An excellent initiative. I hope this will contribute towards removing more dogs from the sois.

It's a festival by the "Street Dog Lovers" - I'm thinking (hoping) this is just a poorly chosen name? Because sounds like they want to actively encourage streets full of dogs!

Post by Theo »

Close to 30 items will be auctioned off including many from five star hotels offering room stays or food and beverage vouchers. A sampling of those who have donated include V Villas Hua Hin, The InterContinental Resort Hua Hin, The Centara Grand Resort Hua Hin, Let’s Sea Resort, The Anantara Resort Hua Hin, The Dusit Thani Hua Hin, YaiYa Hotel, Putahrasa and The Lapa Hua Hin. Food and beverages will be available for purchase both Saturday and Sunday and there is no cost for attending.

The Hua Hin Street Dog Lovers Carnival is this coming Saturday and Sunday at Chub Cheva restaurant’s outdoor garden. Chub Cheva is located at 2/8 Naebkhehardt Road, near the palace and opposite the beach. Starting at 12 pm on Saturday there will be daytime activities for children. At 6pm on Saturday there will be entertainment with the live auction starting at 7:30.

Sunday there will be puppies available for adoption. Money raised will go towards vaccinating and sterilizing street dogs as well as getting puppies healthy for adoption.

Whether you love street dogs or hate them, it’s in everyone’s best interest to get them vaccinated and neutered.
