Wow!! I had no idea that in the USA, dog meat was a delicasy! Even my Mother, who grew up in the great depression, did not eat dog meat, and meat of any kind and food was scarce. They did eat alot of beans and eggs. That gives a new meaning to the phrase "puppy mill". I guess in other countries, they would be called ranchers.

This is becoming a kind of a gruesome thread.

I do have a Yorkie and I love her very much. But I grew up around chickens, cows, pigs, horses and such. I learned at a very young age where meat comes from and have done the same when it comes to dog.

Again, I'm not asking anyone to agree with me, just open up your minds a little and understand things aren't so cut and dry and tied up neatly with a bow.

Most of our Yorkies are tied up neatly with a bow. They are our babies. Our loves. Our reason for joining this forum. The thought of considering them as a meal is so far beyond my thought process. I can't even go there. It is reprehensible to me. Sorry.

I have found it hard to even post on this topic at all, I have started to but I just can't find the words that wont get me banned I mean Hello this is a forum full of dog lovers!

I was going to say that Meat sure coast a lot more than beans, rice, cheese, pasta, eggs. You dont need a lot of MONEY to shop for other alternatives to meat. I am a vegetarian and I can tell you,their is other way's to get your protein if you can't afford the USDA regulated meat that your butcher/ store is supposed to provide for you to purchase here in the USA. I would be concerned for the health of my child and myself if some butcher offered me free meat of any kind, let alone cat or dog. How do you know if they are disease free especially sense it's most likely would be stray animals that he is offering

Also just because it's fine in other countries doesn't mean I have to agree that "Hay its just an animal so their for it could be diner to night! " No thank you! I do not need my mind broaden on this subject. As I said before I am a vegetarian but I don't come on here posting threads to broaden meat eaters minds on turning vegetarian.

I think these sites are a hoax....I remember a while back that there was a site called Manbeef that claimed to be selling human meat! The wording was EXACTLY the same as above....and a lot of people were convinced it was a real site until it the guys who started it admitted it was a hoax and closed it down. If you go onto Snopes it says all about it.

I was thinking that too..but didnt want to say. Meat is more expensive than rice, etc. I'm a veg. too and buy alternate meat, or 'fake' meat and i dont find it expensive at all. I know plenty of meats that can be more expensive to buy but again i didn't want to say it...and i'd rather keep my mouth shut before i said something bad lol

This is becoming a kind of a gruesome thread.
It is, to most of us, just what you say. A gruesome thread.

I would no way consider going to a Hindu board and talking about the merits of eating beef and pork. It would be repugnant to them. What would be the point? Therein is the rub, for me. What is the point? Being on a dog forum, advocating the practice of eating dog. Why do such?

If you want to and do eat dog...why torture others about it? That's the whole point. Why not go somewhere to post that would embrace you with this 'custom'...why come to a Yorkie forum and advocate the eating of Yorkies? They are, after all, dogs. How are we to know if you would ever consider your Yorkie as a meal, since you have such a cavalier attitude about eating dog? So if you got in a bind financially and couldn't afford to feed you kids, would you....???....consider it? This is the wrong place for advocation of such and I simply cannot understand why you cannot understand that. It isn't about culture at all, even though you state that it is. It is about your choice of forums for such statements. What do you expect to find here as far as a response?

What do you hope to accomplish with this? Exactly what were your expectations when you posted?

Omg These sites are a hoax!!!!

I really realy think these sites about dog and cat meat are a hoax....there was once a site called manbeef that claimed to sell human meat products....the guys who started the site admitted it was a hoax and closed them down coz loads of people thought it was a genuine site.....if u go onto snopes its on there. The wording on that site was EXACTLY the same as the wording on the dog and cat ones....about doing criminal background checks etc. It's a very disturbing subject to make a joke site about though....especially as so many people are so passionate about their dogs and cats.

Hey...this is ludicrous! What you might say...if it is from your heart....could not be bad. Do you find this to be weird and way out there? I think it is and that it is just a ploy to bring chaos and upset to everyone here. It is ridiculous and obscene that his person has posted this on this particular forum.

This isn't about culture. It is about stirring the pot. It is about disrespect. It is about an ulterior motive and an agenda.

I think it should be taken elsewhere. I have no problem saying so. It's a recognition factor. I see. I comprehend. It is repuslive.

It's definetly out there, i would never in a million years think about eating dog. You know, one day when i was eating dinner with my family somehow the conversation shifted to my dogs and my dad said if he were starving he would eat my dogs. He was in the vietnam war and had to eat snake, all kinds of things. Anyway my brother agreed with him but they were doing it to bother me but still i was so mad, and hurt. Even if i were starving i wouldn't eat my dogs, cause they are my family and you dont eat your family. That is so weird to even THINK about. I mean there's so many things on this earth to eat, why dog?? And i know people that eat it in china and other countries eat it as a delicacy and its very expensive there so they are not starving. They just love to eat it. I really do think they came here just to start trouble, this is a dog forum. Some people

LOL ! MAN Beef ? Sounds more like a porno site than food.

I too think someone is stirring the pot just to get people riled up - I can't say what I really want to say... but let's assume that many of us are keeping silent due to some pretty bold statements.

Ok... I HAVE to say this. I know many people who grew up on farms etc. NOT ONE of them would ever consider this. End of statement.

You live in Salt Lake City ? I would think what you're claiming to eat is ILLEGAL not to mention morally wrong.

Since you only posted in this thread I have to agree with everyone........why ??? You have 6 posts only... all in this ONE Controversial thread - That says to me you want to get people riled up.

PS - great job to the moderators. Nice to see things are being watched before something really disgusting is posted again.
