Whenever someone entered their kennel, they cowered, shook, and cry, falling over each other.
The puppies had to be tranquilized to be spayed and neutered. In South Korea alone, around 2 million dogs are killed every year to become meat.

In fact, it seeps right into their bones, making it hard for them to know when they’re finally safe.
We’ve seen too many cases of puppies arriving in the U.S. to begin their lives — and then just freezing up completely.
Buying the animals from the market does not stop the people from raising more dogs for consumption.
They’ll sell their current stock to you, turn around and raise more to sell for the Chinese table. You need to educate these people not to eat dog meat.
In South Korea, around 2 million dogs are killed every year for the meat trade; an industry that people like Kim, through Save Korean Dogs, has been chipping away at in recent years.

But even these puppies will eventually find themselves in real homes. After all, we’ve seen countless cases of dogs going from a cramped cage in South Korea …
How do they know helping hands aren’t the hurting kind? So sad. How can anyone mistreat these babies? Anyone who mistreats animals should be punished.
