China's Dog Eating festival

Starts today .
Horrendously cruel practice in China .
Goes ahead despite petition of 11 million .
Dogs are eaten all over China
Lots of these dogs are stolen pets and the treatment and method of despatch is appalling .
I used to think that the Chinese actually lacked the genes for kindness to animals but it it seems there are many locals trying to stop this barbaric custom .
Dogs are also eaten on Korea and other parts of the East .

Re: China's Dog Eating festival

What gets to me is why should it be a festival?. And yes from what I have seen it is barbaric. But I eat meat so cannot pretend to be squeaky clean. I eat beef and yet cannot abide bull fighting.

Re: China's Dog Eating festival

I would love to go to China but don't because of this practice. I can only think it is part of their culture and think nothing of it while we think it is just barbaric.
