Do you own a fur–trimmed winter coat? Chances are
that the fur comes from dogs raised in China. I
recently wrote about the processing of this "commodity"
and included a video for your viewing pleasure:

Never in my life have I seen such horrible torture. Why
couldn't they have at least killed these poor innocent
animals first instead of leaving them to die such a
horrible, cruel, heartless death. I will be haunted
forever with images of the poor helpless creature laying
there skinless, to die.
I watched the video to the end. My entire body feels like
it's shaking from the inside out. The second half of the
video showed only the rest of the animals whose fate was known.
I do believe if people saw this they would forever fight
against it and not promote it by buying and/or wearing fur
from these gorgeous and beautiful creatures.

You may be interested to know about Animals Asia Foundation
http://www.animalsasia.org
– apart from their famous China Moon Bear Rescue and sanctuary
in China, Jill Robinson and her team of dedicated animal lovers
(and influence in the chinese government), have their Dr. Dog
program – which uses rescued dogs (and cats) from the live food/
animal trade – to take into doctors clinics, hospitals, blind
children homes and orphanages etc to rekindle the lost special
bond of "a mans best friend" and animals for positive health
treatments. They are very special people indeed, having met
Jill and the team and worked on some of their projects (as
volunteer and pro–bono in Australia). Every bit of publicity
counts (both hard to watch and the good outcomes) to stem the
awful use of animals for human selfishness. Thanks for sharing
the video.

I already had known that the fur trade was horrible, but
I had not known the extent of it.

just hearing that. I take as much solace as I can from
knowing that there are others who care like we do and are
trying to stop the monsters.

http://www.animalsasia.org
– apart from their famous China Moon Bear Rescue and sanctuary
in China, Jill Robinson and her team of dedicated animal lovers
(and influence in the chinese government), have their Dr. Dog
program – which uses rescued dogs (and cats) from the live food/
animal trade – to take into doctors clinics, hospitals, blind
children homes and orphanages etc to rekindle the lost special
bond of "a mans best friend" and animals for positive health
treatments. They are very special people indeed, having met
Jill and the team and worked on some of their projects (as
volunteer and pro–bono in Australia). Every bit of publicity
counts (both hard to watch and the good outcomes) to stem the
awful use of animals for human selfishness. Thanks for sharing
the video.

The few images I saw as I scanned through the video
were more than enough to convince me that these people
are cruel, sadistic, and could skin you or me alive
without giving it a second thought. Too bad the
American people are now obliged to send their wealth
to such an evil murderous people. NAFTA and GATT are
surely designed to weaken our beloved nation and China
is likely one of the implements of death poised to
destroy us.

I already had known that the fur trade was horrible, but

Reader Response to Dog Torture Video
Do you own a fur–trimmed winter coat? Chances are
that the fur comes from dogs raised in China. I
recently wrote about the processing of this "commodity"
and included a video for your viewing pleasure:

I write this letter with shaking hands and a broken heart.
Never in my life have I seen such horrible torture. Why
couldn't they have at least killed these poor innocent
animals first instead of leaving them to die such a
horrible, cruel, heartless death. I will be haunted
forever with images of the poor helpless creature laying
there skinless, to die.
I watched the video to the end. My entire body feels like
it's shaking from the inside out. The second half of the
video showed only the rest of the animals whose fate was known.
I do believe if people saw this they would forever fight
against it and not promote it by buying and/or wearing fur
from these gorgeous and beautiful creatures.

I have to agree with you....my spirit grieved heavily
and I also could not finish watching the videos. There
is a day of reckoning. How dull and hardened people
have become. It was never our destiny to be that way.
We were to be the keepers and protectors, not this...

Thought I could watch this video. Didn't think it would
bother me, but it did! I made it about 30 seconds and
almost threw up. How horrifying!!! I don't buy fur, but
was never really concerned about who did. This industry
reminds me of the abortion clinics all over our country!
Innocent preborn human lives need protected too! What kind
of people are we becoming when we've lost our sense of the
sanctity of life?

was a little guy who was skinned and then he got up and
