The news comes as Chinese animal welfare organisations, tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn activists as well as state-run media outlets are urging the country's leaders to pass their first law against animal abuse.
It also comes after two Chinese cities, Shenzhen and Zhuhai, banned residents from eating dogs and cats in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has signalled that it could ban dog meat from the dinner table nationwide after classifying dogs as companion animals instead of farm animals in May.
However, no official directive has been issued yet.
The group of dogs were spotted in a filthy yard on Friday in the city of Zhengzhou in Henan Province, reported [ ], the official outlet of the Communist Youth League committee in Beijing.
According to animal lovers who went to rescue the dog, the yard was part of a kitchen facility and run by a street food vendor who 'kills dogs around the year'.

He shouted at animal overs 'who gives you the authority'
Footage released by [ ] appears to show one brown dog bound by iron wires sitting on the ground and another white dog standing in a corner in the grotty space.
The video also shows the man admitting to not having a business license after being confronted by several people.
He then tried to fend off the rescuers by challenging them 'who gives you the authority' and 'there are many people who sell grab-and-go meals'.
Urban management officers were reportedly called to the scene and asked the man to write a letter promising never to kill dogs again. The man was let go subsequently without punishment, it is reported.

[/news/article-8864471/Chinese-state-media-urges-nations-leaders-pass-animal-protection-law-soon-possible.html China's Central Television] last week called on the government to pass the country's first animal protection law 'as soon as possible' in a rare move from an official media outlet.

Animal welfare remains a sensitive topic in China, partially due to the international uproar over the Yulin Dog Meat Festival.
The annual activity is one of the most controversial food festivals in the world and sees thousands of dogs cruelly killed, skinned and cooked with blow-torches before being eaten by the locals to celebrate the summer solstice.
Despite official moves and concerns over the transmission of COVID-19, this year's [/news/article-8431255/Yulin-butchers-selling-dogs-despite-classified-pets.html Yulin dog meat festival] opened 'as usual' in June in the southern province of Guangxi, according to sources.
