No Dogs Left Behind founder Jeffrey Beri rescues puppies from slaughterhouses, dog traffickers and dog meat trucks in East Asia. NEW YORK -- Forty-four good boys and girls arrived at John F. Kennedy Airport on Thursday on the last leg of a rescue journey from China.
“I started playing all the music as everyone got settled in and there was a good amount of silence once it started.” said Kiera Mejia of The Ark, the Animal Reception Center at JFK.“We’ve been waiting a long time,” said Mark Goldstein, 59, who drove from Brambleton, Va., that morning to take home Blossom the miniature poodle.
Beri says the dogs are bred for food, but sometimes stolen from their owners, with their leashes cut in backyards.
