A Los Angeles restaurant has been granted permission to consume and sell
dog meat. A Filipino group successfully argued that the banning of the
consumption of dog meat violated their religious rights.

Puchow de Manila Eatery and Fine Dining has been granted provisional
permission to sell and consume dog meat, while the Supreme Court decides
if their case has merit. The restaurant is allowed to slaughter up to 3
dogs per day, with the stipulation that they must be put down humanely.
The World Animal Protection agency called the decision “shocking,” and
vowed to fight tooth and nail to ensure this act is not allowed to continue.

I don't have any problems with people eating dogs, the question is what
is meant by humanely killing them. Do we break their necks like a
chicken or shoot them between the eyes like a cow, or stick them with a
knife like a pig? Do we give them lethal injections? What's the best way
to kill a dog for food?

These days it's mostly the old Filipinos that would eat dogs. The newer
generation is not interested in such distasteful notions. What I don't
get is why people think that a select few animals should be treated as
untouchable. I tell you, this entire town is overrun with stray cats and
chickens. People eating more cats and chickens ain't such a bad idea. If
we want to ban eating dogs and cats and other pets that's OK - but only
if we ban the killing of cows, chicken, and pigs, too.

It sure raises some issues.

Cattle typically get it with a stun gun and are bled out.

Chickens tend to be electrocuted.

I'd sooner eat my boot than kill a dog.

Very inconsistent, isn't it.

If I were a cow I'd move to India.

I think that many Americans would be uncomfortable with dogs being raised for
meat, but the fact is, many unwanted dogs are killed because no one wants them.
I don't see any point in forbidding persons from eating *those* dogs.

I'm pretty open-minded when it comes to food (as long as it doesn't
contain artificial ingredients or overly processed - I AM anal about
those things), but I must admit that I'm not at all keen on the idea
of eating carnivorous mammals. Knowing what their diet is - no
thanks...

This is true, sadly.

I guess I generally do not either.

I just think it's a tragedy to see them killed.

Yes.

I am 100% in agreement with you on that.

Let's hear it for Bob Barker.

A visionary in the movement.

I find the idea of *me* eating a carnivore rather revolting, and I'm very
glad that my wife does too, but if others want to eat them, I'm content to
let them, as long as they keep it the Hell away from me.

So how much of your dental intention do you find "revolting"?

Bob Barker kind of creeps me out because he is too similar in both appearance
and mannerisms to my father, though he's probably a nicer person than my father
was.

Not having a clue what you meant by "dental intention," I Googled the phrase.
No clarification was apparent.

I'm very sorry you have that association.

He has done some majorly cool things in terms of ending whale slaughter
by the Japanese.

The guy is a big time animal rights hero.

OK fine.

You have a set of teeth.

They are intended to do certain things.

Do you deny the intent of your canines and incisors in favor of your
grinding molars?

What was your mouth built to consume and tear down?

I agree, also in not doing everything possible to keep their pets safe. I
saw a large Siamese cat dead in the middle of Church Street in my town on
Thursday, obviously run over by a car who didn't stop. I pulled over to at
least get it out of the street, but a man in a truck coming from the other
direction stopped and removed it. I really despise owners who allow their
pets to be put in that kind of danger, and It's not a rare sight, sadly.

Yeah. I took my friend home yesterday and couldn't believe how many cats I
saw out there running across the street! And it's a very busy street. She
said they are always out there.

A stun gun and electrocution are probably really efficient but not real practical for at-home killing. I wouldn't want to kill any animal if I can help it. I guess it all depends on how hungry I get.

My neighbor used to get stinking drunk and walk her dog. One night the dog was outside by itself and got hit by a car. Another neighbor retrieved the dog and took it up to her apartment. She was surprised to see the dog was outside and told the guy to put him in the corner of the living room cause he was sleeping. "Lady, this dog is not sleeping, he's dead. It's never going to wake up!" The guy owns a dog that everybody loves and it was to his credit to take that broken dog to it's home.

That must have been really weird the next morning when she awoke from her drunken stupor and found that dog dead in the corner.

They are a bloomin' pest though. Roaming around the roads and streets,
doing what cows do .... in big piles everywhere ... They are a danger to
traffic but given the mass of cars, rickshaws, autorickshaws, bikes, animals
pulling carts etc etc on the roads and the rubbish drivers etc ... They seem
to get by.
They must be blessed!

In Yulin, China the people enjoy dog. They think Americans are crazy
to eat their Cows. A Cow is strong enough to plow a garden. Why would
you destroy your farming implement? Here's a look at the Yulin
Festival:

They are sacred, which is why they don't eat them, so they are not going to
send them to you to eat.

And a fly repellent!

No kidding. Saw a documentary about how small village Indians were
dupped into an American style milk co-op. Sell all yer cow's milk
output to central processing point and reap the profits. Problem was,
the co-op hadda collect all the rented cattle to one spot to milk them
and this left no living cows in the village. No cows, no dung. No
dung, no fuel.

The most surprising thing learned, the village folk would take the
dung and spread it on their homes and patios, like a plaster, and the
dung actually cut down on the severe fly problem. When the
dung/plaster dried, it actually repelled flies. Go figure.

The village folk got their cows back, got their fuel and fly repellent
back, and told the co-op to take fly-ing leap.

I have seen them even when I lived there, but I see from your link that they
serve veggies burgers. I don't know about now.

Btw did I see someone had written about cows being needed for dung, milk
etc??

Good luck with getting milk. Bulls are not allowed to run around in the
road with the cows ... the cows are not owned they just run free.

As for dung, you can pick it up off the pavement and road .. anywhere

Wow.

WESTERN PET CENTER - I'm positive you've heard stories about this place,
as every animal rights group I contacted had, although no one ever did
much of anything. I know for an absolute fact that this place shaves
puppies and sells them to restaurant chefs from a back entrance easily
accessible thru an alley next to the store. I don't know if they do this
any longer but I witnessed them displaying puppies in a foldaway pen in
the parking lot after hours (they close at 7 but the pen would still be
up as late as 9PM - never stayed around long enough to see when they
took it down) and chefs (dressed in cooking outfits) came and bought
shaved Chows. I've seen a lot of other very weird and incriminating
stuff here as well. the owner is either owner of Mt. High Ranch (Phelan)
or Hans Farm (Little Rock). Both are dog farms, off the 138, their signs
(in Korean) are easily seen from highway. Mt. High is a "goat ranch".
they raise dogs and goats, and slaughter them on premises. They appear
to be a retreat and offer a menu on the door of the main building
(similar to a lodge office. For awhile there was a Korean dogmeat
restaurant very nearby, even picturing a dog on their sign. Hans Farm
masquerades as a fruit farm but neighbors say that they never harvest
their tiny grove of fruit. They have kennels on premises with about 200
dogs and slaughter them there (again, neighbors have heard the killings,
and one found a dog head in his yard. The Koreans told his 8 year old
son that they eat the dogs.

One of the neighbors also told me that his friend works with a humane
society in the area that actually did a raid and found a refrigerator
full of dogmeat and a menu posted on the refrigerator with prices. For
some reason that I no longer recall, they couldn't bust them,

They offer weekend bbqs in the summer and Korean families are bussed
there for picnics. If memory serves me, these tours are arranged through
Big Bear Farms and HWA (I believe Big Bear has a storefront on Western -
if not, Vermont). They advertise the picnics in the Korean newspapers.
Besides the main kennels, there are assorted manmade kennel cages
alongside the driveway/road that veers left once you drive in. The
reason I know about these two farms is that I was doing my own
investigation for several years and finally interested frank Snepp from
(then) Ch. 9 News to do a feature. He had a Korean assistant named Julie
who helped me considerably with translations and information. Her uncle
told her that all the dogmeat used in L.A.'s Koreatown came from a farm
in the desert, near Victorville. I went out there and drove all around
for about 7 hours until I found Mt. High. Their sign said they sold
"health broth made from domestic animals." This sign was later destroyed
by someone who obviously knew what it meant and posted a note on their
handiwork indicating so.

Little Rock is not really a town but a small group of houses (maybe 30),
and from interviewing neighbors over a period of a few weeks, I can
safely say that most, if not all of the folks I spoke to are druggies
and fugitives from the law. I went to city hall and looked up property
owners there and none of the street signs match the real addresses
registered! Here is information on the bussed picnic tours (from the
Korean newspaper):

This is some old info I had on Mt. High. It may have changed owners

Your problem is that you're not getting drunk enough. Consume enough
alcohol and your dogs will be scampering about in the moorlands under
the light of the new moon.

The lady sold her condo years ago. The weird part is nobody's living in
the unit. That's like tossing away $1600/month. You're talking over
$40,000 in income down the drain. Hopefully, she never got another dog
or she moved to a place that's far from traffic.

The Hawaiians thought that Captain Cook was a God. That didn't turn out
too good for Cook but what the heck, I'm willing to give it a go. Hee hee.
