Story
Meet Bassett!  He's a vey handsome playful sweet guy!  He has one crooked tooth in his mouth that allows his tongue to sneak through sometimes!!  He is a 2 year old that was rescued from a breeding farm before heading to a dog meat farm in South Korea.  We have partners we work with there that pull these dogs from the worst horrors imaginable.  Many of these dogs start off in horrific puppy mill type facilities on tiny rabbit cage size wire crates in complete filth.  If they are not sold at 6 or 8 weeks then they either stay for a couple years to be used to breed more and then are sold off to the meat trade, or they are sold off right away.  Jindo's and Tosa's are the most common meat type dogs, and are very commonly bred specifically for their meat and the meat farms also act as breeding farms until they reach a good age and weight. South Korea is one of the only countries that actually farms dogs for their meat.   Many restaurants will serve a dish called " bosintang ", which stands for "dog meat soup". It's a popular dish in South  Korea,  and is said to act as an aphrodisiac for men.    Little dogs are used for elixirs and potions.  The younger generation is mostly against this practice and many choose to not eat them, and we can only hope in time with education and generations of change that an end will come to this horrific trade.  Bassett and some of his friends have been flown here for a chance at a future and a real life.  These are miracle dogs that they are alive today.  Our adoption fee is $600 which helps offset some of the flight costs.  If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application form at  https://form.jotform.com/oscarlucy/dog-adoption-app May 2, 2025, 1:51 am

Story
Breed: Maltese Age: 15 yrs. Weight: 8 lbs. Good with dogs: yes Good with cats: unsure Good with kids: unsure Energy level: low Good with men/strangers: yes Hypoallergenic: yes Special home requirements or medical: none Additional info: Sweeet Lilly aka LillyBelle was dumped at the shelter by her human at 12 years old!! She has been vetted and groomed and is a new lady ready for a new leash on life. Lilly is the sweetest dog her foster has ever met. She is very low maintenance, just needs to be fed and taken out 3 times per day. Other than that, she enjoys her naps (especially outside in the sun), cuddling on the couch or bed and will help you slow down. She will do a small run or jump when she’s excited and will win your heart over when she does.
