Dogs trapped in rusty bars find a man and bark.
The floor is full of feces and swarms of flies, so it’s impossible to find a clean spot.
In one corner there are bones and hair of a large dog.
This is an illegal breeding farm for dogs caught in Gangseo-gu, Busan.
The dogs are also in poor health.

The animal protection organization, which has checked the history of recent transactions, believes that it is highly likely that the dog was sold through another home breeding farm run by A, and plans to file a police complaint against A for violating the Act’s Animal Protection Rules.
