Our Mission

Fight Dog Meat is a Registered Charity 501c3 saving some of the most injured dogs and cats in the meat trade. We have them in hospital for months, followed by rehab. We then find amazing safe homes for them to be adopted into, abroad and locally. We’re working to help bring animal protection laws and make the world a kinder place for animals.

FDM DOGGIE RANCH IN SAIGON

Our Doggie Ranch provides doggie daycare and boarding for client’s dogs. Its also the place for our small number of rescue dogs to begin new lives. They learn to laugh again as we prepare them for adoption.

Our Doggie Ranch provides a warm family environment for doggies to have fun and feel safe. Our Team are passionate animal lovers who take great pride in their work. There are no kennels or cages. Dogs sleep in the same rooms as our team; providing 24/7 supervision. Located in Saigon, it’s the happy land for dogs in Vietnam.
