In the charity's own words
Candy Cane Rescue aims to provide a safe environment in which greyhounds and other breeds rescued from China and from other regions with no/poor welfare laws can be cared for. After rescue, the dogs are brought to local vets and when their health allows they travel to the UK/US to their forever, loving homes.
