The Chinese manufacturers, who have no laws protecting dogs and cats, have been making clothing using racoon dogs fur. This is actually a breed of dog in China used strictly for it's fur. THe worst part about it , is the dog is skinned alive.

The clothes are sold in major department stores in the US. JC Penny's pulled all the clothes with this fur off the racks, crossed out the reference to dog on the label, and put them back on sale. Here is a list of all the slime ball stores that are selling this junk....

Ugh, I don't even want to read that! I thought you were referring to the oh so common, "everything I own even after washing is covered in pet hair, how do I get rid of it"...LOL.

I totally wasn't expecting to see what it was actually about, and makes me sick to my stomach.

And it's not just racoon dogs. I have seen video of a German Shepherd that was chained to a fence and skinned alive. It was conscious the whole time. It's quite possibly the most horrific, disturbing thing I've ever seen. This has been going on for a long time in china.

This is not the first time I have said this on this forum....China is DISGUSTING! I had to do research on PETA and watched a video of fur farms, the most disgusting horrific video I have ever seen in my life! How can they do such a thing to an animal! and even worse an animal that is ALIVE!!!

What is really scarey is that with the balance of trade deficit getting worse and worse, and China lending the US money to pay down the national Debt, pretty soon they will own the US and then get to call all the shots.

Yeah, I have no idea why they skin them alive. I'm guessing they consider it too messy to kill them first? Maybe they are just too lazy. I don't know. It is sick and to me it shows zero respect for life.

I do eat meat, but I don't wear or own fur of any kind of animal (leather is in...not for clothes, but for furniture )...maybe that makes me a hypocrite...I'm sure in some people's eyes it does.

I'm sure there won't be any lack of support for a law making dog fur illegal.

That is horrible. I do not understand how this (skinning dogs alive) could be allowed to happen..What kind of sick person would do a job like that!

There needs to be a warning on the first post of this thread - that article contains a link to a very graphic video of the animals being skinned alive... >X.x;<

Poor animals.
Some stupid american chick came over to my house the other night, she was a friend of my boyfriends friend and was talking about the seal hunt (I know wonderful St. Paddy's conversation). Well she said all Canadians were barbarians and she was disgusted that we allowed this to go on and we should all be ashamed and she said we were worse then the Chinese. She wasn't drunk (alcohol goes against her religion) and when I told her to re-think that because not all Canadians were like that she started to get really mean. Needless to say the night ended about ten minutes later when I kicked her and her buddy out of my house. (no offence for all the americans on this site are not this stupid and americans in general are not stupid just this particular idiot woman). My point is I hate when people generalize. Not all Chinese people are into that, it is the government does nothing to stop it and it is the government and the people who participate in the disgusting practise who should be punnished and condemned. Same goes for my countries disgusting and horrid seal hunt.
