"Chinese officials are set to ban the sale of dog meat at the notorious Yulin festival, activists have claimed.
Thousands of animals are slaughtered every year at the event, which was founded by traders in 2010 hoping to boost sales. But a new Communist party official wants to change image of the city and turn into a cultural hub, activists told The Independent."

Major news for animal welfare. Now it is time to save the cats too as their meat will still be sold.
