Honestly, most of this is just speculation fueled by xenophobia.

Different country but awful close: About 3 years and 3 months ago I was in a town called Sapa in north Vietnam (I think it's like 20 km from China or maybe even less). I recall walking through the town and past the dog market.
Our tour guide marvelled at our reaction when she showed us a dog's head which, without getting into details, was mighty disgusting. I'd believe Pinner's story could have happened and I know they do indeed eat them.
