Revealed, the hero of the Chinese dog meat festival: How one widow spent £45,000 and defied death threats to save 800 canines from the chop – but it tore her family apart

  • Yang Xiaoyun, 66, spoke to MailOnline about her devotion to rescuing dogs
  • Cruel meat sellers throttled dogs in front of her to try to make her buy more for a higher price - and they sent messages between them entitled 'kill her'
  • She sold her family's two houses to fund her dog shelter in Tianjin – causing her son to shun her for three years because he lost his inheritance
  • Mrs Yang says she is 'proud of being smelly' because she has saved so many animal lives - at least 'tens of thousands' in total 
  • Says vendors at Yulin cut dogs' 'stomachs open whilst they were still alive, then took the intestines out and burn them'
