I adopted two rescues from the horrific dog meat trade in Korea. Their love for me is unconditional. They absolutely know I saved them. The most rewarding feeling in the world. I love them so much. I respect all who fight for animals. I do all I can. I sign every petition and I donate what I can. I’m so saddened by the humans who abuse and torture animals. How can they?? Thank God for those who fight. I pray for their strength to keep going. One day things will be different. I pray!!

We need more people like you in this world, so please continue with your rescuing efforts, we know its definitely not easy. And to the rest of the world who are reading this, i wish to share with you (my husband and i)our real life experience and having witness to what miracle Carter Rescue team can do, made us realised we are so blessed to have this organisation making so much efforts to save life of these helpless animals. Beginning of this year, in early January we happened to visit china for our first time with a tour company. On our last day of the tour, i happened to fall sick and couldnt join the tour to do some sight seeing in one of the tourist park at Hangzhou city, so we decided to stay and rested inside the bus while waiting for the group to return. During our resting time, we got off the bus to get some frest air and all of a sudden there came this dog, he ran towards us with a most joyful welcoming gesture, he looked so dirty and skinny, immediately we knew something was also not right, althought he was very bubbly and happy but he was shaking continously and could barely stand still as the temperature as minus 8degrees freezingly cold. Soon we realised this was a strayed dog, he has been starved under this unbareable cold temperature for however long it has been, as he was living on the street for so long without proper foods, his ribs were showing through a thin layer of malnutrition skin and hardly much furs, surpringly he is still surviving. After spending a short time with him and feeding him with some leftover foods from our bags (as it was unfortunate that there were no foods stall around the area). Our group returned and we were due to head to the airport for our flight back home.
Before we get back to our bus, we wrap him up with a large scarfe to keep him warm, he was so intelligent that he knew to stay still andnot to follow us anymore as we have to leave.
At this point, my husband made up his mind he must find help to save this dog, he mananged to find a dog rescue company named “CARTER DOG RESCUE” on the internet. An email with full desciption was forwarded to Carter and to our surprise we got a reply from CARTER almost immediately when we arrived in our hotel in hong kong, Carter Rescue team worked so deligently and promptly that they wanted to know the exact location of this dog so they could send out the rescue team quickly. After a few back and forth emails with more details, within a few hours we got a message from CARTER and a picture of the dog and the scarfe, we recognised the scarfe and immediately have no doubt it was that dog (i was in tears because of joy). My husband and I even up to this day, still couldnt believe how kind and amazing this rescue team from carter are. The people that were involved in this rescueing efforts are from Carter team in Canada, Shanghai and Hangzhou. Thankyou guys in Carter, we have the greatest gratitude for you guys to turn this into a happy ending. As this dog is now in Canada and up for adoption.

You have done so much good. There is a special place in Heaven for folks like you. Don’t let the few naysayers who hide behind their computers affect you and
what you are doing. They are the loudest but they are the fewest and they are cowardly. I would like to see them show the fortitude that you folks have. You may have not saved the world but you have saved the worlds of the dogs you have rescued and homed. Keep up the great work you are doing.

Is it worth it? I can’t speak for you because I do not do your job, but I have done a job involving rescue (of humans, though) and suffered barbs and harpoons for it, so maybe I can relate better than some. Either way, All I need to do is look to my side, where a beautiful little three-leged dog is laying happily next to me, a dog rescued from the slaughterhouse in China and brought to Canada because of your big heart, to know that yeah, it’s worth it. As I recall, Eleven was the first dog from China you received and adopted out, and our story is an amazing success. Take some heart in that. We love you guys so much I can’t even say.
