In an awe-inspiring display of unity and compassion, Korean K9 Rescue and our 12 partner organizations have achieved what once seemed impossible: the complete clearing of a city shelter in Hongseong-gu, South Korea. This historic event marks the first time a Korean shelter has been entirely emptied, heralding a new chapter in the fight against animal neglect and abuse.
Within the walls of the shelter were 105 souls, each with a story of resilience. Some of these dogs, burdened with years of neglect and chained without hope, have now found freedom. Others, battling diseases like parvo, faced daunting odds against adoption in Korea. But today, thanks to our collective efforts and the tireless work of our dedicated ‘Lucy’s Law’ team, these dogs are stepping into a brighter future. Our hearts swell with gratitude for the unyielding support from volunteers and advocates in Korea, New York City, and Los Angeles. Your belief in our cause is the driving force behind these miracles.
However, our mission doesn’t end here. These precious lives still need your support. As we move into the crucial phase of providing necessary veterinary care and rehabilitation, we rely on your generosity more than ever. Your donations can pave the way for these dogs to find the loving homes they deserve. Together, let’s continue to make history and transform lives. We encourage you to join us in this journey by donating, fostering, volunteering, or adopting. Every action counts towards giving these dogs the loving future they’ve always deserved.
What we’ve witnessed in Hongseong-gu is nothing short of remarkable: a shelter that once echoed with the barks of 105 hopeful hearts, now silent. It’s a poignant reminder of what can be achieved when compassion and collaboration come together. Our team at Korean K9 Rescue was honored to welcome 13 of these beautiful beings into our Bundang center, providing them a safe haven and the first step towards a loving forever home. This achievement isn’t just ours; it belongs to every partner, supporter, and animal lover who stood by us. Your donations, shares, and words of encouragement are invaluable, keeping our spirits high and our mission moving forward. We extend our deepest thanks to each and every one of you. Together, we’re not just saving lives; we’re nurturing hope, one dog at a time.
