See Crawford H. Greenewalt, Ritual Dinner in Early Historic Sardis (University of California Press). Greenewalt cites an older book by H. Scholz, Der Hund in der griechisch-roemischen Magie und Religion, which I have not seen. Greenewalt also cites Isaiah 66.3, which seems to refer to some kind of ritual killing of dogs.
I thought it was “poopies”, and wondered why the big deal?
