今日我們收到彰化動保所的關切希望…
說許多繁殖業者打去反應希望我們修正貼文這並不是個繁殖場…
就協會的立場很簡單…
我們當初從通報人那獲得的資訊就是…
之前的繁殖業者已經丟下這批可憐的毛小孩跑了…新的土地承租人不知如何處理而釋出這些小孩讓要的人領走…
裡面皆為大家熟知的品種犬,阿富汗.喜樂蒂.邊境牧羊犬...一般人很少會一次養那麼多種品種犬跟那麼多數量吧？！
因為協會空間有限,加上有其他團體能夠幫忙收容,所以我們幫忙帶回兩隻阿富汗…
我們昨天帶那兩個可憐的孩子去醫院時就發現母狗很明顯是生育過的…但是不知生育過後的孩子在哪裏？！
站在協會的立場…
我們當然希望藉由宣導
#領養代替購買
#領養不棄養
#毛小孩節育
來減少眼前台灣龐大的流浪狗數量
謝謝大家對協會的關注…
您的幫忙及支持是我們繼續幫助流浪動物最好的動力！

今天一大早，我們就開車到彰化，救援了兩隻阿富汗獵犬。 這是我們到達現場的影片。當下的場景，是我們長期看過最殘忍的環境之一。每隻狗都沒有水和食物。他們的籠子不僅生鏽、磨損、發霉，也被狗毛和糞便覆蓋。我們看到狗兒在這樣的環境受苦，非常傷痛。我們帶了兩隻，一公一母(公狗是我們在剃除凌亂毛髮後才辨識性別的)。另一隻阿富汗獵犬當天被領養。邊境牧羊犬會被專門收留此品種的協會帶回。 這樣的場景令人心碎。我們知道這個情況遍佈台灣各地。大部分您在寵物店窗口看到的狗兒，都來自這樣的繁殖場。請不要視而不見。停止購買，就可以停止這些狗兒的死亡。 我們將會分享這兩隻阿富汗獵犬的完整故事。我們今日也救援了另外兩隻阿富汗獵犬，短期內也會與大家分享他們的故事。
January 9th Update:
Today we received a call from the government animal protection agency, who informed us that they had recieved calls from various breeders around Taiwan that we had given false information about the rescue of these animals. When we were asked to help with these dogs we were told that a breeder had abandoned the dogs and the owne or renter of the property did not want the dogs there.
Later we were told that the original owner was a breeder and abandoned the dogs, then the new renter of the land took of the "care" of these dogs, but kept them in the same condition (rusted cages, limited food and water and no release from the cages).
We do not know for sure if these dogs were breeding dogs, or victims of a terrible hording situation. We can only go on what we have been told. We know that all of the dogs are purebred dogs, none of them were spayed or neutered and the female we have rescued had had puppies before. If these dogs were not breeding dogs, they were still most probably bought from a breeder or pet store at some point and they were never chipped, registered, spayed/neutered or properly cared for.
As a rescue organization and seeing the distress of 1000s of dogs in Taiwan, we still strongly advocate for people to adopt and not buy dogs.
Our priority is the care and well-being of the dogs we have rescued from this situation. It has been very traumatic for our volunteers and staff to see dogs in such terrible condition. We will continue to advocate adoption and continue to help dog where we have the ability.
Today we drove down to Chunghua very early in the morning to rescue two Afghan hounds from a hoarding situation. Here's a video of what we found when we arrived. This is one of the worst cases of cruelty that we have seen in a long time. None of the dogs had food or water. Their cages were cramped and rotten, completely rusted, bent and covered in matted fur and feces. It was very traumatic for us to see these dogs in these conditions. We took two of them, a male and female (he had only found out one was a male when we shaved away the matted fur). One other Afghan hound was adopted on that day, and the Border Collies will be taken in by a Border Collie organization. It broke our hearts to see this, but we know this goes on all around Taiwan. Many of the puppies you see in windows in the pet stores around Taiwan come from these conditions. Don't close your eyes to this, stop buying and they will stop dying. We will share a full write up with everyone on the two Afghan Hounds we rescued. We have recently rescued two other Afghan hounds and will share their story soon.
