They're eating the dogs and cats
They're eating the dogs said Trump when he was with Harris in the debate. They tried mocking him in memes but it instead went viral as it was true that illegal aliens come due to open borders into America and Europe and they're eating animals like they do in other countries, it's a no brainer pun intended. 30/ Turbo lied again yet again in my Discord Server, I didn't delete Turbo's messages, that is yet another reason why Turbo should be demoted for the Oatmeal Fake news.
While having a pleasant conversation with my dear brother Joseph, I remembered that Europeans also enjoy dog meat.😄
In some parts of Switzerland, where there is a long history, dogs and cats are cooked and enjoyed.
Wenn Hunde im Kochtopf landen
Die Ostschweizer lieben Hundefleisch. Die Tieraktivistin Edith Zellweger will deshalb den Verzehr von Hunde-und Katzenfleisch in der Schweiz verbieten. Vor allem im St. Galler Rheintal sollen Bauern Hunde und Katzen essen. Realität oder ein Mythos?
Für die aktive Tierschutzgruppe Salez (ATS) von Edith Zellweger ist es klar: Haustiere werden im Rheintal und dem Appenzellerland oftmals verspiesen. «Hunderte Menschen in den ländlichen Gebieten essen Hunde und Katzen», ist sie überzeugt.
Mit einer Petition wollen die Tierschützer deshalb den Verzehr von Hunden und Katzen gesetzlich verbieten. In Deutschland und Österreich gibt es bereits ein solches Verbot.
Auf Spurensuche
Im St. Galler Rheintal treffen wir auf unserer Recherche allerdings keine Menschen, die Hunde schlachten und essen. Früher hätte es dies aber noch häufig gegeben. Ein Landwirt aus Gams: «Bis vor 20 Jahren habe ich täglich Hundefleisch gegessen. Geräuchert war das ein Genuss.»
It surprised and delighted me that the people of beautiful Switzerland, where my friend @zuerich lives and who always helps and supports me, enjoy cooking dogs and cats!😄
The hardest working shepherds and farmers in Switzerland eat dog and cat cooking to stay healthy. Dog and cat meat is good for human health because it has less cholesterol than cow, sheep, pork, and horse meat.
«Bei uns kommt noch Katze auf den Teller»
«Heute schmecken Katzen nach Dosenfutter»
Fogliani selber isst keine Katzen mehr. Der Grund: Heutige Hauskatzen seien ungeniessbar, weil sich der Geschmack vom Dosenfutter im Fleisch festsetzt. Aber «ich weiss, dass frisches Katzenfleisch fantastisch schmeckt.»
Bald wird sich der Bundesrat mit dem Thema beschäftigen müssen. Dass in der Schweiz nur der Handel mit Haustierfleisch verboten ist, nicht aber, sie zu essen, will Lukas Reimann (31) jetzt ändern. Im März reicht er eine Interpellation zum Verzehr von Hunde- und Katzenfleisch ein. Der SVP-Nationalrat will vom Bundesrat wissen, wie verbreitet der Brauch ist, wie die Tiere geschlachtet werden und wie sich der Bundesrat zu einem generellen Verbot des Verzehrs stellt. «Es ist krank, Hunde und Katzen zu essen», macht der ehemalige Hundehalter klar. Der Gedanke erfülle ihn «mit Wut und Ekel».
@zuerich is fluent in German and Spanish, so he will be able to read these articles well.😊
For centuries, some parts of Switzerland have enjoyed eating dog and cat dishes. They say that dog and cat dishes are good for your health. I definitely agree with their claims!😃
Various cuts of dog meat
Dog meat is the flesh and other edible parts derived from dogs. Historically human consumption of dog meat has been recorded in many parts of the world.[4]
In the 21st century dog meat is consumed to a limited extent in Korea, China,[5] Indonesia, Nigeria,[6] Switzerland,[7] Vietnam,[8] and India;[9] it is eaten or is legal to be eaten in other countries throughout the world. Some cultures view the consumption of dog meat as part of their traditional, ritualistic, or day-to-day cuisine, and other cultures consider consumption of dog meat a taboo, even where it had been consumed in the past. Opinions also vary drastically across different regions within different countries.[10][11] It was estimated in 2014 that worldwide, 27 million dogs are eaten each year by humans.[12]
Dog meat dishes are especially common in Asia, Africa, the New World, and Oceania!
What Countries Eat Dogs in 2024?
Dog meat consumption in Asia
Asia is the continent on which the consumption of dog meat is most widespread, with as many as 30 million dogs killed for human consumption each year according to estimates by the Humane Society International. This estimate includes many family pets, which are often illegally stolen from their homes and taken to be slaughtered. The consumption of dog meat is said to be most common in China, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Nagaland region in India, but it is not considered widespread in any of these locations. Moreover, the practice is becoming less popular in many countries, where younger generations are more likely to regard dogs and cats as companions rather than cuisine.
China is the biggest consumer of dog meat globally, consuming an estimated 10 million dogs (and four million cats) per year. Dog meat has been a tradition in China for thousands of years and is still eaten in many regions of the country. The best known of these regions among westerners is Yulin, which holds a dog meat festival every year. Yulin's annual Lychee and Dog Meat Festival is widely protested and is increasingly controversial outside of China. In 2020, the cities of Shenzhen and Zhuhai became the first and second cities in mainland China to outlaw the consumption of dog and cat meat, and China's Ministry of Agriculture has changed the classification of dogs and cats from livestock to companion animals.
Another well-known country for eating dogs is Vietnam, the second-largest consumer of dog meat in the world, where dog is a dietary staple. The Vietnamese use almost every part of the dog in stews and soups and serve the meat spiced on a stick. Many believe that dog meat has medicinal properties and brings good fortune. The Vietnamese dog meat trade processes an estimated five million dogs per year (far more per capita than China), which has resulted in an illegal import market for dogs, which are imported from neighboring countries such as Cambodia (where dogs are also eaten), Laos, and Thailand. Dog meat is also an issue in Indonesia, where less than 5% of the population consumes it, but both pets and stray street dogs are routinely abducted and slaughtered. The dog meat trade in Indonesia is cited as particularly dangerous because rabies is quite prevalent in the country, and the locations and methods used to slaughter and sell the meat are often far from sanitary. Dog meat is also found in the Philippines, where it is the main ingredient in asocena.
Didn't my brother Joseph know that the Vietnamese enjoy cooking dog meat?
Dog meat dishes are so delicious that even American and European tourists visiting East Asia try them.😄
They said they could not forget the taste of dog meat dishes. They told me that they would secretly cook and eat dog meat dishes when they returned home.
On the other hand, Taiwan became the first Asian country to outlaw the consumption of cat and dog meat, as well as the sale of cats and dogs for the purpose of consumption, in 2017. Violators face significant fines, public shaming, and possible prison time. Similarly, the slaughter of cats and dogs, as well as the sale of their meat, has been illegal in Hong Kong for decades. However, the consumption of such meat has not yet been banned.
Dog meat is reportedly consumed in notoriously secretive North Korea, as well as Timor-Leste and Uzbekistan. It was once common in South Korea, where it is the key ingredient in dishes such as Gaegogi (also the general term for dog meat), Bosintang, Gae Suyuk, and the medicinal drink Gaesoju, but its popularity has plummeted in recent years. Humane Society International cites a Korea Times statement that nearly 40% of South Korean restaurants serving dog meat have closed in the past decade, and a 2020 poll by Nielsen and HSI revealed that 84% of South Koreans polled do not eat dog meat and 60% of people would support a ban on it. In January 2024, the South Korean government unanimously passed a ban on dog meat sale, dog meat consumption, and the slaughter of dogs for consumption purposes. The law is scheduled to go into effect in 2027.
Dog meat consumption throughout the rest of the world
Africa
Dog meat is consumed for ritual and cultural purposes in approximately 20 African countries. Burkina Faso sees dog meat as a cultural luxury and a delicacy—not to be served at restaurants but as a special meal to look forward to among families. The history of dog meat in Burkina Faso centers around family, friendship, and person-to-person bonding. Dog meat is also a delicacy in Ghana (where cat meat is inexplicably called "Joseph") and is often eaten as a bonding meal between the people of the Frafra and Dagaaba tribes. Dog meat is also consumed in other countries including Liberia, Central African Republic, parts of Nigeria (where some believe the meat has the power to cure malaria or boost libido), Cameroon, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, as in Indonesia, the consumption of dog meat carries with it a non-trivial risk of disease, including rabies in Ghana and Nigeria and Ebola in Liberia.
Europe
Consuming dog meat is generally taboo in Europe; however, as of 2014, around 3% of people in Switzerland (particularly in rural areas) eat dog meat in the form of jerky or traditional sausages. Laws in the U.K. forbid the sale of dog meat, but appear to allow for the killing and consumption of dog meat as long as the animal is owned by the killer/consumer and is killed humanely.
The Americas
Eating dogs is widely considered taboo in the United States. Technically, the U.S. lacks a national law banning the consumption of dogs and cats—however, the Dog and Cat Meat Trade Prohibition Act of 2018 prohibited the "transportation, delivery, possession, and slaughter of dogs and cats for human consumption," which effectively dismantled any non-clandestine business built around the practice. The act does include an exception for Native American rituals, as certain tribes have either a history or a tradition of consuming dog meat. The Kickapoo tribe residing in modern-day Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas has several traditional recipes involving dog meat, and both the Sioux and Cheyenne are known to have consumed the meat of domestic dogs, but not wild canines. Dog meat is also legal in Canada, though the meat must come from a licensed dog meat processing plant—none of which appear to exist. The sale of dog meat is prohibited in Mexico, though it is known that the Aztecs raised dogs for food.
Oceania
Only one of Australia's 16 states and territories—South Australia—has explicitly outlawed the slaughter and consumption of both cats and dogs. However, the sale of cat and dog meat is prohibited across the entire country.
In East Asian medicine, dog meat dishes are said to be low in cholesterol, easy to digest, and especially good for treating stroke, heart disease, and diabetes by unclogging blood vessels.
Most of all, The reason Asians have lower rates of heart disease than Americans is because they eat dog meat.
Seeing Americans' tendency to criticize the culture of enjoying dog meat, I wanted Americans to know that dog meat helps treat heart disease and obesity, which are the two most common diseases that plague Americans!
It’s totally legal to eat cats and dogs in Canada
Of all the things that are illegal to eat in Canada, I’m going to guess you assumed that “pets” was top of the list. But not so fast; while Canada has any number of laws governing the eating of cows and pigs, our laws have nothing whatsoever to say about eating dogs and cats. Thus, it’s technically entirely legal.
Watch this Everything Should Be Better video or read the transcript below to learn more.
Eating dogs and cats became illegal in the United States in 2018 thanks to a bipartisan Congressional bill. China has started clamping on the eating of cats and dogs, at least in its major cities.
But Canada? No laws whatsoever against eating pets. Technically, any Canadian right now can go adopt a schnauzer, turn him into stew and they won’t even get a ticket.
Fortunately, we don’t have a law against eating dogs for the same reason we don’t have a law against dogs joining a professional basketball team: It’s because neither scenario ever happens. But, that’s also what we once thought about laws banning oral sex with pets, and Canada did feel the need to ban that in 2019.
I believe Canadians are smart enough to cook and eat dog and cat !😄
I ate a little dog meat as medicine for my health. I can confidently tell my beloved elder brothers Steve and @valued-customer that dog meat definitely improved my health!😉
I would like to recommend dog meat to Steve and @valued-customer because it is good for the heart disease that Americans suffer from the most!
I have a hard time understanding the behavior of people who oppose eating dogs and cats. Then why do we eat cows, horses, sheep, goats, and pigs? I feel that the argument of people who say that we should not eat dogs and cats and only eat cows, sheep, goats, horses, and pigs is unfair. Cows, sheep, goats, horses, and pigs are equal creatures who fear death and feel pain just like dogs and cats.
I'm worried that my claims have offended Steve and @valued-customer.
In particular, @valued-customer loves his dog named Bear very much!😂
However, God told Noah that he could eat all living things freely!
So, Since prehistoric times, humans have eaten all living creatures, including dogs and cats.
So, I approve of the Swiss and Canadians freely cooking and eating dogs and cats!!
I believe that all humans have the right to eat whatever they want. Of course I am against cannibalism!😂
I hope Steve and @valued-customer don't get offended by my awkward and rude English sentences!
By the way, I can confidently tell Steve and @valued-customer that dog meat is good for treating heart disease.
Because my health improved after I ate dog meat!😊
I believe that human life is more precious than dog and cat life!
I hope their health and long life!
😂 I have never heard or seen that anybody in Switzerland consumes cats or dogs. Until the late 19th century Switzerland was a very poor country (landlocked, backward, difficult terrain, little transport possibilities, thousands of dialects). So I can imagine that - facing famine - people here had no problem with eating cats or dogs.
Guten tag, Dear @zuerich !
I wonder if you felt uncomfortable reading my awkward English sentences!😂
You can read that German, since you know German well. I understand that in the Swiss countryside, people have been raising and eating dogs and cats for centuries!
I am in favor of the Swiss habit of eating dogs and cats as food!😄
Dogs and cats are animals that humans can eat, like cows, horses, pigs, sheep, and goats!
I find it rude of the British, French and Germans to ridicule the Swiss custom of eating dogs and cats!😅
I believe that Swiss people have the freedom to eat dogs and cats freely.
Danke!

Bear was an exceptional animal, and far beyond my capacity to keep. He eventually attacked a turkey by breaking out of the truck and forced me to find him a new home. Today I have care of my neighbor Marty's cat until Marty returns from the hospital, and Marty isn't coming back. Anyone that tries to eat Marty's cat will have to climb over my dead body to get the cat's. I take my obligations to my friends and neighbors very seriously, and taking care of it means to keep the cat from being eaten, at the very least.
Thanks!
