Lisa Vanderpump -- Chinese Need to End Barbaric Torture, Killing of Dogs (VIDEO)

Lisa Vanderpump rallied hundreds of people Sunday to protest a barbaric Chinese festival that involves the torture and brutal killing of dogs.

Lisa, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Gretchen Rossi and other celebs were there on Sunday in L.A.'s MacArtuhur Park, protesting the Yulin Festival.

The festival is unbelievably cruel, where dogs are sometimes burned alive and then eaten.

Lisa and crew are trying to put pressure on the Chinese to end it.
