Hello mate, I don't know Niall.
There used to be quite a few that came up on my facebook algo, Soi Dog Foundation, The Sound of Animals, Michael Chour, Bodhi Shelter Phuket etc.
Frankly, most of them have a screw loose, but in a great way. In a more selfless way than I could ever have. The one i support is Bodhi Shelter Phuket. Fantastic lady who gave up everything, literally a very plush life to spend it saving street dogs. I went a few times and helped and even a half day session knackered me. Dunno how she manages to do it all year round, non stop. It's a struggle for them physically, emotionally and financially.
Anyway great to see you pop in too! I hope you are well! There was a while we talked every day via Skype I think. I don't even know how many years since I even logged in. I'd have thought maybe close to 10. No clue what my login is.
What are you doing these days?
Sorry to hear about Max. My boys are getting old. One is so old I'm considering changing his name to Tikay.
Will you get another?
His instagram is fantastic, and 'Happy Doggo Land' feed well over a thousand dogs a day now across Koh Samui.
He has partnered up with quite a few other outfits across Thailand now, and with more Thai peoople involved they're getting some traction with the government to aid with sterilisations etc.
He started just feeding a few street dogs each day, and now it's a huge charitable organisation, he just lives with his 2 dogs and now that it has gotten so big he hates that he has to spend more time travelling around for meetings etc.
I get tired watching it, but can imagine it's much less manic than his old life as a city boy that drank far too much!
I was about a week ago years old when I found out Skype isn't even a thing anymore, so that's two of us... Last time I used it will have been about 10 years ago when I used to use it to call Vegas hotels to sort problems with bookings.
I'm still living the dream and have been promoted to chief driver since dad passed... I'm still in mortgages and just about keeping myselfy in takeaways and show tickets

He had the best run of the 3 we had, and just made it to 13, which is some going for a spaniel. Max was almost as old as Tikay at 91 in our years.
Probably not for the moment as mum still works part time, and I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on a younger one through the day. With Max it was ideal as he just slept all day and would only pop his head into the office for a treat

I imagine another will appear once she retires and is home all the time.
