** Note: Mars is available for adoption in Toronto His flight from Korea to Toronto is scheduled for Feb 23.
Mars was born to a mom who was saved from the dog meat trade just before giving birth. This strong mom had four puppies soon after being rescued, and Mars is one of them.
Mars started a new life this spring at our partner's boarding house. There, he's shown how lively and fun he is. He's playful and friendly with other dogs, making him a popular pup among them.
Mars completed leash training at a dog school, showcasing his eagerness to learn and adapt. His intellectual curiosity pairs harmoniously with his natural charm, making him an ideal companion for those seeking both a playful and trainable furry friend.
But Mars' true magic shines when he's with people. Fearless in the face of strangers, he greets newcomers with a wagging tail and sparkling eyes, eager for the affection and head strokes he adores. His genuine warmth is a testament to his resilient spirit and his unwavering belief in the goodness of humans.
Mars' ideal home is one where he can flourish, a place where companionship is a priority. If you work from home or are enjoying retirement, Mars would thrive in your company. He longs for a playmate who'll cherish his energy and exuberance, spending quality time together. Your home could be the haven he's been waiting for, where he can leave behind his past hardships and embrace a future filled with love and joy.

Free Korean Dogs (FKD) is a registered charity in Canada (BN:80580 0166RR0001).
Founded in Toronto, Canada on July 1st, 2015, our organizations rescue dogs from Korea’s dog meat trade and other at-risk circumstances and find their forever loving homes in Canada and the US.
Millions of dogs are slaughtered for meat consumption in Korea every year. Most of them are kept in tiny, overcrowded cages in dog meat farms and provided no water or shelter from the elements, and given only scraps of waste to eat. It is also common practice for dogs to be brutally tortured prior to slaughter as it is believed to enhance flavor and nutritional healing properties, despite an overwhelming lack evidence to support these claims.
Korea is the only country in the world that commercially farms dogs for food. Lack of legislation regulating the Korean dog meat trade result in the lack of standards for safety or humane treatment. Simply speaking, dogs can be obtained by any means, whether stray or farmed, and treated in unfathomable inhumane manners without consequence. The dog meat trade in Korea is a legislative gray area and political landmine that nobody in power wants to address.
Our international rescue and adoption program saves over hundreds of dogs each year from the Korean dog meat trade and finds their homes in Canada. Since 2015, we have shut down two dog meat farm operations, rescued over two hundreds dogs from the dog meat trade, and found forever homes for over seven hundreds dogs rescued from euthanasia or the risk of being forced into the meat trade.
We also promote public awareness to create a cultural shift from cruelty to compassion for dogs in Korea through campaigns, protests, and events. Through rescue, rehabilitation, and education, we hope one day all dogs and animals can lead peaceful and happy lives.
