The Ovandonga people, located in the Oshikoto region of Namibia have no qualms about consuming dog meat.

It is said that there are a variety of dogs reared in certain parts of the southwestern African country for various purposes.

A number of dogs are strictly prepped for human consumption.

“The whole point is to club them to death when they are nice and fat, but before they are old enough to eat the chicken on the farm or steal the eggs,” said Kuku KaSilas.

“Dogs are normally tied to a tree and hit on the head numerous times with an ‘omupini’ (large stick) until they stop moving,” KaSilas went on to say.
