Dogs in the Philippines are still being captured, crammed into cages, and killed for the illegal dog meat trade.
During a recent roadside slaughterhouse raid in Laoag, investigators found evidence that dogs suffered repeated blows to the head and horrific burn injuries during slaughter.
The site would have killed up to 1,000 dogs every year.
Working alongside local police, our investigators helped shut the slaughterhouse down and secure the arrest of a suspected dog trader.
But another illegal slaughterhouse has already been identified, and more dogs remain at risk every single day these networks continue operating.
🚨 LIVE POLL: Should stronger action be taken to end the illegal dog meat trade in the Philippines?
Yes. There should be stricter laws.
No. What they are doing is fine.
