1. I don't get it. I recall a conversation with a co worker several years back |
|
where he commented that dogs were a food source, not pets. He was a Cambodian refugee and did not like a friends dog continually coming up to him, wagging it's tail, licking him, wanting to play.
Different cultures, I guess...I don't get it.

2. I wonder what would happen if people tried to stop animals going to slaughter houses here in the US. |
|
I imagine they would be arrested and made an example of.

5. you better believe it! |
|
except some of these dogs still had bells and tags. SO...if you want to look at the dogs as food....well, here in the west a man can still get hanged for stealing cattle!

6. The stealing of pets definitely adds a layer of meanness to the story not usually found |

7. yeah.... makes it much nastier. |

It hurts to lose a pet...so it is causing misery on top of killing a pet. The article said they do the same with cats! (find truckloads of them!)
