“A Case for Eating Dogs” is a satirical extract from Jonathan Safran Foer’s book “Eating Animals” written in a reverie-description mode, intentionally addressed to the context cultural of Americans, especially dog ​​owners or animal lovers, but also people who eat dog meat. Foer's goal is to encourage his audience to treat dogs like they treat other animals by not consuming meat at all. Through the discourse structure of a satire and the use of rhetorical devices and ingredients, an audience operating in a cultural context of animal lovers might agree with Foer, while owners and/or dog lovers might misinterpret its implicit message and therefore continue to eat meat.
