My story

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

Milli is 2 years and 13 lbs

When Milli first came into the city shelter, he probably had no idea what he would go through. He was adopted quickly, but also returned quickly when the adopters realized Milli had luxating patella. Milli’s health declined rapidly while he was neglected in the shelter. He couldn’t get treatments he desperately needed, and had to endure all pain in fear alone.
When we rescued him, his eyes and legs were in terrible shape. Luckily, surgeries went well, and he can now walk, and although he lost vision in one eye, he was able to recover his vision in the other.
Milli is housetrained and is full of love! He may need some monitoring on his health, but he is young and loving life. We are searching for the special someone who will provide TLC that Milli deserves and needs so much.
Milli is UTD on his shots and is neutered. His #adoption fee is $350.
*Milli will be fostered in Lisle, Chicago. We are hoping to find a home for him within 1 hour distance from Lisle. If you would like to #adopt him, please email donghaepaws@gmail.com with a bit of information about yourself (e.g. your experience as a dog owner, your family and/or other pets, etc.) and your phone number. A HDP volunteer will promptly respond to your email. Thank you!
*** We typically do not adopt to homes with children under 8 years old. A home check is mandatory before adoption.

Prior to rescue, many of our dogs have experienced minimal socialization and it takes time for them to learn about life as a family pet. Common skills such as house training and leash walking may often take a little extra time. Patience, understanding and a gentle hand are a must. The great news is, most of these dogs come around rather quickly and being a part of their rehabilitation is an extremely rewarding experience.

*** About us ***
Hope For Donghae Paws(HDP) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to bringing rescue dogs from Korea to the US and finding permanent homes for them. It is true there are many animal lovers in Korea, but still many dogs suffer and are killed for food.
Our mission is to find US homes for mixed-breed dogs whose chances of being adopted in their native Korea are very low.
