VASS, N.C., Feb. 22, 2021 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — China Rescue Dogs<\/a>, a 501(c)(3) organization committed to rescuing and saving dogs from China and adopting them into homes in the U.S. and Canada, is calling on the public to help them save over 200 additional dogs.<\/p>\n

One hundred forty-five (145) newly rescued dogs will arrive via three cargo planes on March 3rd, 4th and 5th, 2021 at (JFK) John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. An additional sixty (60) will, hopefully, arrive in the United States at the end of March – but it all depends on donations.<\/p>\n

These dogs were saved from the inevitable just before Chinese New Year. Many were saved off meat trucks, from slaughterhouses and rescued from abuse, and neglect. They have been stranded in China until the New Year celebrations come to an end.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat was once the end of their lives, is now a new beginning for these beautiful babies,\u201d said Jill Stewart, President and Founder of China Rescue Dogs. \u201cThey all have been quarantined, micro-chipped, and received all the necessary vaccinations. Now, it is time for them to live the rest of their lives being safe and happy with their forever families.\u201d<\/p>\n

China Recue Dogs is a 501(c)(3) organization founded by Jill Stewart, an ardent advocate of animal rights worldwide, and especially in China. Their global mission is to rescue and rehabilitate dogs from China and provide them with loving forever homes in North America.\u00a0There are over a dozen other U.S. dog rescue organizations that are working with China Rescue Dogs on these rescues.<\/p>\n

As Stewart reflects on the progress of the mission to save dogs, she is thankful for everyone\u2019s support. \u201cWithout People.com and its readers, we would not have been able to save 60 dogs at the end of January. Those dogs are now living in their forever homes and I become so emotional knowing how much joy and unconditional love they are now bringing to their new families.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sam Scaman Marketing Director for China Recue Dogs, admits, \u201cAlthough money can\u2019t buy love \u2013 it can buy a rescue! It\u2019s true, the larger dogs are more costly to transfer via cargo, but China Rescue Dogs does offer exceptions and scholarships to senior citizens that are living on a fixed income.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scaman adds, \u201cWe have placed many of our rescue dogs with elderly single parents. The close bond and companionship with a rescue dog and a senior citizen can work better than the strongest medicine — especially during a pandemic. I think every lonely senior needs a rescue dog companion so they can both rescue each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stewart, along with her small team of volunteers are calling donors and fund-raising for this new life saving project. They now need to raise an additional $30,000 so they can bring in all two hundred (200) dogs and not have to turn any away.<\/p>\n

\u201cFunding is crucial,\u201d admits Stewart. \u201cWe never say no to any dog – mixed breeds, banned breeds, disabled dogs and seniors. We try to rescue them all. Unfortunately, we cannot do that without the public\u2019s continued support.\u201d<\/p>\n

Everything the organization does relies on donations and volunteers. Ryan McDonnell, Vice President of China Rescue Dogs confirms, \u201cAll of us are volunteers \u2013 even our vet partner Bay Street Animal Hospital in Staten Island, NY. They come to every flight arrival at JFK and make sure all the dogs are healthy as soon as they land.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat makes this project even more challenging are the number of states we transportation these dogs to,\u201d says Stewart. \u201cFrom the east coast to the west coast, we have forever families waiting for their new babies to arrive. Delivering these babies to their new homes is worth the effort but is still expensive.\u201d<\/p>\n
