    Description

    We are couple living in Koh Kood for 10 years and taking care of island animals. In our home we live with 26 rescued dogs who are blind, disabled, old or sick. Over the years we managed to control stray dogs popullation but in order to maintain stability and healthy lifestyle for animals there is a need of constant proper medical care as well as spaying and neutering strays.

    Help

    LOOKING FOR VET ONLY who could perform spaying/neutering of dogs and cats as well as provide life-saving help for sick, injured animals. There is no strict shift hours but you must be available when emergency occurs, sterilizations can happen few days a week. Sometimes there will be no vet stuff to do so we would expect volunteer to help around the house, including: bathing the dogs, cleaning, general work in the garden.
