| The dog meat trade in Asia will be debated in parliament on Thursday, - please lobby your MP to attend and please sign the petition. Every year, millions of dogs become victims of the dog meat trade in Asia. Much of the world sees dogs as their trusted companions, but in parts of Asia they suffer terribly as victims of the trade in dog meat for human consumption. In some Asian countries, dogs used for this industry are mostly stolen pets and they are sometimes tortured before being slaughtered (often by being blowtorched to death) as it is thought this makes the meat more tender. The dog meat trade is not only cruel, but is also linked to the spread of rabies and other diseases. Dogs shouldn't suffer and die for the trade of their meat. Tell your MP to support an end to the dog meat trade throughout Asia, and to urge the governments of all countries where the trade in dog meat exists to work diligently and quickly towards eradicating this cruel and unnecessary practice. The petition is at https://action.hsi.org/ea-action/action?ea.client.id=104&ea.campaign.id=44067&ea.tracking.id=sharefb |
