Despite worldwide outcry and repeated efforts by animal activists to put an end to the Yulin Dog Eating Festival, a yearly tradition in Yulin, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region of China, the festival, deeply rooted in ancient Chinese tradition, will begin June 21, 2015.
Yulin residents cherish the annual summer solstice celebration, which involves the mass torture, slaughter, and consumption of about 10,000 dogs.
The Guardian, a UK-based news source said in an article,
Animal rights groups say 10,000 dogs are slaughtered during the festival each year, and that many are electrocuted, burned and skinned alive. Pictures posted online show flayed dogs, dogs hanging from meat hooks, and piles of dog corpses on the side of the road. In China dog meat is prized as a nutritious wintertime dish that doctors can prescribe to treat maladies such as impotence and poor circulation.
In addition to protests against the tradition of eating an animal that is cherished, even in China, as a family pet and companion, critics claim that the dogs are illegally obtained, usually stolen family pets or picked up as strays. And, because these dogs are not raised in farms and are questionably sourced, there are no quarantine systems in place to monitor the health of the animals, thereby raising additional concerns of safety to Yulin residents that partake in the festival.
According to an open letter by the Hong Kong-based NGO Animals Asia, many of the dogs consumed during the festival are strays and abductees. Some are transported to the city on filthy, overcrowded trucks, significantly increasing the risk that they carry rabies and other contagious diseases.
Efforts by activists to put a stop to the festival, including writing letters to the Yulin government, recruiting celebrities to openly condemn the acts, and even petitioning the Obama Administration to step in, have upset the Yulin locals.
27-year old Wei Huan, from Guilin told the China Daily Newspaper, “Why do we have to follow their (the protesters’) likes and dislikes?” She said that she grew up eating the dog-meat meal which is served with lychees and strong grain liquor, and considers it to be “the tastiest dish.”
Although the festival has not been cancelled, Yulin authorities have promised to tighten sanitation inspections and crack down on dog slaughtering in public during this year’s festival as a result of the protests. Currently there are no animal welfare laws in mainland China, but the selling of dog meat requires some level of regulation, though it’s commonly understood that these regulations are rarely enforced.
So, what can be done? While efforts to end the ancient dog-eating tradition have been largely unsuccessful, continuing to protest and express outrage, at the very least for the way the dogs are acquired and for the lack of health and safety regulations, may eventually work.
In 2011, a similar festival in the Zhejiang province of China was cancelled due to public outcry and a massive internet petition.

These people are as sick minded as ISIS and nobody says they shouldn't be dealt with. These depraved specimens make the human race look like biological vomit. If this is humanity then we are vile. I'm certain some idiots would try to rationally philosophically that it would be ok to skin, boil alive and eat babies if they could convince themselves it had a deep spiritual meaning with an age old custom.

this is quite accurately the most vile, barbaric, cruel practice of torturing animals i have ever seen. what kinds of people do this? WHY? WHY? WHY? has all the humanity
escaped this people? let's put them in a vat of boiling oil or water? (practiced by the way in the United Kingdom of Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth. I don't understand is and., thankfully, i will NEVER comprehend it because those who do are MONSTERS!!!! nothing less. many holy scriptures and philosophies instruct us to turn the other cheek. i would not be able to but that's because i am a sinner and imperfect. the people who participate in this ritual have a special place waiting for them. i have to believe that. i don't think even God could even believe that this kind of cruelty was possible. God help them and pray and raise awareness and raise money so we can stop this kind of barbarianism. may god bless him with his grace and take away their pain.

Why don't you go to Yulin and have some of this shit done to you and see how it feels. Maybe there would be one less asshole like you on the planet. You must have had wonderful parents. I give them props for raising such an idiot.

whenever these people get sick, lonely or just go hungry, they should remember which animal they hurt. because dogs and cats don’t know any better than to love people no matter how mean and cruel people could be to them. i hope that every person who hurts an animal would die in the same way.

According to several papers written on this subject, it seems that there is a lack of sanitary conditions in this festival. The danger of catching a disease is very high.
Do not you understand? Let them do it. These stupid and ignorant chinease will die by themselves. One day they will understand that what they do will lead them to their doom. It’s in this way that this barbaric practice will stop.

Eating them. Well, as with eating any animal it is a balance between human wants, needs? and the wants needs of the animal. BUT THERE DOESN’T NEED TO BE CRUELTY. THE BEASTS ARE INNOCENT. KILL THEM, IF YOU HAVE TO, IN A WAY THAT DOESN’T FRIGHTEN THEM OR HURT THEM MORE THAN IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. SHOOT THEM IN THE HEAD, OR SUT THEIR CAROTID. China and other countries that enjoy torture on such a scale must have more cruel evil sadists than any civilized county in the world.

I don’t care if they eat dogs and cats…..I eat cow,chicken,fish and so on…..it’s not about the eating of animals. It’s about burning them alive with a blowtorch or stunning them and then skinning them alive.
The 10000 animals and most of the tortured to death for a festival!!!
I understand that most Chinese are not like this but honestly the rest of China needs to step up and tell thies monsters that it is not ok to do this…..shoot the poor dog in the skull first or even a heart puncture would be faster and far more reasonable than trying to inflict as much pain as possible…….it’s no wonder they have a stigma about them…..I mean just look at the hundreds of examples that can be easily found on the Web. …or stories from Chinese that you may know

This is utterly and completely disgusting.

People who are involved in this have NO SOUL and hopefully will meet with their maker all to soon. OR…now that I think of it they probably won’t meet with their maker…they are going down south if you know what I mean. HEARTLESS and DISGUSTING!!!

This is where my faith in God waivers. Why does he let this happen! I still have to have faith that good will overcome evil in this world. I have to believe that people who do this to these animals will pay heavily for their sins. They are uneducated, stoic, moronic, heartless, cowardly cockroaches that remind the compassionate beings of this world why we are who we are. They are cowards and they will go to their grave as repulsive cowards. You’re the farthest thing from tough when you gag and bind an innocent animal and torture it. You are swine sent to earth from hell and you will return there for the terror and torture you inflicted…..and so will those in charge who could have stopped it but turned their heads and did NOTHING!

These fu..ing Chinese savages beyond belief, who are nothing more than a “freak of nature” as a race, should have the same done to them!! How fu..ing EVIL can this RACE be!!! Heartless, empty, black souls who deserve the worst in their disgusting lives and CHINESE world/country. I wouldn’t lift a finger for any of them anywhere!!! And, those of you who frequent chinese restaurants in the USA deserve it when you are very possibly eating the same tortured flesh on your plates!!! Is there no god?? NO, but we think there IS KARMA!!

These people that participate and prepare for this event should be tortured and killed them selves or maybe they should watch a loved one go through a horrifying event in Yuglin. NO ONE should have to die like this. My heart goes out to the beautiful animals that have been through this event. R.I.P.

I hope the meat makes them sick and they die a slow horrific death, which in my mind still would not be justice for their actions. Maybe we can unleash giant predators loose or these murders and let these people be lunch! This has to be stopped, we must do something about this.I feel just like all of you and it’s beyond disturbing and disgusting! Pray for these lost souls without a voice, that the torture will stop. I know I will be praying for these little innocent babies for the next ten days that this horrible event takes place.

Amazing new update from Marc Ching (The Animal Hope & Wellness) who is in Yulin working nonstop since yesterday on shutting down as many slaughterhouses as he can: We have shut down six slaughterhouses, have five pending, and are on our way to visit a dozen more. To those that thought it was impossible – it is becoming possible. For people who cried and screamed into the night, hope remains. The reality of shutting down a festival where 10,000 dogs die, is that you have thousands of lives that need rescue. We cannot do this alone. I have till tomorrow to save the lives that need saving. The world wanted the festival to end, and we are here trying to end it.This is the time. Do not desert the cause you asked the world to defend. Do not leave us here by ourselves. Do not abandon the mission. Note: For those that want to help rescue these dogs and shutdown Yulin, please donate. animalhopeandwellness.org/donate/ “My foundation is too small to handle the rescue effort alone. So far we have four confirmed shutdowns. With three slaughterhouses pending, and are on our way to the next facility. There will be over a thousand dogs. A thousand lives that need help to find haven. I do not know where to go. I do not know how to find the help we need for the effort.” Note: There are well over four hundred dogs in this one facility. If you want to help support the shutdown, please donate. Spread the good news and stand with Marc in fighting this cause.

Everyone talks nowadays how Islamic is bad cruel religion and so on , but no one knows probably here that a prostitute was forgiven all her sins and admitted to paradise for her kindness to dog
.Dogs are not animals created to be eaten, they are pets who are loyal till the death to humans who kind to them .” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah had once forgiven a prostitute. She passed by a dog panting near a well. Seeing that thirst had nearly killed him, she took off her shoe, tied it to her scarf, and drew up some water. Allah forgave her all sins for that.”.in another narration woman was admitted to hell for not feeding cat and causing it to die .In Islam; kindness and cruelty towards dogs and cats will be your key to either heaven or hell

What kind of people are those who.can gladly torture a dog or cat in such a horrific way. They must love to watch the animals screaming in agony. How can they sleep at night after being part of it all? Stuff the festival and stuff the people responsible for being part of the whole disgusting practice.

This just shows how detached we are as a race to what is really important, preservation of nature and all that is in it, just because this has been going on for hundreds of years does not make it right, if an animal is killed then it should always be done so ethically and with respect. We should all remember thateating animals for food historically would mean live or die, this is still the case today in some areas of the world, but we have such a variety of different foods available in today’s world we need to all think about the preservation of nature and all eat less meat as a whole, let alone kill animals for sport or tradition, the Cinese government should change their ways and put a stop to it!

Too bad we can not just take them out! We are a strong country and we can change this by black listing this freakass country once and for all- and just drop a nice big bomb on them. It is uncomprehensible to see how they can do what they are doing to innocent gifts from God that they steal, cheat and lie just for the pleasure of a meal and money! No life of anything is worth this and as far as I am concerned. I hope they all know someday what it is like to suffer like they have made these precious babies suffer. China is filled with The most selfish freaks! And we best realize as Americans that we are not having this crap. No more dealings with them and boycott all their products. They are nothing without our support and to Hell with them all! To torture a innocent little animal that can’t defend itself is a crime against humanity and a crime against God! They enjoy hurting them and they are thrilled that the World hates them for it!

You know they talk about the health risks of these people because they don’t know if the animals have rabies or if they’ve been quarantined or not but honestly these people that are eating these animals I hope that they do get very sick that’s the least that they deserve for doing this to these animals if they get sick they deserve it.

What they are really doing is creating a festival to parade their weakness as real men . Dog meat for impotence after all….. Why is it in these countries where men can hurt the weak that they feel Inflated Egos- slave camps, -prostituting their children -raping torturing women, preying on the weak and helpless who can’t fight back. How could anyone feel some sort of pride in that. Its pathetic. The day will come when they will be on their knees before God who they won’t even be able to look in the eye, and be pronounced their own torture for eternity. Savages with no heart or soul. Disgraceful and the epitome of Evil !!

I never knew. I can say this as it is true, I never knew. Some ppl do not know that abortion is gruesome and the killing of a baby. My point is in a society that cannot respect HUMANS , how are they suppose to respect animals? Knowing that the above has been going on for hundreds of years, and just finding out now, as well as it will happen again at the end of this summer is horrific. I have lost all hope for humanity.

I cannot get it in my head….I would hope that anyone that participates in this will burn in hell and feel it for an eternity

Torture should never be part of any culture. these human-beings are acting like demons. This is appalling. There are many other beautiful traditions a country can celebrate that doesn’t involved boiling a dog while alive or skinning it or burning it alive or killing it for entertainment.

People through the ages and right up to current day have performed the most barbaric, cruel torture of animals of all breeds and sizes in the name of ‘culture’ and ‘religion’! It does not make it any less barbaric or evil. I bet all these barbarians don’t do many other things that is in their ‘culture’ or religion because it doesn;t suit them – like stealing, killing each other, raping and and and! Torturing an animal to death because it ‘tastes’ better is utter bullshit! If anything I would think the fear and panic would toughened the animal’s meat. This has to be stopped but of course, most people are just apathetic – if it doesn’t affect them directly or because they are ‘just animals’ they look the other way. ANIMAL LIVES MATTER. STOP THE KILLING!!!!!

We all need to leave all animals off our plates and keep there secretions out of our cups, coffee and tea. Not strictly for the animals but for the planet and our own health as well. Try to see the depth of our hypocrisy when we criticize a culture for eating dog whilst we 8/9 ounces of meat a day per person. It’s time humanity stop eating meat dairy and eggs. Go vegan!! For the animals, planet, and each other.

this is inhuman. the way that they kill them is horrible, yeah it would be better if they would kill them quickly not bash them, drown, burn or what ever. eating a dog is no different than eating a cow but they are made to be a companion and they were made to help the blind or to help the police. they were not made to be killed slowly and tortured just for the fun of it. why this festival is dumb, it may be apart of your culture but it is not necessary to torture the dogs and cats.

Personally I don’t see much difference between eating cats or rabbits. People eat veal and babe pigs etc. All this is wrong.
As for the traditional element of this dog-eating-party-for-brainless-peasants, it is equally wrong and stupid like bullfighting. Since when do traditions have to be a good thing?

You have to be a seriously sick and twisted individual to do the things these aresholes are doing to dogs. Yes they slaughter other animals for their meat, and that is also horrific and wrong..but dogs and cats are considered the most loved pets in the household and are NOT food!!! They skin, burn and boil them while they are still alive! I cannot comprehend that and I never ever will. I have a dog and she is my world! They love unconditionally and while we are at our worst. We all need to stand up and put a stop to this barbaric, disgusting, uncivilised act. There is nothing these people don’t eat! Where do we draw the line. I dont care if its an ancient ritual- doesn’t make it okay. Stoning people to death was ancient- we become civilised and we put a stop to horrific traditions that cause pain and suffering. STOP THIS NOW!!!

I cannot even bear to look at these pictures. To kill such kind, loving animals is a crime. The Chinese should be ashamed to continue with these barbaric traditions. Fuck tradition.

This all makes me just want to cry. It’s horroble. If this is a tradition, can they at least be decent about it? I think that animals, any animal that is eaten should be respected and not tortured. They should not celebrate the killing, but do it in a more private and humane way. There is nothing to celebrate here. I am a meat eater, and in some counties eating what I eat (pork meat for example) is against a religion…however, you don’t see me and my culture celebrating their death or torturing these poor animals who will become our food. I don’t agree with torturing animals of any kind, ever. Either cancel this ridiculous festival, which isn’t festive at all….or find a more decent way to eat your meat!!!

God didnt put these beautiful creatures on this Earth I be slaughtered. They are gonna burn in hell and God will punish them.

The world truly sees the animal cruelty at dog / cat meat festivals in China as disgusting as well as casts a VERY negative light on Chinese culture. China is a very beautiful country as the World saw at the Beijing Olympics, but the brutality and torture on companion animals such as Dogs and Cats ( who have been bred for thousands of years to be human companions ), this inhumane treatment by “dog meat traders” casts the entire Chinese culture and thousands of years of culture as backwards, uncultured and Uncivilized. I urge ALL Chinese citizens to fight to preserve your beautiful country’s image to the rest of the world by seeking to END animal brutality on defenseless companion animals as well as to join the rest of the civilized world by ending these ” meat festivals ” – which equate to WW2 concentration camps for animals. Please join and support Chinese Animal Rights activists to fight for the protection of China’s international reputation.

I don’t want to go into ruptures, or get aggressive on this issue, cause if I did there would be no stopping me, I ask you just one question — What is it you see when you look at a Dog ———-
Just a dog, a four legged creature, some sweet, some not so sweet, some calm , some aggressive whatever, whatever—- Now what does your DOG see when she sees YOU, looks at YOU———— Believe me They see their entire Universe — You are their Whole World — the very center of their existence — they cannot open the fridge to get a drink of water — of get fed — we have done them the greatest dis-service by Domesticating them and making them so dependent on US — and we kill them — for experimentation, medicinal, sexual, meat and other illogical excuses. That’s betrayal of the highest order, They Love US, I love my Dog enough to Give her the Meat from my Sandwich

The word Tradition should not be used in the mouths of these people as Tradition does not live here.

Only Satan lives with these people as Gods eyes shine from each and every Dog and Cat looking out into this world and finally their Cry has been heard, heard All thanks to the Good of Social Media how else would I have seen such Horror and Evil and been able to partake in a petition that the Future can Change.

Tradition is something to be proud of and is sustained and repeated because of the beauty it brings the soul. There is only beauty in the eyes of those God Given Dogs and Cats who look out into the world and Cry for all to see so this can finally come to an end and the lives that have been lost be not in vain.

I think the only way they deserve to live is be eaten and beaten and slaughtered alive to see how the 10s of 100,000s of dogs and cats they have killed have felt. There is absolutely no forgiveness that is intiteled for those people. STOP YULIN!!

I don’t like it but as it’s a tradition in another country that’s spanned many, many years, I won’t poke my nose where it’s not supposed to be. Don’t like what other countries are doing? Good thing you’re not living there then. There’s nothing we can do. Sitting around posting pics of the poor, tortured animals won’t help. They don’t see the torture after so many years of this tradition. They won’t see it now.

Not exactly. The people of Yulin believe that the more pain an animal experiences before death, the better the meat will taste. They purposely torture and abuse these animals – many stolen family pets and strays snatched from the streets – and subject them to unthinkable acts of cruelty. The issue is less about which animal they choose to eat and more about the senseless torture and unethical sourcing of those animals.

These people don’t have souls in their fucking hearts , they cannot imagine that they could be boiled and killed as they do to these animals , this is unbelievable – the way they kill the dogs , this is a big problem for the world and the bigger problem is that most of the people don’t really care about the animals , but if we think about it , on our planet , our Earth – there should be a place for every creature – because every creature is unique ! HOWEVER, THERE IS NO PLACE FOR PEOPLE WHO MURDER IN THIS WAY OTHER UNIQUE CREATURES AND expect the world to treat them properly. THERE IS NO SUCH A THING ! BOYCOT FOR THESE MOTHERFUCKERS

I think this is so heartbreaking, those pictures of dogs being burned alive with their mouths taped up, i can’t imagine how sick an individual must be to think that that is ok. It’s nothing to do with culture it’s to do with morality and about not hurting animals or any other beings.
I am a vegan and i refuse to consume animals so that my part of causing any animals has been ruled out. I believe we know little about what happens to any animals when they are farmed/slaughtered and all eating of any other beings when we have evolved not to have to do that, is wrong. Our world is screwed up, but these people who do this, their world is more than screwed up. If there is a hell, they will be going, i aren’t religious, but i hope there is so they do.

I know when people are hungry can eat everything and anything, but this just pure cruelty. I cant erase those images from my mind, It is savagery. I know Chinese people having this habit of eating weird things such as shark fins, scorpions ( seen it with my own eyes) but this one is beyond me specially the way those poor dogs getting Killed.
I have been in many place in my life, war torn places which there is absolutely nothing to eat, but never seen anyone to torch a stray dog ALIVE. No matter how poor you people are you never do such a thing to an animal unless are sadistic.
I will boycott all Chinese made food and restaurants and i encourage you people reconsider where and what you eat.
Han Cheng

I agree with the torturing part of your comment, but boycotting all Chinese made food/restaurants because of what a small group of Chinese people do is just racist and ignorant. What about the whites/blacks/indians that torture animals? Does that mean we should boycott white/black/indian restaurant?

I am a petition signer the whole nine yards.Really people I think we have here a cultural thing in certain areas in China.But why so medieval?That’s the only way I can sum it up.I live in South Africa.Now what must I say?Are certain cultures here also perhaps still in the Dark Ages?Why boil or burn an animal still alive?That must be a psycopath who does a thing like that.The Bible says:”The righteous takes care of their animals,but even the compassion of the wicked is cruel.”I guess this is not wickedness,but pure evil.But many countries are so evil.But I think we must not generalise,but heavens shoot the poor animals then in the head to death.That will even be more merciful.Why act like you live in 915 instead of 2015?I fully understand that their must be some regulations in place.Sorry,but even here in South Africa they are showing this now.Now in SA cruel things happen to animals,but we still have laws and regulations and people do get punished.

I am in full support of all animal rights laws and am as disgusted by these pictures and the video as many of you are. However, please do not assume that every Chinese person would gladly torture and kill an animal. I have a 3 month old German Shepherd mix my family and I rescued from a high kill shelter and believe me when I say she is the pride and joy of our lives.
Disgusting people like these shown horrify me.
But, I am also sick of all Asian people being thought of as cruel, callous dog murderers. Only a small portion of us actually kill and eat dogs. Please think and use your brain before posting such an ignorant, bigoted, offensive comment about how “all Asians deserve to die” because a very small amount of us eat dogs.

These people are satanic heathens. They are going straight to hell. Then they will feel the pain that they put these animals through. Over and Over and Over again, I hope. And yes, we eat cows and pigs and chickens and yes, some of the slaughter houses don’t do their due diligence by following the kill procedures. But, I believe that here in the United States, we have advocates working to keep companies in line. I know that cows and pigs and chickens are looked at as commodities. I’ve seen videos of these animals being treated inhumanely. It’s awful. The dog eating festival in Yulin would still be horrifying, but if they would at least be more humane by using injections and not stealing pets. In the United States we feed our population with meat, but in China, this is not keeping people from starving. It’s a barbaric and sick and evil tradition for no good reason. Gpd is merciful, but somehow, I think His justice on these people will not be merciful.

This is so wrong ,and to think i used to like the Chinese because of Bruce Lee. Not now we need to wipe them off the face of this earth and i hope and pray to God that he takes them out. They dont deserve to live and kill animals like that.

That is the most racist and ignorant comment I’ve ever seen. I’m Chinese and I have a German Shepherd mix my family and I rescued from a high-kill shelter. She is the pride and joy of our lives. Honestly speaking, only a small amount of (weird) Chinese people eat dogs. Not all of us are abusive to dogs and as a matter of fact, many of us keep them as family pets.
Please use your brain before posting such a bigoted, hateful statement targeting an entire race of people. People like you who think that a small group of people define an entire ethnicity disgust me and anyone with at least half a brain.

Ok,I understand,u are one of the few who likes pets/dogs….I also understand that u own a german shepherd ,so it’s not a stray dog,right!??! With all the respect for u,as an individual, I do believe that chinese people are abusive!U also consume lots of pork meat and chicken meat…what’s the need to slaughter dogs and cats?!U have festivals in this purpose,I mean…really?!? U really expect the other nations not to be judgemental?!Sorry pal but the only ignorant and racist in here it’s You! Open your eyes and mind!I am from east Europe,and with all the abuse I meet here daily(and it’s often!) \against stray cats and dogs,believe me nothing compares with chinese cruelty!!! nothing! Man ,when we have nothing to eat,we consume nettles,notches,polenta with onions,potatoes,rice,whatever,but we never ever kill our pets for a stew!Pigs and cows,chikens are not killed daily!All has a measure of surviving and we do our best not to cross it! But u…look at u! You kill the best man’s friend,daily,with no regret!So what..u have a german shepherd…why not a simply stray dog!??! Which is more faithfull and caring and gentle?!? It’s that a brand or what!??! Well I have 3 stray dogs I met in the street,no breed,no pedigrees,just 3 souls,beautifull dogs,tall and handsome (2 black and one “multicoloured” haha) and 1 black cat,also stray(european as vet said) and I blame people who care more about the breed then the dog itself…so your comment is irrelevant!So yea..not of all is abusive against animals but the majority it is and it’s a fact,no matter how hard u try to deny i!Peace man and respect dogs! The best friend a man can have in a life time!

AT LEAST WE DONT WASTE THE FUCKING FOOD!
Also, the Chinese consume less meat then those in the U.S. , about half the amount. What’s to constitute the difference between pigs and dogs? Is it just because we have domesticated them? In my eyes, you’re the only ignorant retard I see.

Pigs are just as intelligent as dogs, but we eat them. It’s cultural norms, I wouldn’t eat dog but I didn’t grow up in china. You morons need to look past the emotional bullshit aND use your brains.

The issue is less about eating dogs and more about the ruthless torture of them beforehand. It is about these people snatching family pets from backyards, and strays – with unknown medical history, no less – from the streets and then beating, burning and boiling them alive.

Jun 25, 2015 at 8:56 pm
People like you disgust me. I am Chinese-American and I have a German Shepherd puppy whom I rescued from a high kill shelter. To say that all Chinese people (me included) are raging puppy butchers is to say that all Russians drink vodka 24/7 or that all Americans go to McDonalds for every meal and are obese. Instead of blatantly spreading racist hate and calling my people “low life freaks”, maybe you should actually get up from your couch and do something, such as sign a petition to stop this slaughter from occurring. Calling an entire group of people “disgusting, immoral, inferior bastards” doesn’t fix this callous torture. What you and other like minded people should do is to protest this from occurring instead of hiding behind a computer screen and spewing out your own narrow minded views.

More reliable sources have indicated that the animals are killed first, then boiled. The animals supposedly being boiled alive in these pictures sure don’t look like they’re alive. Whatever you think about the practice of eating dog, I haven’t seen any proof that they’re being butchered any less humanely than chickens, pigs or cows.

DOG LOVER – no, this is not a prime example of why most of the population HATE the majority of chinese people. The prime examples include an affinity for ethnocentric values of the western culture and outright racism – you know, the feeling of hatred that is generated when one cannot accept the differences between one ethnic or racial group to another. The issue isn’t a “Chinese” one – it’s a matter of being a decent human being and having respect for all of God’s creation. The prime example of racism is reflected in your subjective response…as if it were facts. You have no idea how equally perverse, twisted, and scum-like Americans TEND to be.

To say it is a tradition of china is absurd, ridiculous.
It is the idea of certain subhumans who are promoting this.
To allow such atrocities in the 21 century is perverse.
to kill the dogs with such barbaric cruelty is beyond words.
Perversity deserves death in the same manner.
People ate people hundreds of years ago , is this” tradition” coming back as well?
Do we throw Christians to the lions again and call it tradition?
ISIS is doing worse and no country is able to do anything. Very poor indeed. very scary.

treated other animals and life with respect go to heaven. Those who abused and caused harm to animals and other life will go to Hell and burn eternally. I hope they burn in Hell. Put them in the boiling water and burn them alive. Dogs and cats do not deserve the torture and senseless suffering at the hands of these evil Satanists. I have boycotted Chinese food in this country. The Country make me sick with how they treat other animals. If I was there id push them in the boiling water. Why hasn’t anything been done to stop this “festival” ??? The World is against it so why let these cretins carry on with it??? I pray for the animals. Bless their souls in Heaven

ANYONE WHO DOES YULIN AND READS THIS ONE DAY I WILL FIND YOU, SKIN YOU, BURN YOU, LET YOU RECOVER FROM IT AND DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN TORTURING YOU IN MY BASEMENT FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVE LETTING YOUR FINGERS GET EATEN YOUR BALLS GET CUT OFF LITTLE BY LITTLE, I WOULD CUT YOUR EYES AND IN THE END RIP OFF YOUR EVIL SATANIC HEARTS AND ORGANS WHILE YOU WATCH ME DOING IT YOU UNEVOLVED PIECES OF BRAINCANCER.

Jun 19, 2015 at 9:57 pm
The problem is that these people have no concept of a conscious over how an animal should be treated. If you are going to kill something, treat it well while it is alive and kill it quickly and kindly. Their lives are not in your hands by choice and it is your responsibility to end it as painlessly as possible. Taking a life is not a right, it’s a privilege.
That being said, the more horrifying part is that a lot of the animals are stolen pets if not strays and may have diseases, been poisoned, drugged, or have medications in their bodies. People who eat dog meat are not only eating uncertain meat but eating meat that may be poisoning them. If they have no thoughts about their own health they should at least have a conscience about the poor families who had their pets stolen.
They don’t. I had a Taiwanese friend whose neighbours stole and skinned her pet dog alive in the yard when she was 5. By the time she came home from school they had already started. I don’t understand why anyone would think this is acceptable.
China needs to enter the modern age with all its heart and be honest with the world about what is going on. I am ashamed to be Chinese. If a dog thief came to take my dogs, I might as well kill them myself to save them from suffering.

You see it is not just the horror we feel seeing domesticated animals, pets, tortured and killed in the most atrocious ways that hurts so much. It is that the relationship of trust between man and dog goes back hundreds of thousands of years when men and dogs bonded to track the same animals both ate for food. Over such a long period of time, the dog became a part of the family of man, not an animal outsider. So these kinds of ritual killings of our family members is that much more telling and hurtful to us. It is not a cultural difference. It is plain inhumane and inhuman.

There is nothing festive in the merciless, brutal beating and torture of innocent animals. Any culture or tradition that purposely inflicts the pain and suffering on innocents is a culture that brings shame on its people and has no place in a civilized world.
China has modernized in recent years and there should be no respect or credence given to such barbarism, superstition and antiquated “traditions” within a civilized society. Such lack of compassion and human decency should be condemned and prohibited. Those who participate in the Yulin Dog Meat “Festival” bring shame and dishonor to China.
Dogs are the most selfless and noble animals. They have evolved as companions to mankind and many have saved human lives. It is the worst sin imaginable to betray such loyalty with such absolute cruelty and brutality.
This atrocity called the Yulin Dog Meat “Festival” should be canceled immediately and for all time.

It’s not the eating of dogs that irritates and sickens me. It’s the fact that they steal dogs from families, kill them right in front of the people’s eyes, torture the dogs in the most brutal way, slowly killing them and letting them suffer, is what sickens me. They cook them alive and beat them to death for god’s sakes. If you’re gonna eat dog, at least let the death be quick with no pain. Dear God stop this living hell for the harmless dogs.

These people are sick freaks and need to be burned and flayed. This infuriates me on a level that is not even conceivable. I don’t give a shit about their “tradition”
You want to kill and eat dogs do it the proper way instead of STEALING family pets.
Burning and skinning them alive, what the actual F.
No animal deserves that, and these piece of crap people need to pay. That’s not tradition, the ability to do that to an animal that has been raised in a family with love then stolen and tortured for some piece of crap society’s “festival” is psychotic behaviour.
For anyone that condones this, I hope you rot. There is no way you can say this is proper treatment. You want to eat a dog that’s been burned alive and tortured? You should be charged with cruelty.
There is a very special place in hell for all these scumbags.

No matter what culture you are from, or what animals you chose to eat – being able to kill an animal in the ways I see they do at the Yulin Festival makes you a psychopath. It cannot be made okay because it’s your tradition. This is torture and the worst animal cruelty possible. Anyone who supports some of the ways these animals are being killed is a complete maniac. You do have the right to eat whatever meat you want, regardless of other peoples wishes. But if you must take a life – do so quickly and as painlessly as possible! Anyone who supports the killing of dogs in this fashion (boiling alive, blow torching alive, dismembering alive, skinning alive etc.) have no argument. It takes sick people to be able to do that to a living thing who is visibly suffering and in pain and wants you to stop desperately. I can’t wrap my mind around any other view.

Another angry American Citizen! There must be something more that we can do besides signing a petition. Is our media controlled by China too? Why isn’t this all over the news?? Most of what we buy is from China, maybe we all need to get in front of a store with these pictures. How about the rich chartering a plane and bringing back some of these dogs and let them be adopted here. I’ll happily take 3 (even though I already have 6 dogs). They so deserve a wonderful life after what they’ve been through. I’m sick at heart, nauseous, can’t sleep. These pictures keep swirling around in my head. Let’s get together, let’s do something!!!!

Why do these people think its ok to burn, boil, beat, strangle a living animal???? Do they NOT understand that this animal feels pain, just like their child would????? Do they NOT believe in God? Do they NOT have any compassion or empathy for the animal screaming out in pain? Dear God, please help us end the suffering of animals all over the world, being tortured and murdered!

No matter what traditions and eating habits you have there is absolutely no excuse for extreme cruelty in killing any animal in these horrific ways. How can the meat possibly taste good after all the torture and cruelty that goes before. Any animal can be eaten if it is humanely killed beforehand. It makes me physically sick to think that anyone can feel good about doing this to mans best friend. Stop this now! Please share with all your friends!

After reading about this, I have cried now for two days over these poor creatures who are such loyal animals to humans. These evil beings act as though these animals don’t feel pain or fear. I don’t know how they sleep at night. No animal whether farm animal or pet should be put down in-humanely. It should at least be quick. You people who actively tourture these dogs will have to answer for these barbaric acts of evil someday. I can’t even fathom the thought of eating a dog or cat even if I were desperate for food. Much less brutally kill one just to satisfy my taste buds. No animal should have to suffer like this by the hands of a human being. This world is really evil and it saddens me to no end.

Quali orrori riesce a infliggere l’essere umano ai nostri fratelli animali ovunque nel mondo! Penso ai cani bolliti vivi in Cina, ma anche ai nostri astici bolliti nelle pentole in Europa, e ai numerosissimi allevamenti in Italia dove gli animali subiscono ogni tipo di abuso e violenza senza la protezione di nessuna legge o persona.
Indigniamoci ogni giorno e dimostriamo con il nostro esempio che il cambiamento è possibile e che possiamo nutrirci senza recare sofferenza a nessun essere con una alimentazione che preveda solo frutta e verdura.

This is devastating, but what people don’t pay enough attention to is the fact that these practices happen in our own back yard as a result of the meat, dairy, leather, egg, fur and animal testing industries. Just because it happens to a cow or pig, doesn’t make it any more humane than when it happens to a dog. Watch Earthlings if you don’t believe me. End ALL animal cruelty and GO VEGAN. Otherwise, your money is helping to support the suffering of millions of animals.

This is NOT done out of need for food. This is done fpr pure cruelty, why else would they boil/burn them alive. I pray one of the beliefs I heard of are true, and that is if an animal died with fear and suffering and you ate it, you would suffer from fear and suffering the rest of your days. I certainly hope that is true. There are just evil sadistic sub human devils from hell. I would like to send them all back there alive and screaming.

As horrible and barbaric as this festival is, if the people of the United States knew what their own government agencies are doing to animals in this country, they would not be so quick to condemn China. The US Fish & Wildlife Services kills millions of animals yearly; some family pets included. The Bureau of Land Management is responsible for the deaths of many wild animals including horses, burros, buffalo, wolves, coyotes, bobcats and others. And sadly, it is our tax dollars funding the killing. I find both countries at fault for allowing these atrocities to continue.

Eating dogs and cats is not the main reason the rest of the world is appalled at China. It is the wide spread sadistic cruelty that is used in ending these animals lives. They could easily stun the dogs but no…….. they need to skin and boil them alive.
It is common knowledge that you could shave an Angora rabbit to obtain its fur, just like shaving a mans head. Unpleasant and frightening for the animal of course. However for some bizzare reason the Chinese have to RIP the fur out in handfuls…. why !!!! so they can hear the rabbit scream???
Don’t get me started on Bear bile and ground up tigers to give them “unbelievable sexual powers” Seriously …….Whats wrong with Viagra…?????? It has been around for years and can be bought easily online.
They seem to get some kind of sick enjoyment out of inflicting the worst type of misery on other living things .
They might have advanced technology and a thriving economy but every time you face a Chinese person in a business meeting you are remembering the horrors of the videos that now dominate the internet.
They are not an educated people and have always lagged behind as the rest of the world evolved . If there are Chinese people out there who are against all these prehistoric practices against the animal world then they are keeping very quiet…..
You are only safe in China if you are a Panda…..

I am amazed they don’t eat eachother perhaps that will be next , the annual dog and cat meat festival in yulin the slaughter men , the people who buy it the people who eat it you are all foul sadistic barbaric subhuman scum , I just hope and pray that one day you suffer eternal pain and torment for what you have done .

I agree Elizabeth. Geography lesson people! In case you haven’t noticed, China is a very big country. And the Chinese people don’t all share the same beliefs. I live in the US, but that doesn’t mean I share the same beliefs as the racist white supremacist or KKK member in the deep south…or the large-scale cattle farmer out west, or the Midwest corn farmer that grows GMOs, etc. People need to stop pointing the finger at CHINA and look at the Yulin, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, specifically.

sam
Jun 14, 2015 at 2:02 am
Are you serious. Culture does not warrant the purposeful torture of thousands of animals. Our slaughterhouses are not even in the same range as this cruelty. It is not the killing that is upsetting. If it was done correctly, and quickly/as painlessly as possible, I would be less angry. However, they are essentially tortured. In none of our slaughterhouses do we literally have animals piled on top of each other in LAYERS in cages, nor do they kill them or beat them so barbarically. Not only that, but did you even watch the video?? They are often PETS TAKEN FROM FAMILIES… do we have any slaughterhouses that do that? If you do any additional research, they do horrific things, such as ELECTROCUTE, burn the dogs with BLOWTORCHES, and other stuff. Out slaughterhouses and this festival are incomparable.

Caroline Burton
Jun 14, 2015 at 2:25 am
Suki, how can you say you are not against torturing terrified dogs (and cats); animals that are sentient beings and share our emotions, such as fear and joy, pain and pleasure. The look on the faces of dogs and cats is one of despair, just as we would look if we were in their place. How CAN you say you are not against this? Why compare this with the slaughter of cows? I don’t eat meat or dairy products, but the point is that one should never excuse an atrocity simply because another atrocity exists somewhere else. We should be condemning all cruelty, not excusing it.
Unfortunately, there is so much cruelty in the world, it is impossible to tackle it all at once. I am a New Zealander and we protest cruelty in our country, such as the recent shipment of 53,000 animals to Mexico, the chaining of dogs, the killing of feral cats, the testing of products on animals, cruel rodeos, hunting, etc. etc. We have Chinese immigrants here, some of whom join in the protests and demonstrations, some are members of local animal rights groups here. My point is, if you are a compassionate person, any cruelty anywhere should concern you. Culture, tradition, or religion are not reasons to excuse cruelty, for it is a human failing to find pleasure in the pain of another being; psychologists call that psycopathy! Find your moral consciousness and cultivate it and take another look at the way cats and dogs are tortured in your country.
The Chinese government has been sitting on an animal welfare bill that was drafted in 2009, don’t you think it’s time your government passed this bill into law? Don’t look to other countries for cases of animal cruelty in order to excuse what is happening in your own country. We should be protesting all forms of cruelty and protecting all animals, human or non-human. It is extreme cowardice to torture a terrified animal and you should not be condoning such inhuman behaviour.
Mark Montgomery
Jun 14, 2015 at 12:31 pm
The idea that torturing animals is ok with you if it is part of ones culture or religion means that you should probably seek mental health counselling. As far as I am aware cows are not boiled/skinned/burned alive in slaughterhouses.

Jun 14, 2015 at 3:15 am
We all think people who torture animals to death are cowardly psychopaths, sick bastards, of course, but they can be of any race. If your government and previous governments had failed to protect animals with legislation, there would be plenty of cowardly psychopaths emerging to behave badly! In every society there are sick bastards, but they’re usually too afraid to indulge their sadistic side for fear of the law. You have to admit, now and again someone commits a sickening atrocity on an animal and the law gives them with what most of us consider to be a pathetic ‘punishment’. The same sick bastards usually abuse their wives and children too, proving that animal abusers are also people abusers, or just plain sick cowardly bastards!
The Chinese government should be sorting out the draft animal welfare legislation and passing into law, for it has been ‘sitting’ on this now for over six years. They say you get the government you deserve and there’s probably a lot of truth in that, in democratic countries! China is not a democratic country and the people have no say in who should govern them and what laws should be enacted. I think it’s time China became a democracy and allowed good citizens to stand for election, but that’s another issue. In the meantime, we should all be writing, emailing, tweeting and fb’ing the Chinese politicians, asking them to pass the animal welfare bill into law. That would be a good start, followed by ensuring the law was enforced and those who ignored it being punished.
We have a lot of Chinese immigrants here in Auckland, New Zealand – many of them have pets, help as volunteers in animal shelters, protest animal cruelty and some are animal rights activists. We also have a lot of New Zealanders who regularly break the law by abusing animals, beating their wives, sometimes beat their kids to death – same sort of people, sick bastards. Don’t call us all sick bastards though, for the rest of us are OK….
The guy who neither agrees or disagrees with this subject
Jun 14, 2015 at 11:24 am
Not everybody in China is like this, I don’t agree with this matter too, but what you said really pisses me off. Im not a “Sick Bastard” and yes some products in China are bad but where do you think your phone was made, most likely China and is that “Shity”? Probably not. Western ways and Easterns/ Asian ways are different, we do different things and if you don’t like Eastern/ Asian ways then maybe do something about like it said in the article “In 2011, a similar festival in the Zhejiang province of China was cancelled due to public outcry and a massive internet petition.” So instead of sitting here and saying Chinese people are “Sick Bastards” you could start a internet petition theres nothing stopping you. So like I said before I don’t agree with this matter and I don’t like what they are doing but that doesn’t give you a reason to say terrible things about all Chinese people.

The Chinese people are so advanced in buisness and Hi-Tech, with that so, they are very old-fashioned in all that concerns humanity and compassion. This torture should be stopped. No animal deserves to be tortured and slaughtered so cruelly. Dogs and cats which seek the love and compassion of humans do not deserve it either.

I belive there is such a thing as karma.

…. I truly hope that one day this nation will be educated to have more compassion towards all animals. I know quiet a lot of Chinese outside the country who love and appreciate their pets but on the whole this is a cultural issue and needs to be addressed over time. they are cruel towards animals whose fur and organs are useful for an array of commercial use. just the thought that as I am sitting here, thousands of cats and dogs are being tortured and killed, makes me ashamed of our species and what they’re capable of. I am vegetarian for a reason!

No government in the world is capable of perfect control towards 1.35 billion people. The Government of China are fining, imprisoning, arresting, but there are always cases out of their grasp.

Leanne Charters

Don’t blame the race. Don’t accuse them of being Chinese, there are cruel people in every race. Just because if a person is born a particular race, doesn’t mean they support another’s barbaric ideas, just because they are linked in race. The Government of China are trying hard, fining and jailing, but a government cannot control a population of 1.35 billion without incidents like these from occurring. Easy to say that you will never purchase another thing made in China. If you believe that “they are not fit to be a member of the world community” then damn, your thinking is really simplistic and naive.

I didn’t believe at first, but my god it’s true and you just can’t walk away from something so wrong, inhumane and barbaric! I really thought China was finally getting somewhere with thier new wildly spread animal lovers, but Yulin refuses to budge! Disgusting, old-school bunch of subhumans! Shame on all of you. Hope your stomach feels better knowing what you’ve done to these poor stolen, innocent dogs!

I AM HEARTBROKEN, DISMAYED, DEEPLY SADDED, FILLED WITH HORROR & DESPAIR AND TOTALLY DISGUSTED BY THE BARBARIC INHUMANE CHINESE INVOLVED, WHO HAVE NO COMPASSION, NO EMPATHY AND NO SOUL. THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO TORTURE BOIL & SKIN ALIVE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF DOGS AND CATS (AND NOT ONLY FOR THEIR ANNUAL YULIN DOGCATMEAT FESTIVAL EITHER) I REGULARLY DO THE #StopYulin2015 TWEETSTORMS PLUS RAISE CONSTANT AWARENESS EVERY SINGLE DAY WITHOUT FAIL, TIRELESSLY, BECAUSE I AM COMMITTED TO MAKING THE CHINESE (AND VIETNAMESE, INDONESIANS, SOUTH KOREANS ETC.) REALIZE THAT ANIMALS ARE SENTIENT BEINGS WHO FEEL FEAR AND PAIN THE SAME AS WE DO. THAT THEY HAVE A SOUL JUST LIKE US. THERE IS ALSO ONE ISSUE WHICH WAS RAISED IN THIS ARTICLE, WHICH NEVER FAILS TO ANGER ME, NAMELY -AND I QUOTE: “there are no quarantine systems in place to monitor the health of the animals, thereby raising additional concerns of safety to Yulin residents that partake in the festival.” WELL ALL I CAN SAY TO THIS IS THAT I PERSONALLY DON’T GIVE A DAMN IF THEY _ALL_ DROP DEAD! EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM THAT “PARTAKE IN THE FESTIVAL” WHY SHOULD WE BE CONCERNED FOR THE YULIN RESIDENTS SAFETY WHEN THEY BELONG BACK IN THE DARK AGES WITH THEIR BARBARIC MEDIEVAL PRACTICES. NO, LET THEM ALL DIE LONG LINGERING DEATHS!!! RID THE EARTH OF THEM AND MAYBE THEN THE ANIMALS CAN LIVE IN PEACE!

Dianna, I know exactly how you feel in regards to the health and rabies issue. If these participants become ill or die who cares, right? However, I believe protestors are trying to use that issue as a way to get through to the Chinese, as the cruelty/inhumane aspect doesn’t seem to affect them. The Chinese (not ALL I realize) have proven themselves time and again to be barbaric and without compassion (who needs rhinos or tigers anyway?), so if using this fact, that this practice puts their health at risk, to convince them to stop this horror show, so be it. Hopefully the compassion will eventually follow.

You know how many compassionate Chinese and Asian animal rights activists have been trying to fight this for years. Everyone who loves dogs and cats needs to jump in and do whatever they can to help add to that fight. With enough political pressure, any government (no matter how corrupt), will cave. I’ll make a pledge to the embassy that I will not purchase anything made in China (and yes, I’ll be checking) until the DOG AND CAT MEAT TRADE ends completely – starting with the end of this DISGUSTING festival. As a species, we have ended many inhumane “traditions” because so many of us want to see a brighter future for all life on this planet. THIS HAS TO END – who wants to join this fight with me?
For all the animals who love and trust us unconditionally, we MUST do whatever it takes to protect them!

What people do or eat in China, or wherever, is no business of people in Europe or America. How would Americans like it if the Chinese started protesting our eating turkeys at Thanksgiving? Dogs are no different than any other animal — except for their filthy, destructive habits — and if people want to eat dogs, they have just as much right to do so as we have to eat pigs, cows, chickens, or whatever. People need to mind their own business!
Sarah
Jun 24, 2014 at 10:51 am
Apart from the fact that dogs are domesticated as pets (not lifestock) and whether it’s acceptable or not to eat dogs, the most upsetting thing is the way the dogs are treated.There’s absolutely no excuse for that. The dogs are put in overcrowded cages for transport, don’t have access to water of food. They are obviously in pain and suffering. There’s video footage of dogs being dragged alongside motorcycles, clearly exhausted and suffering. Some of the dogs are simply stolen from their owner, imagine how they must be feeling. The dogs are in no way humanely killed, but often skinned or burned alive. The dogs are being tortured, so that does make it OUR business. The world should give a clear signal that this is absolutely not acceptable behaviour. No animal should be treated like this, dog or cow or turkey.
And if people need to mind their own business, what if some people decide to eat humans? After all humans are no different than any other animal – except for their filthy, destructive behavior, guess who’s responsible for the mass extinction of species,the destruction of our environment, global deforestation, air and water pollution, oceans full of plastic, nuclear waste and so on?

You mean how the Indian would protest against eating the cow, or that eating pig was not kosher for jewish and muslim believers.
Problem is, the evaluation of animal, regardless of species or kind, is still a grade below our own worth judged by some as human, and even there, we’ve got those who believe us to be human or evolved animal, while there are those who live as BEINGS, not as humans, if I can make it simple to understand.
Now to me, a “dog”, an animal, is also a living BEING, and only a living BEING will notice another living BEING unjustly abused, tortured, killed as unacceptable to standards of life for life’s sake. See? Human nature is not all we have, just as human is not all we are.

Stop defending cruelty and maybe start giving a sh*t about it, and we could evolve as a species before cannibalize the planet and each-other. Cynical prick.

You couldn’t be more wrong. The whole world is guilty of inflicting pain on animals for people’s consumption, but most countries attempt to have regulations in place for the treatment of the animals. The Yulin, Guangxi’s annual dog slaughter has no regard for the pain inflicted on the dogs. Boiling, burning and bludgeoning dogs to death causes agonizing pain to these creatures–regardless of their destructive habits. Don’t these villagers have a conscience?

I am not able to see the photos of dogs and immediately closed my eyes to see the innocent dogs that are being cruelly killed by chinese. I wondered being human being how one can eat dogs , pigs and cows etc which have souls , body, pain like us. Only thing they can’t talk. That does’nt mean we can kill them and eat . In medieval days , when humans were not cultivated grains, rice and vegetables, they hunted animals and ate for survival. In this 22 century also, people does inhuman activities for filling their bellies. God gave us nature, trees and plants for survival ,we can’t kill our fellow animals in a henious manner which is a sin. Animal lovers , nature lovers must educate human beings of this world in social net working sites to practice vegetarian food and shun eating meat of any animal.In India , mostly now a days practice vegetarian food.

Why would someone with a mind eat helpless animals? Ive also read on the net that they even believe that the more you torture it, the better it tastes. So these dogs are really being abused. They are poisoned, drugged, butchered, and cooked! Then they are EATEN! And some dogs probably have diseases! It’s not cultural. It’s just about the worst possibal thing you could do to a living animal. And STOLEN pets? Imagine eating your precious animal! I bet they just jump the fence and steal the animal. Then the child walks out,”Mommy! Daddy! Puppy is gone!” Then you hear the father,” Hmm this festival sounds good. Let’s go!” Then the child has to consume his pet. The festival has no specific purpose. Only to beat the souls out of these harmless, poor, strays!

One thing I do not agree, please, do not labelling such inhumane activities as Chinese. Only few provinces in China sticks to the old-barbaric thing. Not the majority of us. In such provinces, very small percentage. The comon knowledge for food resources are basically the same.

You keep bring up meat eating in general ! As your one and only argument you dumb fuck and yes it’s bad enough BUT the animals slaughtered for meat are slaughtered humanely ! Hiw can you compare that to beating, skinning alive! Boiling still alive! Burning whilst skinned and still alive, it is indeed acts of subhuman , cruel , barbaric,and has no place in a modern world the world is watching you!!

Shut the hell up Reality Bytes. You’re an ignorant fuck if you actually believe that a cow is the same as a dog. Have you heard of a cow saving a drowning child? Have you heard of a seeing eye chicken? Have you heard of a pig saving a family from a burglar? Dogs are domesticated animals. They are used for therapy for sick children. I’ve also heard of doctors suggesting a dog to help with depression. They are meant to be our companions and best friend in this horrible world. They bring love and joy to a family home. They were NOT created to be food. Look at the size of a cow or a pig. They were created for our survival. Chickens have tiny paws, the rest of their body is meat. Dogs are mainly skin and bones. They don’t have a enough meat on them to feed a huge family. I wish people would shut up and STOP saying dogs are the same as any other animal.
Eating cats and dogs is wrong, disgusting, and a health risk. These poor fur babies are tortured and killed in inhumane ways. It’s also been scientifically proven that dogs are similar to humans. If you’re okay eating a dog than you must condone eating people as well. People like you Reality Bytes is exactly why I like dogs more than people. Calling people cunts also proves you’re an ignorant fuck. This cruelty in China has to stop. I have signed online petitions, donated money to the cause and hope others who have love and compassion in their hearts will do the same.

If the people that embrace this festival think it’s so normal to inflict torture onto dogs, I say they sign up for the same exact treatment. Why don’t they get beaten to a pulp for extended periods of time while their buddies watch in horror and wait for their turn and then get skinned and boiled alive while everyone stands around laughing and joking. You know, it may just be possible that karma will turn them into these dogs when they are reincarnated. Culture as an excuse for torture is a joke. Sadly, these dogs get worse treatment than factory farmed animals which needs major improvement as well. However, I have to say that the dog meat industry is BY FAR, the most deplorable, demonic, sadistic, and torturous treatment of sentient beings that I have ever witnessed. It is extremely difficult to respect people who laugh while they torture animals. These cowards couldn’t endure the pain they put these helpless creatures through for one minute yet they laugh and defend it as culture. We’d have a bunch of screaming, crying, terrified “victims” on our hands if this happened to them yet it’s perfectly fine to torture these innocent animals. They are a bunch of cowards with no moral conscience.

But DOGS are pets they are loving a mans best friend .. A nanny dog …. They are intelligent they all no what gonna happen next .. Even when tortured they will still give u the most love and kisses back coz they love human affection .. Then u do that to them for what reason a festival I bet half of them go to waste ..

Well, I look at dogs like any other animal. Cows, chicken, etc.
I mean, dogs are probably more intelligent, but you can’t just tell Chinese people that they have to stop eating dogs.
However, I think (and that’s not just for the dogs) that they should be slaughtered in a humane way. Immediate death, no pain, no torture. And no using the dead bodies for fun afterwards, these were alive animals, you cant just use their dead bodies to hang next to your door as some weird decoration.

Don’t forget that you are also an animal, Lily. Dogs are not livestock. They were selectively bred from wolves, to serve mankind from sniffing bombs to guarding your backyard. If you view all animals alike, I suppose you would be willing to kill any kind yourself. Would you just as soon club a beagle over the head as catch a fish? Probably not.

I love dogs and don’t like the ways they were treated and killed for meat in China. However, I suspect the first photo was somewhat set up to me. It looks like the lovely poodle was kept in a basket hung on the front of a bicycle by its owner and was not part of dogs to be killed for meat as described in the photo legend. Such dogs would be kept in cages.

No, cannibalism and head shrinking were traditions so that argument is meaningless. What matters is not even the choice of food which is just a difference of cultures. Deliberate, sustained cruelty, however, systematically imposed with the intention of inflicting the greatest suffering, whether towards animals or people cannot be excused. I repeat, towards animals or people. I get so tired of people who excuse being a sick sadistic moron on the grounds that anyone who objects should only spend their energy caring about humans. We should treat both with humanity. At Yulin and in the dog and cat meat trade generally, they don’t know the meaning of the word.

The animals were not created to be eaten by humans. These are humans who have decided to do it. The first men were fruitarian. The men began to eat animal flesh because they have learned to cook it. We are facing a terrible animal genocide! Our humanity is not human, it is barbarian! I am sorry for my English who is not very at the point. I am French and I never eat the flesh of the animals. I think of all these poor souls of Yuling. Dogs are creatures affectionate that God entrusted to us to accompany our roads sometimes so difficult. God will not forgive that the men destroy his creation!

And we were not created to eat meat. Our bodies were meant for grains and fruit/veggies. What a mess of a world we live in. Even if meat was ok and meant for us…we are still sinning due to be Gluttons. Can only pray for those scared animals being tortured that God will hold onto them through it all.

Whoever told you “God created dogs” is delusional. God did not create dogs, they were created by man from wolves. God, or nature, created animals to live in harmony in a natural ecosystem, dogs are the sadistic serial killers and mass murderers of the animal kingdom. Unlike the wolves from which dogs are descended that kill only for food or out of fear, dogs chase down and kill other animals solely for the fun of chasing and killing and, as such, have no place in the natural order of things. Anyone who loves dogs, hates natures. Additionally, unlike natural creatures, dogs have filthy, disgusting habits. For example, dogs are the only mammals on earth besides pigs and rats that eat human excrement and even pigs and rats won’t eat it unless they’re starving, but dogs lap it up like ice cream. If you want to know what God thinks of dogs, read Rev. 22:15.

I know my dog was taken by a neighbor and I went over there to get her and they said Oh she is so beautiful “Do you want to sell her?” NO NO NO was the answer!!! Then I had an emergency and my Ex was to take care of her and her daughter, my two babies, I was 200 miles away and my EX calls I’m sorry I can’t find Bambi, OMG I was home as quick as I could. I searched everywhere I went down alleys and went into abandoned homes and ran into some real thugs! But guess what, even these drug dealing thugs have more heart than those bastards in China, They dropped everything and started helping in my search! This neighbor had her but wouldn’t answer, I had a pic of my dog and one of the guys climbed up on the back fence which was all straight boards and said “I see her, she’s in the corner cowering and about 8 other dogs all around her in the hot sun!!!” I actually went to the front and almost drove my car thru, I started yelling and honking and telling them I was about ready to call the police! Suddenly a man comes out holding my baby by the back of her neck “Here here she is, I was going to bring her to you!!” I told him “Yah right, if ever you take her again you will be the sorriest person in this world” and with these gang members standing behind me he never took her again!!!! My baby was so shook up “fighting the other dogs and her little paws all burnt, I cleaned her and actually carried her for 3 days until she finally could walk again” So I never buy anything anymore that says “MADE IN CHINA” I will never go there and they all should have a taste of their own medicine!!!

You make a good point Jason. While I’m definitely an animal lover, I love steak way too much to become a vegitarian. I do, however, make sure that any animal products I consume were raised/killed in safe and ethical ways. I eat cage-free eggs/chicken products. The beef I eat is from private farms where the cows are not raised in mud-pits but in open pastures. When they are killed, I know they are not tortured and no one gets enjoyment or celebrates their death as the people of Yulin appear to do during their festival.
You can be in support of the ethical treatment of animals (ie: not torturing them, skinning them alive, etc) and still consume them. That to me is not being hypocritical.

So true!! I could not even imagine the pain these poor animals feel physically and mentally! I know my Dogs and I do scold them, but never ever lay a finger on them and they are the most loyal, protecting and loving pets ever. When ever I go to an appt. I have to tell them and assure them I will be back. When I return they actually wait quietly for me to come in and be settled and then my German Shep actually stands up and throws those huge paws around me. The other dog a chihuahua patiently waits for me to pick her up. If I leave in a hurry and don’t tell them, when I come home they actually cry and try to get to me as soon as I open the door. So I know they are wondering as they wait to be killed so horribly and they see the other ones go thru hell as they die so painfully that “WHY, what did I do to deserve this?” So So Sad!!!!!!

You’re still an hypocrite. Or do you think all those dead bodies you ingested during your lifetime wanted to be killed. Meat is murder. And who says a pig or cow is less worth than a dog. And eating meat is disastrous for the planet. It takes ten times more space and energy to produce meat than plant food. By eating meat you are killing sentient beings, destroying the environment and make food in general more expensive, thus poor people have to suffer hunger just because some like to eat dead bodies. You’re more hypocrite actually than the Chinese. At least, they don’t glorify and make some animals holy. If you really want to set an example and stop what the chinese are doing with animals in general, stop being an hypocrite and be vegan/vegetarian. Otherwise you’re just a clown in their eyes “oh, those poor pooches… Now let’s have some dead cow for dinner”

I agree with you Jason. I love dogs, but all animals are animals.
We have to also consider this practice as a cultural difference and should not condemn the traditional aspect of it. Sanitation is a problem and public slaughter should be done away with. Anthropologically, people should consider to not be biased towards different cultural practices. In North America we kill and eat many different animals, while other places kill and eat horse, cat, and baby animals.
It is a very difficult thing to not challenge especially when one aspect of our culture prizes and loves a particular aspect such as dogs.

How many petitions have you signed to stop any of this – even with cows, pigs…chickens? I have signed all of them….I feel you actually don’t care about any of the animals, as I don;t see any compassion in your statement….so don’t judge others for their compassion when it comes to utter abuse and cruelty. Do you have a dog or a cat? If you do…hold them close and be thankful they are not going to be someone’s meal!

the chinese only saving grace was their panda program I am sure there are some great chinese people but the majority appears to be totally void of compassion

Who says people aren’t doing this? I am. I am sad for every animal that is hurt, tortured, killed, eaten, etc. I even say a small prayer in my head when I notice that I’ve stepped on an ant, or have to kill a flea in order to keep my pets and my family safer – no bites, worms, etc. So, you’re not alone.

Jason is 100% correct!! YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE if you believe that the murder of one animal is any different than the next. China eats dog/cat meat the same way Americans eat cow/chicken meat, so what is the difference? Please explain!
If it makes you feel better that you consume murdered animals by saying that it is not the same because the dogs in China are ‘stolen’… that’s pure BS! There is NO WAY that they are ALL stolen and would this act be acceptable to you if they were ‘free range’ dogs or raised on ‘organic feed’???
I can say that I AM a TRUE animal lover because I use/consume NOTHING that contains any ingredient that comes from ANY animal, that is a TRUE animal lover. You ‘love steak’ too much to become vegetarian but you use ‘organic’ products? Why waste your money saving animals in lab studies and all the while slaughter a cow for your steak? Makes no logical sense!
For those that want to know where these ‘free range’ ‘no antibiotic use’ atmospheres are that you pay extra money for at your local grocer… check out the undercover videos that PETA.ORG has on their website and after you watch one of the videos and see the barbaric acts of neglect/torture/rape/abuse/murder that these animals suffer tell me if you are still able to enjoy your steak so much! Anyone with an ounce of compassion would find it impossible. If you cannot stomach the videos then read about how farm animals are riddled with diseases of the flesh/organs and are pumped full of antibiotics to keep them alive, antibiotics that the meat eater then consumes… or how chickens are injected with growth hormones so often to be mass produced that their legs do not grow as fast as their bodies and they cannot support their own weight!
DO NOT tell people you are an animal lover when you are cooking your steak on the grill or washing your hair with products that have blinded rabbits.
No, I am not being self righteous here… I am making a point! I am sharing my deep empathy/compassion for ALL animals!

tammy your message makes no sense.are you saying god said you can eat animals bbut not dogs?god said all animals were under our supervision and we were to take care of them and we were to eat seed bearing plants.since you want to talk about god open your bible you silly fool.all animals have feelings and are capable of critical thinking.dogs are not more intelligent than most farm animals.they all deserve respect.the person above spoke coomplete sense and you revert to call him names.your an ass

This is right up there with Aztecs sacrificing humans! Dogs are man’s Best friend Not “What’s For Dinner?” This is a worldwide outrage under the guise of cultural event. This needs to Stop NOW! We are to be caretakers of animals not cannibals! There is absolutely despicable and cruel to these pets.
The Aztec culture collapsed from the inside out and so will China if they continue with their cruelty. The Whole world needs to Stop this inhumane practice.
