My story

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

Location: Korea



Introducing the Enchanting Pinocchio: A Tale of Resilience and Love!



Once upon a time, in the heart of the Korean City Shelter, a magical tale began. Amidst a litter of ten siblings, there was a charming and affectionate boy named Chups, whom we now fondly call Pinocchio. His journey started with a touch of hardship, as he and his siblings were rescued without their mother as mere babies. One by one, his siblings found their forever homes, leaving Pinocchio as the last chapter of this fairy tale waiting to unfold.



Pinocchio possesses a unique charm – his lower jaw, shorter than his top jaw, a congenital trait that adds to his enchanting character. As with any fairy tale hero, he comes with his own special needs. Gentle care is required when it comes to treats and bones, but oh, the joy he brings when taking those carefully chosen bites! His jaw gives him a distinctive touch, making picking up treats a whimsical dance, adding a pinch of magic to his daily routine.



Approaching the world with cautious curiosity, Pinocchio may seem shy at first, but give him a moment, and you'll unveil a heart full of sociable warmth. He thrives with patience and time, adapting seamlessly to new environments and faces. Loud movements and sounds might stir his apprehension, yet he rarely lets out a bark – his voice is reserved for expressing his feelings of discontent or fear.



When it comes to adventures, Pinocchio is an eager participant. His walks are strolls through wonder, his recall impeccable. The chill in the air makes him long for the warmth of a loving embrace, especially after long walks on frosty days – a hero deserving of pampering, indeed! He's even enrolled in the prestigious school of doggy daycare, where he mingles with other pups, capturing hearts with his endearing nature.



While water may not be his favorite element, Pinocchio has mastered the art of bath time. He braves the bubbles with a heart full of courage, just like the heroes of old. Paw-wiping, nail clipping, and teeth brushing are his allies, rendering him ever-ready for royal gatherings or impromptu adventures.



In the silence of the night, Pinocchio rests peacefully in his crate, mastering commands like Sit, Down, Paw, Wait, and House. His foster family's love shines through, guiding him towards his happily ever after. As a character worth following, you can catch glimpses of his enchanted life on his Foster Instagram, @pongxdang.



And so, the tale of Pinocchio, the brave and endearing pup, unfolds. A story of resilience, love, and finding one's place in a world filled with wonders and challenges. If you seek to complete this magical tale, to add the missing piece to Pinocchio's journey, open your heart and your home to him. Your love will undoubtedly transform this enchanting pup's story into a fairy tale beyond compare.
