U.S. HUMANE SOCIETY SAVES DOGS FROM DOG MEAT FARMS

Kitty Block, acting president and CEO of The Humane Society of the U.S., discusses massive transport of dogs to the U.S. from South Korea dog meat farms 

The Humane Society of the United States and its affiliates are the nation’ largest provider of hands-on services for animals, caring for more than 150,000 animals each year. And for the past three years, the organization has worked in South Korea to close down some of the thousands of dog meat farms across the country. This has resulted in thirteen hundred dogs being rescued and transported to the U.S. and other countries to get the care they deserve. We are joined by acting president and CEO of the Humane Society, Kitty Block and one of those rescued farm dogs.
