What it does
Founded in 2018, Ady G. Second Chance Pattaya runs a sanctuary for disabled and rescued dogs in central Pattaya — home to well over eighty dogs at times. The project focuses on dogs that would otherwise receive little help when injured or abandoned on the street, providing housing, food and medical care.
Adopting from Ady G. Second Chance Pattaya
Adoption may be possible for suitable homes. Contact the sanctuary directly to ask about the dogs in its care, visiting arrangements and how you can help as a donor or volunteer. Many sanctuary dogs need patient owners — see choosing a dog for Pattaya’s climate for the wider picture on care and exercise.
If you cannot adopt, fostering, volunteering and donating all make a real difference — shelters run on exactly that support.
Visiting, fostering and volunteering
Most Pattaya rescues are small teams on tight budgets, not tourist attractions. Message or email before you visit, wear closed shoes, and expect noise, strong smells and animals in various states of health. Children can visit when the organisation agrees, but supervise closely — frightened rescue dogs may not behave like pets at home.
Volunteering often means cleaning, feeding, walking sociable dogs or helping with laundry — not only cuddling puppies. Donations of cash, food and medicine are usually welcome; ask what they need this week rather than assuming.
After you adopt in Pattaya
After adoption, schedule a vet check within the first week even if the rescue has vaccinated and sterilised the animal. Register and microchip as soon as practical, read dog registration in Thailand for dogs, and confirm your condo or landlord allows pets — see pet-friendly housing. Routine care: cat vaccinations, dog vaccinations, and spaying & neutering if not already done. Flying abroad later? Start the export process months ahead — the rabies titer test cannot be rushed.

Frequently asked
Are pets from Ady G. Second Chance Pattaya vaccinated and sterilised?
Reputable rescues rehome animals vaccinated and sterilised, and are open about each animal's health. Confirm the specifics for any animal directly with the organisation before you commit.
Does Ady G. Second Chance Pattaya charge an adoption fee?
Many rescues ask for a donation or adoption fee to cover vaccinations, sterilisation and food. Amounts vary — ask directly. A fee is normal; unusually high pressure for cash without paperwork is a red flag.
I am leaving Thailand — can I adopt and take the pet with me?
Often yes. Many rescues support adopters in relocating an animal abroad. Plan early and read our guide to the export process — the rabies titer test in particular needs lead time.
How do I visit or volunteer?
Contact the organisation directly via its website or Facebook page to ask about visiting hours, volunteering and fostering. PattayaPets does not coordinate visits — always arrange ahead.
Can I foster before adopting from Ady G. Second Chance Pattaya?
Many rescues welcome fosters — it frees kennel space and lets you learn the animal's temperament. See our fostering guide and ask the organisation what they need.
What should I ask before adopting a rescue pet?
Ask about vaccinations, sterilisation, behavioural history, any medical needs, bite history, and what support the rescue offers after adoption. See our adopt a pet in Pattaya hub for the wider picture.
Can foreigners adopt in Thailand?
Yes — rescues regularly place animals with expat and tourist adopters. You need a stable home, commitment to vaccinations and registration, and realistic plans if you may leave Thailand later.
What if my condo does not allow pets?
Do not adopt until housing is sorted — returning an animal is traumatic for everyone. Read pet-friendly housing and get written permission from your landlord or juristic person where possible.
