Golden Bulls celebrate eating stolen cats and dogs--The day my dog was cooked for din




This week about 10,000 dogs and a number of cats were killed at an annual dog-meat festival in south-western China, to celebrate the longest day of the year. For the BBC's Juliana Liu it was a reminder of one of the most traumatic days of her childhood, in the Chinese city of Changsha.

When I was three years old, after months of begging, my parents finally gave in to my pleas for a puppy.

The day that my uncle, a lorry driver, brought me a fuzzy yellow mongrel from my grandmother's mountainous, faraway home was the happiest of my young life.

I named him "Doggie", and we immediately became inseparable.

As an only child born in 1979 at the beginning of China's one-child policy, I had always been alone, and Doggie became my best friend. He loved running around outside our one-room flat, gobbling up left-over rice and snuggling near the coal fire.

But these halcyon days did not last. After just one winter, my parents told me Doggie had to go.

In Chinese cities in the early 1980s owning a pet was considered highly undesirable, bourgeois behaviour. None of my neighbours had one. It was also not entirely legal. There was no access to animal vaccines or vets, so pets could pose a public health risk.

One day, my mother announced we were going shopping - and when we returned a few hours later Doggie was no more. He had been strung up by the legs in our communal yard, and was soon turned into a stew, complete with herbs and hard-boiled eggs.

No-one paid any attention to my tears. I heard the neighbours say I would soon forget the whole thing.

They, on the other hand, were in a celebratory mood. In the years before China's economic boom, when some food was still rationed, it was rare to have the chance to feast on a whole animal.

I refused to eat the stew - and I have never eaten dog in my life.




About 716 million pigs are slaughtered in the country every year, and 48 million cattle. The number of dogs slaughtered is far lower - one animal rights group puts the figure at about 10 million.

But where do these dogs come from? According to some researchers, many are pets - like Doggie, except they have been stolen from their owners.

As dogs were arriving for the dog-meat festival at Yulin in Guangxi province this week, Peter Li of Humane Society International saw no animals with quarantine inspection certificates to indicate they had been farmed.

"All of them can be suspected to be stolen urban pets, rural guard dogs and stray dogs and cats," he says.

A four-year inquiry into the dog-meat industry by Animals Asia also concluded that most dogs eaten in China are stolen.

"During the entire investigation, we found no evidence of any large-scale breeding facilities, where 100-plus dogs were bred and raised," says the report published earlier this month.

"The difficulty of large-scale breeding of dogs for food and the greed for profit give rise to stealing, snatching from the streets and even poisoning of dogs."

But Li says there is mounting pressure on Chinese authorities to take action against the eating of pets - and that society is turning against the idea of eating dog altogether.

Chinese had terriblr famines and never had the kind of abundance to develop those kind of bonds to dogs on a societal level

there are many chinese who now keep dogs as pets

things are changing

and if i were starving, I would absolutely eat your dog, and if u got in my way, then you'd be on the dinner menu too son

That's because of societal conditioning. In some places in China it would be the reverse due to their conditioning.

The point I'm making is the only reason you feel more sorry for the dog is because you're used to them as pets. Cows are just as loving/caring/sentient as dogs, yet we happily slaughter them for steaks.

Holocaust denial is illegal in over 18 countries. if an organized killing of jews happened so definitely, why would people need to serve prison sentences for questioning it?

Pigs, sure. But the difference is that dogs are first and foremost carnivores, and as such less healthy to eat than herbivores. And second, dogs are symbiotic to humans. I don't even like dogs, but dogs are beneficial to humans as companions.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

India is a good example of what not to do as a whole.

Partially false.

Most cultures don't eat predatory animals that consume mammals because even primitive men figured out that diseases pass from blood to blood easier than anything else.

Cows, pigs and fowl are all herbivores. It's also why we don't eat owls, eagles and falcons.

would have less of an issue with it if they were farmed and ethically slaughtered like cattle/pigs. but stealing people's pets is heinous.

still kind of ****ed because of dogs' capabilities to love and be loyal.

When I was in Cambodia, this was well known.

A guy would drive a scooter down the road making a racket, dragging cans, etc behind him.

Peoples pets would run out to the road to bark at the shooter and be snagged by another guy on a second scooter with a catch pole.
