Outcry in Thailand over case of man who adopted dogs and subsequently eating them

BANGKOK – Thai pet lovers are shocked and saddened by a disturbing case of animal cruelty in Chiang Rai province.

The Watchdog Thailand Foundation has revealed a horrifying incident of a man who adopted dogs under the guise of providing them a loving home, only to cruelly slaughter and consume them.

The case unfolded when a dog named “Sushi”, which had been rehomed several times, was adopted by a young Akha man.

Instead of providing a loving home, the man, identified as Ache Wuyi, was part of a disturbing trend of animal cruelty. Tragically, Sushi – along with other dogs named Bear, Lucky, and Sumo – met a horrific fate.

When the Watchdog Thailand Foundation was alerted about the incidents, it worked with local authorities to investigate the matter. The Mae Chan Police, led by Lieutenant Colonel Kiatisuk Chitrprasan, questioned Wuyi, who confessed to killing and consuming the dogs.

Wuyi claimed that he had adopted the dogs but had subsequently killed and eaten them due to behavioural issues and difficulties in rehoming them.
