A Potential Historic Victory: South Korea’s Dog Meat Industry Could Shut Its Doors

[Sign the petition!]

South Korea has been known for the horrifying practice of farming dogs for human consumption. This practice presently breeds over one million dogs across thousands of farms in South Korea in terrible conditions.

While numerous dogs are bred within these facilities, abandoned pets with collars are frequently found among the animals designated for slaughter.

In addition to causing needless harm and death to animals, the industry also presents substantial public health hazards due to unhygienic conditions.

All of this could now change thanks to a legislative bill called the Special Act. 

History in the Making: The Special Act

In late June of 2023, South Korean Democratic Party Assembly Member Jeoung-ae Han introduced a legislative bill known as the Special Act, Bill #2122926, which aims to eliminate the breeding and slaughter of dogs for human consumption.

The proposed legislation aims to ultimately prohibit the breeding, killing, and consumption of dogs for their meat within the nation. It also seeks to offer alternative livelihood options for farmers to transition away from this practice.

Recent opinion surveys conducted by Nielsen Korea reveal that a staggering 87.5% of the population either abstain from consuming dog meat or plan to do so in the future.

With mounting pressure and a task force established by the government in December 2021, Han hopes to expedite the phasing out of the dog meat industry through the Special Act. The bill is currently in the committee stage and needs support in order to move forward.

If Passed, The Special Act Requires a 5-Year Transition

The full ban on breeding and slaughtering dogs for human consumption will take effect five years after the law's passage, marking a significant milestone in South Korea's journey towards ending the dog meat industry.

We need your help to put an end to the cruel and outdated practice of dog meat farming in South Korea. By signing this petition, you can join the growing movement to support the passing of legislation that will ban dog meat farms once and for all.
