Eating Dog Meat: Objectively Wrong

[LostInParadise]

I think it's wrong, and you cannot compare a dog, with a cow or a chicken, like many people do, they are very different kind of animals, the cows are farm animals.

the chinese are disgusting, not just because they eat dogs, but because they kidnap PETS to eat them. awful.

Well you should respect other people's opinion. That's why we are here after all.

I respect your opinion but humans are made to be omnivores. We have the canines for it, and strict vegetarians need to take supplements for things they cannot get plentifully without meat or dairy.

Exactly, but what you are missing here is that Pigs and Cows developed into the animal they are because we bred and domesticated their ancestors for food purposes, whilst Dogs developed for SPECIFICALLY the opposite reason. In China they breed DOGS for food, yes but it is the very existence of the dog itself that is the issue here. Basically if we had eaten their ancestors, and they had not developed the way they did for so many years in order to arrive at the animal they are today the Chinese would NOT have a Dog to eat.

We bred dogs to watch over cattle, just like we bred cows for their milk, and chickens for their eggs. But we still slaughter and eat those animals when they stop producing milk or eggs. I don't see a profound reason here for not eating dog.

I am completely vegan and I dont take any additional food supplements. My last blood tests showed that my stats are just fine.

The thing is though we always ate chicken and cows and their ancestors which affected the way we treated them and how they developed into the animal they are today. It is what we established for all those years of development. We established a very particular relationship with each of the animals we domesticated, and with dogs ancestors and early dog it was not to eat them. It happened on rare and segregated occasions, but they were very limited, if it had been any different dogs as we know them would not exist.

Dogs are carnivores and accumulate many toxins and nasty things on its flesh. When another animal kills a dog, never eat it for that reason.

Domesticated dogs are mostly vegetarians. Even wild pigs are omnivores.

so, i eat dogs before and i will it them after. Good and tasty meat, just try and you always will prefered dogs to another kinds of meat cause they have a balanced food and free-range.

Better of all are dog of fighting breeds - they are have a best food and contain much more meat.

The common fodder has meat too, plus people feed them with leftover of animals like bones, visceres, etc . Wild pigs are omnivores but in a very low proportion, like 90-95% of its diet is vegetarian.
