“John Hughes
The Dogs Mountain Founder and
Philanthropist 1955-2014.”
John Hughes in Sanctuaries
In 2006 he established Dogs Mountain to support, to empower the noble,
life-saving efforts of animal rescue, and to fund. He brought the land and
built a sanctuary from scratch to house and care for the rescue dogs, cats and goats!
He has a Shelter in Bangkok, Thailand with he’s 60 rescue dogs. He called
“Green House” with 3 caregiver who look after his rescue dogs while he’s in UK or Philippines. He’s concern is not end there.
Beyond sanctuary, John (aka the Voice of Stray Dogs) has a 33 year
background as an independent animal advocate. John has been running
campaigns to highlight the horror of the “ Dog Meat Trade” in China, Korea,
Thailand, Vietnam, and his own base in the Philippines, in London in 2010
John has been campaign for “Kerala- India Kill Dogs for Tourism” he is aware of what is happening in Kerala since other South East Asia countries use the very same methods in many other popular beach resort and town where is tourist destination and streets and beaches are “Cleaned” of any stray animals using very cruel methods, in order that everything looks neat and tidy for when the tourist arrived. Needless to say, “John is a strong advocate of humane capture spay, neuter and release”.
