Happy 1st Barkday Rusty boy! 🤍
You had so much fun surrounded by your best furiends today! You were over the moon when you saw your very first Muttcake and you enjoyed every bit of it (and came back for seconds… and thirds… 😋)
You’ve grown so much over the months and we’re so proud of how far you’ve come! 🤍

No matter how hard the day has been, seeing Ah Boy’s face light up as he wags his tail in anticipation of going for a walk together, always brings a smile to our hearts.
The humans in Ah Boy’s past have done him so much wrong. Kudos to CDAS for never giving up on him!

Ah Boy, a dog who had been chained for many years, faced countless challenges. Misunderstood, shunned, and mishandled by those at the workshop, he struggled to navigate his new reality.
Initially tethered at the workshop, the staff soon realized they couldn’t manage him and decided to let him roam freely. By a stroke of luck, Ah Boy began to enjoy his newfound freedom, but it came at a price.
During his one year at the workshop, Ah Boy bit the staff due to food aggression. He instilled fear in those around him by approaching them to sniff or chase passing cyclists.
Consequently, he lived in a constant state of anxiety, often chased away during the day and only allowed to return at night. The only kindness he received came from a dedicated feeder who brought him food every day without fail.
Unfortunately, Ah Boy’s freedom faced a dire threat when another workshop owner bluntly declared, “I don’t care if AVS puts him down. You want to save him? Tie him up.” Such comments reflect a troubling attitude among many people, who choose the easiest, most convenient solutions for their own protection, often disregarding the well-being of animals. This mentality is perpetuated by existing laws that fail to protect dogs like Ah Boy.
Tragically, Ah Boy is now suffering from late-stage cancer, and his days are numbered. Despite this, we hope to show him kindness and humanity in his remaining time.
His new environment (home boarding and food sponsored by three generous donors), coupled with behavior modification from @kaizen4dogs , has greatly changed his emotional state. If you would like to support our efforts to help Ah Boy and others like him, ple
