My story

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

Meet Roxy



 



Breed: Jindo mix



Age: 5 years old



Sex: Spayed female



Color: Brown



Weight: 20kg



Height (to shoulder): 54cm



 



Rescue Story



 



Roxy was rescued from a city shelter in August 2020 when she was just a 3-month-old puppy.



Sadly, she never found an adopter and has been living at the shelter ever since.



 



Despite growing up in a shelter, Roxy’s heart has stayed gentle and full of love. She’s now ready for her very first real home



 



Personality & Temperament



 



Roxy can be a little shy at first, but a few treats quickly melt her hesitation. Once she warms up, she enjoys gentle petting and will even show her belly to people she trusts.



She’s wonderful with children under 13 and allows being lifted or handled gently.



 



She greets unfamiliar dogs politely but doesn’t necessarily engage in play. She’s comfortable around dogs her size and tends to avoid conflict if another dog reacts.



 



When she sees cats on walks, she looks curiously but calmly follows her handler without pulling or chasing.



 



Energy Level & Daily Routine



 



Roxy has a moderate energy level — she enjoys her outdoor time and settles quietly afterward. She’s experienced on leash, walks beautifully without pulling, and loves following her person’s lead.



 



She doesn’t guard food, rarely barks, and enjoys a peaceful daily routine.



She’s house-trained for outdoor potty, though she gets anxious in a kennel or car, so she feels safest being held during transport.



 



A Kind and Gentle Soul



 



Roxy is calm, loving, and well-mannered — a sweet companion who simply needs time to adjust to a home environment after years in a shelter.



Her kind nature and patience make her easy to bond with, and she’s sure to bring warmth and quiet joy to any home.



 



Ideal Home:



A patient and caring family who can give Roxy the stability and affection she’s missed all her life. She’ll thrive in a calm environment where she can enjoy outdoor walks and cozy rest indoors.



 



Five years of waiting — now it’s her turn to be loved for the gentle heart she carries, not the pain she’s endured. 



Apply to foster or adopt to show her how beautiful the world can be.

More about this rescue

Adopt Korean Rescue is a volunteer-based federally registered not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted dogs in South Korea find a new home in Canada.

We love Korean dogs. Many of them live in chains, give birth on the side of the road, or wander around with their pups. Some of them get caught and end up at dog meat farms or high-kill shelters in South Korea. They luckily meet us just before euthanasia or after many years of living in dog meat farms. We exist to hold their paws and help them find a forever home in Canada full of joy and happiness.
