The dog farm specified above is suspected to be an unregistered facility and has been contributing to the pollution of the environment and thus requires urgent administrative measures and immediate shutdown.
1. Under the current enforcement decree of the Act on the Management and Use of Livestock Excreta, any dog farm at least 60 square meters in size is subject to registration as a waste emission facility. Any illegal dog farms operating without proper registration must be ordered to suspend operation and close under Articles 17 and 18 of the Act. Administrative actions such as imposing fines must be issued according to Article 50 and the enforcement decree Article 20 of the same law.
2. Illegal dog slaughter may violate Article 8 of the Animal Protection Act. If a dog farm has committed an illegal dog slaughter, they will be sentenced to less than two years in prison and fined up to 20 million won. Please inspect the dog farm site to check if illegal dog slaughter is committed and report it to the police.
3. According to Articles 25 and 46 of the Waste Control Act, food waste feed recycling requires that dog farms be equipped with appropriate facilities and must be registered and authorized by the municipal government. Please inspect the dog farm to check if the food waste is being fed to dogs and take appropriate administrative actions under Article 66 for violations.
4. In the case of temporary buildings: Dog farms must obtain approval according to the Building Act Article 14 (Building Reports) and Article 20 (Temporary Buildings). Please remove the building if the building is unauthorized.
5. If sewage contamination is found, private sewage treatment facilities must be reported according to Article 34, Paragraph 2 of the Sewerage Act. After inspecting the discharge of manure and wastewater into the public water, please take administrative measures under Article 77 of the Sewerage Act.
6. If household waste is found, unlawful dumping and loading of household waste violate Article 13 of the Waste Control Act. After investigating the accumulation of household waste in the vicinity, please take measures under Article 66-1 of the Waste Control Act.
Our worldwide campaign urging your city to shut down all illegal dog farms and slaughterhouses are in progress. https://koreandogs.org/jeju-dog-farms/
We urge you to take quick and strong administrative measures to address the violation of laws and shut down all these illegal dog farms immediately!

3) 폐기물 관리법 제25조 및 제46조에 따르면 음식물류 폐기물 사료 재활용은 적정 시설 장비를 갖추고 지자체 인허가를 받거나 신고하도록 되어 있습니다. 음식물류 폐기물을 개들에게 급여하는지 확인해 주시고, 위반 시 제66조 조항에 따라 행정조치 바랍니다.
4) 가설 건축물일 경우 : 건축법 제 14조(건축신고) 및 제 20조(가설건축물) 허가 후 견사를 지어야 합니다. 무단 증축된 건축물일 경우 철거 조치 바랍니다.

The torture of innocent animals is barbaric and does not belong in a civilised society.decent normal human beings wouldn’t do it.its sick.

Disgusting, not necessary in a modern educated world.
Disgusting cruelty, country worse than third world.
Shame on the government of South Korea! Shame on the local governments and health departments! This abomination is an abscess on your society. Why do you allow it to continue?
As the Korean Government you should use your Power to stop this misery and cruelty to helpless Animals cannot defend themselves. What are you teaching your children and future generations that this unnecceary killing of innocent animals is acceptable. It is not. Those that are involved in the brutal murder of defenceless animals should be prosecuted and imprisoned for there act of cruelty to animals.

Ban this foul trade Korean politicians. Stop procrastinating. The illegal dog meat trade shames Korea. Ban it!
Please stop the torture and murder of theses sensitive beautiful animals. Unbelievably cruel and barbaric
Please stop the torture and cruelty! it not human !!!
Please stop this Cruelty ASAP, this peoples are COLD BLOODED !!!
S&S. I am fed up with the continual rationalizations of the Korean government to continue this foul and corrupt trade inflicted on loving companion animals. My assumption is that the trade continues, partially through indifference, except for the work of Korean activists who wish it banned, but more likely because defending the atrocity as a legitimate trade buys Korean politicians votes.
Show morality, ban the dog meat trade and join the 21st C..
Shame on Korea would turn to respect if politicians would end this atrocity for all time!
Stop this vile trade, the dog farm at Jeju I hope was shut down and the owner prosecuted – what right has the likes of him got to go stealing people’s beloved pets from the streets to be exploited in this horrific way. SHAME ON THEM !!
