Nobody, and I mean nobody, loves dogs more than I do. What they do to them at this "festival" is disgusting.

But for some perspective, please see:

How we treat ALL animals on this planet is gross and immoral. However, I am not a vegetarian so I can hardly take the moral high ground here. Hopefully we can all do what we can to make the animals in the food chain suffer the least amount during their lives and slaughter.

I wish I could give up eating meat altogether but I love a juicy fillet, BBQ chicken breast or a rack of lamb. Raising cattle is a huge contributor to climate change too.

Until my dinner consists of tofu and other fun stuff, I have to butt-out of any conversations telling other people what to eat or not to eat. This includes hunters, the horse-eating French, and unfortunately the Asian canine crew.

Now excuse me, I have to go pet my dog before I start crying.
