A touching, viral video shows a compassionate exchange between a passerby and a dog destined for slaughter at a Chinese meat store.
Filmed last year, it just recently got popular on the internet. And there’s more to the story — the woman who extended her hand to the visibly frightened pup rescued the dog from likely slaughter and provided him with a loving forever home, MailOnline reported.
In a plea to the Chinese government to pass animal protection laws, the dog’s new guardian shared the footage on Douyin — the Chinese version of TikTok — last week.
The American Eskimo dog, now named Yuan Yuan, was probably stolen from his family as a pet and taken to the slaughterhouse. His rescuer describes him as sweet and joyful in her social media posts, and says that loves smiling at people.
Heartwarming stories like this offer hope in the fight against dog meat and remind us of how important it is to speak up for animals.
If you haven’t yet, sign Lady Freethinker’s petition to ban the cruel dog and cat meat trade in China, so innocent dogs like Yuan Yuan aren’t slaughtered and eaten.

Too many times you hear of dogs being stolen from their homes. Why dont owners keep them inside?
Thanku for rescuing him and giving him a loving furever home 🐶🐕🐾💜👩
I have quit eating meat about 40 years ago after my divorce from a man who was a meat eater. At 74 years old, I am very healthy and vigorous! I cook all my meals and very seldom eat outside and now with covid19 and my new kitchen range, I am in heaven..
I am so glad to hear that there are a few compassionate individuals in China. I’d like to say “thanks so much” to this passerby who has a wonderful and loving heart because I know that many passed by with a hard heart and could care less about his well-being. You saved a life and gave love and a loving fur-ever home. Believe me, this beautiful dog is truly grateful. May God bless you richly for you have cared for His creation.
Pourquoi flouter les barbares sanguinaires ? Honte à ces gens.
GOD BLESS HER FOR SAVING HIM & GIVING HIM A FUR EVER LOVING HOME!!!!
