My story

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

Woof! Woof! My name is Ian. I am 6 years old (Bichon Frise Boy) and weigh 4.3 kg. I was recently surrendered by my family in LA. However, due to their frequent travel, I am spending less time with my family. My pet parents feel terrible for me but can't blame them as they need to travel for work. I am looking for a pet parent who's available at least 80% of the time.

Previously, I was rescued by a volunteer auntie for @joeyandbailey in Korea in 2021. I was abused by a teenager and my pet parent. They just didn't want me around. They purposely hit and kicked me. I feel like they purchased me so that they can use me as a punching bag. It may sound a lot but I have no problem eating my favorite foods. Unfortunately, I was neglected by my own pet family and ended up extracting 9 teeth as they fed me nothing but leftovers.

I get along great with other furry friends. Felines? Not sure what they are and who they are? I never really had an opportunity to hang out with them. I love to cuddle and spend time with both people and furry friends. By the way, I am house-trained. I’m currently being fostered by my foster mom in Los Angeles, California. They are giving me the attention that I need. They understand I was abused by my previous owners and trying very hard to help me erase the dark past.

Should you be interested in adopting me as your new family member, please fill out our adoption application on our site to be considered as potential adopters. We highly encourage you to read our FAQs page on our site.
