"Most
of the dogs were the traditional and 'tastiest' yellow variety like
my own dog Rama, rescued from Thailand in 1998."

Kim's Full Story
"There
were others, including a scruffy little mongrel/terrier cross who
looked like a stolen pet."
"Then,
as I watched in horror, dogs were brutally lifted by the neck by
their torturers wielding metal tongs. The dogs were stabbed in the
neck, some had wire placed round their necks to slowly choke them
as they were bled." ... Read
Kim's Full Story
"They were then suspended upside
down by their hind legs, from the same cages where their companions
were held, who could only watch in terror as the blood flowed from
the suspended animals into a bucket placed below their heads."

Kim's Full Story
"After
being bled, they were hoisted down and thrown into a large drum
of boiling water. The dogs were still alive, one was thrashing violently
around as it hit the water. After being boiled alive, the dogs had
their fur scraped off their bodies, they were gutted and then blow
torched to caramelize / preserve their meat."

Guidance - Peaceful Protest
If
you are affected by what you have read here and wish to make your
opinions heard, take note of these guidelines when corresponding
with Chinese officials:
The
mindset inside China is very different to western culture.
When writing to their official departments, be polite and courteous.
They will not be accommodating to correspondence that is aggressive,
insulting or dishonourable in any way.
Diplomacy is important when communicating with any government, and
you can still respectfully make it clear to Chinese officials that
their country's treatment towards animals causes you great distress,
and you feel that while such cruelty continues you are unable to
visit or support international events taking place in China until
this situation is humanely resolved.
Writing
paper letters is often more effctive than e-mailing (but please
use recycled paper)
Write
to your local Chinese Embassy.
