I love dogs and cats even if soi dogs <deleted> me off once in a while I still love small and big animals enough not to mistreat them. I am sad to see all you guys here posting these disgusting pictures of dogs as meat... cruel cruel cruel Honest question do you eat animals at all? if yes why do you love some animals and eat others, surely you have no feelings for the ones you eat? Nothing special about dogs and cats, domestic/livestock is just an artificial man made difference. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIC Cats and dogs that aren't someone's pet are livestock, just like cows, pics or rabbits. And the inhumane treatment they get before they get killed.

bendejo Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 A lot of people in the industrialized world seem to think that in countries where the people eat things that Occidentals don't it is because poverty. E.g. I heard some media commentator remark about the theory that Covid came from people eating bats, saying that if it wasn't for poverty people wouldn't have to eat bats. Pretty simple-minded assumption IMO. A counter to this in Chinese cooking there is a dish called (loose translation here) of "Chicken for the King": the main ingredient is chicken gizzards, it is "for the King" because it is a wealthy man who can afford to have a sufficient number of chickens killed to make a dish of the gizzards. Well, that's what I read . . . I saw grilled dog being sold at street stalls in Cambodia, and detected a certain sense of embarrassment in the vendors in having an Occidental (me) catching them selling dog meat.

Popular Post The Old Bull Posted August 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2022 There is a fellow that comes through the village trading plastic buckets for dogs. The dogs go to Vietnam. The only time Thai customs seize them is if a bunch of doo gooders come from Bangkok, and offer to feed them, as they don't want to be stuck with a hundred mangy dogs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept that some people are genuinely concerned but for others it's just cash cow, as a previous poster pointed out "follow the money" My feelings exactly, ever see the vehicles they ride around in, all very expensive Toyota Highlanders, and Misubushi Pajeros. Here is a read oit of their "Expenses" It appears they are worth approx $5,000,000.00 accoerding to Charity Navigator.com. https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/271600444 Soi Dog USA reported its three largest programs on its FY 2019 Form 990 as: **Combat and Eliminate Dog Meat Trade $2,000,799 Spent in most recent FY 45% Percent of program expenses **Support Ongoing Animal Welfare Efforts in Thailand $1,822,971 Spent in most recent FY 41% Percent of program expenses **Advanced Medical Treatment Facilities $500,000 Spent in most recent FY 11% Percent of program expenses 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screaming Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I have tried dog meat in Vietnam and found it to be tasty. It really is all about how it is prepared. The dog meat I had was barbecued on coals so it had a little bit of smoked flavor. The Thais could supplement their diet with dog meat rather than eat un-nutritious rice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you it can be tasty if cooked correctly. 0ne family always pay 100 -200 baht per dog depending on size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussienam Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 It's the inhumane way dogs are killed that disturbs me. I've seen the dogs stuffed alive inside baskets and cages all twisted and with broken limbs panting and suffering in Vietnam. Seen the videos from China of dogs getting beaten first inside sacks, then been boiled alive, their fur and skin pulled off when they are still alive, picked up by hooks and into hot oil vats and fried alive with grinning sick twisted psycho men. A lot of dogs in countries that allow dog meat consumption are pets that are stolen - already plump and disease free. I understand the factory farming of animals and the methods of slaughter in third world places is also often very cruel, but with dogs on open market it is cultural to scare and torture them to death in order for the meat to allegedly taste sweeter from the adrenaline. Soi dog problems can be addressed with humane eradication, ongoing neutering programs. I am glad Thailand has some basic animal welfare laws that at least curb the sickos from getting off and profiting on torturing animals. Glad this place isn't China.

I am led to believe this is part of their buddhist beliefs. Reincarnation in the hope they will come back as a better (richer?) person. As long as people believe this the problem won't go away. The woman who does that around our village is rumoured to have gone to see a monk over some bad karma, and was told to do the feeding as an act for merit. Irritating as it does just increase numbers and packs hang around where she drops the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
