An undercover investigation, led by PETA Asia, in China exposed dogs bludgeoned and killed for their skin. The skin is then used to create leather products such as gloves & belts. These products are distributed and sold all over the world. For all you know, the leather that you or your friends/family own could be made of dog leather.
The dogs are hit over the head, their throats are slit, and then they are hung up in preparation to be skinned.
According to peta.org, "...there are no penalties for abusing animals killed for their skins [in China]."

I ask you to sign this petition in hopes that we can help the people of China, along with Xi Jinping, the President of the People's Republic of China as well as the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, to realize the completely unnecessary cruelty that they cause to these poor animals.
No one deserves this. I hope to one day live in a world where ALL forms of cruelty towards animals is illegal and is punished with the utmost consequences.
Thank-you, Erika Bondy.
