Compassion in Action

Every day, Baan Maa, a UK-registered charity, rescues, feeds, and provides urgent veterinary care for stray and neglected dogs in Thailand. Without help, many of these animals would be left to suffer. Together, we can give them safety, healing, and the second chance they deserve.

Our Mission

Baan Maa is a UK-registered animal charity focused on dog rescue in Thailand. We deliver daily food, safe shelter, urgent veterinary treatment, and adoption opportunities for street dogs and community pets.

Rescue & Adoption

Every dog deserves a second chance. When the streets are no longer safe, we rescue them, provide care, and help them find loving forever homes in Thailand and internationally.

Veterinary Help

No dog should suffer without medical help. We cover critical veterinary costs — from life-saving surgery to vaccinations — ensuring stray and community dogs in Thailand receive the treatment they need.

Feeding Runs

Every day, our team delivers meals to hungry street dogs across our community in Thailand. Consistent feeding brings health, hope, and trust to neglected animals.

Our Impact in the First Year

With your support, Baan Maa has already:

Rehomed 10 dogs into loving families

Delivered over 20,000 meals through daily feeding runs

Funded more than £4,000 in essential veterinary treatment

Your donations make this possible – and every pound goes directly towards the dogs.

Adopt a Dog

Give a stray dog in Thailand the gift of a forever home. By focusing on each dog’s unique personality and needs, we ensure they have the best chance to thrive with their new family.
