A dog was shot through the chest and neck by a Chinese meat trade hunter. He was rescued by animal rights campaigners when animal lover Qiao Wei saw the dog covered in blood on the streets of Chengdu, China. Wei took the wounded dog to a hospital where he got treated for his serious injuries.
Reportedly, the dog had been part of the hunting that is involved in China’s dog meat trade. Wei is being called a ‘hero’ for saving the animal, but the images posted of the dog after the attack has really struck a nerve with activists everywhere.
Animal activist groups, such as Guardians of Chinese Animal Protection, have sent messages of concern.The shelter finally disclosed an update on how the dog was doing, and thankfully the treatment had been successful. Updates suggest that the dog will make a full recovery from the horrific incident.
