Did this story air on TV, or just the web? A little warning should have been given about the images, but the story is valid. Don't shoot the messenger's sponsors. They probably had no idea what story they were being bundled with.

BTW, most "food" dogs suffer far more than that one did.... and that's before they thankfully die. People eat animals, period. Nearly every creature on this planet has been eaten by somebody at some point. Dogs, horses, guinea pigs, and other "pets" are commonly on the menu somewhere in the world... and they think we're crazy for eating cows and pigs.

Maybe I'm just jaded bacuse I don't come from the Planet Sunshine which is completely covered in rainbows and puppies?
