South Korea’s Longest-Running Dog Meat Restaurant Closes! (She only closed it because of animal advocates protesting and not as much business. Hope this owner and all who frequented her restaurant choke in their miserable sleep. ) As more and more people worldwide become aware of the plight for dog rights and the value of them as companions, the demand for their meat has drastically decreased, leading to the end of many business establishments. About 2.5 million dogs are consumed in South Korea every year, but that number is dropping thanks to many television shows that depict dogs as cute, sweet companions. People are seeing their value beyond the menu, and have lost their appetite for family recipes that have been passed down for generations. Oh Keum-il, owner of the restaurant Daegyo, which once served over 700 bowls of dog stew per day, is closing her doors for good. Many would stand in line for special dishes on certain days of the year, but animal activists would be standing right along with them, urging consumers not to eat the animals that make such excellent friends. lifewithdogs.tv/2014/08/south-koreas-longest-running-dog-meat-restaurant-closes/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+LifeWithDogs+%28Life+With+Dogs%29
