This experience was amazing!! The host, carl, is so sweet and kind and is always there if you need help with anything at all! What they do at this foundation is so inspiring and they have saved soo many animals lives in Thailand, it was a pleasure to be apart of it.

My experience at the shelter Army was wonderful. The work was manageable and I got to meet many other international volunteers! I am grateful for the rare opportunity to observe several surgeries during my time there, and I absolutely adore the residents. We had a good amount of time to explore the area during our breaks and days off. Overall, it was a very eye-opening experience for me and I would recommend it to anyone who loves animals!

Had a great time over there! great for veterinary students who wants to learn more about surgery and the shelter missions (optional to go). the puppies and dogs there were really friendly! there's a few slightly aggressive ones but it's managed by the local volunteer there so it was all good :D the living conditions were not bad, there's a laundry machine, AC, proper toilet and everything. met many friendly worldpackers there too :)

As an aspiring vet student, I really enjoyed my experience at the shelter Army, since not only did i get to care for animals with disabilities (which I didn't really have any experience in beforehand), but I also got to witness and assist in surgeries. The place was nice and very authentic, I particularly enjoyed the night market, although it closes quite early. The team was always available for my needs before, during and after my stay. Overall a positive experience!
