Catherine S. ChanGUEST

Catherine S. ChanGUEST
It came to life in 1903 and it was dormant as soon as it came to shape because many people were not interested.
Catherine S. ChanGUEST
But then in the 1920s, it restarted and from there on it took off.
Catherine S. ChanGUEST
But what made the SPCA successful the second time around was the idea of Britishness.
Catherine S. ChanGUEST
So the SPCA's members were mostly foreigners.
Catherine S. ChanGUEST
They were officials of the Hong Kong colonial government.

Little dogs or designer dogs of like huskies and things like that, that look gorgeous, but when people realize how much work they are, they end up in shelters.
Victoria StilwellGUEST
So I went over there with Hong Kong SPCA, but also with Hong Kong Dog Rescue, and saw how things were done out there, and it was very much that these dogs were babies.
Victoria StilwellGUEST
They were babies.
Victoria StilwellGUEST
And dogs wore booties all the time.
