stray dog at our soi in Phuket, what we did

There is a brown female dog that has been living near our soi for maybe two years. We feed her rice and chicken on the corner by the 7-Eleven every night, but my husband thought she needed a proper check. Last week she came limping and her ear had a bad wound. We have Rain at home, a Thai Bangkaew who is nine years old, so I know what a healthy dog looks like, but this was a different situation. The first step was calling a rescue group we know in Phuket. They sent someone the same evening to take a look. She was not aggressive, just scared, so we used a towel and a box. The rescue team took her to the vet and checked for a microchip, which she did not have. We cannot keep her in the house unless she is adopted properly, so I paid for the first treatment and they found a foster home near Kathu. I know many people feed strays but do not follow up. Feeding is kind, but if you can, call a group who can help with vaccines and neutering. Otherwise the same dogs keep having puppies on the soi, and then nobody wants them. Rain sniffed her through the fence and we both felt sad. Nothing about this is easy.
