My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Dawa:
In November 2023, in the bitter cold of northern China, a rescuer found a starving pregnant dog searching for food—but when they returned with supplies, she had disappeared. 
Days later, the cries of newborn puppies led the rescuer to a construction site, where eight pups were found; tragically, three had already passed.
Dawa was one of the five survivors.
All were brought to safety, and Dawa later flew to Los Angeles in May 2024. She has since adjusted well in her foster home and is now spayed.
Dawa is hoping for a patient, experienced, and loving family who can show her what it means to finally feel safe, relaxed, and cherished.
$250 fee.

Additional adoption info

Our dogs are coming from China and are typically rescued from dangerous situations (e.g. the meat trade industry). They travel a long way to get to LA, spending many hours in a crate. Therefore, they often have unique needs and need a lot of special attention. This is why we spend a lot of time with potential adopters

Meetings by appointment. Dogs are fostered in Los Angeles.

More about this rescue

At Hope for China Dogs, we are committed to combating the cruel and inhumane practice of the dog meat trade in China. We believe that every dog deserves to live a life free from pain and suffering, which is why we are dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating dogs who have been victims of this trade.
Our mission is to provide a safe haven for these dogs, promote education and awareness around the dog meat trade, and advocate for its abolition. We work closely with our volunteers in China to rescue dogs from slaughterhouses, meat markets & trucks, and other dangerous situations, and bring them to immediate safety in China. From there we address any immediate medical needs, and begin the process of flying them to the US where we find their loving forever homes.
Through our work, we save lives, end suffering, and bring happiness to dogs and humans. We ultimately hope to bring an end to the dog meat trade, and create a more compassionate world for all dogs and animals.
