South Koreans: start taking responsibility for enforcing your own country’s laws: stop the illegal dog and cat meat industry.
Despite the fact that dog and cat meat consumption is an everyday occurrence and is being carried out all over South Korea, it is NOT LEGAL in that country. Their Government does nothing to stop this illegal practice, and they seem happy to ignore it; many Korean citizens are just as apathetic and must also be held accountable.
This is the 21st Century, and it is high time that all South Koreans, leaders, and the general public alike, stand up and take responsibility to enforce their own country’s laws. South Korea and South Koreans cannot continue to ignore these brutal and unethical trades, so let us campaign to urge each of South Korea’s cities to enforce their laws and to put an immediate end to these illegal dog and cat meat industries.
Below are the provinces, cities, and districts in South Korea. Please sign our petitions and send postal letters to these cities calling for an end to this illegal industry. You can use our petition as a sample letter (copy and paste) or use your own words.
Please note: We will be adding more petitions, so please check back with us often. Thank you!

Is South Korea a civilized country?
Without the help of dogs and cats civilization as we know it clearly would not exist.
Without the help of dogs it would not have been possible for our far ancestors to change
their nomadic way of life against a settled one. No dogs – no domesticated animal herds the dogs helped to defend against predators; no dogs – nobody to keep watch against enemies; no dogs – no aid in hunting.
No cats – no one to defend crops against the onslaught of noxious rodents.
Dogs and cats have been mankinds LOYAL servants for thousands of years. We OWE dogs and cats a lot. It is about time we repay them a little bit of this debt in form of kindness or at least – mercy.
So … IS South Korea a civilized country?
So well said and this is a timely reminder. Human Beings where ever we settle upon this globe has to be kind and considerate to All Animals. Our Animal Kingdom a rightly named. We have the Power to STOP this animal cruelty as a command in the name of our Animals Rights. There ARE more Good people than the ones would are not of a higher consciousness level aswell. Justice shall prevail as we bring it into action
NO
so well articulated Herbert! South Korea is ignorant and shameful!
No, South Koreans are clearly not a civilized people and I object to my country giving any aid to them.
No, absolutely not!
The bible also has states that you should not eat animals with paws. This is a sick practice to slaughter these loyal animals. It reveals a disturbing aspect of one’s character who would slaughter a thinking, loving loyal animal. IT’s SICK.
Korejský národ je bezcitný a nemá soucit se zvířaty. Nerespektují zákony pro ochranu zvířat a jejich dobré podmínky. Zastavte toto sadistické mučení. Celý svět se spojuje a podepisuje petice proti sadismu.
Evil people
Please do not buy or consume any china products, this is so sad, my heart breaks everyday, the horrifying way to die for these family member, it is so sick.

In India burning a woman on her husband’s pyre had been a custom for thousands of years. But it had been banned 200 years ago. Grow up S Korea. Barbarism can’t be accepted under the mask of tradition or culture
TRADITION NEVER JUSTIFIES ABUSE
It’s says DOG IS THE BEST HUMAIN’S FRIEND….how is it possible to eat its best friend?
Stop this cruelty to man’s best friend
I’m not sure, anymore, that any animal protein is safe–or, kind–to eat. I DO know that eating companion animals is just wrong, to the soul. JUST SAY NO! Ban this practice: BAN IT, BAN IT, BAN IT!
Is it so difficult to DO what is GOOD ?
To unerstand wuat is CHARITY?MERCY ?
Stopp it immediately
REVOLT HUMANS REVOLT NOW FIGHT FOR YOUR ANIMALS YOUR PLANET EARTH NOW. STAND UP FIGHT REVOLT AGAINST THESE HORRORS. WE ARE MORE THAN THEM WE ARE MORE
The dark age, primitive government…
How can people eat animals all together, they have a heart, a soul, feelings…
Come on wake up and stop this torture!!!
Please END the DOG and CAT meat industry… and put an end to animal cruelty and useless and inhumane killings of animals.
This is so barbaric. It’s beyond cruel. Animals have feelings and emotions just like humans do. They feel pain like we do. This needs to stop. Ban this barbaric trade now.
Uncivilized brutality. IT IS BARBARIC!!!
PLEASE END THIS DOG AND CAT MEAT TRADE. DOGS AND CATS WERE NOT MADE TO BE EATEN, THEY WERE MADE TO LOVE AND BE LOVED! PUT AN END TO THESE INHUMANE AND CRUEL ACTIONS TOWARD THESE SMART ANIMALS THAT FEEL EMOTIONS AND DO NOT DESERVE THIS DONE TO THEM!
And these countries with its people claim to be civilized… They are disgusting and this is reason enough for me NEVER to travel in there and boycott people and products out of these countries whereever and whenever I can!!! I really hope, that the bad Karma, which they create for themselves will catch up to them an punish them. Any Amoeba has more brain than these people!
stop to this
PLEASE END THIS DOG AND CAT MEAT TRADE. DOGS AND CATS WERE NOT MADE TO BE EATEN, THEY WERE MADE TO LOVE AND BE LOVED! PUT AN END TO THESE INHUMANE AND CRUEL ACTIONS TOWARD THESE SMART ANIMALS THAT FEEL EMOTIONS AND DO NOT DESERVE THIS DONE TO THEM!
Stop
These beautiful dogs and cats don’t deserve this torture. Stop now. All you are doing is making the world look at asians in a very bad way..
All of those dogs are wagging their tails, friendly ready to give the love to people like only dogs do. This practice is so inhumane. It must be put to an end. Please stop the torture and mistreatment of these dogs and cats. It is simply CRUEL.
Qué locura y sadismo. Una barbaridad!
Stop this cruelty against dogs.
Stop cruelty to all animals.
Please end the inhumane treatment of cats and dogs.
How about someone cuts a member of your family in half? Dogs are family members not food. Get with reality you sick freaks!
S. Korea is a barbaric, heartless country! They have an opportunity to set a huge example everywhere but choose to continue to allow the brutality, torture, death and consumption of domestic animals!! We can make an impact if we boycott the KIA, Hyundai, Samsung, Daewoo, LG, etc. It is shameful if we support the S. Korean imports into this country!
STOP THE CRUELTY!
Stop!!!
Vil aldrig nogensinde besøg Syd Korea, vil aldrig købe deres produkter saa længe hundekøds- og kattekødsmarkeder eksisterer. Det er grusomme forhold, man tilbyder de stakkels dyr, det er frygtelige pinsler, de er udsat for, hvordan kan mennesker behandle levende væsener saadan. Har dem, der bestemmer i Syd Korea, ikke hjerte og følelser for levende væsener, hvordan kan man være saa ond, I skulle skamme jer, I skulle have samme medicin selv. Stop det og vis verdenen, at I ønsker at være en nation der beskytter jeres dyr mod lidelser og straffer dem, der begaar grusomheder mod dyr.
PLEASE STOP THIS ORRIBLE CRUELTY RIGHT NOW!!! THIS IS INSANE!!!
This is disgusting! Not only do they kill sensitive wonderful animals that feel pain, depression, anxiety and fear, these people do it in the most brutal, horrific and inhumane ways. This is disgusting that people can find entertainment, laughter and fun in brutally torturing a dog or cat to its end of life. This needs to stop. Laws against killing dogs and cats to eat need to take place and anyone who breaks those laws needs to go to prison and suffer themselves. Disgusting people!
Stop cruelty
Basta.
Stop
The world is WATCHING! It makes your country look ignorant, classless and JUST PLAIN SAVAGE!
Basta con questi massacri compiuti ingiustamente? Cosa insegna torturare????
How does one look into the eyes of these defenseless loving animals and are able to torture them? They are not human beings! Wouldn’t it be something if one day they were put thru what they have done to these animals? One day ….
Stop it!!!
Das muss sofort verboten werden und hart und teuer bestraft werden. Tiere sind Lebewesen mit einem Herz und mit Gefühlen wie der Mensch und sie haben das gleiche Recht auf Leben und Unversehrtheit und Gesundheit wie der Mensch und sie haben den gleichen Wert wie der Mensch
ja Bettina, das muss wirklich endlich sehr sehr hart bestraft werden, und die Tiere müssen in Freiheit und ohne Angst leben können!
End this cruel barbaric backward ways- the wotlrld must become meatless. Save these sweet animals
Stop It!!!!!!!
This is so cruel! Asia: animals feel pain! Stop it! Be human!
Please stop the slaughter of dogs, man’s best friend. Dogs are smart and have only love in their hearts for us, unless we teach them that they can’t trust us anymore, because we are cruel beyond what is fathomable.
Please stop!!
Knowing of all the brutal suffering,, I would give my life in place of any of these poor creatures…if they are not worthy of kindness & love, how am i, I am not worth more than an innocent soul, it’s hard to live happy life knowing all the suffering humans cause animals every second of every day. Sometimes I wish humans would go extinct.
It has been proven over and over again, a DOG is Man’s BEST FRIEND. By killing your BEST FRIEND your are stating that you ARE EVIL, DEMONIC and CRUEL and are of NO USE TO ANYBODY on Planet EARTH! You WILL pay for your SINS, if not NOW. Most definitely in BURNING HELL DEMONS!!!!
An I wish the same!
Dogs are MANS BEST Friends. You DEMONS have NO right to Torture, Kill and Eat ANY Animals let alone Dogs. Your are EVIL, CRUEL, DEMONIC, POS, SCUM. We WILL Boycott your country and YOU WILL ALL BURN IN HELL FOREVER!!!!
C’est ignoble ce que vous faîtes. Un animal est un être vivant et il a aussi le droit de vivre.
PROSECUTE THE CRIMINAL TOWNS AND CITIES THAT EAT DOG MEAT!! IS A CRIME !!
Stop the Cruelty against innocent dogs and cats. It’s unbelievably what you are capable of, you must be heart and soulless because it’s so sick what you are doing. This is without any doubt Hell on earth.
These people don’t know any better!! They are living in the past. Dogs & cats shouldn’t ever, ever be tortured, they need a voice & that”s humans who really have compassion. US!!!!
Stop a questo barbaro massacro!
I will never get used to witnessing these traumatic scenes of animal torture by a truly immoral collection of humans. Please South Koreans, become a beacon of light and ditch this barbarity!

Beyond depraved, unconscionable, sadistic, merciless cruelty to living beings, to animals — this is beyond immoral and horrific. — SHAME ON THOSE PARTICIPATING AND THOSE WHO TURN A BLIND EYE — these brutal criminal enterprises are ruled by COWARDS.
Outdated, unecessary, these animals are extremely intelligent, kind, caring, loving, sociable, dedicated,,STOP TORTURING THEM!!!
shame
Your culture is barbaric! Stop this evil.
CHE SCHIFO l’uomo si sente superiore a queste creature, eppure al loro confronto non è altro che un essere miserabile che ha tutto da imparare.
Siete dei barbari senza cuore nn meritate di esistere
How vile!! I am so sick of these countries eating dog an cats like potato chips and salsa. It’s nothing to them. These countries have hearts of stone. My goodness. How do you go look yourself in the mirror after a day of torture, killing, etc like this? How do you just go to bed like nothing ever happened? I WILL NEVER GO TO THESE COUNTRIES. I am going to try my best to avoid giving one dang red cent to these countries until they stop this madness.
these people in Korea have no morals, no hearts or souls they are a bunch of disgusting abusive savages who don’t care anything about these poor cats and dogs that we love as or pets. the whole world is against them and hates them more every passing day.
Please stop this cruel and tortuous treatment of these innocent animals. What you are doing is horrific, barbaric and extremely unnecessary. Consider the severe pain and suffering your actions are causing to these animals, who feel just as much and intensely as any human does.
Everybody who just commented about this evil torture trade against our companion animals, can you please write a letter to the President of South Korea- President Moon Jae-In and express your horrors. That will be pro-active against stopping the dog and cat torture trade.
Help The dogs! Ar
e you not feeling some things for living creatures?
It’s so sick!
Gana zudyti ir valgyti sunis ir kates! Gėda!!!!!
All living beings want to live and experience pain and fear. They have lives with their own purposes, which most certainly not are to be eaten by humans. Acknowledge the value of life and stop thinking that man is God with right to kill each other and all other creatures. It’s heartbreaking practice that is seen on how cats and dogs are tormented and killed. Find compassion – stop the cruel practise
The Torcher and Inhuman Treatment and Slughter is the Most Disguting thing to Ever Witness 😡 THIS MUST BE STOPPED IT WILL KILL YOU ALL EVENTUALLY You Are EATING INFECTED MEAT😡 AND IF THIS MESSAGE GETS THROUGH TO YOU PLEASE PLEASE STOP NOW😢
You have to stop this, it is barbaric, I don’t think the governments care about this at all, if you do show you care and put a stop now to dog and cat consumption. These dogs and cats are living, feeling, loving, loyal,trusting, creatures,South Korea and China, you are a disgrace to humanity in millions of people’s eyes.
