Here's what the humans have to say about me:
🐾 Meet Nimo, currently in S. Korea🐾

❤ Age: 2018 Oct(estimated)
❤ Gender: Female
❤ Weight: 3.5 kg (8 lbs)
❤ Breed: Medium haired Chihuahua
❤ Health: Fully vaccinated, spayed, history of mammary tumor & pyometra surgery
[PERSONALITY]
💖 People-friendly – affectionate and trusting with adults
💖 Kid-friendly – comfortable and gentle with children
💖 Dog-friendly – interacts well with other dogs
💖 Cat-unknown – no confirmed interactions with cats
💖 Low–medium energy – calm and easygoing (3–4/10)
[TRAINING & HABITS]
✅ Potty training – still makes mistakes, needs continued guidance
✅ Leash skills – enjoys walks, no leash pulling, reacts calmly when meeting dogs
✅ Grooming – accepts bath, brushing, ear cleaning, tooth brushing, and nail clipping well
✅ Kennel training – comfortable staying in a kennel
✅ No sensitivity to handling – fine with being touched anywhere
✅ No escape tendencies – may want to follow people out of the gate, but no strong escape drive
✅ Destructiveness – unknown, has not shown destructive behavior so far
✅ Prey drive – no known chasing of birds or cats during walks
[RESCUE STORY]
This sweet girl was rescued from a puppy meel and ended up in a city shelter, left behind as an older dog that nobody wanted to adopt. She was placed on the euthanasia list simply because of her age. Out of deep compassion, she was rescued just in time and is now preparing for adoption. Despite her past, she shows only love, trust, and a gentle spirit. She’s ready to start a new chapter in life with a forever family who will cherish her golden years.

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.
