Hundreds protest China's one-dog policy

Several hundred people have protested in the Chinese capital, Beijing, against restrictions on the ownership of pet dogs.


New rules limit families in the capital to owning one small dog no taller than 35 centimetres.


The one-dog policy is part of a campaign to combat rabies but dog owners say the policy is inhumane.


Chinese police say 18 people have been detained.

That is why they want more than one dog. You can't farm dogs with just one dog.

Besides, the law only applies to pet dogs. Open season on the ones for eatin'!
