A Malaysian woman who recently went viral for exposing an alleged backyard breeding mill has successfully rescued all 70 abused dogs from the property
Last week, Shan shared a heartbreaking post showing rows of Poodles, Pomeranians, Beagles, Jack Russells, and Shih Tzus confined in filthy cages, many appearing sick, malnourished, and even debarked so they couldn't cry out for help.
Some were found with tumours, while others had reportedly never stepped outside their cages their entire lives.
"They were born only to suffer in the hands of humans. Never loved, only used. Locked in cages their whole life, used and used again to breed, because someone out there wants a cute 'branded' dog," Shan wrote.
At the time, she was urgently appealing for donations to "bail out" the dogs, cover their vet bills, and secure foster homes.
Thanks to overwhelming public support, she's since confirmed that every single dog has been rescued
"The funds raised will be used for their medical bills, to spay/neuter them, to get them groomed and keep them safe at boarding till they get adopted!" she shared in an update.
Now that the dogs are safe, her focus has shifted to finding loving foster homes to help them recover from years of trauma
All potential foster carers will be thoroughly vetted to ensure the dogs are placed in safe, caring environments.
"Please do not expect your new foster dog to be perfect. The breeding mill dogs have been caged their whole life and many have been through trauma. They will be forever grateful for your love and care," she wrote.
If you'd like to foster a dog, you can fill out this form. You may also adopt any of the dogs here.
If you aren't able to care for dogs, you can support Woof My Roof in other ways.
Let this be a reminder to all pet lovers to stop funding animal cruelty
Many of these dogs were bred only to meet the demand for specific breeds — a painful reminder that the desire for "branded" pets directly fuels cruel breeding practices.
Shan emphasised the importance of adopting instead of buying pets, reminding the public to "Adopt, don't shop".
