The last person to be saved from a meat farm, Robin is reluctant to leave his kennel since he still has scars from his prior life that indicate its aftereffects

Robin was the last of fifty canines to be rescued from a meat farm and dog abattoir located in Yongin, South Korea.

His entire existence altered the instant he broke free and took his first steps outside of his cage, even if he was unaware of it at the time. The fact that dog meat is still traded in some regions of the world is regrettable.

All defenseless animals who suffer at the hands of people ought to be shown love and respect.

“On this rescue, we worked with South Korean animal rights organizations to stop all 50 dogs from being put to death after the government shut the facility down.”

The dogs were discovered in clean, metal cages devoid of food and water. Humane Society International/Korea, LIFE, Korean K9 Rescue, and Yongin Animal Care Association came in to help save all of the dogs in coordination with the local authorities.

The largest dog abattoir in South Korea, Taepyeong, closed in 2018, while Busan’s Gupo dog meat market shuttered in 2019.

In October 2020, the mayor of Seoul proclaimed the nation’s capital to be “dog slaughter-free.” Meanwhile, the country’s top court decided in 2019 that a dog farmer who electrocuted puppies had violated the Animal Protection Act.

 

The ruling might have significant ramifications for a sector of the economy that almost exclusively uses electrocution as a method of execution.
