Street Dog Defender Street Dog Defender August 13, 2014 Share: Share on FacebookShare on TwitterSend an Email Dear lavinia, A dog looks up at a woman as he is offered water after days of going without. Barking and whining can be heard all around from frightened, confused animals, many injured and some laboring to breathe. Veterinarians work frantically as darkness falls on a crowded field. Numerous stolen pets, along with a police service dog, were discovered this past week among some 3,280 dogs bound for slaughter in China’s dog meat market. Despite sweltering summer temperatures, they were densely packed into small wire cages without regard for safety or welfare. The dogs were in terrible shape and sadly, some died before they could receive care. No animal deserves this, but such cruelty is rampant within the dog meat trade. We’re working with government leaders and partner groups across Asia to put an end to this horror and we urgently need you. Join HSI as a Street Dog Defender with a monthly gift. Your ongoing support will make a difference for animals. All of the dogs were relinquished into the care of local animal protection groups after the truckers provided fraudulent documentation to police. More than 2,800 of the dogs have been adopted, and one of the stolen dogs was miraculously reunited with her family! HSI will continue to support these local groups as the remaining dogs are treated and cared for until adoptive homes are found. This massive and unprecedented rescue operation clearly demonstrates the public opposition to China’s dog meat industry, one that gives rise to dog theft, document forgery and other illegal activities. Our dog meat campaign is truly having a big impact and with your help, well keep working to end this horrible trade. You can be a part of this important progress. As a Street Dog Defender, youll receive special email updates on our campaign to shut down the dog meat trade, and all the ways your gift is helping street dogs around the world. Join today and help us prevent more dogs from suffering » Regular monthly giving allows us to plan ahead, so we can focus on shutting down dog meat markets, lobbying for stronger laws and, with the help of our local partners, rescuing more dogs from smugglers’ trucks.

Battling the dog meat trade is daunting, but this massive rescue provides us with great encouragement. We will not stop until it is over and hope you will be there with us each month so that we may see an end to this cruelty in the not too distant future.
