1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: I'm a malamute person. I've had Alaskan Malamutes for thirty 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: plus years. 3 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 2: Veterinarian Chris Barnett owns Rockingham Emergency Veterinary Hospital in Wyndham, 4 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 2: New Hampshire. A couple of years ago, she noticed Facebook 5 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 2: postings about dogs being rescued from China's dog meat industry, 6 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 2: where large dogs are favored. 7 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: And then you read and you find out these dogs 8 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: were headed to the meat market and they were tortured, 9 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: and they were abused, and they came from these horrible situations. 10 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: Many are deformed from the deplorable living conditions. Chris is 11 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 2: in the process of adopting two malamutes and is paying 12 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 2: for two additional dogs to be flown to the US 13 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: for adoption. Now she's raising awareness. 14 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: And maybe support these rescue groups in China. Maybe if 15 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: they have more resources and more backing, then they'll actually 16 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: be able to win this fight. If you can do it, 17 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: you know, adopt one of these dogs. They're great dogs. 18 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: From Litchfield, New Hampshire.
