Hey there, amazing supporters!
First off, I want to apologize for going a bit silent recently. To be fully transparent, I haven't been doing too well health-wise and have been dealing with a lot behind the scenes. It's been a struggle, but I'm slowly working my way through it. Thanks for your patience and for continuing to show up for our mission even when I've been a little MIA. I am still dealing with the health issues but hoping it gets better.
I also have to share the latest on our sweet Celeste's journey, and I'm just overflowing with gratitude and hope because of all of you. Thanks to your unbelievable kindness and generosity, we've hit a huge milestone – we've raised 50% of the money needed for Celeste's critical dental surgery!
When I first told you Celeste's story, it was absolutely heartbreaking. Rescued from unimaginable cruelty, this brave little pup was suffering terribly from severe gum disease, leaving her in constant pain and unable to eat solid food properly. But even with all she's been through, Celeste's beautiful spirit hasn't been broken. Her determination to live her best life has inspired us all.
Today, I'm over the moon to share that your donations have gotten us halfway to our fundraising goal. This incredible response means we're that much closer to getting Celeste the life-changing dental work she so urgently needs. Right now, the poor girl is on a liquid diet since anything solid is just too painful and difficult for her. While we've made that temporary adjustment, it's obviously not a long-term solution. Celeste deserves to really enjoy her meals without any pain and live out her days in total comfort.
But we can't stop now – we still need to raise the other 50% to make sure sweet Celeste gets her surgery before it's too late. Every single day counts, so the urgency is real. I'm personally asking each of you to keep supporting however you can, whether it's sharing her story, making another donation, or just sending your positive vibes her way. I truly mean it when I say every little bit makes a huge difference.
Celeste's road from a survivor of the dog meat trade to a beloved fur-baby in the US has been nothing short of miraculous. With your amazing support, we can write that next incredible chapter for her – a story filled with great health, pure happiness, and finally getting all the love and care she should've had from the very start.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you to each of you for your compassion, your generosity, and for sticking by Celeste through this journey. Let's keep this positive momentum going strong and get our girl the bright future she deserves more than anything.
You all are the absolute best. Thank you for caring. Thank you for taking action. Thank you for being a part of Celeste's world.

Here's a video of Celeste's teeth.
Since she's in a lot of pain she won't let us get a better picture and this is the best we could get to show you.
As you can see, her teeth are rotten and need to be extracted ASAP as she's in a lot of pain. We only have about a week left and were only able to raise $330 so far. We still need to raise $1670 to secure enough funds for her surgery.
Time is not on our side but we have faith in our supporters that you would help us just like you've helped us in the past with countless other rescues. We're ever so grateful for all the support and we would appreciate any help towards Celeste's surgery.

Dear Friends,
We wanted to share some amazing news. A few months ago we started our new project where we decided to rescue animals from the dog and cat meat trade in Vietnam. We were successfully able to rescue 3 dogs and 6 cats. This was only possible due to your unwavering support as we would not have been able to rescue these babies without you stepping in to help.
To further this great news, our first group of rescues successfully landed in Chicago, United States in partnership with Precious Pets Almost Home (PPAH). Now, they will begin new lives of freedom, care, and possibility in the US without any fear of being killed for their meat.
I went to Vietnam to get the rescues out and accidentally passed by one of the meat markets in Hanoi. The atrocities I witnessed there is something I can not unsee and it breaks my heart to know that while I write, there are thousands of animals being slaughtered for their meat. Including dogs and cats. We at PSA promise to educate and raise awareness in Vietnam and we will continue to do so whatever it takes until every single animal is safe and healthy. No animal deserves to be killed for their meat and as omnivores, we have a choice. The choice to be humane and the choice to go vegan.
Thank you kind followers for helping us help these animals. Together, we are dismantling the meat trade chain by chain emancipating precious souls one rescue at a time. Its only with your support that we were able to get Celeste, Piper, Asher, and Juno out of Hanoi, Vietnam to Chicago, US. Currently, Celeste is adopted while Piper, Asher, and Juno are decompressing with all the changes but you may reach out to PPAH if in Chicago and looking to adopt.
Stay tuned for more updates as we rescue more lives from the unimaginable abuse in Vietnam and Pakistan. From the depths of my heart, thank you for standing by our side and being the heroes these animals so desperately needed. Your compassion is changing the world.
With gratitude,
Hassan Bokhari

A little update on Juno who was rescued from the Vietnam Meat Market.
Juno was absolutely terrified and would hiss at anyone who came after she was rescued just because of everything she went through. It took some time and a lot of love and affection that she was able to trust humans again and now she is the most adorable little girl.
Juno's fosters love her but unfortunately, just like our other rescues in Vietnam, we have until January to bring them out of the country and into the US. We started a JustGiving to see if kind followers would be willing to help us out.
Please click the link below to head to our JustGiving and consider sending a donation so we can get Juno and our other rescues to safety in the US.
