Hundreds of dogs will no longer spend their days in tiny, filthy wire cages in this house of horrors while waiting, terrified, to be sold to dog butchers.
In a win for dogs suffering in S. Korea's brutal meat trade, Nakwon Auction
House -- the largest known dog meat auction in the country -- is CLOSED FOR
GOOD.
The closure follows Lady Freethinker's undercover investigation and petition
-- covered by People Magazine -- and local campaigning by partners Save
Korean Dogs.
This victory is only possible because of YOU. Thank you for speaking out to
save these dogs from slaughter, and supporting LFT's fight against the cruel
dog meat trade.
Hundreds of dogs will no longer spend their days in tiny, filthy wire cages
in this house of horrors while waiting, terrified, to be sold to dog
butchers.
We thank the more than 46,000 supporters who signed LFT’s petition demanding
this horrifying, illegal auction be put out of business!
Undercover video released by LFT captured more than 200 terrified dogs in
cramped wire cages at the Nakwon Auction House in S. Korea in Oct. 2020.
The footage sparked public outrage, a call to demolish the auction house,
and evidence the local government needed to shut down the illegal sales.
The city of Namyangju announced recently that the auction house is closed,
the dogs are removed, and the owner was fined heavily and warned by
authorities to stop his operations or risk more fines.
This is an important victory, and we couldn’t have done it without your
support! But our work is far from over. Dogs continue to die every day for
the horrific dog meat trade -- and we won’t stop until every dog is safe.
