‘He lived in hopelessness with no indication that life would ever get any better. Then he was rescued and this is the best life he’s ever lived.’: Dog rescued from Korean meat farm becomes the sweetest, most joyous pupper defying his traumatic past

It is rather wild to think that the dog meat trade is still a thing in 2025, but depending on who you ask, some might say that all meat trades are a little outdated for our modern day. But thankfully, just because the industry exists, that does not mean that there are not wholesome hoomans who do whatever they can to release the captive animals, giving them a new leash on life.

Which is exactly what happened to the lucky pupper in this story, who ended up travelling halfway around the world to meet his new pawrent and become the bestest boy to have ever barked. This is the story that proves that no matter where you came from and what you were told that you are, you can always take things into your own hands and become the person, or darling dog, that you want to be.
