This dog shoes which I purchased from Korean website (gmarket.com) seem to be rediculously uncomfortable. However, more shockingly, many sellers of pet products in this website use real animals as model. I can see many many animals wearing clothes, hats, shoes, sunglasses, etc. under strong indoor lights. I am sure they never concern about animals' health because animals are just a fitting model and they can buy and throw animals anytime.
Just for comparison I search similar products on Ebay and many sellers use dolls instead of live animals at least.
I go to Korean church in the US. I have asked some elders about dogs (e.g., dog meat, training, adoption, etc.). And my conclusion is this: they are still very Korean although they have lived long long years. They just don't (can't) eat in the US but still think pet as a materials or things we can do whatever we want (kill, play, cook, whatever).
