It is morally okay to slaughter dogs for meat or leather. Non-human animals have no rights whatsoever. The whole "dogs are smart" argument is bullshit. Especially when you take into account that pigs are smarter than dogs yet nobody, except for vegetarians and vegans bats an eye when they are used for meat consumption. Also pigs are sometimes used as pets and pet pig owners literally don't care that other pigs are being eaten.

Counterpoint: Eating any animal is unethical. It is equally evil to eat a dog or a pig and while the hypocritical double standard in which people accept one evil while disapproving of the other is wrong, that is not an excuse to indulge in and accept both evils.
