We hope that her detailed explanation will dispel any damage caused by this unnecessary fear-mongering and let FFF move on to achieve great success in the same way other Dr Dog programmes have done in many other countries.

It was unfortunate that some peoples names were misrepresented and taken out of context. These expatriates are known to many of us as unbiased dog caring and great animal welfare people. Not supporting any ONE GROUP but all dogs nd cats in Kuala Lumpur. Perhaps you should try to contact them. They would like to contact you and make PEACE.
