Man Kills Neighbour’s Dog And Invites Him To Eat His Dog’s Meat

In a heinous incident, a farmer in South Korea killed neighbour’s dog and later invited his him to eat the dog’s meat for dinner.

A 62-year-old unnamed man confessed about the crime and told that the owner’s neighbour who killed his dog was irritated by the dog’s constant barking in the street. He then threw a stone at the 2-year-old Welsh Corgi and the dog lost consciousness.

“After the dog passed out, he claims, he strangled the animal and cooked it, a local detective in Pyeongtaek told AFP. The man then invited his neighbours to share the meal, including the father of the dog-owning family,” he said.

The incident came to light when the owner’s daughter raised an online plea requesting for public support to ensure that the accused be punished sternly. A petition initiated in the case has so far gained over 15,000 signatures.

“We had been all around the town, handing out leaflets containing the dog’s picture, phone number and rewards of one million won ($940), in order to find the missing dog”, the daughter told AFP by phone, asking for her family’s name to be kept anonymous.

“When I reached the man’s house, which is just three doors down from ours, he expressed sympathy, promising to let us know if he found the dog”.

After the dog went missing, the suspect visited the owner the following day. The accused and the owner shared some drinks together and the suspect consoled him over the missing of the dog.

Every year millions of dogs get consumed in South Korea. Animal activists have pulled up campaigns to ban dog consumption and have levied fines over 20 million under newly strengthened laws.
