My husband's birthday today but he went out really early today to rescue dogs bound for slaughter in Cavite. Just awhile ago, he texted me that the last dogs they rescued bit him. Right now, he is in the hospital to get an anti rabies vaccine just to be sure he'll be safe.I just hope he'll be ok....

It is really sorry state of affairs that your husband was bitten by a four legged creature, whom he wanted to rescue. Hope he gets well soon. Wish him speedy recovery.

Hi, dear. It is a pleasant surprise to hear from you again. :) Well, it is his job to rescue them from being butchered. And it is expected that an accident like this will most likely to occur.Nevertheless, he is protected. He got a shots of anti rabies before totally sinking to this type or rescuing job. Moreover, his wounds were not that deep. He assured me that there's nothing to worry about. I'm relieved to hear that though.:)

Hi, Neil.:) I was scared for his life at first when he texted me he was at the hospital getting an anti rabies shot. I was only able to relax when I saw it was just a scratch.:) But he is not taking chances, he will be getting a follow up shots next week. Yup, not a good way to celebrate his birthday but he's got to do his job for the sake of those hapless friends.:)

It was an accident and the canine was scared as hell. It was bound for slaughter together with 79 other dogs... You can just imagine the fear that triggers such violent reaction from the poor thing... My husband is doing ok. It was just a scratch...He spent his birthday with those four legged friends and He did have a time of his life, literally, this time.:)

Happy birthday to your hubby! ^_^ Not a nice present though. I wish nothing won't happen to him. He did something good anyway. Where exactly in Cavite? This is saddening. In my grandmother's place in Imus, Cavite. Dogs are not allowed in the streets. I don't know what they do with the dogs wondering around. But I hope they're not slaughtered.

Thanks for the greetings in his behalf, Trishsantos.:) It was just a scratch and he was injected by anti rabies before he went home. Another shots will be given sometime next week. The operation was in Silang Cavite. They rescued 80 dogs in all but they were not able to capture the traders...They escaped...

I don't really know what Cavite is, but sounds like a good man if he is rescuing dogs bound for slaughter to anywhere. He'll be safe.

Thank you, Sjlskl, in behalf of my husband. :) He can not take it against the poor thing, it was scared. His kennel mate was also bitten. My husband's wound isn't that deep. I was relieved to see it was just a scratch.:) They rescued 80 slaughter bound dogs.
