Yeah I think its more the fact that most people have been emotionally connected to a dog before that makes it seem wrong, as well as they are considered part of the family. Unlike pigs, chickens, etc.

I think the meat is probably less nutritious then typical meats since its a carnivore and thus a tropic level down and I think its hard to deny man has had a special symbiotic bond with the dog that we haven't had with other animals. For these reasons I wouldn't eat it. At the same time though dogs are still animals and if the above two reasons don't hold sway with a particular person I wouldn't hold it against them

I was once bitten by a dog...
A good friend of mine had 2 pet pigs, who were way more adorable than any dog I've met.

However... I still wouldn't mind eating any of them

But I think you've got a point. Dogowners and related might be biased - aswell as I am, being bitten and all...

I don't eat any animal products so yeah dog meat is pretty much the same to me as all other animal eat. If your gonna eat a cow or eat cheese for that matter, go ahead and eat a dog too?? Can't say I agree with your decision but I think it's silly that people get mad about it but then go and eat pigs which are smarter animals in the first place.(and cute too!)

no i wouldnt eat a dog, and i would judge people who do so negatively so sorry if you're offended but i was raised not to bite into snoopy


The dogs they use are not snoopy. They are not usually domesticated ( usually) people and dogs have had this relationship for as long as humans can remember food , pet , protection and companion. Humans and dogs are intertwined humans feed the animals sometimes they feed us.


Don't take me so literally when I refer to snoopy

Dogs bred for being pets and food are different.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

oh crap. sounds like you never had meat of an animal that lived a really good life.




you have NO clue how much better it is. absolutely no comparison at all. it is so ridiculously good. omfg.. a steak will literally melt in your mouth. it's the best meat i've ever eaten yet, by far. i'm sure it compares to kobe beef.

I personally wouldn't eat dog but It doesn't bother me to know that people do. I just have to assume that those that do simply aren't applying the same value system to them that I am.

I don't see a difference between dogs and any other animals when it comes to slaughtering, cooking and eating them.

so you think its any more or less ok to eat cows or pigs just because they are less cute? lol

No. It isn't necessarily because dogs are "cute", but more to the fact that humans have kept them as pets for thousands of years for their obedience and loyalty. Cattle and live stock have always been a food source and not pets. I do have a biased viewpoint being that my mother is a veterinarian and I work in an animal hospital myself, but our society accepts cats and dogs as companions and not food. Thankfully, our world is changing and people are stopping these old traditions.


So... because ancient traditions says cattle are for making milk and food... And the dogs are for companionship aswell as help with the livestock. We still see cows as meat/milk only - and dogs as what... companions? What happened to the whole idea of them actually helping out with getting the job done? Oh, right... The world changed... Well, so did the modern perception of the role of animals.

You should probably reread your post, as it seems like you want to disagree with me, yet you are agreeing with me.

If you don't agree you are discriminating between the value of animals. Some people argue that dogs are cuter, more loyal or smarter then other animals. However there is no rigorous evidence to prove that they are. Also even if we assume dogs are cuter, more loyal and smarter then other animals it feels like that it is a very arbitrary standard to discriminate over these values. Should we have a measure of cuteness/intelligence/loyalty and consume whatever animal that is lower than an arbitrary limit?


Scientifically, pigs are smarter than dogs and there is rigorous evidence to prove it.

If you find a bunny that was a kids pet, the meat is sooooo good, the meat is so tender it just falls off the bone.

I'm sure if my childhood pet was a pig I would have a hard time eating pork, I don't condone people for eating dog meat, but I would never try it, because I would never people to look at my dog agian.

Nothing wrong with eating dog meat in my opinion, just like any other meat. I'd try some any day.

Many people made a mistake by thinking that people that eat dog meat eat their own dog. No, its not true. I've raised several dogs in my life and I love them very much and ofc I don't eat them -_-.

Nowadays, there are dog farm just like chicken or cow. Its fine to eat dog meat, dog meat is high in protein and quite delicious. But dog meat is no way a mainstream meat like chicken, pork or cow. In Vietnam eating dog meat is popular but we nearly never eat it at home. Its more like a restaurant meat. Also, women don't eat dog, dog meat actually quite smelly in a way that scare women from eating them.

I myself eat dog meat like once every 2 months or so. Dog meat + rice wine are da best

Its delicious!

I don't care how its prepared, I don't care what animal it is, I will eat it at least once


and I've eaten dog twice...not a single fuck was given


As for the morals...we are omnivores, basically we're designed to eat anything in a survival situation...and if you are like 'awwwww that animals cute' in a survival situation then you deserve to die....the only difference between survival and eating normally is that we can 'choose' different foods to eat...but it's less morals and people just thinking 'awww but they're so cute'

I wouldn't do it, but I don't mind that other people would.

I like dogs too much to eat one, but I understand that there are people who don't feel the same way. As long as they don't try to eat MY dog, I don't have a problem with it :D
