Animal activists in China are using the lunar Year of the Dog to push for a ban on the dog meat trade - which is viewed as a tradition in some parts of the country.
According to a recent survey, less than a third of China’s 1.4 billion people have ever eaten dog, and it’s only popular in specific regions in the South, Central and North-east parts of China.
Volunteer Wang Liping, who runs a dog shelter on the outskirts of Beijing, says she’s been waiting for this sort of law her entire life.
