Judging from the language on the street signs that commuter is just bringing home some food.

Japan
Dog meat was consumed widely in Japan until 675 A.D. when Emperor Temmu decreed a prohibition on its consumption during the 4th-9th months of the year. Today, it is exclusively consumed by Korean people in Japan. China is the only exporter of dog meat to Japan and exported 31 tons in 2006. In Japan dog meat is available in Koreatowns such as the ones found in Tsuruhashi, Osaka and Okubo, Tokyo. Korean residents in Japan frequent dog meat restaurants there.

I don't know. Look at what the guy in yellow has as his backup. That dog will be off chasing hubcaps before you know it and it will just be mano a mano!
