Rich Adams, better known as Rich the Vegan, is taking his push scooter from ocean to ocean as part of his Kathy91裸聊视频檚 Tail 2019 campaign.

The campaign aims to bring awareness to the dog meat trade, particularly in South Korea, and is named after a dog that died in Canada after being rescued from South Korea by Adams.

91裸聊视频淚 brought some of the dogs to live with me, and one of them was called Kathy. She was probably in the worst condition out of all the dogs. She was in a cage, essentially left to rot. There was no roof on the cage, she was exposed to the sun, and the heat, and the rain,91裸聊视频� said Adams. 91裸聊视频淗er eyes were bleeding, she was in very bad condition. We got her healthy, she was living with me, we were lining up adopters for her, and then all of a sudden she took ill, and unfortunately, died in my arms.91裸聊视频�

Kathy91裸聊视频檚 Tail started in April this year, as a means to make her life matter, and to share Kathy and other dogs91裸聊视频� plight with the people of Canada. The ride started with Adams dipping the rear wheel of his scooter in the Atlantic Ocean before beginning his journey west. This is the second scooter campaign that Adams has run, after last year when he used a child91裸聊视频檚 scooter to cross South Korea and start the discussion there.

It was during his trip across South Korea that he transitioned from bringing awareness about the dog meat trade to also rescuing some of the dogs. It was during this campaign that he met a local activist, Jenny Kim, who helped him to rescue a number of dogs, including Kathy.

91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檝e rescued 14 dogs myself, and I91裸聊视频檓 in the process of rescuing another right now. Jenny has rescued hundreds,91裸聊视频� said Adams. 91裸聊视频淥ne of the things I try and live by is if you can save one life, just one life, you91裸聊视频檝e altered destiny for that living being. And that is priceless.91裸聊视频�

Throughout his journey, Adams has been greeted warmly by Canadians. Where he hasn91裸聊视频檛 camped, he has been able to stay at motels, or with people who have heard of him and Kathy91裸聊视频檚 story and have opened up their homes for the night. Once he91裸聊视频檚 finished, which Adams currently hopes to be on July 26, he said that he is already thinking about going across another country next year.

91裸聊视频淎 small country,91裸聊视频� Adams said with a laugh. 91裸聊视频淚91裸聊视频檝e hiked across England coast to coast, but never scooted. So maybe England next year.91裸聊视频�
