With help from hundreds of activists in China and the US, founder Jeffery Beri rescues dogs from slaughterhouses, dog meat trucks, wet markets, the Yulin Meat Festival, and illegal dog traffickers, and then transports them to safe havens where they receive medical care, nutritional support, and rehabilitation on an ongoing basis. Fighting on the front lines to end the reckless slaughtering of animals this movement will also put an end to the serious threat to human health as wet markets breed infectious diseases. While the majority of the population in China does not eat dog meat, it is estimated over 20 million dogs are still barbarically slaughtered each year. The Yulin Meat Festival is fast approaching where an estimated 10,000 dogs are brutally killed for consumption.

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 of the need for all dogs across the world to find homes. The cost to transport the dogs has exponentially increased over the past year amid a global pandemic. Essentially stranding the dogs in China for almost all of 2020 and limiting NDLB’s efforts to rescue more dogs, funds are urgently required to keep survivors coming home and to save the lives of many destined for the Yulin festival.

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 have coordinated this 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, then 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.
