The above pictures show Taiwanese Chen Wen-mei, a 44-year-old Buddhist follower with a few of over 300 dogs she looks after at her volunteer shelter in Taipei county, Taiwan, Wednesday, Oct. 29, 2008. Chen has seen a sharp increase in abandoned dogs being brought to her shelter over the last few months. Coinciding with the local stock market plunge and a jump in the jobless rate in Taiwan, local animal rescuers say more and more dogs are being abandoned as owners look for ways to cut expenses.

The lady is having problems with finding enough money to feed the pooches under her care. Hopefully, there are people who would donate money to help this angel keep the shelter running. I am glad to read that there are people who care enough to help these poor helpless creatures.
