Why does eating dog meat bother meat eaters? What’s the difference between one animal and another?

This always was so strange to me.

I would eat a dog just as I would eat a horse or cow…

If the meat tastes awful I would understand, and I would not want to eat an animal I have an emotional bond with.

But any other animal is fair game to me.

I kept rats as pets, and I loved my rats and wanted no harm to come their way, but I have no problem calling the exterminator if there’s an infestation.

Those are not my rats, so why would I care?

It also depends upon how hungry you are.
