Until now, there was no animal hospital specializing in dogs in Jindo County, causing inconvenience for farms to travel outside the area. However, with the hiring of this veterinarian, it is expected to provide convenience to Jindo dog farms and reduce their economic burden.

The Jindo Dog Medical Center was built in 2011 in Dongoe-ri, Jindo-eup, with the first floor housing the Jindo Dog Medical Center, the second floor containing offices and laboratories, and the third floor featuring a multipurpose auditorium, providing systematic management and medical care for Jindo dogs.

An official from the Jindo Dog Livestock Division said, “By hiring a specialist veterinarian, we aim to improve the management and protection system of Jindo dogs, resolve inconveniences faced by Jindo dog farms, and continue the pedigree management and prestigious status of the Jindo dog.” He added, “We plan to introduce additional diagnostic equipment in the future to provide high-quality medical services.”
