I guess this is how certain groups of people in India feel when they see slaughtered cows. |

we do not eat dogs in Iceland.. exept for hotdogs.. but I've heard that Labradors are quite tasty, wouldn't mind tasting a dog, at least once, I have a rule that I live by, don't judge until you've tried, so I'm willing to try everything once (with a very few exeptions)
but it still is a very emotional picture.. |

as I sit here with my 2 Labs, the whole family is having the expected reaction but I think this is a great picture. |

Wow. I don't even like dogs and I found this disturbing. Still, I'm glad you posted it. It's thought provoking as well as emotional. |

I agree. To me, this is gross and disgusting, and quite honestly, sad. But to them it is normal, everyday life. We have practices that other cultures view differently too also. Just be glad that you don't live there I guess! |

This is awful, espcially since one of the dogs in the cage looks uncannily like my German Shepherd! And I DO make a distiction between my dog and a cow or a pig. Dogs bond to people and offer unconditional love, protection, and loyalty. Killing them for any reason is abhorrent. What a way to reward these traits - ones we humans should nurture!
Have to go and kiss my Shiloh now.... |

Wow, this one conjures up some emotion doesn't it.
Why is it we aren't as emotionally attached to the lobsters in the tank at the restaurant, or the cows in the field? (I am attached to the cows in the field, but I still eat them). I̢۪m not a big fan of the food chain in all its forms. Every life is precious, but the food chain just seems to diminish the value. This image is going to stay with me for a while now.
:(
Oh wellâ€Â¦. It’s Friday. I’ll just throw an extra rack of ribs on the BBQ and enjoy the weekend the best I can. Maybe I’ll watch an old movie like soylent green and try to forget I saw this picture.
A very powerful image Jackditch.

Thank you for sharing this image. I agree, it needs to be seen.
One of the most moving that I have seen in a long time. |
