TORONTO — A mixed\u002Dbreed street dog named Papo chased toys and rolled around in the sun on a recent clear day at an east Toronto dog sanctuary.
It’s a change of pace for Papo after a long journey from Taliban-controlled Afghanistan to Canada, where she arrived last month along with 10 other dogs who were evacuated from the country by the animal welfare group No Dogs Left Behind.
“I hope that they get the love and attention that they so well deserve,” Beri said of the Afghan dogs’ new lives in Canada. When dogs first arrive to the No Dogs Left Behind safehouse, Beri said they’re often traumatized and must begin a process of rehabilitation to trust humans again. It was a complicated journey for the animals. After the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention banned the importation of dogs to the U.S. from countries it considers to be high risk for dog rabies, including Afghanistan,Beri said it became more difficult for the dogs to be brought to safety.Article content
