Suddenly, a man with grey hair approached the gate. Rung quickly greeted the man in their local language and the man laughed carefreely as he unlocked the gates for us and welcomed us in. Ace and I both smiled at the man in greeting before we were led inside. There was a small unkept yard between the gate and the main building. The place seemed to resemble more of a single-story warehouse than a building and it was clear that that was where the dogs were being kept.
