As a dog lover this sickens me. I don't have any idea if anything can be done about it and I know some of you will say "it's just a dog" and children are starving all over the world... etc, but my dogs and pets in general mean a lot to me. Think of how you would feel if the govt forced this on you. How dreadful. My heart goes out to these people.
I've included just one link to a news story about this so you will know I'm not making this up. N. Korea rounds up people’s pets due to national food shortage: report

Read about it this morning.
N Korea is a brutal dictatorship and every living creature living there suffers. |

He told me many people from North Korea are disfigured from smallpox. N Korea's army is large because they are the only people who receive food rations, meager as they are. |

They are probably killing more than dogs... have you noticed how many Covid cases are “officially” in North Korea? You are talking about a Communist (Marxist) country.

What I found interesting is the article did not say why they are killing dogs.
Is it for meat? Is it for something to do? I think it is wrong to kill dogs but if you are starving and no other choice to be had could understand that. As the old movie went "They shoot horses, don they". Here dogs are pets in Asia they are often a source of meat. Not saying it is right just what happens. |

East Asia have been eating dogs for ever. Different culture, different point of view.
If I was starving, I would eat anything that walked, crawled, swam or slithered. |

Peruvians eat guinea pigs, whereas we would consider them pets. They run around the kitchen eating the scraps, then become a useful addition to the evening meal.

'They have been eating dog for eons. Don't think the local PETA branch would stand a chance! They may gain a foothold in the cities, but in the country, you eat what's available!!

Get over it dog in a mammal, sheep are cute we eat lamb. It’s common to eat baby goats around Easter for some nationalities and the way they treat calf’s for veal.

It’s generally thought that the Aztecs and other Native American groups bred chihuahuas, turkeys, and guinea pigs for eating. I like dogs a lot, but I’ve known a few that deserve to be stewed, some of them particularly yappy and nippy chihuahuas. (Not that I would eat them.) In a lot of countries, dogs, like pigs, primarily eat garbage people don’t want. It’s sad, but true. (Well, in some countries that’s what poor children eat, too.) My dog only eats a quarter cup of food twice a day. I have friends, though, with three big labs that eat in a day what my dog weighs. In times of hunger, a lot of people watching their children starve resent the Communist party elite with their well-fed pets. |
