About us

At Robs Dogs, we are a passionate group of volunteers dedicated to
protecting and preserving wild dogs and cats, working to create a safer,
healthier environment for these often-overlooked animals.

Our Vision and Mission

Rob’s Dogs vision is for a compassionate world in which no animals are mistreated, abused or neglected.
Rob’s Dogs mission is to fund the sterilization of dogs and cats living on the streets and in low-income homes in South-East Asian countries.
Rob’s Dogs epitomizes a compassionate and impactful approach to animal welfare by preventing unwanted births and hence overpopulation of dogs and cats. We are driven by a desire for professionalism and positive change.

Our Story

Deeply disturbed by the suffering of street dogs witnessed on a trip to Bali in 2013, Rebecca, Rob’s widow, was inspired to help. She relocated to Bali in 2014 to volunteer with a dog rescue and rehabilitation organization, BARC. Recognizing that the core issue to the problem was the overpopulation of unwanted dogs, Rebecca dedicated her efforts to BARC’s sterilization program. In 2016, she moved to Koh Samui in Thailand, where she collaborated with Pariah Dog Koh Samui, a group focussing on the rehabilitation and sterilization of abandoned street dogs. In 2018, in honour of her deceased husband, Rebecca established the Rob’s Dogs Foundation, using funds from Rob’s estate to underpin the activities of RDF.
