South Korea Bans Dog Meat Trade | Los Angeles News
Description
South Korea is shutting down its dog meat trade by 2027, banning breeding, slaughtering, and selling dogs for consumption — a historic shift as pet ownership rises and public support surges. Though once seen as a traditional dish with health claims, dog meat consumption has plummeted, with 90% of Koreans now rejecting it. The law includes a three-year transition, with penalties for violations, while the government prepares to assist affected businesses.
