the vietnamese dog meat market now very hidden .
we spend a day and a night to try to access the places .
welknown district 10 market . the police do some raid . so trader open only at night and only locals allow around .
Even if the laws dont prohibit vietnamese gouvernement recomand peoples to dont eat dogs and cats for health issues and the image of their country in the world.
Many peoples here love animals and see with a very bad eyes dog eater .
But when speak with locals 20% still or have eat dogs .
the methode of killing is terrible .. burn alife the animals . the brutality is extrem .
We leave HoChi Minh without can take any pictures but we know its still exist even if strongly reduce these last few years .
we head toward a more rural area hoping the slaughterhouse still accept to receive us .
The trade is more located at the vietnam /cambodian border and in the nortern rural area.
Local peoples fight against the dog meat torture trade very well as many dogs are stolen from their owners for be sold to the hideous market .
It will take years to make it disepear . many childs few decade ago been raised in school with choices to eat different meat . and dog meat was in menu .
New generation dont have this issue as now school no more teach them they can eat pets.
From my last trip years ago where dog was hunging in many market at the eyes of everybody to now where its not wecome to eat them a lot of change already .
a big change happening alowly here in vietnam when cambodia is still extremly active on the trade.
Even if every asian gouvernement would banned the dmtt today, it would take decades to definitively see the dogs and cat safe ..
Already dogs and cats are no more in the list of animals can be eaten in the country . prove of the evolution .
at the opposit of cambodia . vietnam work a lot on stoping the problem .
