Dog meat banned at Yulin Festival...but for how long?

[Catherine]

If this is true it is the big break that is needed. The main sale of dog meat would be stopped. There will still be some slaughter elsewhere, but the open killing and eating in the big market would be stopped.

I think once the festival has been "broken" it will never go back to what it was. Too many people in China and in the world are against it.

Once the festival dates pass and the main slaughter does not take place then we will know that there is victory. Until then we need to keep the pressure on.

If Yulin is ended then it will effect the whole practice of eating dog meat. I am cautiously optimistic.
