The 27 dogs from a shelter in Chonburi, Thailand, appeared to be beaming from ear to ear as enjoyed a stroll with their wheel aides
With tails wagging to a chorus of barks and yelps, dozens of disabled dogs attached to wheels that support their disabled hind legs looked ecstatic as they took their daily walk at a sanctuary in Thailand.
Mostly victims of accidents, the 27 dogs are being nursed back to health at a shelter in Thailand’s province of Chonburi southeast of the capital, Bangkok.
They beamed from ear to ear as they took to the rocky track with their wheels for their dose of exercise for the day.
‘It’s almost like they have no idea that they have a disability and once you put them in the wheelchair for the first time, it’s like there’s no learning curve,’ said shelter official Christopher Chidichimo.
Thanks to mobility devices, the disabled dogs were able to get some much needed outside exercise in Chonburi, Thailand
During their exercise outing at the shelter, the disabled dogs were even joined by some strays who decided to join in with all the fun

Shelter official Christopher Chidichimo said ‘It’s almost like they have no idea that they have a disability’ once the dogs are placed in the wheelchairs for the first time
The shelter, run by a foundation called The Man That Rescues Dogs, was set up by a Swede who moved to Chonburi in 2002 and was so dismayed by the poor condition of strays that he started caring for them after work.
But its future is now in doubt, after the coronavirus pandemic led to a 40 per cent drop in donations and slashed the number of foreign visitors.
‘The donations are very important and the volunteers and visitors are equally important, because they come and spread our message,’ said Chidichimo, who is a sponsorship coordinator at the shelter.
The shelter spends more than $1,300 (£946.42) each day to care for more than 600 dogs and feed 350 more that live on the streets.

The shelter takes care of a range of dogs from different backgrounds and even offers physiotherapy sessions
Its volunteers also look after paralysed and disabled dogs, including physiotherapy sessions, but scarce funds have forced it to suspend a monthly campaign to spay and neuter strays.
Thailand, estimated to have more than 800,000 stray cats and dogs in 2017, could see their number reach 2 million by 2027 and 5 million in 20 years unless it takes some steps to control numbers, livestock authorities says.
For now, the disabled dogs in Chonburi enjoy their daily rambles. ‘They are eager for us to strap them up,’ said dog handler Phanuphong Borphuak, referring to the canine mobility aids.
‘They run very fast, we humans can’t keep up with them.’

After their energetic walk the dogs enjoyed a boy of food after working up quite the appetite with their running around
The Poor Dog Was Hit By A Car And Was Thrown Into An Abandoned House. Is Everything Waiting For Her Is DEATH?
Noah the dog was stuck in a nightmare and couldn’t wake up. The hell she went through is hard to repeat or write about.
Despite her cute appearance, she was nothing more than a dirty stray dog. That upset some sick people so much that they decided to cause her serious harm.
Where she continued to live for days, under the sun and rain and tried to survive in this terrible situation.
They laughed at her pain all the time.
Every weak breath made all of us who saw her think that she would leave this world at any moment.
Her body was so thin that every bone could be counted. From the day we picked up Noah, a long road of healing began. Her entire past will be left behind
We want to convey meaningful rescue stories through each post to spread the message: “Protect animals” because they, like humans, want to live and be loved.

So Horrible ! Puppy Was Strangled And Swallowed To Death By A Giant Snake..
That day we went to visit the stray dogs, but when vwfa arrived, the whole scene made us completely scared!
A big snake is tightening around her neck, oh my god!
Despite our fear, we know that if we don’t act now the puppies will die.. No protective gear, no tools, I used my hands to pull that huge snake out of the puppy.. but the truth is not that simple..
The dogs are hungry and quite weak, maybe because they are too hungry, maybe they can’t breathe.. I saw tears falling from their eyes.. so pitiful! After a period of trying with the help of our teammates, we were able to rescue the small dogs, God bless them!
Luckily I brought milk with me, the hungry little dogs drank it very well, that’s great!
There was a small dog that after drinking milk lay down to sleep right at my feet It was really lucky, I injured my hand but I think we did the right thing.
Thank you everyone for following and supporting us. Every comment or share contributes to promoting the protection as well as rescuing and nurturing our beloved animals. I hope every creature above the world is happy!
