This Dog Ran Away From An Illegal Meat Farm In Bali, We Helped Her Heal And Found Her A Home
Mo’s tale is a story of resilience, the will to live, and a testament to what a little bit of compassion can do.
This innocent girl was found lying in a gutter in Bali, starving, half-dead. Her mouth was taped shut and her back legs were tied together with a shoelace. Like so many others, Mo was the victim of the illegal dog meat trade that still operates in Bali. Unlike so many others, Mo was considered lucky. It is believed little Mo fell off the back of the dog meat catcher’s bike and scuttled into a drain where she hid for two weeks. Thank God.

This is little Mo when she was found. Like so many others, Mo was the victim of the illegal dog meat trade that still operates in Bali
The innocent girl was found lying in a gutter in Bali, starving, half-dead
Through all the trauma and abuse Mo suffered, the biggest physical challenge she faced was healing her snout. The tape had cut off the blood circulation and the flesh was dying. She was raced into surgery where her snout was carefully sutured in place, along with skin grafts. The team held their breath—they didn’t know if she would make it through such intense surgery after what she had been through. Mo woke up and her tail started wagging.

The team held their breath—they didn’t know if she would make it through such intense surgery after what she had been through
Slowly, with rehabilitation, time, and love, Mo started to heal
She began to gain weight, blood flow returned, and she regained feeling in her snout. Her confidence crept back and her personality shined. Sweet, cuddly, and still trusting of humans, despite the pain she had been through, Mo flourished into the beautiful dog she had always been.
Thanks to all the amazing people that saved her
Sweet, cuddly, and still trusting of humans, despite the pain she had been through, Mo flourished into the beautiful dog she had always been
Soon Mo found an amazing and loving family that took her in
Now Mo lives her best life with a loving pair of humans who spoil her with love, care, toys, and lots of snacks
The first night she came home, she slept solidly for 10 hours snuggled up on her pawrents’ bed! She spends her days playing with her canine siblings, nibbling on delicious treats, and receiving lots of hugs and kisses.
Mo is finally living the life every dog deserves to live and her sorrow and pain is in the past
Please consider donating so that we can save as many animals as we can!
If you would like to help more dogs like Mo live a happy and healthy life, free of fear, abuse, and neglect, please consider donating to Mission Paws’ible.

Agreed. It'd be nice if the world worked that way... but it doesn't. The good suffer needlessly all over the planet, and the wicked have prospered and lived happy lives throughout history - and will continue to do so. Karma is pure wishful thinking - the only justice out there is the justice we have to create ourselves for atrocities like this
Load More Replies...Agree with you, Nevits; nature is fighting back, and maybe the day will come when nature will win over the cruel, vile human species. Unfortunately, it will respond indiscriminately.
Exactly the same is too much mercy... 3 or 4 times worse sounds fair to me. For now, im absolutely happy that those psychopath bitches got pissed off after loosing their smart tortured dog meant to be a money income, only to realize that now, that same dog is in a home 100 times better they would ever get. I Wish the best for those poor good boys n girls that are unfairly fated to a horrible destiny... i wish for all the cages to open and the psychos get their feet tied up together, while the dogs run free. Chaotic justice if needed.
Who done this? Who is doing that to billions upon the billions of innocent sentient beings??? Billions of so called human beings, Belka. Honestly, every and any animal is a sentient being who fears for his/her life, wants to live and be happy, just like you, Belka.
Also read the book "The Secret Life of Plants" some scientific evidence has shown many plants can feel and even warn other plants of danger. So if that's the case what can humans eat to survive? Sentience simply means the ability to feel sensations its separate from the ability to think.
Dale, you asked what can humans eat? This is the typical argument against plant-based (vegan) diet the meat, dairy, tons of eggs eaters make, very shallow excuse for eating more than one million animals every single hour. They do not want to hear that people who do not consume meat and dairy eat the fraction of plants what animals on meat-eaters' plates have eaten!!! 80 % of crops planted goes to feed farm animals. Animal agriculture is a major contributor to our planet's most significant environmental threats, greater than industrial and transportation combined. Animal agriculture produces methane - the potent climate killer. Cows produce 150 billion gallons CH4 - methane per day and other - monogastic animals do also. Carbon dioxide fertilizes plants, methane kills them. However, every sort of waste almost 8 billion humans create, including CO2 - carbon dioxide, is way, way too much.

You mean like a slaughterhouse for cows? Yeah no I haven’t been to one but I know what they are like. I’m a vegetarian, and you don’t need to be aggressive to the meat eaters here. They don’t know what their doing!
Kittygirl, not knowing is no justification for doing wrong, not to mention excuse to do/cause cruelty.

It certainly is, but unfortunately a frequent reality we often see here :(
WHY???? WE HAVE CHICKEN! WE HAVE BEEF! WE HAVE TURKEY! WE HAVE PIG! 𝑾𝑯𝒀 DO WE HAVE TO KILL DOGS TOO? (P.S. No offense meant for those who don't eat these.)

Don't tell me that eating meat makes people sick, that's simply wrong. Of course, anything can make you sick if you excessively eat it, no matter if it's carrots, beef or honey. If a human eats zero meat, it can result in blindness, metabolic problems, soft breaking cartilage, weak bones, circulatory breakdown and even result in death. Of course it's possible to eat special things to replace the missing vitamins, but some such as B12 aren't naturally given in anything else than meat and you'll be forced to eat them all your life to prevent yourself from getting sick. Most people simply don't want to do that much just to assure they don't kill or harm themselves with their diet, and sure as hell not everybody wants to eat pills every day. But I agree with you that people should get their meat from good sources, no mass factory farming or indoor farms. And about your last argument, eating meat is absolutely normal in nature at this planet, everything dies and (sadly) that's oftenly connected to suffering. Do you really think that if humanity would become vegan tigers would start eating grass instead of flesh too? Do you think it's my fault, as a meat eater, that eagles kill mice and eat them, sometimes even alive? This argument is invalid. Greeting from a person that lives close to an "animal friendly" Swiss slaughterhouse.
Zedrapazia, people who adopted the whole plan-based (vegan) diet are NOT blind, do NOT have metabolic problems, NO soft breaking cartilage, NO weak bones, NO circulatory breakdown but, they are totally healthy till an advanced age, they have STRONGER and DENSER bones, they do not need to get pills like meat, dairy, eggs eaters do.The vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, phytonutrients are ONLY provided by plants! So animal-protein eaters - need to take many, many vitamin supplements to even survive, as opposed to plant eaters. By the way micro-vitamin B12 is in nutritional yeast, see weed, and algae. - You are not tiger or any other predatory animal. The human digestive system is very similar to that of fruit, nut and seed eating animal. Please read the books I mentioned above in response to Call Me Mars. The nature sure is cruel, if human beings want to co-exist peacefully with each other they must disassociate themselves from nature's brutality first!!! Please do not spread misinformation how plant-based diet effects human health when you did not experienced it yourself. -"The only source of knowledge is experience." - Albert Einstein. The statements I made in this post regarding health benefits of the plant-based diet are from my experience, and testimonials of other vegans. We do not have health and opioid crises because people eat only plants.
"Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances of survival of life on Earth as much as evolution to a vegetarian diet." - Albert Einstein ... The super genius was major proponent of vegetarianism, though, he did not adopt the lifestyle voluntarily. Doctors prescribed a meat-free diet for his digestive problems. Toward the end of his life he might have been a vegan. (Some decades ago the word "vegan" was a taboo, although it is an obvious step up for vegetarians). - "It always seems to me that man was not born to be carnivore." - Albert Einstein -"Our task must be to FREE ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace ALL living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty." - Albert Einstein - "Only too things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein - "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein .... however, that is what humanity is doing for millennia. Just a few words of wisdom which motivate me to be "aggressive" and feel the need to "go berserk" as Kittygirl put it. When I see a statement: "Vegetables will kill you." ... I guess I go berserk, or that "vegans wither and are slowly dying" yes I'm "aggressive" because spreading misinformation, any misinformation, is dangerous. -"The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of people who are evil, but because of people who don't do anything about it." - Albert Einstein - "Those who have the privilege to know have the duty to act." - Albert Einstein
Frankly, as long as you do not only eat organic meat products (or no meat products at all), your argument does not hold. Factory farming of beef and other meats also means a life in agony for any of the animals kept there. Pigs and cows are known to be intelligent and caring; chicken might not be as bright as them but their are undoubtedly social and sentient. I will not judge whether humans are entitled to eat animals or not, but raising them in any ways but to those standard of organic meat it undoubtedly unethical, and anyone eating meat with arguments like "I cannot afford organic" supports this cruelty, although it is hidden away from us in the Western world.
Hans, who wants to know truth will find it, no matter how much the meat, dairy, egg industries hid it and how much misinformation they spread. I would argue that no animal is meat, all animals want to live free of pain and suffering and do NOT want to die, just like you and I and any other human. Did you ever tried plant-based proteins - Beyond Burger, Impossible Burger, any Gardein products an other brands?
"He who causes suffering, shall suffer. There is no escape." - Buddha

Hey I just met you, and this is craaaaaaaazy, but here’s my squeak toy! So love me mabye! (Couldn’t help it)
Load More Replies...I’ve seen videos of these dog meat places and they are truly barbaric, sadly many animals are treated like this before slaughter. Lovely to see that Mo knows how to play and enjoy life.
Hannah, sorry will not help those poor suffering animals. Please join/support any reputable animal protection organization, sigh petitions, speak out against animal cruelty, support those who fight for them in the field financially if you can, every little makes a big difference, spread the word about these atrocities and how they influence human behavior. - "The link between animal cruelty and violence against humans is undeniable."
This breaks my heart, because there are so many other dogs that aren’t being saved or rescued. I’m extremely happy for this sweet girl and I hope she gets the best life!
I think this is so great, but I wish that ALL animals bred and raised for consumption could be treated better. =( Pigs are intelligent animals similar to dogs, and it makes me wince when I think about them being mistreated just as well. And no, I'm not vegan or vegetarian, I just strongly believe that humans and animals can live together in better conditions. I also strongly distrust facilities that mistreat animals, because you know a farm doing stuff like that is also cutting corners in other ways as well.
I hate human race rather than ppl. It may look the same, but thankfully there was those awesome who rescued the pup and those awesome who adopted her and gave her the life she always deserved. But yeah our race suck.
Load More Replies...Bernardita, there are only a few of those awesome ones, and they need big help. Please speak out against animal cruelty, support a reputable animal protection organization, financially if you can, sign petitions to government authorities to outlaw those abhorrent animal atrocities.
I wish I could make disgusting people that abuse animals feel the same way they made them feel. It's absolutely gut wrenching. I cant read or see animal abuse. It makes me very depressed and I'll dwell on it for days I try to skip to the end of these posts when the animals are happy loved and healthy. People should get life in prison and yes I'm a vegan. I don't judge animal and companion eaters I just can't do it myself.
By companion animal I mean all animals bc every animal is just like our beloved pets. I wish we'd do away w animal slaughter all together. It's horrible for climate change that will be our karma for all this abuse and death.
Load More Replies...K Witmer, thank you so much for your kindness to animals, for your compassionate life style, for your non - destructive way of life, for conserving nature, for not polluting and destroying our planet. If you can, please support reputable animal protection organization, sign petitions to help spare as many animals unconscionable pain and suffering as much as possible. Or support any animal sanctuary, including farm animal sanctuary, there you will not see how much those lucky survivors suffer prior to their rescue.
Who ever wanted to eat sweet baby Mo, really missed out on a great opportunity to have such a amazing dog. But in some cultures this does happen, and it just a way of life. Im not saying this is ok at all, but some animals get the short end of the stick, and it sucks too. I wish this happened to less dogs and other animals .
To claim it's a way of life is the lazy way out. If that kind of thinking would have been applied to slavery, nothing would have changed. No life should be depending on the sufferings of other lives, it doesn't have to be like that.
Load More Replies...What about that would never happen to any animal? It is possible, it would keep our planet alive and clean, free of deadly bacteria and viruses and human bodies healthy and free of chronic pain. The compassionate diet, universal kindness is a win - win - win situation.
Thank you so much Janine, we really appreciate it x
Poor dog... we have other meats. Like ham or beef and tons of others so I don’t understand. I have 2 dogs and I bet ( if they could read) they would be mad if they saw this!
I know someone stated something similar elsewhere. But eating dog/cat/horse/cows these are all cultural differences. I dont think that the inhumane conditions are acceptable dont get me wrong but we view dogs and cats not as food simply because they are domesticated animals. If they were raised as chickens, cows, or hogs then we'd only think of them as livestock.
Load More Replies...Dale, do you realize that ALL those cultural differences, no matter if their victims are chickens, cows, pigs, turkeys, dogs, cats, any sentient beings are the reason that our planet is dying, and we are self- destructing? Deadly viruses, like Covid19, are man-enabled, and destroying the wild lands and catching wild animals and throwing them into fire - ALIVE, will not save us.
Skidanpump, those "other meats" were living, breathing, sentient beings too!!!
Skidanpump, do you realize that "other meats" were living, breathing, sentient, innocent beings, or you just don't give a damn?
This made me cry. Who would do this to an innocent animal? I will never understand. It’s so nice to see this sweet angel happy and healthy now, with her new loving parents.
Mo is now living her best life which is so lovely to see!
Load More Replies...I’m not sure why you would single me out, because you don’t know the first thing about me, and what my diet consists of. Perhaps think before you reply?
I don't single out anybody, I'm just responding to comments. However, I understand what you mean, Susan, I will edit my comment.
I have a lil cat we found on the streets, I don’t really know how to put a picture on tho
*grabs electrified flowerpot* i'ma just go-um....wash my hair....totally not murder somebody....hehehe....
I will say it again... I am 100%, categorically against eating carnivores. And am also 100% against abusing/mistreating animals reared for their meat. People globally need to eat much less meat- mammals, fish, fowl etc.- and factory farming needs to be abolished forever.
Oskar vanZandt and Doubleheader and all those meat-eaters, you are, how should I put it nicely, you just do not want to admit that meat is murder... and unconscionable suffering and fear, agony; and that is because you just like and "must" have meat, and dairy, and tons of eggs. You know how is this called, don't you? Please try plant-based meats - Beyond Burger, Impossible Burger, Gardein products, and other brands, it is not difficult to be a compassionate consumer. Your body, our earth and suffering animals will thank you for it. Please see the video and share this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9rSeKFcx188t=404s
Load More Replies...Oscar vanZandt, I don't know what you mean by "eating less animals" and how will it help to preserve our planet. Every day about 227,000 people are added to our planet and are/will raise billions upon the billions of animals for "food", even if they will eat less meat - it'll still cause destruction of our planet.
I love Mo 💘 her nose is the perfect nose for kissing and booping 🥰 so glad she found a loving forever home.
Thank you Bored Panda for encouraging people to support animal protection organizations. Please join us in the fight against animal cruelty. Crying or complaining about human abhorrent cruelty will not save animals or humanity.
May God punish who ever did this to her. I pray for God to take revenge on this person as he or she deserves. This beautiful little girl deserves to be loved and please Jesus in your name bless her and heal her body. Amen

Very admirable work but a lot of legal meat farms worldwide treat animals like s**t too! Meat is too cheap, there are more pigs in my country than people! Some numbers: https://www.meatinstitute.org/index.php?ht=d/sp/i/47465/pid/47465

Hey covid, there are ppl in bali torturing good doggos... dunno if u can do something about it... it would be cool if u could open the cages too.
There are "people" like that everywhere in the world. covid has a lot of work to do to free our planet.
Is there a list of every country that treats dogs like this? I never would have expected Bali and I don't want to patronize places like that.
Thos kind 0f ahit makes me absolutely sick to my stomach...dogs are not food!! Any kind of human that does this to an animal should have it done to themselves see how you like it.
Maybe whoever did this will be reincarnated as an insect that can only survive eating excrement.
ALL life is sacred. Meat is just death given cute food recipe names. Call it what it really is, murdered, dead bloody flesh.

Poor, pup cutie pie. Just a question...Why is this automatically linked to some nefarious dog eating syndicate? Perhaps she was just a victim of abuse and never meant to be eaten. Sad either way.
Hi Julie, the dog meat trade is still going on behind the scenes in Bali. It is illegal, but it still happens
Load More Replies...That's horrible. Is there a way I can help bring these horrible business down in Bali and other places?
can you help by reporting it to the authority or cop? thought bali is in Indonesia and it is a conservative place with the majority of the religion that won't eat dog meat
This is typically how dogs are trussed up on meat farms, either mouths taped shut or open tin cans forced over their snouts, legs tied together and thrown around like a sack.
No it is not linked automatically to that. I have seen dog meat farms. You cannot guess that it is automatically linked to that. No offense.
Tame panda it all end in horrific automatic cruelty. Please denounce animal cruelty where ever it happens and don't excuse it. Be like Yu Kewei, Ai Wei Wei , Sun Li Yao Ming, and Jackie Chan.
Look, nobody treats pigs in slaughterhouses and stuff as bad as dogs at dog markets. It's true barbarian work, those people believe the dog meat will taste better if they suffer immense pain before death. This goes from boiling, skinning, burning, roasting dogs alive, beating them dead with baseball bats, tying them together and tossing them around, breaking their bones, cutting off their muzzles and pass .

@RiaDeCatterpillar Quick question: Why would you even ask that the answer is pretty obvious :)
I just don't understand, thousands of dogs are put down because they aren't adopted every year, and in lots of cultures, dog meat is something that they traditionally eat. lots of people have pet bunnies and yet eating rabbit meat is perfectly acceptable. So why can't people eat stray dog meat if they want to?? Maybe it is because i don't have a dog, I just feel like eating dog meat isn't as awful as everyone makes it out to be.

The nature sure is cruel, if human beings want to co-exist peacefully with each other they must disassociate themselves from nature's brutality first!!! Please do not spread misinformation how plant-based diet effects human health when you did not experienced it yourself. -"The only source of knowledge is experience." - Albert Einstein. The statements I made in this post regarding health benefits of the plant-based diet are from my experience, and testimonials of other vegans. We do not have health and opioid crises because people eat only plants.
"Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances of survival of life on Earth as much as evolution to a vegetarian diet." - Albert Einstein ... The super genius was major proponent of vegetarianism, though, he did not adopt the lifestyle voluntarily. Doctors prescribed a meat-free diet for his digestive problems. Toward the end of his life he might have been a vegan. (Some decades ago the word "vegan" was a taboo, although it is an obvious step up for vegetarians). - "It always seems to me that man was not born to be carnivore." - Albert Einstein -"Our task must be to FREE ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace ALL living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty." - Albert Einstein - "Only too things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein - "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein .... however, that is what humanity is doing for millennia. Just a few words of wisdom which motivate me to be "aggressive" and feel the need to "go berserk" as Kittygirl put it. When I see a statement: "Vegetables will kill you." ... I guess I go berserk, or that "vegans wither and are slowly dying" yes I'm "aggressive" because spreading misinformation, any misinformation, is dangerous. -"The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of people who are evil, but because of people who don't do anything about it." - Albert Einstein - "Those who have the privilege to know have the duty to act." - Albert Einstein
Frankly, as long as you do not only eat organic meat products (or no meat products at all), your argument does not hold. Factory farming of beef and other meats also means a life in agony for any of the animals kept there. Pigs and cows are known to be intelligent and caring; chicken might not be as bright as them but their are undoubtedly social and sentient. I will not judge whether humans are entitled to eat animals or not, but raising them in any ways but to those standard of organic meat it undoubtedly unethical, and anyone eating meat with arguments like "I cannot afford organic" supports this cruelty, although it is hidden away from us in the Western world.
Hans, who wants to know truth will find it, no matter how much the meat, dairy, egg industries hid it and how much misinformation they spread. I would argue that no animal is meat, all animals want to live free of pain and suffering and do NOT want to die, just like you and I and any other human. Did you ever tried plant-based proteins - Beyond Burger, Impossible Burger, any Gardein products an other brands?
"He who causes suffering, shall suffer. There is no escape." - Buddha
Somebody down-voting Buddha's statement? "It's funny how everybody considers honesty a virtue, yet no one wants to hear the truth." - Who down-voted Buddha statement sure doesn't want to hear the ultimate truth.
Hey I just met you, and this is craaaaaaaazy, but here’s my squeak toy! So love me mabye! (Couldn’t help it)
Load More Replies...I’ve seen videos of these dog meat places and they are truly barbaric, sadly many animals are treated like this before slaughter. Lovely to see that Mo knows how to play and enjoy life.
Hannah, sorry will not help those poor suffering animals. Please join/support any reputable animal protection organization, sigh petitions, speak out against animal cruelty, support those who fight for them in the field financially if you can, every little makes a big difference, spread the word about these atrocities and how they influence human behavior. - "The link between animal cruelty and violence against humans is undeniable."
This breaks my heart, because there are so many other dogs that aren’t being saved or rescued. I’m extremely happy for this sweet girl and I hope she gets the best life!
I think this is so great, but I wish that ALL animals bred and raised for consumption could be treated better. =( Pigs are intelligent animals similar to dogs, and it makes me wince when I think about them being mistreated just as well. And no, I'm not vegan or vegetarian, I just strongly believe that humans and animals can live together in better conditions. I also strongly distrust facilities that mistreat animals, because you know a farm doing stuff like that is also cutting corners in other ways as well.
I hate human race rather than ppl. It may look the same, but thankfully there was those awesome who rescued the pup and those awesome who adopted her and gave her the life she always deserved. But yeah our race suck.
Load More Replies...Bernardita, there are only a few of those awesome ones, and they need big help. Please speak out against animal cruelty, support a reputable animal protection organization, financially if you can, sign petitions to government authorities to outlaw those abhorrent animal atrocities.
I wish I could make disgusting people that abuse animals feel the same way they made them feel. It's absolutely gut wrenching. I cant read or see animal abuse. It makes me very depressed and I'll dwell on it for days I try to skip to the end of these posts when the animals are happy loved and healthy. People should get life in prison and yes I'm a vegan. I don't judge animal and companion eaters I just can't do it myself.
By companion animal I mean all animals bc every animal is just like our beloved pets. I wish we'd do away w animal slaughter all together. It's horrible for climate change that will be our karma for all this abuse and death.
Load More Replies...K Witmer, thank you so much for your kindness to animals, for your compassionate life style, for your non - destructive way of life, for conserving nature, for not polluting and destroying our planet. If you can, please support reputable animal protection organization, sign petitions to help spare as many animals unconscionable pain and suffering as much as possible. Or support any animal sanctuary, including farm animal sanctuary, there you will not see how much those lucky survivors suffer prior to their rescue.
Who ever wanted to eat sweet baby Mo, really missed out on a great opportunity to have such a amazing dog. But in some cultures this does happen, and it just a way of life. Im not saying this is ok at all, but some animals get the short end of the stick, and it sucks too. I wish this happened to less dogs and other animals .
To claim it's a way of life is the lazy way out. If that kind of thinking would have been applied to slavery, nothing would have changed. No life should be depending on the sufferings of other lives, it doesn't have to be like that.
Load More Replies...What about that would never happen to any animal? It is possible, it would keep our planet alive and clean, free of deadly bacteria and viruses and human bodies healthy and free of chronic pain. The compassionate diet, universal kindness is a win - win - win situation.
Thank you so much Janine, we really appreciate it x
Poor dog... we have other meats. Like ham or beef and tons of others so I don’t understand. I have 2 dogs and I bet ( if they could read) they would be mad if they saw this!
I know someone stated something similar elsewhere. But eating dog/cat/horse/cows these are all cultural differences. I dont think that the inhumane conditions are acceptable dont get me wrong but we view dogs and cats not as food simply because they are domesticated animals. If they were raised as chickens, cows, or hogs then we'd only think of them as livestock.
Load More Replies...Dale, do you realize that ALL those cultural differences, no matter if their victims are chickens, cows, pigs, turkeys, dogs, cats, any sentient beings are the reason that our planet is dying, and we are self- destructing? Deadly viruses, like Covid19, are man-enabled, and destroying the wild lands and catching wild animals and throwing them into fire - ALIVE, will not save us.
Skidanpump, those "other meats" were living, breathing, sentient beings too!!!
Skidanpump, do you realize that "other meats" were living, breathing, sentient, innocent beings, or you just don't give a damn?
This made me cry. Who would do this to an innocent animal? I will never understand. It’s so nice to see this sweet angel happy and healthy now, with her new loving parents.
Mo is now living her best life which is so lovely to see!
Load More Replies...I’m not sure why you would single me out, because you don’t know the first thing about me, and what my diet consists of. Perhaps think before you reply?
I don't single out anybody, I'm just responding to comments. However, I understand what you mean, Susan, I will edit my comment.
I have a lil cat we found on the streets, I don’t really know how to put a picture on tho
*grabs electrified flowerpot* i'ma just go-um....wash my hair....totally not murder somebody....hehehe....
I will say it again... I am 100%, categorically against eating carnivores. And am also 100% against abusing/mistreating animals reared for their meat. People globally need to eat much less meat- mammals, fish, fowl etc.- and factory farming needs to be abolished forever.
Oskar vanZandt and Doubleheader and all those meat-eaters, you are, how should I put it nicely, you just do not want to admit that meat is murder... and unconscionable suffering and fear, agony; and that is because you just like and "must" have meat, and dairy, and tons of eggs. You know how is this called, don't you? Please try plant-based meats - Beyond Burger, Impossible Burger, Gardein products, and other brands, it is not difficult to be a compassionate consumer. Your body, our earth and suffering animals will thank you for it. Please see the video and share this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9rSeKFcx188t=404s
Load More Replies...Oscar vanZandt, I don't know what you mean by "eating less animals" and how will it help to preserve our planet. Every day about 227,000 people are added to our planet and are/will raise billions upon the billions of animals for "food", even if they will eat less meat - it'll still cause destruction of our planet.
I love Mo 💘 her nose is the perfect nose for kissing and booping 🥰 so glad she found a loving forever home.
Thank you Bored Panda for encouraging people to support animal protection organizations. Please join us in the fight against animal cruelty. Crying or complaining about human abhorrent cruelty will not save animals or humanity.
May God punish who ever did this to her. I pray for God to take revenge on this person as he or she deserves. This beautiful little girl deserves to be loved and please Jesus in your name bless her and heal her body. Amen
This is crucial for us, please watch and share https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9rSeKFcx188t=404s
Very admirable work but a lot of legal meat farms worldwide treat animals like s**t too! Meat is too cheap, there are more pigs in my country than people! Some numbers: https://www.meatinstitute.org/index.php?ht=d/sp/i/47465/pid/47465
Agree Wim , also everyone please see and share https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9rSeKFcx188t=404s
Hey covid, there are ppl in bali torturing good doggos... dunno if u can do something about it... it would be cool if u could open the cages too.
There are "people" like that everywhere in the world. covid has a lot of work to do to free our planet.
Is there a list of every country that treats dogs like this? I never would have expected Bali and I don't want to patronize places like that.
Thos kind 0f ahit makes me absolutely sick to my stomach...dogs are not food!! Any kind of human that does this to an animal should have it done to themselves see how you like it.
Maybe whoever did this will be reincarnated as an insect that can only survive eating excrement.
ALL life is sacred. Meat is just death given cute food recipe names. Call it what it really is, murdered, dead bloody flesh.
All those down-votes of comments like Lori's!!! - "No one is more hated than the one who says the truth." - Plato (427 - 347 BC /BCE) Greek philosopher
Poor, pup cutie pie. Just a question...Why is this automatically linked to some nefarious dog eating syndicate? Perhaps she was just a victim of abuse and never meant to be eaten. Sad either way.
Hi Julie, the dog meat trade is still going on behind the scenes in Bali. It is illegal, but it still happens
Load More Replies...That's horrible. Is there a way I can help bring these horrible business down in Bali and other places?
can you help by reporting it to the authority or cop? thought bali is in Indonesia and it is a conservative place with the majority of the religion that won't eat dog meat
This is typically how dogs are trussed up on meat farms, either mouths taped shut or open tin cans forced over their snouts, legs tied together and thrown around like a sack.
No it is not linked automatically to that. I have seen dog meat farms. You cannot guess that it is automatically linked to that. No offense.
Tame panda it all end in horrific automatic cruelty. Please denounce animal cruelty where ever it happens and don't excuse it. Be like Yu Kewei, Ai Wei Wei , Sun Li Yao Ming, and Jackie Chan.
Look, nobody treats pigs in slaughterhouses and stuff as bad as dogs at dog markets. It's true barbarian work, those people believe the dog meat will taste better if they suffer immense pain before death. This goes from boiling, skinning, burning, roasting dogs alive, beating them dead with baseball bats, tying them together and tossing them around, breaking their bones, cutting off their muzzles and pass .
Load More Replies...Sorry, I accidentally pressed send. *Paws What I want to say with that, a pig slaughterhouse is heaven compared to a dog flesh market. Search Yulin Dog Meat festival on YouTube if you have strong nerves and you see what I mean
Quick question: Are you an emotionless ass**le??? Gfy!!!
Load More Replies...Oh yes, "good" people who do not want to hear ugly truth are down-voting like crazy. - Cruelty to animals is one of the most significant vices of low and ignoble people. Whereover one notices them, they constitute a sign of ignorance and brutality which cannot be painted over even by all the evidence of wealth and luxury." - Alexander von Humboldt ..... unconscionable cruelty to animals by those who commit those atrocities or those who support it, enable it for their own purpose, does not know any boundaries, rich, poor, men, women, all races, nationalities, religions.....
@RiaDeCatterpillar Quick question: Why would you even ask that the answer is pretty obvious :)
I just don't understand, thousands of dogs are put down because they aren't adopted every year, and in lots of cultures, dog meat is something that they traditionally eat. lots of people have pet bunnies and yet eating rabbit meat is perfectly acceptable. So why can't people eat stray dog meat if they want to?? Maybe it is because i don't have a dog, I just feel like eating dog meat isn't as awful as everyone makes it out to be.
@Christina Uhlir Not trying to be rude, but A. you aren't going to convert anyone to veganism by being mean to them, and B. NGL, you remind me of that Vegan Teacher
