Save Our Street Dogs - Mani





A woman, who used to run a shelter with 31 dogs and 62 cats, abandoned her dogs and cats, and ran away without a trace. 

The cats have been relocated. 26 dogs are left, who no one can take in. They were going to be put to sleep. I couldn't let that happen, so SOSD has taken over the shelter, against all common sense.

Because the dogs have all been caged up for years, many of them are not well socialised, even aggressive. Many are known to be heartworm positive and ill. It is going to be SOSD's greatest challenge yet. I have spent many nights wondering how we can pull this off. 

We need all the help we can get - media coverage, funds, volunteers. Any help is appreciated. Please help spread the word Please email sostreetdog@gmail.com if you can help. 


Mani is one of the 26 dogs left behind by the woman who ran away and abandoned her 26 dogs. 

When I visited this morning, she did not look well, and she was sent to the vet immediately. She is fighting for her life now - she just vomitted blood and is not looking well. 

SOSD has formally taken over Mdm Yap shelter officially this morning. Mani is the first of the numerous challenges we must overcome to help the 26 dogs who were left for dead the woman who used to run the shelter ran away , abandoning the dogs who had trusted her. 

The road ahead is going to be even tougher. 

Most of them are not well socialised. Many of them are ill. I have spent many sleepless nights, and lost alot of weight wondering how I can pull this off.

Please help me. Please help SOSD help these dogs. We took over these lives which no one wanted anymore. Because I believe they deserve better than to spend their lives in a cage, used as a tool for a crook to collect money, then abandoned to die when she felt she had collected enough. 

Please pray for Mani. I'm devastated. I should have brought her to the vet sooner. 

We need volunteers. Many of you. 
We need money - Sponsor a kennel will reopen to fund this new shelter. Rnuning cost of 4000 a month. 
We need money to treat the sick dogs there, many who we know are infected with heartworm. 
We need anyone who can help to do minor and major renovation works, for the shelter needs a major makeover. 



Please help to share.

Review ~ The Girl in the Ice by Robert Bryndza

  I'd give this 3.5 stars. It's his first book so there's that.  The plot ran smoothly with realistic dynamics between character...
