The Winter Olympics is shining a light on a common practice in South Korea that many people outside the country fine reprehensible. Horrific conditions for dogs followed by torturing killings, in order to meet the demands for dishes containing dog meat. The Humane Society International puts the figure at 2.5 million dogs bread and slaughter every year as food for South Koreans, who believe that dog meat has special medical properties. Reports from inside reveal that family pets also end up on dinner plates.

This is why I am not thrilled about the venue for the Olympics this year. Lord knows what we’ll find out. In Russia stray dogs were killed as ‘biological trash’ to pretty things up for visitors. 😦

I read someone discovered dogs being delivered for food here too. I guess right now it is not illegal. I believe there is a bill in Congress to stop it. It is definately a custom we don’t need.
Definately!
