Love Knows No Borders - China Dog Rescue

We are excited to announce that SEVA GRREAT is expanding our international rescue efforts to China.  Goldens are a popular breed in China and puppy mills are common.  Many Goldens are abandoned when their owners no longer want them.  These dogs end up as strays or in shelters, where adoption is rare.  Some cities ban ownership of large dogs, and when an owner is caught with a large dog like a Golden, the dog is taken away and brought to a shelter, where euthanasia is the most likely outcome.  Goldens are also commonly found in meat markets, where some vendors prize them for their docile temperament.  Their love for and trust in people is used against them.  Every dog we bring to the United States is a life that is saved.  Our first dogs from China have been pulled from danger and are currently receiving the vet care they need prior to making the journey to Virginia.  We will keep you posted as we anxiously await their arrival.

Each international dog we save has high transport costs associated with bringing them to the United States.  We must pay for each dog’s medical care, which includes testing for diseases, vaccinations, spay/neuter, and any other care the dog requires.  We pay to board the dogs while they are observed to make sure they show no signs of illness and while we make arrangements for their flight.  We pay for their paperwork that allows them to travel out of their country and into the United States.  We pay for their crates and their transport.  Our cost per dog has averaged $2000.  Please consider a donation to our international transport fund to help us save as many of these deserving dogs as we can.  You are literally helping to save a life.
