Dogs Rescued From Dog Meat Farm in South Korea
NBC DFW ^ | 5/3

The six dogs are now with SPCA of Texas in Dallas.

Six dogs who were rescued from a dog meat farm in South Korea by Humane Society International arrived at the SPCA of Texas in Dallas just after midnight Tuesday.

The pups will be evaluated and treated for any medical issues before eventually being put up for adoption.

The six dogs in Dallas are part of a group of 250 dogs and puppies rescued by HSI's Animal Rescue Team from a dog meat farm in Wonju, South Korea.

All of those dogs are now with shelters that are part of The Humane Society of the United States' Emergency Placement Partner program.

HSI worked with the farm owner to permanently shut down his farm and remove all dogs from miserable conditions.

As part of the plan, the farmer signed an agreement with HSI to stop raising dogs for meat and permanently leave the trade.

HSI provided guidance and support to make this transition possible and will follow the farmer's progress to ensure compliance.

The brown hound dog in the video looks just like my Black Mouth Cur, Cate.

I rescued her from a sad short life and she is 11 years old now and is treated like a queen. Queen Cate.

I love my Goofball that no-one else could ever love, abandoned numerous times and I saved him from his next roadside deposit ... he has cost me a fortune $ wise but it was $ well spent, he is just a little different but he Loves me.
(He tears up everything, runs away (dog catchers named him speedy, they chipped him because he is a Habitual Offender and I get the $100 charge instead of the regular $35 charge)

He had Heartworms (try paying for that treatment if you are pinching pennies)

But STEVE is a good pup and apologizes when he knows he is in trouble. (I named him STEVE because that is the name of the guy that was going to dump him)

What is most fun, everyone trying to figure out his heritage... the Vet is stumped and everyone has their theories. He is a Heinz 750 !
