How well is it liked there? Will there be a black market? Do bears poop in the woods? If the government declared tomorrow that pizza was outlawed you don't think a black market wouldn't appear overnight?

Of course there will be a black market. But it’s a step in the right direction.

An order meant for foreign consumption. I doubt that the Chinese government has the ability or the desire to end dog consumption.

The Chinese government has signalled an end to the human consumption of dogs, with the agriculture ministry today releasing a draft policy that would forbid canine meat. Wait a minute. Does this even include those snack-size dogs like Chihuahuas and miniature poodles?
