Some campaigners want to see more rights for dog owners.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On July 10, 2020, Li Yu participated in the activity held by Chengdu Labrador Dog Club, a small social activity attended by more than 10 dog owners and their dogs in the Suburban Park of Chenghua District. The 26 year old dog owner have a Labrador, invited his friends to attend and explained the advantages of Labrador as a family companion dog to them enthusiastically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the event ended in less than two hours. \u201cAt that time, I was sharing with several other dog owners some interesting things that happened in the process of keeping dogs. The dogs were also running and playing on the grass nearby\u201d,&nbsp;said Yu Li. The Suburban Park has a vast lawn, which is considered as a paradise for dogs. \u201cI saw two police cars coming towards us. Five or six police officers with sticks and ropes came down from the car. They told us that big dogs couldn\u2019t appear in the city. Then they started to catch the dogs, put them on ropes and drag them into the car.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"902\" height=\"506\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170.jpeg 902w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-300x168.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-770x432.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-900x506.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-293x164.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"902\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170.jpeg 902w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-300x168.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-770x432.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-900x506.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG170-293x164.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 902px) 100vw, 902px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>The police are arresting a big dog\uff08Source\uff1aSouHu News, 11\/09\/2019)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Yu Li and other dog owners pleaded with the police, begging them not to take their dogs, but did not seem to get the police&#8217;s sympathy. Watching the police car go away, they can only stand still. \u201cAt that time, we looked into each other&#8217;s eyes, there was sadness, there was anger, and a common emotion was helplessness,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t know how to save our dog. We know that compared with the powerful official force like the police, our appeal is insignificant.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just two weeks ago, the Chenghua District police station issued a notice saying that large dogs would no longer be allowed in all parts of the area, while the government\u2019s definition of large dogs was based on height. According to the latest regulations of Chengdu municipal government, except for 34 kinds of dogs which are forbidden to be raised, all dogs over 35 cm in height can no longer be allowed to appear in the city. Once found, they will be confiscated forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that large dogs such as Labrador, golden retriever and husky, which are favored by Chinese dog owners and rated as \u201cthe best choice for dog owners\u201d by people&#8217;s daily in 2019, will be isolated from the government&#8217;s restrictive policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These strict restrictions have forced some people who want to raise large dogs to change their minds, and have left owners who already have large dogs at a loss. The policy was announced at the same week, a couple with two Labradors had to open their doors to be inspected by patrols and watch them taken their dog away after being reported by neighbors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6053\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179.jpeg 677w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179-293x165.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6053\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179.jpeg 677w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG179-293x165.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Labrador in a cage was taken away by a police van, with the words &#8220;civilized dog keeping is everyone&#8217;s responsibility&#8221; in red<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe resisted and argued with them, but they told me that any request that goes against the policy is meaningless,\u201d said Lin Ye, the hostess. \u201cAfter that day, my husband and I asked for help in the wechat group of dog owners, but some of their own dogs have been captured or threatened by being captured, and they also need help\u201d, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe big dog owners just talk to ourselves\u201d she said. \u201cI often see complaints from individual owners on social media, but we don\u2019t unite to translate these verbal complaints into action. There are more than 60 million pet owners in China, but no one can organize us to against the government.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a matter of fact, since the implementation of the policy, big dogs have been taken away frequently, but the actions sent out by dog owners\u2019 groups are rarely heard. According to the data released by the Chenghua District Police Bureau, on average, they confiscate more than 10 dogs a day, which means that a considerable number of dog owners face the threat of losing their dogs every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, according to the information provided by the official websites of six registered pet protection organizations in this region, it is obvious that there is no claim for the rights of big dog owners, or the preparations for activities like protest and demonstration are even more blank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Changlin Yang, 38, President of Chengdu Pet Association, wrote on his Weibo blog, \u201cI understand the difficult situation of big dog owners. The reason why we did not take measures is that China is different from western countries. In our country, it is very difficult for non-governmental organizations to protest against the government to have an impact on the current policy.\u201d The association he works for is the largest pet protection organization in Chengdu and it is considered one of the most influential groups in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6062\" width=\"769\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184-293x165.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6062\" width=\"769\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG184-293x165.jpeg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>Yang and his large adopted dog are at his rescue center\uff08source\uff1aChanglin Yang&#8217;s Weibo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Zhongzheng Wang, a well-known lawyer, also agreed with Yang about the difficulty that Chinese owner would have to face in launching protests. \u201cIt\u2019s almost impossible for Chinese dog owners to defend their rights through demonstrations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlthough the Article 35 of China\u2019s Constitution clearly stipulates that citizens of the people\u2019s Republic of China have the freedom of assembly, procession and demonstration\u201d, Wang said. \u201cHowever, for a long time, the government has imposed strict restrictions on demonstrations. Especially after the promulgation of the \u2018law of the people\u2019s Republic of China on processions and demonstrations\u2019 in October 1989, processions and demonstrations need to go through complicated approval procedures, which makes it almost impossible for non-governmental demonstrations to be approved by the government. &#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The political system makes it difficult for dog owners to defend their rights through demonstrations. However, a post published by Wang in Zhihu.com aimed at encouraging dog owners to fight for more rights was unexpectedly praised by nearly 100,000 people. Then he issued the title \u201cwhether there is any doubt about the government\u2019s dog ban policy\u201d. About 80% of the respondents click &#8220;yes&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-770x433.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-2048x1151.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-293x165.jpeg 293w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1400x787.jpeg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-770x433.jpeg 770w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-2048x1151.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-293x165.jpeg 293w, https:\/\/cardiffjournalism.co.uk\/life360\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/09\/WechatIMG183-1400x787.jpeg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption>This is Wang&#8217;s article published on Zhihu.

After the post gained wide attention, Wang published another letter in Zhihu written in a suggestive tone, which will be submitted by Wang to deputies to the Chinese people&#8217;s Congress after being signed anonymously by netizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy purpose is that after reading, reprinting and sharing, netizens can play a certain role in publicizing the public. By pointing out the irrationality of the current policy in the article, I can help big dog owners know how they can fight for rights, perhaps by signing their own names on the letters. I want to gather them all into a powerful force\u201d, Wang said \u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t want to be enemies with the government. I just try to convey our appeals and ideas to the National People\u2019s Congress deputies, hoping to attract the attention of the government and influence the legislation.
