You can eat dog meat in summer. Dog meat eaten in summer is often used for barbecue, soup or stew. Bushen decoction is the most popular soup, and its spicy taste can balance the heat in the body in summer. This is considered to balance a person's "Qi" or become an important energy source for the body to maintain health. 19th century dog meat soup is used to cook with vegetables, such as onion and Chili powder, and some people use chicken and bamboo shoots.

The history of eating dog meat:

In a cave in the archaeological site circle of Atapueca, Spain, archaeologists found human tooth fossils about 3 100 to 7200 years ago, with obvious traces of bite marks, bone damage and cooking treatment.

The researchers said that these traces are evidence that humans "eat and cook dogs, wild cats, badgers" and other animals. The discovery of this cave provides new evidence for the history of human eating carnivores. The remains of domestic dogs, wild cats, badgers and foxes unearthed from the Neolithic Age to the Bronze Age are the best proof. Dogs are the most common prey killed by European ancestors.

Debate about abolishing dog meat festival;

On June 18 last year, about 20 organizations, including northwest university of politics and law Animal Protection Law Research Center and China Small Animal Protection Association, jointly issued an urgent appeal to ban the "Litchi Dog Meat Festival on the Summer Solstice Day in Yulin", arguing that there was a "serious phenomenon of stealing and killing dogs and the corresponding black industrial chain of dog meat", and the dog meat lacked strict inspection and quarantine, calling on the local government to "resolutely cancel the dog meat festival and reduce or limit the consumption of dog meat".

The China Society for the Protection of Small Animals believes that what society needs more is the rational guidance of the government to the people's cognition in the dispute over the preservation or abolition of the dog meat festival, rather than playing "word games". The government should let people know that the "Dog Meat Festival" does not conform to the historical trend of respecting life and advocating civilization in the world today. Dogs, as friends of human beings, are included in the category of fasting in more than 100 countries and regions around the world.

However, voices supporting multiculturalism are not uncommon. Some scholars believe that eating dog meat, as long as it is a meat dog, actually reflects the diversified diet structure of society, and everyone's reasonable dietary needs should be respected, but the meat dog should try its best to alleviate its pain in the slaughter process.

At the same time, the view that dog lovers don't eat dog meat should be respected, which is the progress of social civilization. Protecting animals should be the responsibility of every citizen, and the government should promote civilized eating habits.
