Niall , When you arrived in Thailand ( not that long ago ) you were but 1 man who found himself unexpectedly on a mission . Think back to then and just how far you’ve come in a relatively short amount of time . What you’ve achieved already is huge ! You don’t give yourself enough credit , I’m sure I’m not alone in wanting to say ‘ thank you ‘ for all you have done and for all you plan to do . Thank-you seems so inadequate considering what you do on a daily basis . Never change Niall , you have the most beautiful heart and soul and some might say ‘ You’re the best boy there ever was😁

I do not know how you keep the tank filled Niall, you seem to have endless internal resources. I am truly in awe of your abilities, attitude and determination. Seeing those folks lined up for to have their dogs sterilized is so encouraging. Clearly, if you put some help in place, the locals are willing to participate. That is amazing. Keeping my fingers crossed for Shaq and looking at all my labels for Xylitol - great info for us at home.

You are the first thing I check on in the morning, the last thing at night, and a few times inbetween too! I’m in awe of you and your team and I wish I could give you more, but in a quite cruel world I am heartened by the goodness of all your followers - thank you for all the updates, know that you are appreciated worldwide.

Now I am moved to tears (again), but cannot stop smiling too. Stitch goes to Oliver and Jack! This is such a heartwarming decision.

Your motivation and PMA is such an inspiration, both for the dogs and for yourself. You’re the reason I stay on social media, a bright shiny light in a dark world. xxoo.

As always, I can only say "THANK YOU"! For so much heart and energy and strength, that you invest in all the wonderful dogs. I am happy about every post you write, every video. It gives me strength and hope. I have to admit, that I still have to learn that. How not to run out of strength. How not to be hopeless or frustrated, when I look around in this world and see how people treat animals. I am so grateful, that you set an example for all the people who feel motivated and inspired by you, to be good to animals and perhaps become active in animal welfare themselves. As you have shown, one person can make an infinite difference! Thank you Niall! And also THANK YOU to your great team and the entire "HappyDoggo-Land"-family! :)

What you say is so pertinent and has actually made me change my mind in regards to volunteering. I had been helping out at a dog shelter for months but found myself weighed down emotionally thinking about them waiting in their kennels for 12hrs every night and only getting to go out for a little in the morning and at night. I just couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel and you ve put it into perspective. There are so many people like you around the world, being heroes and persevering thru, you are an inspiration and watching you do it makes me want to do the tiny little part I can. Thankyou and never forget you as well in all of this.

Incredible mission you are on! I’ve realized I have attachment issues because I probably would keep them all. Oh how I love Cindy just like I do Tina. If I didn’t have 5 dogs, I’d bring her to California to walk the beach like Brad Pitt 💕

Thank you for these updates, Niall. It takes a lot of your time, but it really helps us to understand your situation on a deeper, wider level. With that better understanding, we all are with you on a more meaningful level. Just keep being you - you are everything you need to be. Much love to you, everyone working with you and those precious doggos. 💕💕💕

Niall you do a fantastic job with the resources you have. We lived in India for many years and the street dog problem there is also huge but there are NGO's there working to make a difference. Just keep doing your great work, one step at a time.
