While I agree it is disconcerting to think of anyone choosing to eat dog. I think the thought is ingrained in my brain because here we have domesticated our dogs and consider them pets/loved ones.
However, in all fairness, I must consider the above portion of Tobi's quote.
I know there are cultures that will starve before they will kill and eat a cow, as these are highly regarded animals in their culture. Yet we raise [beef] cattle specifically for butchering. A practice I think they would find appalling.
So i must say I'm not really sure what to think on the subject.
