Chester with his new family
I adopted my wonderful 4-year-old mixed-breed dog, Chester, through CICO – Uganda, a dedicated Chinese rescue service. Wendy responded quickly when I reached out, and within a week, we had completed the steps of the adoption process. Chester had a rough beginning to his life as bait for a dog meat festival, but through the wonderful care that Chester received, he is now a healthy, trusting, and friendly dog. I couldn’t have asked for a better companion. He enjoys raw food and walks three times a day with me and cuddles for hours each night. Thanks to the rescue efforts, medical treatment, fostering, fundraising and volunteer work that Wendy and the team at CICO – Uganda have done to rehabilitate animals, Chester is now living his best life in Toronto. I would highly recommend CICO – Uganda if you want to foster or adopt dogs and cats, or support a worthy animal cause with a donation.
Fondly
Lisa and Chester
