Yes people may have been forced to eat dogs, cats, and even humans on occasion. The survivors of the Andes plane crash had to eat (already dead) humans' bodies if they wanted to live. There have been other instances.
But if we stop our ethical/philosophical/anthropological arguments for one second and think even for a moment about being boiled or skinned alive, and what torture that involves...well it's beyond our comprehension really.
It's not the eating of the meat of these beings exactly, but the deliberate sadistic torture, done for reasons of 'virility and health' for humans -and quite erroneous, in fact. I might be wrong here, but how can consuming a horrendously tortured creature -tortured in ways I will not describe fully -ever be a good thing for the well-being of humankind?
But my purpose in posting these petition links was not to engender argument or debate, but to offer the opportunity for those who can support and hopefully help these dogs, to sign and add their voice to the millions protesting about this gross cruelty. These Souls chose to come into the world in order to bring about massive changes in Human consciousness and evolution, and their cries should not be ignored for the sake of our arguments.

Well put, Tobi. Incidentally, I sign most of the petitions that come to me via email on these types of issues (and many other issues), most notably change.org and a few others you listed.
Some of us have to start somewhere, so your message should be appreciated by everyone with serious concerns over these types of problems.
Thank you for making it possible for others to become aware of what's going on and have the chance to sign these petitions.
