Additional adoption info

All our dogs fly from Korea to the US when their adoptions are finalized. Therefore, we can not provide meet and greets. All adopters must agree to surrender the pets BACK to Welcome Paws if the adopter no longer wants the pet. All adopters must agree to provide periodic update of the adopted pet. Instagram account is highly recommended. All adopters must sign up for GPS tracker for 6 months to avoid losing pets.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs fly from Korea to the US when their adoptions are finalized. Therefore, we can not provide the "meet and greet." Multiple video clips will be provided and we will help you walk through the steps to reassure the adopted dog and the adopter are the best match for each other. Some dogs are available for meet and greet if the dogs are fostered in the US.

More about this rescue

WELCOME PAWS: KOREAN DOG RESCUE is a registered nonprofit charity organization run by all-volunteers who are dedicated to the animal welfares.

We rescue stray, neglected and abused animals, city sheltered animals and dog meat trade animals in South Korea. All of our pets are cared for by loving foster homes and receiving complete medical cares before they are ready to meet their FURever families. We find them best fitted home in the United States, Canada, and South Korea.

Furthering our cause is the most important goal of our organization. We seek to support, empower, and provide high quality resources and educations to our adopters. Our success isn’t measured in terms of wealth or profit margin, but by the value we provide to those we serve.
