Tens of Thousands of Dogs Die Each Year During China’s Dog Meat Festivals. This Is Our Chance To End The Slaughter!
John,
The yearly Yulin Dog Meat Festival is responsible for the slaughter of tens of thousands of dogs each year. Now, we have a chance to end it once and for all.
Two Chinese governing bodies plan to introduce new legislation that will provide special protections to canines by classifying them as companion animals. This would exclude dogs from being used for human consumption.
If you are unfamiliar with the festival, it is notorious for its bloodshed and cruelty. Because dog meat consumers believe that the meat tastes better when dogs have more adrenaline in their blood, dog meat butchers torture the animals. Dogs are beaten, burned alive with blowtorches, or tossed into pots of boiling water.
Thanks to public outcry, the festival’s popularity has decreased and restrictions have been set, however, that hasn’t been enough to end the festival for good. Now’s our chance.
Thank you,
Ashley A.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you!
Thanks for raising awareness and the link. This is so brutal and horrible
This event just swept under the radar screen for most…is cheap trade/goods so important and necessary that people will stick their heads in the sand over such inhumane treatment?

Well in fairness it was John who sent me the email that I turned into today’s post. But that doesn’t diminish one iota the importance of trying to shut down this hideous, disgusting practice. Thank you for your reply.
