My story

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

💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟

Meet Gowoon🧡
💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_

1⃣ Health Condition
* Spayed.
* Microchipped, and fully recovered from heartworm.

2⃣ Rescue Story
* At the end of 2021, Gowoon gave birth to seven puppies at the Gimje City Shelter. She and her puppies were rescued together. All of her puppies have since gone to foster or adoptive homes, but Gowoon has remained at the center, waiting for a family of her own.

3⃣ Basic Information
* With People: Is wary and still not very used to human touch. May approach familisr people on guard to get treats but run away when they move suddenly or have an eye contact with her. Sudden and rough movements may scare her, and lead to defensive nipping. It is necessary to take time to touch her, so she can become accustomed to it.
* With Dogs: Gets along well with calm dogs with similar temperaments. Likes friends who approach her quietly and gently. Recently mingles well with canine friends.
* Separation Anxiety: Enjoys her alone time. Becomes more active when she’s by herself.
* Potty Training: Currently only does outdoor potty at our center.
* Hygiene: Is not yet comfortable with human handling, so baths and brushing are still on hold.
* Walks: Has no walking experience yet. Gets scared when someone approaches with a leash, so she refuses it for now.
* Car Sickness: Is calm in the car, and sits quietly without motion sickness.
* Barks when hearing loud noises outside. Also barks if she is outside alone while people are out of her sight and hears them moving around inside the kennels.
* Very occasionally shows defensive nipping due to fear, but this has been decreasing over time.
* Is afraid of loud noises and people who move too quickly. It’s best to move slowly and calmly around her so she can feel safe.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All our dogs fly from South Korea to the US and Canada when their adoptions are finalized so the adopters cannot go through "meet and greet."
But once applicants pass zoom interview, we will connect adopter to foster team for the most up to date news as well as photos and videos. The adopter can post any questions and can make video call as well.
Please hold our dog's hands so that they can forget about the painful past and live happily.
"Adopting an abandoned dog will not change the world but this can change the dog's world"

More about this rescue

ADOGS(Adopt Dogs), a non-profit organization, is an abandoned dog foster/adoption organization launched by an individual volunteer group that has rescued, fostered, adopted dogs since 2018.

We are conducting rescue, foster, adopt from South Korea rural shelter. We also rescue dogs irregularly from illegal dog farms or any other places that need help.
We rescue large and small dogs of all breeds, including dogs with special needs.

Although we can't save all abandoned dogs in the world, we are doing our best to the dogs in front of us so that their lives can be changed like any other pets.

In expanding our search for adoption leads, we’ve broadened our mission: To bring at-risk dogs across the Pacific to loving stateside families.

Due to limited demand for large-breed dogs in Korea, arranging for local adoption has proven almost impossible. Instead, we seek to bring these persecuted dogs to the United States where dogs have a higher chance for adoption and survival.
