An innocent dog's life has been saved thanks to a group of animal activities fighting to end the brutal dog meat trade in China.
The white Akita, named Lucky by rescuers, was found chained up outside a meat shop in Yulin, Guangxi province, with a 'dog meat for sale' sign in front of him.
He was the "last living dog of the day to be scheduled for slaughter", before the activists persuaded the shop keeper to give him up.
