My name is Ma Dan

I am a Dog Meat Trade Survivor

I was only a baby when I was rescued from the slaughterhouse. I was scared of humans at first but the kind lady called Du Yufeng, of Bo Ai Animal Protection Centre in Sichuan, China, nursed my fears away. I have been at the shelter since she rescued me but I have been told that a wonderful family in Germany wants to adopt me! That they cannot wait to meet me! I am so happy to be chosen!

I can't stop smiling!

They have 3 other dogs who I will be able to play with so I won't be lonely. They go for lovely walks and they can even swim if they want to! They are already buying me things for when they meet me. I have a warm and cosy bed waiting for me! And toys of my own! I am so happy!

I was very brave when I had my rabies vaccination and microchip. I also had to have blood drawn for something called a titre test which I passed! I am all ready to fly but I need a kind person to accompany me to my new family. An appeal has been made to find a 'flight volunteer'. That means someone who can add me to their flight ticket from Beijing to Frankfurt, Brussels or Amsterdam.

If no one comes forward soon then another year will pass me by and although I am well looked after at the shelter and have lots of friends, it is not great to stay there for a lot longer. I want a home of my own...

A holiday called Christmas is fast approaching. I know that people need money to buy presents for their loved ones but flying to my new family would be the best Christmas present of all for me. I never thought I would have a family of my own.

CAN YOU HELP ME? ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️ ✈️

Can you donate towards my flight cost? A donation instead of buying a cup of coffee? I know if a lot of people did this I would soon reach my goal and if no one comes forward to fly from Beijing with me then my new family may have the amount needed for me to fly alone! ✈

The Dog Meat Trade is evil and cruel and is happening right now in China. I am a lucky boy but thousands of dogs like me are brutally tortured and killed for someone's meal.

I will be a Dog Meat Trade Ambassador. I am very proud! My family have bought me a new coat to raise awareness of what happens. Together we will educate people about what is happening to dogs in China.

Please donate to help me. I really need your help. You can follow my adoption journey on my blog:- boaianimalcentre.org/ma-dan

Thank you so much! Lots of licks and paw shakes, Ma Dan ❤ ❤ ❤
