The project “Adoption in lieu of purchase, with love and with angels” has been ongoing in the New Street Family Animal Support Centre in Yong-Ahn Village, Chengdu, and more than 4,000 stray dogs are still waiting for them to be brought home by the caring people. In the first nine days of the month alone, the stray dogs consumed more than $200,000. Under enormous economic pressure, the Centre continues to insist on adoption as an alternative to purchase, promoting the values of life, preserving the ecology and firmly rejecting any acts and ideas of abuse and mutilation of animals. The idea of "we don't want to treat dogs as a commodity" and make it a "dot for all good." One of 35 outstanding public goods projects in the second new media competition on the use of public goods.
The day before yesterday, Mr. Gao, a passionate citizen, came to the Animal Support Centre of the House of Love and successfully adopted a stray dog. Since he is a professional animal epidemiological worker in the vicinity of a home-based rescue centre, Mr. Gao often comes here to work for small animals. "and the little ones, they're strong, they're cute, so this time they'll just adopt a dog and take care of it."
In the recent past, the volunteers of the relief centres have been conducting live public service campaigns in peace communities in the High New Territories, conducting scientific education on partner animal protection, educating young people about the relationship between nature and human survival, nurturing them to love life and embrace the good feelings of nature, and informing citizens about how to adopt stray dogs. It is known that many citizens are interested in the adoption of stray dogs and that five persons were registered at the scene.
The head of the family ' s animal support centre, Chan Luang-Leng, said that there were currently more than 4,000 stray dogs waiting for the beloved to bring them home, but the number of adopted dogs was far below the number received every month.
Conradi was a “year-old” volunteer at the rescue centre, and before she came here, she often followed information about small animals on television and on the Internet, hoping to do something for lovely animals. After becoming an official volunteer in a rescue center, Conrad took the initiative to bathe the animals and clean their rooms. “When he was a child, she wanted a place to look after the animals, and that was a wish.” In her more than two years of voluntary service, Conrad had seen relief centres grow, but “vagrant teams” were growing, and she felt the burden of that great aspiration was growing.
All the homeless animals at the centre eat twice a day, 700 pounds of rice, more than 200 pounds of internal organs and more than 600 pounds of dog food a day, “Twenty thousand dollars!” plus the wages of a dozen workers, which cost more than 100,000 a month. According to Chan, despite donations from good people and businesses, the consumption of more than 4,000 stray dogs was far from sufficient, and the rest was left to her own account. In order to support the “home”, Chen had sold her shop in the flower pond for 16 years and had spent millions on the construction of a rescue centre, exhausting all her savings. “The fence was repaired and the house repaired this month, and less than a decade has passed before spending more than $200,000 ...”
In late June, Chen Ying Liang often felt overwhelmed, hoping that a young man of love would pick up the baton of the rescue centre. “He did not have to be very good, but he had to take care of the animals, and to face the adopters, he had to take care of them. She also hoped that laws and regulations would govern those who abandoned their pets, “and then they wouldn't throw them away”.
