We rescue and re-home a lot of dogs.

I’ve never seen the team as emotional as saying goodbye to Panda today.

What a comeback he had and what a life he is off to live… (1/7) 🧵

We were called to him collapsed outside a 7-11 trying to cool down.

He only had a day or 2 to live at most. (2/7)

As soon he came to us he went downhill. His body nearly gave up.

He spent 10 days in ICU. His bill was about $3000 and I thought it might end up being a huge waste of money as his outlook was so bleak (3/7)

With a lot of work and patience we fixed Panda’s health issues.

He also lost 15kg or about 35 lbs. he looks amazing now (4/7)

Panda was our “house dog” at @wearehappydoggo . No restricted area, free roaming and always with a human.

He’s just an angel with other dogs and humans. But he deserved a forever home also (5/7)

He is traveling to live on a farm in Scotland.

I had to tell all the team that he’ll have his very own humans there and that it opens up space for the next Panda to come into us (6/7)

It’s not easy to say goodbye but all we can do is promise to send them off to forever homes in a better state than when we found them.

Travel safely Panda 🙏🥰 (7/7)

You can follow beautiful Panda’s trip to Scotland over on my insta…

A follow there helps so much 🥰🙏 instagram.com/niall.harbison

Last October he was shot five times here in Thailand.

I used to feed Bog Red Brendan in the jungle daily. He didn’t know what had happened to cause him so much pain.

Today he arrived at his new home… (1/7) 🧵

At first I didn’t even know he’d been shot. I fed him every day but it looked like a dog fight at first.

X rays soon proved it was bullets. 5 of them. He was very lucky. I took him straight in (2/7)

He was our first ever patient in Tina’s hospital and the vets got the bullets out.

He is a little wary of humans but his health quickly returned and we set out to find him a safe home (3/7)

He is enjoying having a couch (2/5)

Rocky has been out and about in the parks all day meeting dogs and humans.

75 days ago Rocky was found alone, terrified, blind and hours from death.

Many people told me to “put him to sleep”.

Today I am very happy to share that his comeback is complete… (1/10) 🧵

Rocky had some of the worst test results I’ve ever seen.

The local vets gave me a somber look.

He was so weak he kept collapsing on me the first day (2/10)

It’s hard to know how he ended up on the beach where 2 Russian ladies found him. Probably dumped as someone thought he was done.

It was the ladies who called him Rocky in the hope of a comeback (3/10)

2.5 weeks since we found little Espresso Martini poisoned and taking her last breaths.

The progress has been very slow but some fairly positive news… (1/6) 🧵

We are now confident her broken rib came from frantic locals trying to give her CPR when she was frothing at the mouth. (2/6)

For 10 days she had no power in her body. The poison has done serious damage.

At first she couldn’t lift her head (3/6)

One of the loveliest stories ever.

We got a call about a dog in Thailand who was suffering in the heat. He had been kicked out in the streets.

Never did we think it would end like this… (1/6) 🧵

Shaggy was terrified and tried the flying bite. Anything to get away from what he thought was danger (2/6)

I’m took us a couple of months to fix him up. He was very broken and very sick.

Soon his smile returned. (3/6)

3 weeks ago I found little Skye on a building site. She couldn’t move because she’d been hit by a car or another big trauma.

This is how it was going to end for her.

Today she’s doing great… (1/7) 🧵

The little ticks and fleas were eating her alive. We later found her leg had been broken and fused back together.

Our biggest hope was that she was so young. About 3 months old… (2/7)
