Meet Hunter. ❤️ Hunter was rescued from a slaughterhouse truck in East Asia. He and the other dogs packed onto that truck were being taken toward a horrific fate... but our team, alongside other rescuers, intercepted it in time. Every single dog was saved.

Hunter had survived the unthinkable, but his story wasn’t going to end there. After months of treatment, healing, and learning what it feels like to finally be safe, Hunter is now healthy and thriving at our shelter.

And he’s only 1 year old.

He has his whole life ahead of him... a lifetime that should be filled with soft beds, adventures, belly rubs, and the security of knowing he will never be hurt again.

Hunter has already fought for his life. Now all he needs is someone to give him the life he fought so hard to have. ❤️

Hunter is ready for his second chance. Could it be with you? If you are interested in adopting or sponsoring Hunter, please visit our website at Run2TheRescue.org 🙏🏽

❤️‍🩹 Watch this moment. ❤️ Mickey is taking his first steps unassisted.

After being rescued from a slaughterhouse, Mickey was diagnosed with Leishmaniasis, a devastating disease that has wreaked havoc on his little body. His road to recovery will take months of treatment, and the cost of his care is incredibly high.

But Mickey is fighting.

Through the pain, the weakness, and everything he has endured… his tail is still wagging. 🥹 He isn’t ready to give up... And neither are we.

If you want to stand for something today, stand with Mickey. Help us give this beautiful boy the chance to beat this disease and finally live the life he was always meant to have. 🙏🏽❤️

Keep going, Mickey. We’re right here with you. To help Mickey, please donate here: https://linktr.ee/R2TR 🙏🏽

Mickey is hurting, but he is still fighting. 💔 https://linktr.ee/R2TR This beautiful golden boy was rescued from slaughter and is suffering from leishmaniasis, a serious disease caused by the Leishmania parasite. In dogs, it can affect the skin, coat, eyes, weight, energy levels, and even internal organs. That is why Mickey looks so sick right now. His body has been fighting something much bigger than he should ever have had to face.

But leishmaniasis does not have to be the end of Mickey’s story. With months of consistent treatment, careful monitoring, medication, and supportive care, Mickey can improve, regain his strength, and go on to live a comfortable life. The problem is that getting him there will not be easy... or inexpensive. Mickey needs hospitalization now, followed by ongoing treatment and veterinary care for months to come.

And through all of this… look at that tail. It is still wagging. 🥺💛 He is not ready to give up. So we cannot give up on him either.

Please help us give Mickey the time, treatment, and fighting chance he deserves. Every donation, no matter the amount, helps us keep saying yes to this sweet boy until he is strong enough to walk out of that hospital and into the life waiting for him. Donation link: https://linktr.ee/R2TR 🙏🏽

Keep wagging that tail, Mickey. We’re fighting with you. 💛🐾

Please donate and share. 🙏🏽

Meet Toffee 💔🐾 Toffee was found running the streets of Beijing alongside another larger poodle. They had been abandoned by their owner and left to fend for themselves... where they were at very real risk of being picked up by a butcher.

Thankfully, the two found a foster home together. But now, the foster only wants to keep the larger poodle... leaving little Toffee with nowhere to go. 💔

We never say no to any dog.

Toffee will be coming to our Run 2 The Rescue shelter in Beijing, where he will receive the medical care he needs, be kept safe and loved, and begin preparing for the next chapter of his life. Toffee is scared right now, and rightfully so after everything he has been through. But our promise to him is to give him a happy future that will make up for all of the bad that happened in is past.

Soon, this sweet little boy who was once unwanted and abandoned will be ready for something he should have had all along... A forever loving family who are committed to loving him always ❤️

Welcome to the R2TR family, Toffee. If you'd like more information about adopting or sponsoring Toffee, please visit our website at run2therescue.org 🙏🏽

This little man’s name is Sammy. ❤️ He was rescued from a breeder in East Asia who was selling him to be slaughtered. At only 1 year old, Sammy has already survived more than any dog ever should.

Sammy may be small, but he is mighty. Despite everything he has endured, his heart is still open. He still trusts. He still loves. And he’s still waiting for someone to show him just how beautiful life can be.

Now Sammy is ready to leave his past behind and take on his most important job yet… being someone’s beloved little lap dog. ❤️🐾

If you are interested in adopting Sammy, please visit our website at Run2TheRescue.org ❤️

🐾 Kronk’s Korner ✨ Words of Wisdom 🐾 Even the bravest among us get scared sometimes. Today I had to see my doctor, and Sweet Pea came along just to be by my side. ❤️

I think that’s what a true friend should be a little bit of peace when the world feels scary. Someone you can lean on when you need a little extra courage.

And the best part? My appointment went really well. I’m healing and getting better! ❤️

Life is a whole lot easier when you don’t have to face the hard days alone. Sometimes "We Get By With A Little Help From Our Friends" ✨❤️🎶

Remember, Kronky loves you ❤️🐾

MEET JAKE ❤️ We’d like to introduce you to a very special boy named Jake.

Six weeks ago, we rescued Jake along with others from an Asian puppy mill owner who was selling his dogs to be slaughtered in the dog meat trade. Thankfully, every dog that day was saved... and Jake was one of them. 🐾

There’s something incredibly special about dogs like Jake. They have seen some of the absolute worst of humanity, and yet somehow, they’re still willing to see the best in you.

They still trust.
They still love.
They still hope. ❤️

Jake’s past may be heartbreaking, but it doesn’t have to define his future. All he needs now is the second chance he has been waiting for... and someone who will show him that the world can be kind.

Welcome to Run 2 The Rescue, Jake. Your worst days are behind you now. ❤️🐾 Please share Jake's story to help him find a home! If you are interested in Jake please visit our website at Run2TheRescue.org.
