I lived there for two years and was all over the place. I only saw dogs butchered and for sale once. They are probably the hardest-working people I’ve ever met and can be very friendly or very militant, depending on the situation. Also, they fought beside us in Vietnam (two large divisions and a brigade) and in Iraq. Every society has some dark sides. I love dogs, just as you obviously do, but it’s hard to judge someone else’s civilization by our standards.
Sorry but they will not get a nod of positive anything from my direction until they stop being so cruel. Thanks for your input though.
