The Humane Society International is responsible for saving the dogs that would otherwise have been slaughtered. Humane Society officials say they awaited death in dirty, dark cages, and were fed barely enough to survive. The farm was in Goyang, South Korea.

In the United States, the dogs will be available for adoption. But first, the shelters plan to make sure each one is ready for a new life in someone’s home.
The Humane Society has helped save more than 800 South Korean dogs on farms since 2015.
