Talk about nightmares. A truck carrying over 500 dogs to the food markets in Northern China was spotted by dog lovers in a nearby car on the highway. The car forced the truck off the road. The driver of the car began--oh goodness, I'm very bad with computers--tweeting? blogging? at any rate, instant communicating on the Internet. More dog lovers rushed to the site. The situation was resolved when all of the dog lovers pooled funds and bought the truckload of dogs from the truck driver for about half of what the driver would have received had he made the delivery. But now there are over 500 unsocialized, malnourished,untrained dogs to
house and vet. The article did not say where they have all gone though it said some are in animal hospitals. There has been a huge uproar since the event between citizens who oppose and citizens who support the use of dogs as a food source. I could not help thinking that this was rescue nightmare, no matter what stance one took on the matter.</DIV></div></body></html>
