Chester's Story
By James Aleko | Project Director

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

Dog Lovers United

Hello *****
I dearly want to thankyou on behalf of the communities we support and the entire colleauges of staff at the bottom of our hearts for your support and love in walking with us a big milestone in 2023.
Absolutely none of the above would be possible without the support of everybody here on this newsletter and online in general. The picture below is of some of the things I’ve been sent recently from kind people around the world. As I always say I am just the lucky one who gets to do this out front and I get way too much credit as it is genuinely a community of dog lovers. If ever I need motivation I never need to look far to see how kind people are.
I feel like so many dog lovers would love to drop everything and help the mission. As that is unrealistic so many of you find other ways to chip in and follow along. Thats the key part of the success to date in my opinion. I can’t explain what that support means to me as I ride around on the moped every morning feeding the dogs. It does come with pressure as I don’t want to let people down and I want to move as fast as possible to help as many dogs as we can. That support is never taken for granted.

Thank you for your heart of rescue
By James Aleko | Project Director
20 dogs and cats recently rescued from the local animal shelter shows some wear and tear as a result of being on the streets awhile. Our staff through our animal project picked them up. The officer took them to the Animal Shelter. After evaluation, it was determined that they didn’t have an injury but he was suffering from an upper respiratory infection. Once it was determined that the they were healthy, and after they put on a little weight, they were neutered and vaccinated.
After the Animal Shelter reached out to area cat rescues, New Beginnings Cats and Dogs Rescue was able to quickly rescue Pip who is now with a foster family and will soon be available for adoption.
To all the people that support New Beginnings Cats and Dogs Rescue, by donating, fostering and adopting, remember you are the heart and soul of the rescue. Thank you for your continued support.
