Dog culling

A sad event in the city of Baoding, Hebei.

It is a sad day for all dog owners. Apparently the local municipal has approved the plan to go ahead with culling of dogs as of today. All dogs without registered licensed are to be put down with bullets. This extends to all unlicensed dogs that are confined in-house. Meanwhile dog lovers are rushing to apply dog licenses for their pets. It may probably be too late since the culling starts today.
Why am I so concern about dog culling that is happening so far away from Singapore?
Well, my girlfriend who is a resident of Baoding has a pet dog named Dudu. She is trying to find ways to save the dog from the bullet. It may be a tough call, not knowing who and where to approach with regards to dog license registration.
For once I thought the Chinese loves dog meat and this might be a good time for the locals over there to have sumptuous dog meat delicacies at very cheap price!
Why get rid of the dogs if there is no dog flu outbreak?
