Here's what the humans have to say about me:
DangDang was rescued in 2017 from the Dog and Cat Meat Trade, Yulin Festival. After being rescued he stayed at a China Shelter for a few years until it was his turn to be transported to the US.
Most animals who are rescued from the trade have some emotional scarring due to the torture and experience they lived through. DangDang is slow to trust and takes time to open up, but when he does bond with his humans, he is extremely loyal and comfortable.
Dang Dang is a 5 year old, 50 lb Shep Mix. He is a playful and gentle pup who loves to make new furry friends! This silly boy is always up for a game of chase and will playfully bow and boop his nose to get your attention. He would do best in a home with another dog to make him more comfortable and to give him a built in furry BFF,
Dang Dang is crate and potty trained and will even walk himself to bed if you ask him nicely. Although he can be a bit timid around new things, he quickly warms up and shows his sweet and calm personality. If you're looking for a furry friend to help shine, Dang Dang is the one for you!
