Reality check, Sherry. I had these BBQ's going on next door to me
for nearly a year when I lived in Garden Grove, CA. I saw this over
the fence, first hand. Dog doesn't smell like chicken! One dish is
called tomagogi. At the time if I recall correctly, there was a $7
adoption fee for neutered animal. Feeding your family for $7 plus
charcoal is pretty cheap. Once the word got out, the adoption price
was raised considerably.

BTW, I believe the Swiss are also a large consumer of dog meat.

So did you do anything about it besides ogle over the fence?

I notified the police after I was darned sure of what I was seeing.
You would not believe their reluctance because at the time, our state
was welcoming these people with open arms and we locals were supposed
to be "understanding" and "accommodating" of a different culture.
Like I said, it this particular "cultural tradition" went of for
about a year before the shelters and pet protection associations put
their collective foot down. "These people are in America now and as
such, need to observe our customs." (paraphrasing).
