Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Apply to ADOPT - cut and paste this link into your web browser: www.welcomehomedogrescue.org/adoption/application-to-adopt-a-companion/.
Apply to FOSTER: www.welcomehomedogrescue.org/how-you-can-help/foster/
Foster parents have the first option to adopt. We will provide all you need to foster. We need a foster parent starting April 18. Must not have another dog or cat.
Weight: 8 bs
Age: 5 months
Personality: Very sweet, affectionate, active, playful
Coat: Medium length, silky, soft, was matted when first rescued from the shelter, so some mats had to be clipped out. Hair is growing back in nicely.
Training: Knows sit. Foster mom is working on basic obedience skills with her, but a puppy training class should be completed by the new owner.
Potty trained: Yes, but not all the way. She is still a puppy so frequent trips outside are a must.
Health: Excellent. Not spayed yet as she was too young. When she is spayed by the new owner, she should have her dewclaws removed.
History: Minky was rescued from an animal shelter in South Korea by our President, who was there on business. Minky was matted and dirty, so she was sent to a foster family who cleaned her up and cared for her until she could be sent to the US to find a forever home. Mixed breed dogs have a hard time getting adopted in Korea, so she was sent to California to find her American Dream.
Fostered in: Hawaiian Gardens
Type of home: Families with children or active person, since Minky has a lot of energy! Loving people who enjoy training a puppy. She is very friendly to everyone. Even though she is small, Minky should be walked daily.
Crate trained: YES
Good with Dogs: YES, but must be adopted to a home without cats or dogs for now until after May 3. Minky was given her rabies vaccine in Korea too early for CA law, so she received another rabies vaccination. She needs to not live with other pets for a 1 month period. She can still go outside and for walks
Good with Kids: YES
Good with Cats: Unknown
Adoption fee (non-refundable): $300
All dogs are fully vetted, tested for heartworm, microchipped, and up to date with vaccinations.
Our adoption process looks like this:
1. Adoption application review by WHDR board
2. Adoption application approval
3. Meet and greet
4. Home safety check
5. Final approval and adoption finalized
Our volunteers, donors and adopters mean the world to us! Without you, we couldn't do what we do - saving the lives of abused, neglected and abandoned dogs and providing them with a loving forever home.
