Vietnam is one of the key dog meat markets in Southeast Asia According to statistics, each year approximately five million dogs are killed for meat, causing threats to human health. The ACPA was established in May 2013 to put an end to dog meat trade. The APCA focuses on a flashpoint in the global dog meat trade - the supply of dogs from Thailand, Cambodia and Laos into Vietnam, where they are slaughtered and consumed. Along with Change For Animals Foundation, the ACPA comprises of Humane Society International, Animals Asia and Soi Dog Foundation acting both locally within Asia and internationally on the issue. Dog meat production has evolved from small-scale household businesses to a multi-million dollar industry of illicit dog traders, and the trade has been linked to outbreaks of trichinosis , cholera and rabies. The World Health Organization recently cited the trade as a contributing factor in recent outbreaks of rabies in Indonesia and cholera in Vietnam. ________________________________________________________ JOIN! - LIKE IT! - SHARE IT!...
