Freedom Walk 2023
Join us for the 2023 Freedom Walk – our annual event in which we walk to raise funds and awareness for dog meat trade victims.
Our Freedom Walk is open to everyone and anyone, anywhere! You do not need to be a FKD adopter or dog owner; all you have to do is love one.
This year, we are hoping to meet our goal of raising $10,000 to continue to support our dog meat farm rescues who continue their rehabilitation journey. 100% of all proceeds will be put towards the health, medical, and training needs of our rescues.

Why Join?
It is estimated over 2 million dogs in South Korea alone are slaughtered for meat each year. Many are brutally tortured prior, as it is believed the adrenaline released from the stress of torture makes the meat tastier and enhances nutritional and healing properties.
To date, Free Korean Dogs has self-initiated the shutdown of 3 dog meat farms, collaborated with local partners in Korea to save hundreds of dogs from the meat trade and other at-risk circumstances, and facilitated adoption for over 1,500 dogs. However, rescue takes a village. Our dogs cannot do it without us, and we cannot do it without you.
By shedding light on their horrible practice through education and awareness, we hope to create a shift from cruelty to compassion both locally and across borders.
