My Story

Chico of the Parking Lot Pups - In bus parking lot in Taiwan, three puppies about 3 months old were abandoned. One puppy even still had a collar on. For puppies this young, it is very difficult for them to survive on their own and they could easily be hit be the buses coming in and out of the the parking lot.

All three puppies were very friendly and hungry so HARA volunteers fed the puppies. They were posted on social media in hopes that someone would go rescue them or adopt them since our foster homes were full and did not have the financial resources to take them in. People who saw the social media post donated money to the volunteers who posted about the puppies asking them to go rescue them. Luckily a few days later, we adopted out two other dogs so foster space opened up. Volunteers went and rescued the puppies 3 days after they were first spotted in the parking lot. They were bathed, taken to the vet hospital for treatment and placed in foster homes to be socialized.
