Cruelty over Chinese dog meat festival should be raised with the Chinese gov

Petition Details

Chinese population has eaten dog meat for the last 400 years. A festival is held annually in Yulin, Guangxi, China during the Summer solstice in June. About 10,000 to 15,000 dogs are consumed over a 10 day period.

Additional Information

The dogs are often not killed humanely. Dogs are often beaten to death as the Chinese like adrenaline soaked meat.

Since the local government denies any official involvement or endorsement of the festival then this should be something that can be raised quite easily with the Chinese government.

I accept the Chinese right to eat Dog as we eat Cow, Sheep etc. My objection is that the dogs are frightened an abused before inhumainly killed. Please can you debate I feel that there is little I can do, so looking for my government to help.
