Mork, a dog with a challenging start in China, was once on a path that would lead him to the meat trade. Fortunately, his fate took a dramatic turn when Harbin SHS intervened, rescuing him from a meat truck. In a critically weak state, Mork was swiftly taken to an emergency animal hospital, where he was saved from the verge of death. Following his recovery, Mork was transported to the U.S. and found a new home with the founder of Road Dogs and Rescue, the organization that played a key role in his rescue.
Despite his harrowing beginnings that led him to a new life, Mork battles ongoing health issues attributed to poor breeding. Nonetheless, these challenges haven’t dampened his spirits. He is known for his sweet demeanor and friendliness, finding joy in playing with other dogs and basking in the sunlight.
Mork’s exact breed remains a mystery, but he’s often noted for his resemblance to the popular character Baby Yoda. His human has decided against conducting DNA testing to determine his breed, concerned that it might inspire others to intentionally breed dogs similar to Mork, disregarding the potential health implications. This decision highlights a commitment to Mork’s well-being and a stance against breeding practices that prioritize appearance over health.
We are thrilled that Mork was rescued in time and is now living is best life. Dogs deserve to be spoiled and loved. Thank you, Harbin SHS, for taking a stance against the meat trade and saving as many dogs as possible! To fall in love with Mork just like we did and (his squishy pancake face), play the video below.
