Why Volunteer with Second Chance Dog Shelter?

A Sanctuary of Love, Hope, and Dog Rescue

Second Chance Dog Shelter is a haven dedicated to dog rescue, providing love and care to over 90 rescue dogs, including 40 disabled residents. Founded by Adrian, an animal rescue advocate, the organization was created to give Thailand’s street dogs and soi dogs a second chance at life.

Every dog at the shelter has a powerful story of survival. Many have been rescued from neglect, injury, or abuse. Now, they find healing, safety, and love through consistent care and rehabilitation. By volunteering, you’ll play a vital role in this mission, helping rescue dogs on their path to forever homes.
