Friend,

On Monday, we struck again.

Our team launched another joint raid with the Philippine National Police and we rescued a dog moments before slaughter.

But Friend, what we found inside will stay with me forever.

One of the dogs had already been blowtorched. His head had been smashed open. He was being prepared for consumption like he was worthless.

And then… we found him.

A dog I've called Levi.

Levi was bound by his neck, his muzzle, and his legs. His legs were tied so tightly that we had to cut them free. He was stuffed into a canvas sack, struggling to breathe, completely helpless.

Honestly, Friend? The suspect didn’t care if Levi died inside that sack.

Because in just a few more moments, Levi would have been smashed over the head and killed so humans could eat him.

It’s disgusting. It’s barbaric. And it’s still happening right now.

But Levi survived because we got there in time.

These raids matter. They save lives. And they send shockwaves through a dog meat trade that is already weak and dying under pressure by AWIP raids.

Now we need your voice again, Friend.

A single operation isn’t enough. We need a nationwide crackdown on dog meat traders and slaughterhouses so dogs like Levi are never tortured like this again.

Will you add your name to call for a national crackdown on the dog meat trade in the Philippines, Friend?
 
The truth is this:

Every time we strike, traders panic.

Every operation exposes another weak point in their chain.

They are losing control. They are making mistakes.

And enforcement, with strong backing from animal defenders like you, is pushing them to the edge.

Levi’s rescue is proof of what pressure can do.

But without a national crackdown, thousands more dogs will face the same horror: bound, beaten, blowtorched, slaughtered.

Your voice matters right now, more than ever.

Will you add your name and demand a nationwide crackdown to shut down dog meat traffickers across the Philippines?

Thank you for standing with me, Friend.

Like you, I'm not stopping until every dog like Levi is rescued from these hellholes.

For all animals,

Jacob Lloyd
