A border collie who reportedly had more than 1.5 millions followers on social media was stolen by a thief in China and later sold to a slaughterhouse to be killed and eaten.
Several local media reports said Chutou the border collie disappeared on 11 May while his owner and Chinese travel influencer Guo was travelling abroad. The dog was being cared for by Guo’s father.
Surveillance footage allegedly showed two people taking the dog away on an electric scooter from the house, which prompted the travel blogger to cut short his trip and return home to search for his pet.
On 26 May, Guo contacted a man he suspected of the crime and offered 10,000 yuan (about $1,500) to return Chutou, according to media reports. Guo learned that the dog had allegedly been sold for 180 yuan ($27) to a dog dealer on 14 May, according to the South China Morning Post. The dog had since been resold to a restaurant, slaughtered, and eaten, the report said.
Guo, a travel blogger from Henan province, and Choutou became internet stars after he started documenting their travels across China on Douyin – the Chinese version of TikTok.

@domdyer70 There needs to be severe consequences for evil behaviour especially towards innocent beings!!!!! This is unacceptable. Torturing an animal so severely that it needs to be put down… consequences is a 5 year ban! Pathetic!!!!!!😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
@domdyer70 The poor animal was tortured and abused and paid the price with his life and all this man gets is a slap on the wrist, disgraceful. There needs to be tougher laws on animal abusers and custodial sentences.
Los Angeles, unfortunately, is plagued by corruption, primarily due to the influence of the Democratic Party and my governor, NewScum. This corruption has resulted in the neglect and mistreatment of numerous animals in the city. I sincerely hope that since this incident has been reported, the individual who subjected the poor dog to such abhorrent treatment in the back of the truck while driving will be held accountable for animal cruelty. Their actions were cruel, and individuals like them should never be permitted to own pets again!
Anyone in LA recognize this ass hole? Driving like an ass hole, with his poor dog hanging like this in the back of his truck on the 110. Please help identify this POS.
Let’s make him famous.
