My story

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

Meet Eun-Gyo – A Playful, Affectionate Boy Ready to Begin Again!
He was rescued just in time from a tragic fate after being sold to a dog butcher in Korea.

❤ Age: 1–2 years (Estimated)
❤ Gender: Male (Neutered)
❤ Weight: 37 lbs (17 kg)
❤ Breed: Jindo/Shiba Mix

✅ Personality & Behavior:

✔ People-Friendly: Affectionate and loves attention from both women and men
✔ Dog-Friendly: Loves playing with other dogs (can be enthusiastic with small dogs, loves greeting big dogs with kisses)
✔ Kid-Friendly: Not yet tested
✔ Cats: Not yet tested
✔ Aggression: None
✔ Energy Level: Moderate (3/5) – Enjoys playtime but also settles well

✅ Training & Habits:

✔ Leash Trained: Walks well, but slightly hesitant with harness at first
✔ Crate Trained: Yes – settles and sleeps well, though may whine briefly
✔ House Training: Fully trained – uses pee pads and goes outdoors
✔ Barking: Alerts when strangers enter, but no excessive barking
✔ Escape Tendencies: None – comes when called
✔ Handling: Loves being touched, petted, and cuddled
✔ Destructive Behavior: Likes to chew on wood, so chew toys are recommended
✔ Resource Guarding: None, but prefers to eat separately due to strong appetite

✅ Is Eun-Gyo obsessed with Food or Toys?

✔ He loves food and tends to be eager at mealtimes – best to feed separately if with other dogs
✔ Plays with toys appropriately

Ideal Home:

A yard would be a great bonus for outdoor play, but not required

A home with another dog of similar size and energy would be ideal

Apartment living is perfectly fine with enough daily exercise

💖 Eun-Gyo is a true survivor with a heart full of love.
He’s playful, affectionate, and ready to share his life with a family who will cherish him.
Could you be the one to give Eun-Gyo the second chance he deserves?

Adopt Eun-Gyo and let him fill your home with joy and companionship!
