China Dog Meat Rescue
135 dogs were rescued from a dog meat restaurant in Pingdingshan, China on March 9 [https://x.com/i/status/2031781448009613509]. Where are they now?
Many of the rescued dogs are now being cared for by local animal shelters and rescue organizations in China. These groups are providing the dogs with medical treatment, food, and shelter as they recover from their ordeal. Humane Society International (HSI) assisted with the rescue and is working to find the dogs suitable homes. Some dogs may be adopted locally in China, while others may be sent to other countries, including the United States and Canada, for adoption. The rescue operation was prompted by a tip-off to local activists, who then worked with authorities to shut down the illegal dog meat restaurant. Dog meat is a controversial issue in China, with growing opposition to the trade.
