16 more dogs left the shelter in north east China. Now they have a much better chance at a new beginning. They will be closer to the airports and be able to access better vet care . They can also share kennels with indoor and outdoor space.

Beautiful Samoyed Xenia was rescued alongside her friend Mia, who has since gone on to find a wonderful home. Xenia faced some health challenges and underwent surgery to remove several tumours. Thankfully, there has been no sign of them returning, #DogMeatTrade

Once disregarded and sold for meat, Matcha is now the deeply cherished companion he always deserved to be. Jennifer from Safe Haven took him under her wing and completely fell in love with him. She now considers Matcha to be her soul dog… and honestly, how beautiful is that?
