Rescue P.A.W.S. is a not-for-profit organization working closely with the local community to reduce the number of stray animals in our region. We provide sterilization, medical treatment, and rehabilitation to stray animals and pets from low-income areas.

Our day visit program gives you the opportunity to gain hands-on experience while spending meaningful time with our rescued animals. It’s an unforgettable interaction — and you may even find yourself leaving with adoption papers in hand.

Your day includes a drive through the back roads of Pranburi, passing lush pineapple fields and quiet rural scenery, with time spent at our new purpose-built clinic. You’ll also join our team and dogs on peaceful countryside walks, giving you a real feel for life beyond the tourist trail — and a chance to see our dogs at their happiest.

Making a positive difference

A hands on experience with the staff and volunteers at P.A.W.S. They recently moved to a new location, which meant we didn’t do a beach walk but that was o.k. They were very good at communicating the changes and the new location is much better for the animals. After a tour of the clinic we took some lovely dogs for a walk, had lunch with some amazing staff and volunteers, and then rode out to several locations for the feeding run. Would highly recommend if you are looking for something to do that promotes positive animal welfare.
We booked this trip 6mths...

We booked this trip 6mths ago and had been really looking forward to spending a day of our holiday doing something really worthwhile. Sadly, despite having received confirmation at the time and having only just paid the balance a week ago, no one arrived to collect us from our hotel on the day of the tour and we sat waiting in reception for an hour, before giving up and contacting both Rescue Paws and Viator. To give them credit, Rescue Paws replied fairly promptly and offered us a full refund, and the reason given (their relocation to new premises this week) was genuine. However, as someone who has spent my working life in animal welfare and totally understands the importance of good customer service, a quick email, WhatsApp or message via my Viator account would have been greatly appreciated, even if it had been late last night or early this morning. Every holiday, I carefully research and select an animal charity in the country I am visiting, to spend time at and then support and promote back home afterwards and whilst I totally understand that plans can change, I'm bitterly disappointed in the lack of communication and wasted morning of our precious holiday, when we could have arranged a different day out if we'd known.
Heartwarming Experience with a Purpose

I had an amazing time visiting Rescue P.A.W.S in Hua Hin! The staff and volunteers are so passionate and dedicated to helping the dogs, and you can truly feel the love and care they provide. The experience was both fun and educational — I got to interact with the dogs, learn about their rescue efforts, and see firsthand the positive impact they’re making in the community. If you love animals or want to do something meaningful during your trip, I highly recommend spending a day here. It’s not just a great activity but also a wonderful way to support a truly inspiring cause.
Absolutely 💯 fab!

It was a wonderful day and I felt very lucky to see first hand the wonderful work this charity does. It educated me about the dog population of Thailand and I also got to interact with the wonderful dogs and cats of the centre. I will always remember fudge (who has no hind legs but a big personality) running on the beach with such joy and enthusiasm and Trevi the lovely pup who got adopted to England and bunrod, who had just had an amputation but was being comforted by a lovely English guy to help him heal. I met wonderful volunteers who reminded me that being a tourist could be rewarding and not just self-centred. And Luke the manager was so kind and focussed on the mission. Finally, I was educated on the dog packs and street dogs and saw the healthy and happy doggos of the packs they help each day. And I fell in love with Luna - a beautiful girl who I know will be ok because of rescue paws. Thank you!
A trip for the mind, body and soul (for animal lovers!)

It was heartwarming and inspiring to spend the day at Rescue Paws. As a day visitor you get to see the impact they have by their sterilization program which makes a significant dent in the over population, and therefore, potential suffering of animals on the street. We joined the regular volunteer teams, walking the shelter dogs on the beach and then we went out into the back streets, alleys and coconut glades of HuaHin to feed the strays. It was one of the most beautiful experiences, seeing their happy faces and wagging tales when we came with our truck laden with food and water. I would highly recommend visiting this organization and supporting them, they do great work.
Amazing Experience!!

My visit to PAWS Rescue was a well organised, fantastic day. The guys at the centre were brilliant and so welcoming and didn't mind the many questions I had about the dogs, they way they are cared for, which is nothing short of amazing, and how they live their lives in Hua Hin. We took the dogs walking along a beautiful beach, which included the ones that had to use a little buggy or had their own wheels for legs. No doggo that was allowed to be out was left out. We had some lunch then it was off to feed the many packs that live in the area. My favourite was Ghost Pack but they are all lovely and were so excited to see us. This was the best day of my time in Thailand and can't recommend this experience highly enough. The work these guys do for the dogs is so needed here and I am already thinking about how I can come back next year to volunteer my time for a few weeks. Special thanks to Ryan who spent the day looking after our group and injecting a lot of education and a little bit of humour.
Really rewarding

We were picked up efficiently from our hotel in Hua Hin and on arrival we had a short briefing with Ryan along with a guide of how the day would pan out. We first joined the volunteers and staff to walk the dogs to the beach with it being a Monday and having gone two days without walks theee was some extreme enthusiasm shown by some of the dogs. I had the pleasure of walking Willow who wanted to be first to the beach but last to leave! On returning to the sanctuary all the dogs were showered and cleaned having been in the sea but Willow having been slow to return wanted to hide as clearly did not like fresh water as much as sea water. We then joined Ryan, Hollie and Vicky for lunch at a local restaurant upon returning from lunch we joined two of the volunteers with Ryan and our driver to visit and feed several local street/jungle packs of dogs. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and would recommend that any dog lover spend a day here and help support PAWS
