{WARNING: cruelty info} This will hurt some people to read, however, it's important to realize just how cruel the industry is in China (and elsewhere): they skin dogs while they are still alive so that there is less damage to the coat/fur. After the dog is skinned (meaning, the entire coat is ripped from their body) - it is tossed into a pile and left there...whether dead or alive. Many are still alive . There is video footage of this act, but I don't advise searching for it unless you think you're truly able to live w/ the memory.

Thanks for posting this, Jim.
This makes me so sad!! I am NOT going to look for the video, I'm just not strong enough. I don't understand how people can do such a thing. Same goes with the animals that we eat...I really need to become vegetarian...
