We at "RAISE UR PAW" need the voices and paws of the world to be raised to help ban the YULIN DOG MEAT EATING FESTIVAL which takes place every year in Yulin, China every June. [Note this petition has been slightly edited because the 2015 festival has now sadly taken place despite so much opposition. We will persist and post updates to our supporters until it is stopped]. Countless Canine Lives are sacrificed each year in order to fulfill an inhumane tradition that has been permitted to occur for years - and it is now time this horror is finally put to an end.

This brutal "festival" involves what some call savouring the "delights" of dog meat hotpot, lychees, and strong liquor -- which will increase the abduction of strays and pets and also increase the torturous & inhumane prisons of dog meat farms - places where man's best friends are raised for such purposes -- thousands of dogs will suffer, be butchered, beaten to death, skinned alive and eaten.

Time is ticking and the massive killing of dogs is expected to take place year after year so we must get our voices united and raised not just to save the lives but save the hope in humanity - to be part of a compassionate world where we all come together to stand up and speak out for all innocent life, not just the life of humanity.  If we turn away and ignore the cries/pleas of these babies, then we truly have turned away from being human"kind".

RAISE UR PAW TODAY AND TAKE ACTION!
