Eating Dogs?

I have just learned today that apparently in Pennsylvania you can consume dogs. DOGS!

I don't know why, but nobody has ever told me that a person could consume a dog in the state where I live. I think perhaps they were trying to protect me since I'm an animal lover. I just don't get why someone would want to eat such an adorable creature! I get that different cultures eat different things, but in the United States we keep our dogs as loyal pets to protect and guard us against potential threats. I mean, who could eat these cutie pies?

Like these adorable Labrador puppies?

Or these adorable Siberian Husky puppies?
