Upon moving to Koh Samui, Russian Vet Elena Kireeva and her partner Stefan Koenig were immediately struck at the large number of stray and neglected dogs on the island, and their number grew daily due to the lack of sterilization on the island. Many of these animals had been abandoned by owners without sterilization and as such, the number of stray dogs was growing every year. Elena and Stefan decided to start a small charity called Pariah Dog Koh Samui in 2016, with the purpose of relieving the suffering, starvation, abuse and neglect of Koh Samui street dogs by providing medical care, sterilization, vaccination and care. With no corporate funding, Pariah Dog relies on donations, support and the generosity of the global community to continue their life-saving work.
