LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--No Dogs Left Behind, a global animal welfare organization, is transporting rescued dogs from the Chinese meat market to their forever families in North America. The adopted survivors will be flying into LAX and JFK. This follows 3 historic flights at the end of 2020 where 106 dogs were welcomed by their adoptive families in New York City and Los Angeles.
With help from hundreds of activists in China and the US, Beri rescues dogs from slaughterhouses, dog meat trucks, wet markets, and illegal dog traffickers, and then transports them to safe havens where they receive medical care, nutritional support, and rehabilitation on an ongoing basis. Over emails, phone calls, and even video chats, the companion animals have been matched with loving forever families in North America, who are now eagerly awaiting the arrival of their new best friends. Each survivor walks the streets of North America as ambassadors for change which also helps raise awareness to the need for all dogs across the world to find homes.
Fighting against recent COVID-19 outbreaks in China which require extraordinary logistics, support, and planning to ensure safe-passage, No Dogs Left Behind teams in China and the United States has coordinated this historical evacuation. No other rescue organization has succeeded in mass-evacuation-transport of this magnitude since the outbreak of the pandemic. Among the many challenges, the evacuation required multiple construction efforts to build strategically-placed housing throughout the country to provide shelter during the transport that would ensure the survivors were secured when/if areas were closed down for COVID-19 outbreaks. NDLB team members across the country travel with the dogs through every stage as they make their way to Bejing for their freedom flight to the United States.
Through the unwavering support of donors, volunteers and activists NDLB is leading the efforts to bring global animal welfare reform. The survivors coming home will allow NDLB to perform their trademark emergency response, saving more lives and providing education and awareness to the communities in China.
