Friendship City Campaign – Ulsan Ulju County, South Korea – Třebíč, Czech Republic
Třebíč Mayor Pavel Pacal: Tell your Friendship City, Ulsan Ulju County, South Korea, that you are opposed to the torture and consumption of dogs and cats.
If you want to help fight the grisly South Korean dog and cat meat trade and make a difference in South Korea, here are a few quick actions you can take that could save millions of dogs and cats each year.
Ulsan Ulju-gun Mayor Lee Seon-Ho
Ulsan Ulju County became a Friendship City to Třebíč, Czech Republic, in 2018.
In Ulsan Ulju County, there are countless dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, and restaurants where the dogs, who have been tortured their entire lives, end up being slaughtered in the most inhumane ways, such as by electrocution, hanging or beating; and then thrown into boiling water – sometimes while they are still alive. In many places, dogs are being killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs; and this takes place in broad daylight. In addition, many abandoned and stolen former pets end up in this industry and are subject to the same cruelty.

A Search Engine reveals the sickening scale of Ulsan Ulju County’s dog meat demand.
Two searches on Naver (the most popular search engine in Korea) – one was for so-called “Health Centers,” which commonly sell dog elixirs and cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju), and the second one was for “dog meat restaurants” – resulted in dozens of Health Centers and dog meat restaurants in the vicinity of Ulsan Ulju County.
Even if half of these ‘Health’ Food Centers and restaurants serve dog and cat ‘ingredients’ in one form or another, imagine how many dog/cat slaughterhouses must be present in Ulsan Ulju County to supply these outlets.
There are laws in South Korea against selling dogs and cats for consumption, yet these laws are blatantly ignored.

Dear Mayor Pavel Pacal and Třebíč City Council members:
We ask you to please watch the videos from South Korea’s dog meat industry:

Do you think Třebíč should be a Friendship City to any city that allows dogs and cats to be tortured and eaten by people?
In Ulsan Ulju County, there are numerous dog meat markets, shops, farms, dog slaughterhouses, dozens of dog meat restaurants, and so-called “Health Centers” serving soup made of dog meat as an elixir. Dogs suffer their entire lives in filthy, feces encrusted raised wire cages in utter misery, only to be slaughtered in the most horrific ways. They are killed by electrocution, hammer strikes to their head and necks, being hung, being beaten to death, having their throats slit, being burned alive with a blowtorch, or thrown into a vat of boiling water while still alive. In many places, dogs are killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs who tremble with terror. These poor dogs are often burned alive in their cages, unable to escape. Also, people’s beloved pets are often stolen and sold to these businesses, where they meet the same horrific fate. Dogs and puppies who died of diseases are tossed away like garbage, often left in front of cages to rot while the mother dogs watch and cry out in despair for their dead babies.
The Korean internet searches resulted in dozens of Health Centers which commonly sell dog/cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju) and dog meat restaurants in Ulsan Ulju County.
Would you please urge Ulsan Ulju County Mayor Lee Seon-Ho to close down all illegal dog farms and slaughterhouses, markets, truckers, and restaurants that serve their products? An online petition calling for your support in ending the horrendous dog and cat meat cruelty in Ulsan Ulju County is in progress: https://chng.it/rcMzwjjG.
On behalf of all the animals suffering unimaginable cruelty in the dog and cat meat industry, we thank you and await your reply.
Sincerely,
Hello, I’m calling to speak to someone in the Mayor’s Office to ask for their help on an important issue regarding your Friendship City, Ulsan Ulju County in South Korea.
If I could explain: Dog-meat consumption is currently being practiced in that city, even though it is illegal under South Korean Law – but the laws are not enforced. The dog and cat meat trades involve extreme and widespread animal cruelty, and the animals suffer unimaginable pain and distress. They cannot speak for themselves, so I am calling on their behalf. And, I believe that your city would wish to be made aware of this issue, as you would not want to affiliate with a city where illegal and immoral torture is being carried out on any animal, and particularly not on ones that are loyal, trusting creatures, which look up to us humans as their guardians.
This illegal industry is being allowed to continue by Ulsan Ulju County authorities – even though there is growing opposition from pet guardians across South Korea and worldwide.
So, I am asking you to please speak with your counterparts in Ulsan Ulju County to urge them to enforce their laws, not ignore them, show compassion to their companion animals, and respect their citizens by bringing this cruel industry to an end.
I know that South Korea has many beautiful, admirable, and noble practices and customs worth preserving, but this is not one of them.
Thank you for your time and understanding.
No matter where you live, PLEASE SHARE these actions with your friends, especially those who live in Třebíč! 🙏
Share this:
Ei koirat ja kissat ole mitään lihakarjaa, ne ovat lemmikkejä ja niitä pitää rakastaa eikä syödä. Lopettakaa heti tuo kauhea julmuus lemmikeille! Dogs and cats are not cattle of any kind, they are pets and should be loved and not eaten. Stop that horrible cruelty on pets right away!
Help
Please this must stop. Dogs are not food 5hey are family
Keep the pressure on. I have just also created many different Gmail addresses to email the council members.
Do not become complacent. WE are the voice for these beautiful Dogs and Cats.
There will come a day when the Dog and Cat Meat Industry ceases to end, with the support of all those who care about Animals.
Don’t leave it to others to petition and fight for the rights of the Dogs and Cats. Just one petition a day that is signed by you can make a huge difference.
Keep the Dogs and Cats and all those good people in the world who help to rescue them in your daily prayers.
Thank You!
The whole thing is disgusting, shame on all of them and the ones who look on and do nothing.
The emails I send to the government and mayor etc cannot be delivered, they all come back as blocked at their end, does anyone else have this problem?
Dear Linda,
Below is from our FAQ page: https://koreandogs.org/faq-koreandogs-org/
🐶 I have sent emails to addresses given on your web pages, but many of them ‘bounce’ or have some other message saying they cannot be delivered. Why is this?
There could be several reasons why your emails are returned or not delivered. Your returned email will indicate why the email returned, such as “Message blocked,” “The receiver denied your mail.” We suggest separating your personal email from the petition mailing email account. You can also set up multiple email accounts on Gmail for petition email sending.
In addition, the sources from where we have collected these email addresses could be out of date or incorrect; or may have changed since we collected this information and listed it on our website. We do try our best to keep up-to-date information, but, as you can appreciate, it is not always possible to reflect these changes.
The e-People petition is the most effective of all your actions, so please try doing that today. This will never bounce back, and you will always get a response from the Korean government. http://www.e-People.go.kr
We also urge everyone to pass on your message by sending postal letters and making telephone calls. Telephoning is particularly effective as the message cannot be so easily ‘ignored.’
