International Agreement to Prohibit
the Eating of Dogs and Cats 

In July 2019, WDA announced its convention campaign and launched a petition to garner public support, forming a global trend against such atrocity. Congressmen in the US as well as Members of Parliament

in the UK, Japan, Norway and Sweden pledged to back WDA’s convention. As Jeff Denham, former

US representative who introduced the ban on dog and cat meat in the US, said in his speech,

“It demonstrates our unity with other nations that have banned dog and cat meat and

bolster existing international efforts to crack down on the practice worldwide.”
