Opened in 2017, the sanctuary houses more than 780 rescue dogs (including 50 TikTok-famous paralyzed dogs affectionately nicknamed The Wheelchair Mafia), while monitoring, feeding and caring for an additional 450 stray dogs. TMTRD provides food, shelter and medical treatment for Thailand’s canine community, and also helps to safely control the stray population with medical care, vaccinations, and local education.
“I am very proud of what we have built here. It’s been an amazing journey, and the idea to paint the names onto a wall is to celebrate everyone who is also part of the story – to always remember their generosity, and the difference it has made. Everything we do here is for the happiness of the dogs, and ‘Home. Made.’ has allowed us to do even more.
“As we live solely on donations, the book has been excellent for us as a source of income for the dogs. Until now, we didn’t have much in terms of products to sell, other than T-shirts and coffee mugs – but the 70% of donations will be so crucial for us in the long run. Thank you again to everyone who has supported us, and we hope you like this small token of thankfulness.”
Receiving renowned acclaim from the likes of celebrity photographer Jeff Katz, host, producer and restaurateur Manolo Gonzalez Vergara, and filmmaker and BBC investigative journalist Mikey Kay, “Home. Made.” has been hailed a “heartwarming, heroic and inspirational” story. The memoir recounts Baines’ remarkable journey from the bustling kitchens of Sweden’s most popular restaurant scene, to the tranquil cassava fields of Bang Saen, Thailand – the Swedish entrepreneur quit his successful culinary career to open the nonprofit rescue and rehabilitation center for stray dogs.
The book also reveals the deeply moving and most difficult challenges of Baines’ own life, namely his personal struggles with drug and alcohol addiction. After somehow finding himself working for the alleged Yugoslavian mafia in Sweden, the chef became caught up in the dangerous world of drugs, chasing highs to ward off his demons, before he was delivered a life-changing ultimatum. “A captivating read that warms the heart” and makes a positive impact, the book has earned five-star reviews around the world, and continues to help dogs in Thailand live happier and healthier lives.
“Home. Made.” is available to purchase in the U.S. at heywitchcraft.com/shop, or via Amazon for readers outside of the U.S.
