The woman yelling is a local animal lover begging the men to stop and let her save the dog. The men laugh at her and tell her to go away as they truss and hogtie the terrified dog in the middle of the street. The dog is still alive and conscious, but silent because his mouth is bound tightly shut to prevent him screaming in terror or pain. You can see the butcher pick up a knife. The stainless steel bowl is to collect the dog’s blood as it pumps out after he’s stabbed. Dog eaters use slaughtered dog’s blood for cooking or revolting blood puddings.

Eating blood from untested animals is highly dangerous. Dogs have many internal parasites which can be transmittable to humans via eating contaminated blood. As if a revenge from the grave, we can only hope dog eaters contract parasite illnesses from the very dogs which they brutally slaughter.

This video demonstrates a Vietnamese animal lover trying her best to prevent the men torturing and stabbing the dog for meat. Vietnam’s dog meat trade is very dangerous! This lady was threatened and her safety put at risk for standing up to these men. She was left fearful the butcher men would come to her house, because this took place in the street outside her house. They know she’s an animal lover which leaves her in a vulnerable situation. Thank you to this brave lady for being a voice for this poor dog.

Fight Dog Meat will continue to bring you reports from dog and cat meat countries and the wonderful work their rescuers are doing despite no animal protection laws. Turning away or sitting quietly does not end the trade. We’ll keep exposing what is taking place to these animals. We’re helping local volunteers have a louder voice on a world platform. Ultimately it’s the voice of the country’s own people whom their government will eventually be forced to listen to, for positive change for animals.

Thank you for reading,
