NOENG (Female)

Hello, my name is NOENG. I have two brothers, DAU and NAAG, and two sisters, DUAN and DTONG. At the age of only 6 weeks, we were dumped at a temple without our mother. As we were so young, there was little chance of survival as the older dogs don't care about young puppies and fight us for even the smallest grain of rice. Fortunately for us, we had been taken to the only temple on the island which is looked after by the DRCS: every day one of the DRCS helpers comes by and brings dry food for about 20 to 30 dogs. But it is still a very tough place for puppies and only the strongest survive. When two of us were bitten by big dogs, we were taken to the DRCS, which at that time was overcrowded. After about two weeks in the DRCS, we all got the Parvo Virus: we could not eat and had bloody diarrhoea. Dr Somsak gave infusions for several days and so we survived this normally lethal virus. Now we stand together and are very happy to be here (we have been moved to the big shelter).

Life is better now. I found a home on the island.

While I was in the shelter Romana from Austria took care of me! Thank you very much!
