After the storm: The rebirth of Minxiong Animal Refuge

In April, a large number of stray dogs died in a shocking incident that occurred at Chiayi County’s Minxiong Animal Refuge. A shortage of human resources, poor environmental hygiene and inadequate equipment at the refuge combined to cause this sad incident. Over the last six months, the new supervisor and staff at the refuge have been trying to make positive changes by improving hygiene and establishing a set of epidemic prevention procedures aimed at increasing the chance of adoption for the resident stray dogs. The refuge has also begun making dog cards, which provide visitors with some background information on each dog. At the same time, outside donations from the public have begun to arrive at the refuge and an application has been made to the government for a site expansion that would help to create a more comfortable living environment.

風雨過後 民雄收容所的重生

今年四月，嘉義縣民雄收容所發生震驚各界的悶死流浪狗事件。民雄收容所人力短缺、環境惡劣、所內設備不齊全等問題，也因此事件曝光。新任主管以及所方人員在這半年試著做出改變，改善衛生環境並且建立標準防疫程序，希望藉此能增加所內流浪犬的領養機會。所內也開始幫狗兒製作狗卡，讓大家更容易辨識牠們的身分。同時外界的資源開始進入民收，所內更向政府申請土地擴建，要給牠們一個更舒適的環境。
