Walks are an important opportunity for mental rehabilitation.
I feel relieved to see these dogs running happily up to me.
The dogs are being spayed, but their wombs and ovaries have been seriously damaged.
Some had rotten amniotic fluid due to their wombs bursting.

One dog was suspected of having a congenital umbilical hernia, but it soon became clear that her condition was actually due to poor suturing following a Caesarean operation.
The vet says she must have been in severe pain.
Other dogs may also have some serious physical problems even though they seem fine.
Prompt action is needed, but clinic staff members have been feeling the pressure because other ARK animals also need to be treated.

Dental work is also being done when the dogs are spayed because some had tartar and gum disease due to being forced to give birth too many times.
Thank you to the person who kindly donated the dental procedure kit.
Now animals can receive dental treatment at ARK instead of having the stress of being taken outside ARK to go to the dentist. This boosts their quality of life.
We would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation.

We'd like to express our appreciation to all the people who donated money to help us with this large-scale rescue.
Thank you so much for your help.
Thanks to all of you, some of the dogs have already found new families and left ARK.
The dogs who have yet to be posted on the website are being prepared for rehoming.
If anyone is interested in adopting one of these dogs, please come and visit ARK!
