Apr 7, 2011: Chinese gent adopts 140 dogs

Around here, you can't even adopt a dog from a good rescue organization without paying $500 for a fence and $200 in adoption fees. But in Wuhan, China, where they just kill strays outright, Li Zongwen has adopted the pack you see here.

They say he's a former chef, so he knows how to create a cheap meal for these beasts, but the crap output must be legendary, and the begging must be a serious ordeal.

They look nicely cared for. But really, would you trust that he's not slipping the odd one into the pot here and there? Bad Fido, it's the sweet and sour for you!

and that sure is some yummy looking . . . mush he's making!

I think it's hummus. :lol:

Those dogs are gourmets.

And how come so many of them look alike? 140 dogs, and not one Golden Retriever or Great Dane or Dachsund?

Listen to Bob: have your pets spayed or neutered. In three weeks he's going to have 954 dogs.

Take a dog in off the street, give it food and shelter and it will not bite you. This is the major difference between a dog and a man.
Paraphrase from M Twain. Big round of snaps for his guy, taking care of dogs like this has got to accumulate major karma points.

My neighbors have one Corgi/Jack Russell. And I want to kill it and maim them.

I'd just kill this guy outright.:(


ETA: Although they look alarmingly well-behaved in that first pic.

Hope that mush isn't protein fortified,





with melamine...

140 of any animal is at least 135 too much.
Unless it's a herd of course.

Bless him for trying, but that's no life for him or the dogs.

I thought I was bad....what with my 15 dogs....
DanaC • Apr 11, 2011 7:20 am
I dunno Sundae. Those dogs look happy and healthy and as pack animals by instinct large groups of dogs are often pretty happy pups.

Given that the alternative is no life at all...

Props to the guy: I couldn't do it.

@dogpatch: ullo. What breed/s dog?
dogpatch13 • Apr 11, 2011 10:19 am
Husband says too many! 4 Basenjis, 1 German Shep, 1 Sheltie mix, 2 min pin/pom mixes, 1 Jack Russell, 1 Chiweenie, 4 Chihuahua.......I work at a local animal shelter..hazardous duty!! :)
dogpatch13 • Apr 11, 2011 10:20 am
Oh and a Papillon mix...sorry Izzie.

Bet things get lively sometimes ;p

I just have the one dog: Pilau. A bearded collie. Mad as a box of frogs but getting on a bit now.
