Should we promote dog adoption for people that would feed them with meat?
I saw a post on Facebook of someone begging for people to adopt some dog, who was going to be killed the next day. I asked a friend if she wants to adopt him. She said she would want to, but her mother wouldn’t allow it. Then I was going to convince her but then I thought “wait a sec, she’s going to feed her with other dead animals anyway”. And I know that there is vegan food for dogs, but even a lot of vegans give their dogs animal flesh, so we should not expect non vegans to do it.
I talked to my activist friend and she told me that dogs can develop compassion in non vegans. But I said I don’t see how adoption would be an effective way to promote veganism. But I definitely see how it’s an effective way to actually make people increase their consumption of animal products. My friend also said she thinks the dog food is made from leftovers, therefore doesn’t require more animals to be murdered. But I’m not sure myself if it’s true.
So should we promote adoption to non vegans?
