South Korea’s Conglomerates (called “Jaebol”) make up the majority of the country’s economy and employ millions of workers, giving these companies enormous power and influence over the government as well as the people. With such a large number of South Korea’s 50 million residents working for, or related to someone who works for, these companies, adopting a corporate policy against dog meat consumption means saving hundreds of thousands of dogs each year from nightmarish brutality and slaughter. For years, we have been writing to the Jaebol asking for their cooperation in ending this extreme cruelty towards dogs in their country and so far they have not responded. Please add your voice and sign the petition calling for the adoption of company policy banning dog meat consumption. Click to sign!
These South Korean companies enjoy the profits from exporting their products and services to us. They arrogantly ignore the anguish and suffering we feel as a result of our knowing about their inhumane and barbaric treatment of the animals that we love and respect as companions. It’s time they stop ignoring those of us who help support their very comfortable lives. Please call South Korea’s largest companies today! Without their participation, ending dog meat cruelty in South Korea is NOT POSSIBLE! Thank you!
BOYCOTT!

Talking Points
Two and a half million South Korean dogs are electrocuted, hanged, or beaten to death each year. They are killed in the cruelest ways imaginable, because many South Koreans believe the insidious myth that the more an animal suffers, the tastier the meat and that the medical properties will be enhanced. Thousands of cats are also slaughtered for soups and so-called “health” tonics. They are thrown into boiling water while still alive.
The practice of eating dogs is not widely accepted in South Korea. It gained popularity after the South Korean War. The practice continues to thrive with the aid of greedy restaurateurs, meat dealers, and butchers.
Over the last decade, many in South Korea have embraced the notion of dogs and cats as animal companions. But we must take action to persuade the South Korean government to legalize a ban on dog and cat meat and forever stop this technically illegal, corrupt, and sordid industry.
It is appalling that dogs and cats should be kept in filthy crates, forced to watch their cage mates being tortured and slaughtered. Eyewitnesses have reported dogs being literally torn apart while still alive, their tormentors saying that the more prolonged the torment of death, the better the taste. This attitude toward any living being is at best unforgivable.
