US Olympian, Gus Kenworthy, has become even more of a hero in my eyes because not only did he do amazing representing us at the Olympics but he also rescued 90 dogs from a Korean dog meat farm!
Kenworthy competed in the freestyle skiing for Team USA and was one of the first openly gay athlete in the South Korea games. Him and his boyfriend, Matthew Wilkas, worked together to rescue the 90 dogs and even were able to permanently shut down the farm's operations.
This mission of Kenworthy and Wilka's dog rescue efforts has been to draw awareness to the dog meat trade in Asian countries.
Humane Society International are setting up the adoptions in US and Canada for the dogs so maybe there is just a chance we could get one!
