For every 1,000 signatures, NationofChange will send a letter to Mr. Chen Wu, Governor of Guangxi Autonomous Region, and Mr. Peng Qinghua, Guangxi Communist Party of China Chief, asking that they put an end to the Yulin Dog Meat Festival.

Update: We have surpassed 1,000 signatures! We are sending this petition to Mr. Chen Wu and Mr. Peng Qinghua with your signatures attached. We will continue to send this petition for every 1,000 signatures. Thank you!

Every year thousands of dogs are butchered for the Yulin Dog Meat Festival.

Many of the dogs are stolen, put in disgusting conditions in cages, and starved before being beaten to death or having their throats slit.

Over the years the Yulin Dog Meat Festival has lost a lot of support. Most Chinese citizens do not support it, and Yulin authorities themselves have stated they would no longer support the festival.

However this hasn’t resulted in the festival being cancelled, but rather just a smaller event with fewer dogs. Meat traders that help put on the festival are committed to putting on the event regardless of official support.

Please join with us in urging the Yulin authorities to take direct action in ending the festival for good and ending the slaughter of thousands of dogs a year.

These are animals that are responsive to humans, have been and are literally life-savers in the jobs they do.
