Gangdong-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Lee Su-hee) announced on the 6th that the "Seoul Companion Dog Patrol," which began operating nationwide for the first time last month, is gaining great popularity among residents.


The Companion Dog Patrol is a resident-participation crime prevention patrol where dog owners walk around the neighborhood together, discovering and reporting potential crime risks or daily inconveniences. Thanks to the dogs' cute appearance, it does not cause discomfort to residents, and the regular safety checks reinforce the perception that patrols are strengthened, which helps prevent crimes and accidents.



The Gangdong-gu Companion Dog Patrol has been active in various ways, such as finding missing individuals with intellectual disabilities and reporting damaged pavement blocks.
