Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

Oh yeah...it's fascinating. It's why she started singing jazz. She was hit by a truck and was layed out in bed for a year, had to re-learn how to walk and ended up with severe neural damage and hypersensitivity in her eyes and ears, so she had to learn a softer music than the rock she used to like. She learned to play guitar and sing while in the hospital. And the hypersensitivity in her eyes is why she wears sunglasses almost all the time.
