Dogs Man

Dog fighting is a popular Chinese gambling game. Gambling in China is strictly prohibited.

After being selected to fight, the destiny of these innocent dogs is death. There is no possibility to escape or betray the owner. Eternal loyalty to the master until death. The obsessed relationship between the sired dog and the owner is synonym of a very evil psychological bond. Every master establishes his own rules and there are several levels of cruelty; no matter what are the breeds trained.

In China there are a lot of dog farms. The pictures have been taken in several locations, that are characterized by the same modus operandi. Access to this areas is not always allowed; on the contrary, in some of the dog farms it is strictly prohibited to enter and shoot any picture.
