WELCOME TO THE OTHER SIDE OF ELWOOD'S ORGANIC DOG MEAT

Think "dog meat" could drive real change? Us, too. 

 

The response to Elwood’s Organic Dog Meat has been overwhelmingly positive. One reason is that it starts vegan conversations in a non-confrontational way; this also keeps the focus on the animals.

Below, you'll find various dog meat tools for your activism. Just click the button to be taken to that section on this page. And no—you don't have to take super bold, intimidating actions. Find the activism that speaks to you!

Note: We're still building this part of the site! If you have any additional ideas for us to add, please reach out.


For all the animals,
Elwood

CREATE AN ELWOOD WEBSITE IN YOUR COUNTRY

We get many requests to make Elwoods in different languages, from fans who want to share it to volunteers who want to make it. We can't wait for Elwood's to be everywhere!

Where we are right now

The American version of the homepage and breeds page have been translated into multiple languages (you can see these in the drop-down menu of these pages).

And since the cowboy logo is very American, we have immersive pages for specific countries are in the works. These "local" pages will have their own name, cuisines, and cultural touchstones to make the content seem believable for those regions. Visit our family farms around the world: Brazil - Finland - France - Germany - The Netherlands - Norway - Spain


Where we want to be

We're seeking activists with web/social/content creation skills—and the time needed!—to create these immersive pages in their own countries. It's up to you how in-depth you make this—whether you want to create and manage social pages, email responders, etc., or if you simply want to make the homepage as a standalone experience. (If you simply want to create it and hand management off to another activist, we should be able to work that out!)

 

If we do work together, we'll ask you to post a line at the bottom of the page in your language; something like "We are an authorized international member of Elwood's Organic Dog Meat; however, all dogs are produced locally near you."
 

If you are interested in this, please contact us to work together! 

Can I just copy the site and do this on my own?

No, and that's for a few reasons:

  • We'd like to retain creative ownership of this massive project. 

  • We're already working with volunteers to create authentic versions in their countries, so we don't want to have duplicate pages.

  • We want to ensure the page looks good and matches our approach.

 

Benefits of working with us:

  • Access to a fully created Wix page to translate and build out (we will create a mirror and assign co-ownership to you, though you can build one with whatever tool you prefer)

  • Free, legal use of Elwood's stock images

  • A proven user journey that works

  • Guidance for engagement (building auto-responses for the site and social media) 

  • Elwood's list of resources, the FAQ, etc. 

  • Funding for a few things as needed (logo design, um... maybe other things?)

  • Raw design files of printables to use/translate as you see fit.

  • Support from us and other Elwood farmers who are building their own pages

  • Elwood's will share your website and social posts

  • Creative support/feedback from us if needed


And what do we get out of working with you?

  • Content for social media (we want to share about your farm!)

  • The ability to say Elwood's is in X number of countries

  • If you use the Veganuary link tied to Elwood's, we can use those numbers to support the idea that Elwood's Organic Dog Meat is making a difference

  • The ability to give you feedback (if you let us!)

  • We get "coworkers" because dog meat farming is lonely

And—of course: You're fully welcome to make your own non-Elwood dog meat website in your country on your own (this also goes for your cat/zebra/human baby meat farm). We just ask that you not copy our words, layout, or images. Many thanks!

TIPS FOR SHARING ELWOOD DOG MEAT

With social media messages, try not to immediately anger or turn off people. This may mean not "showing your hand" right off the bat. Err on being subtle, ambiguous, and gentle to get people curious and interested in reading more.

Here are some recommendations to get people thinking:

  • Share the website. Respond to social media accounts or posts that promote meat or animal agriculture with messages about Elwood Dog Meat, with a link to our main page or breeds page.

     

  • Keep posts/replies gentle and non-confrontational. The goal is to make people curious and want to read more. For example:

    "If you can't go vegan, be sure to choose an ethical and local option, like Elwood's."

    "Did you hear there's a farm doing the same thing but with dogs? elwooddogmeat.com."

    "Is this real?"


    "This makes me so mad."

    "Have you seen this? It's wild!"


     

  • Keep it kind. It's easy to score cheap points and mock people, but we don't believe that helps the cause. Avoid being cruel. For example, avoid writing replies like, "How'd you like it if they killed your dogs like this?"

    If someone thinks this is real, remember: Despite their actions, these folks are animal lovers and you're showing them something extremely upsetting. They are going through a vegan experience.

    Similarly, gotcha moments feel good, but it's hard to come back from them and have an open dialog about veganism.

    Being gentle with them creates room for meaningful conversations.
