I've just heard that the dog population in China and Japan are going up and up. Right now, in Japan there is more than a million dogs! Quite a difference from America and Canada. Governments are telling families in China and Japan to only have one dog per family and adopt, that way the population won't go up as fast. What do you think about this? And what do you think the govenment should do to make the dog population go down?

the chinese and japanese government looks at this different .
The mentality of these people is not to be compared to ours.
They do not look at a dog as a pet.
China & Korea have Dog farms, like we have pig farms, you pick your dog, they killed it skin it and you cook it.
To them a dog is not a pet, as they are to us.
And it is too expensive for the average person to spay and neuter there animals.
My husband goes on frequent business trips to china, and he does not tell all the things he sees, because he knows it upsets me.
It took him a while to get his mind in the right directions, due to the lack of education what spay and neuter is concernd and the mindset of the people not looking at a dog as a pet.
what is completely unspeakable for us, is normal culture for them.
Our Dogs are not spoiled,we're just well trained

That is just cruel and nasty no wonder they have all those sicknesses over there because they eat all that slop that your not supposed to eat. I guess over there a hot dog really must be a hot DOG. I dont understand why they just can't put all the dogs to sleep if they are overpopulated with them.

i think it's a shame that they don't know the devotion a dog can give them.i've heard that they eat dog and the first time i heard that i understood.it's just like dobermom said that they have a different culture than us.there are other places that people worship cows and dare to never eat them while here we eat them all the time.

Free range and they brush them and take care of them unlike here where we treat our poor cows like crap! Now I understand why our meat sucks because of the way we treat the animals before we kill them. Also I heard they were starting to clone meat and put it in the stores.

My honest opinion on that, its there problem not ours. They acutally eat cats and dogs over there. Just sick/wrong. Seems like they have out of control birth rates over there they had to limit it to one chilid per house hold. That is just my opinion.

I herd a song tonight on the radio, another girl sings about a boy. She sees his face in every space every room, and I know that if I turn around you won't be there. If I close my eyes, will you be there? I don't wanna lose your face, and I don't wanna wake up one day and not remember what time erased. I don't wanna turn around cause im not scared of what love gave me and took away and I don't wanna lose your face. I've got a photo of you in my bedroom and I hope it never falls. I hope I never lose that feelin' I use to get when you called. I don't wanna lose your face. - Taylor Swift

| I wouldn't say this exsists in all households across China and Japan, that would be a gross oversstatement. Where is this article you read? In fact, some of the best quality poodles have come from Japanese breeders in recent years. Vicki, the toy poodle who won group 1 at westminster this year (and last year) was of Japanese breeding, as was Coleman, the poodle who was #1 show dog in the USA a few years back. Stating people in these countries eat dogs or do not value them as pets is a gross generalization backed up by few facts.

| The dog population is high everywhere except here. That's why there are adoption of dogs from places like Porto Rico. It's especially high there cause they don't or can't have there dogs spayed and neutered As a matter of fact I know a dog that was from Porto Rico and he turned out to be an awesome dog
