ACS Teams with the HSUS to Rescue More Dogs From Meat Farms in S.Korea

Animal Care Sanctuary continued its lifesaving partnership with the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International by taking in 10 dogs – including a mother with four pups – that were rescued from a dog meat farm in South Korea.

“The dogs were locked in barren metal cages without water or proper food, living in squalid conditions,” HSUS stated. “On one of the farms, many of the dogs were suffering from severe malnutrition as well as painful skin diseases, and were found huddled next to the lifeless bodies of their dead cage mates who had apparently starved to death. On another farm, the dogs had been abandoned and risked being euthanized after the farmers running the facility had moved away following a demolition order by local officials.”
