heart melting brown eyes and you know he’s got you for life! YEAR OF BIRTH: June 2015 |

Oscar |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Oscar was seen on the island last year mostly in bars and cafes as a happy and well looked after dog. However earlier this year we started to notice that he was making his way South of the island and that he was searching for food but still happy and in good health. He was a happy beach dog but now no proper person to look after him and with low season and food getting more and more scarce we eventually took him into the centre to see how gets along in the shelter environment
CHARACTER: Oscar has the looks and the personality both. He gets along with other dogs and his best friend is Don. However he is fast becoming bored of being at the centre and not being able to enjoy the freedom that he was one used to so we are hoping we will find someone who can give him a happy home soon! YEAR OF BIRTH: May 2014 |

BONJOUR-adopted to the UK 🙂 |
| BRIEF HISTORY: Bonjour once belong to a family on the island but they had to leave Thailand due to personal reasons and left Bonjour with a foster. The fostering did not go down well where Bonjour was not happy in his new setting. However the original owners weren’t contactable either and to cut a long story short Bonjour ended up having being taken into LAW.
CHARACTER: Bonjour has the most laid back personality and is no trouble getting along well with all sorts of doggie characters! and kids. He is not the biggest fan of walks but once he gets to the beach he is in his element and see an even better side to him. Bonjour is good for any climate, terrain or geography and would be a great companion for any age, gender or personality 😀 YEAR OF BIRTH: 2006 |
