I don't believe it's illegal to eat dog in America, but it's not something that's looked upon as a good thing.

In Texas it is illegal for one to shoot a buffalo from the second story of a hotel.  Also the Encyclopedia Brittanica is banned.\nsee: http://www.dumblaws.com

Yes. My brother got a ride to work after he wrecked his car on icy pavement. And I got a ride on a holiday when no bus or taxi was passing by. And the person that wrecks your day is usually yourself. The police is just keeping you from doing even greater harm to the general public. In fairness I must say that none of the above facts happened in the USA. One episode was in Germany and the other in Brazil. You have tough laws in the USA for things that are not even noticed in other countries. Like peeing on the street or drinking in public or prostitution

Of course it is! What state statute would make it illegal?

very few of the dogs that come under the dangerous dogs act actually are  common in the uk, several are japanese and have never been popular here rottweilers are not on the list probably should be.  when dogs are interbread can still be dangerous however do not come under the law.\n\nThe law as it stands are pretty inafectual

ABSOLUTELY you are.\n\nThat is aiding and abetting.\n\nNot to mention you are an AMERICAN or at least you LIVE IN AMERICA and you should be following AMERICAN laws.

Auto's response is correct.  You can certainly sue; you just might have a hard time collecting a judgment if they have no insurance or money.  \n\nHere in Indiana, we have a strange modified "first bite is free rule."  The owners are typically not "negligent" in keeping a "dangerous" animal unless they know that is has "dangerous tendancies," which they would not, unless it has already bitten someone else.  This doesn't seem fair, I realize.  However, I don't think that you would have any problem getting around this, as the dog was running loose, and they were certainly negligent in letting it do so.  \n\nIf you're in Indy, shoot me an email and we can exchange numbers.  I'd be happy to give you some (brief) free advice.

no, in the us we just have very strict poultry handling standards and currently it can only be passed on by comming in contact with contaminated meat or excrement, if it changes to be able to transmit from human to human it will affect us

I've been to Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, The Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and American Samoa.\nThe strangest thing i ever encountered was when i ordered "BEEF STEW" in a dirt floor cafe in the Philippines.\nThere was a woman with me and she sat across the table to watch me eat it.\nIt was piled high on top of white rice.\nI was gobbling it down, Navy style, and the woman asked me, "You like?". I said, "Yeah, but it tastes funny...has a funny texture. What is this, horse meat?"\nShe replied, "No. Dats DOG!".\nI nearly lost it. i began to imagine my pet dog growing up. But i had already eaten half of it so i finished it.\nIf i had known what it was before i started eating it, i would have passed. But i don't like to waste food, and i was hungry.\nAlso had monkey meat...on a stick!\n"Monkey meat, chicken feet...you like eat?"\nPhilippines is a trip.\n\nHad Kobe beef, in Sasebo, Japan. Kobe beef is illegal in America. Because they strp a calf to a harness and it never touches the ground. They massage it's body with special oils and feed it a special diet.\nThe meat melts in your mouth. Nothing like it.\nIt's eaten raw in a rice roll, with greens.

It won't work.\nAnimal rights activists will shut you down before it begins.\nThis is why cockfighting and dog fights are also illegal in the United States.

You can't without being licensed as an animal control officer.  It is illegal everywhere to use said weapons on human beings, so don't even think about it.

Different states have different laws. I doubt you would get a judge to hear a case on it. You'd be better off asking the new owner to return the dog & pay the amount of what a pup would have sold for.

Of course not!! In the United States to do so would make our country run by religion.  That in itself is wrong from any perspective.  Those countries which have such laws are going down a slippery slope that is detrimental to individual freedoms.
