#ItsNoFestival
Dear Joy,
This year on June 22, the southern Chinese city of Yulin will host
its now infamous dog meat festival. But this is no
festival. In just one day, up to 2,000 dogs will
be slaughtered, all in the name of profit.
Dog meat traders started the annual Yulin dog meat festival in 2009
when they saw an opportunity to make money, but the event has
attracted widespread criticism over cruelty and consumer
health risks. This saw the authorities withdraw their
support in 2013. Dogs are stolen from their homes or snatched from
the street and crammed into cages so small and with such
force their bones break.
They will be forced to endure multiple days of horrendous transport
conditions and torturous heat, leaving most sick, dehydrated and in
some instances, dead.
Dogs are often sedated by poison darts and even cyanide. Unhygienic
transport, slaughter and food preparation mean that toxins
and disease find their way into the meals of
festival-goers.

Our journey is just beginning
but together we can stop this so-called festival. Animals Asia has
written an open letter calling on the dog meat traders to
cancel the event.
Please add your name to our letter. 2,000 dogs are counting
on you.
Thanks so much for your support.
