2022 Chobok (the first of three Boknal) is coming.

A large-scale protest will be held on July 16 in Chobok to condemn the incompetent government for neglecting the illegal dog food industry and shifting responsibility.

In 2020, the Supreme Court ruled that slaughtering dogs with an electric iron skewer is cruel. Still, the South Korean government has neglected to take action for the past three years, and dogs are brutally killed each year.

Please join us to crack down, punish the dog meat industry, and bring an end to dog meat consumption!

The South Korean government is turning a blind eye to the suffering of millions of dogs in Korea. The government authorities will do nothing to enforce their own Animal Protection Law unless the illegal dog farms are reported and exposed to the public through TV media.
