Huge progress on my dog saving mission

The more I help the dogs the more I learn how to make a bigger impact. Feeding them is great but there are 3 ways to make a much bigger difference…

1. Sterilising

2. Finding them homes

3. Medical care

All three are the hardest and most expensive parts of this but they have a much bigger impact in terms of cutting down the suffering.

Feeding the dogs is of course important but if I missed it for a couple of days it wouldn’t be the end of the world. The dogs will scavenge food from somewhere but they can’t take themselves to the vet, stop having babies or find their own forever homes!

A Good Week

I was flat out last week but when I sat down and looked at the results for a 7 day period they spoke for themselves…

When I was in ICU in hospital because of addiction I said to myself that If I could just survive I would no longer lead a selfish life. I said to myself “Next time I am here in a hospital bed about to die I want to have done stuff that changes the world for the better”.

I think I’ve been true to my word to myself. Now I want to speed things up. There is so much suffering out there that needs eradicating.

The Perfect Ending

This is little Bear who I found dumped in the jungle and who I think has been my biggest success to date. She would certainly have died within a day without a mother and with the 30C heat.

It took a lot of work with friends and people helping out but I got her to a home in Bangkok. Bear will lead a happy life now and I can’t explain how this makes me feel. I have an addictive personality and I want more of this feeling!

1000s Of Puppies Being Stopped

Sterilising has always been a huge part of what I want to do. I’m now up to 57 dogs since the 1st April which means that there are 1000s of dogs who are not going to come into this world.

I can go to sleep at night now knowing that the suffering of 1000s of dogs has been avoided. It is a tiny drop in the ocean and only the start of my goals but I am starting to see a real impact. Scaling this up is going to be crucial.

Insane Support

Every time I sit down to have my dinner and read the messages I am blown away by the support. I really think it has touched a nerve with people as there is just so much bad news out there. I have a lot of bad stuff to deal with on the dogs too but there is no point being down about it and negative. I just have to tackle what I can in front of me daily and share the wins.

It would probably be quite a lonely endeavour were it not for social media and people urging me on. As well as the dogs I feel like I don’t want to let all the people down who support me. I suppose that feeds into being sober too.

If I was to start drinking again who would look after all the dogs and make little videos to make people smile? The world would go on but I like to use that thought to push me on daily.

It’s been a good week but even bigger things are coming which I can’t wait to share!

Thanks for reading and hope you are all well
