The Economist reports that Shanghai is going to inaugurate a policy allowing families to keep only one pet dog. The new rules are modelled on the lines of China's notorious one-child policy.
Dogs which are surplus to requirements will presumably be eaten. [Tastes kind of like rabbit. Ed.]
Reporting the story, the Economist writes "Owners of the city's many unlicensed pooches insisted the local authorities were hounding them."
I wish I'd said that!
