On October 23, 2011, KARA's medical team and other volunteers visited the Asan Shelter in Chungnam Province.

This shelter has 600 dogs! Look at them all ...

With space running out, the shelter plans to move to a new place next year.

The dogs received the usual feeding, shaving and cleaning from volunteers.

While other volunteers cleaned up, the medical team got to work spaying and neutering the residents.

Here's the vet at the neutering station.

Here are some of Asan Shelter's guests, watching all the activity.

A few dogs had medical problems that needed attention.

While being shaved, this guy had a seizure and had to be transferred to a clinic immediately. The vet thought that he wouldn't recover from the seizure, but when last checked he is showing signs of recovery.

This schnauzer suffered from a broken leg for a long time, which made it untreatable. After being checked by the veterinary surgeon, he was operated on to remove his bad leg. He is in the process of recovery.

This white dog had an eye hemorrhage. He was transferred to the clinic for further examination and treatment.

This dog is also under medical treatment due to the bad cough. He is in a good health otherwise therefore we are expecting a quick recovery.

After treatment, all of these dogs will go back to the shelter. But we are always on the look out for temporary or permanent homes for all shelter dogs.

Please contact us for further information on how you can help with fostering or providing a good home.

Thanks again for a great job from the KARA medical team and shelter volunteers!
