[UPDATE] Cheong Wa Dae (Korea’s Presidential House) to Respond to Petition Calling for the Rescue of Retired Working Dogs Used in Lab Experiments!

Big thank you goes out to all of you who have signed the petitions! The Korea Bizwire reported on May 17, “A Cheong Wa Dae petition calling on authorities to rescue retired detection dogs being used for experiments at the Seoul National University (SNU) has collected more than 200,000 signatures, reaching the minimum requirement to receive an official response from the presidential office…..

The controversy has led the university to shut down the ‘smart detection dog development project’ led by Lee, and suspend his position as the head of the SNU Institute of Laboratory Animal Resources.

The Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at SNU reported on May 9 that Lee brought in ‘May’ and other detection dogs without the committee’s approval, and conducted tests that were not stipulated in the research proposal.

Seoul Gwanak Police Station is currently investigating allegations made against Lee.”

We must continue this campaign and keep the pressure on SNU until they stop the cruel and unethical experiments on sentient animals. Thank you!
