Doggie Hoagie

I heard of a dog meat festival held annually in China. As a hard working nose to the grindstone researcher I went where no other investigated reporter dared to go: Wickipedia. This is what I found: "The Lychee and Dog Meat Festival, commonly referred to as Yulin Dog Meat Festival, is an annual celebration held in Yulin, Guangxi, China, during the summer solstice in which festival goers eat dog meat and lychees. The festival spans about ten days during which it is estimated that 10,000–15,000 dogs are consumed. The festival has been criticized by animal welfare supporters." I wonder if in Yulin, China, they have a restaurant similar restaurant to Col Pool's BBQ in north Georgia with a steep hill behind the building with doggie tombstones? Would the names on the marker have names such as Fido, Willow, Fifi, Snoopy? PS This BBQ joint has since been sold since this blog has been written.
