a: Rescued

This middle aged gentleman was abandoned by his owner who had him delivered to our founder, Du Yufeng's house. When he spoke to her he told her that the dog had been used as a stud dog since he was 1 years old, breeding non stop. He also mentioned that if she didn't take him, he would have him sent to the butcher! The stress of being kept in a kennel until he was needed to mate with a female must have been very stressful for him and as a result he has had a persistent skin disease on his legs. When the volunteers gave him a bath it took 3 shampoos until the water ran clear because he was so filthy! Du gave him the name Mao Mao.
