A man from Khanh Hoa Province, south-central Vietnam spent VND24 million (US$1,027) rescuing 31 dogs from a slaughterhouse and is now looking for their owners.
The man, 46-year-old Do Minh Khoi from Nha Trang City, which is the provincial capital, shared the story to his Facebook page on Wednesday.
According to Khoi’s account, his two dogs were stolen while he was on a business trip in Hanoi, prompting him and his son to scour dozens of slaughterhouses between Nha Trang City and Dien Khanh District, also in Khanh Hoa Province, to find their beloved pets.
On Wednesday morning, Khoi arrived at a facility in Dien Khanh and saw dozens of dogs locked in cages, ready to be slaughtered.
He wound up buying all of them from the abattoir in order to save them.

“Many of the dogs were exhausted and lying still, while some were sticking their paws out as if they were asking me to save them,” Khoi recalled.
The man said he paid a total of VND20 million ($856) to buy the dogs and another VND4 million ($171) to transport them to his home in Nha Trang.
Khoi later posted the story on Facebook in the hope of finding each dog’s owner.
As of Thursday, two people had been reunited with their pets thanks to Khoi.
“Seeing the dogs wagging their tails when they saw their owners made me really happy,” Khoi said.
Ha Thuy Tram, 28, from Khanh Hoa’s Cam Lam District, said she lost her dog several days earlier.

Tram’s family had raised the dog for two years before it was stolen. They searched several dog meat shops and slaughterhouses in the locality after the canine disappeared.
“I discovered that my dog had been rescued after seeing Khoi’s status on Facebook, so I decided to travel all the way to Nha Trang to get my pet,” Tram said.
“I wanted to give Khoi some money to thank him for saving my dog, but he refused it.”
Khoi plans to keep the rescued canines at his home for about seven days so that their owners can come and take them home, afterward he will take the remaining dogs to a local animal rescue shelter.
“People who wish to find their lost dogs can come to my house at 30D Dong Nai Street in Phuoc Hai Ward, Nha Trang City, or call 0909473361,” Khoi said.
As of Thursday, Khoi and his family have yet to find their own lost pets.
She Used to Cry a Lot After Enduring a Lot of Pain BUT Now She Truly The Pride of Her Family.
Amber has arrived! This morning, a kind soul saw her in a ditch in Lancaster County, South Carolina, a gray beauty torn apart by hideous brutality. Amber’s face was a terrible mess of bruises, infected beyond measure, necessitating quick reconstructive surgery.
Her nasal canal was torn as a result of the cruelty she was subjected to, leaving her gasping for air. Her suffering was compounded by a broken jaw and displaced teeth, and her once perfect nose was now torn apart. Due to the severity of her injuries, the medical team had to sedate her to perform a CT scan, which was unprecedented in their experience.
Amber, who was just two years old, had her whole life ahead of her despite her small body and severe malnutrition. She was sedated daily for nearly five days as committed specialists worked tirelessly to give her a new lease on life. Amber’s face has been repaired and her nasal passages cleared as a result of their steadfast commitment, but the swelling serves as a reminder of her grief.
Her beautiful demeanor was unaffected, a monument to her fortitude in the face of tragedy. Amber showed tremendous courage and love as she healed and faced the hardships of heartworm treatment and sterilization.
She relaxed after a filling lunch and finally cuddled into her blanket for a restful night’s sleep. Today, she went for a walk in her new neighborhood under the warm sunshine with her new siblings, Jack and Alice, clear evidence that she has found comfort and security in her new home.
Amber would like to express her deep gratitude to all of her amazing friends who supported her journey, thought of her as she embarked on her path to a better life, and loved her unconditionally.
Ember’s adventure can be followed on Instagram.
