My story

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

Current Location: Korea 🇰🇷♡

🍂 Meet Gaeul — A Curious, Sweet, and Playful Boy 🍂


💗 Personality & Charm
Gaeul is a gentle and curious young boy who just needs a little time to warm up.
Once he feels safe, his bright, playful, and affectionate personality truly shines. 🌿

He enjoys both solo play and playing with other dogs, and he’s always ready to explore with his wagging tail.
He’s sweet, sociable, and loves human attention — the kind of puppy that will melt your heart once you get to know him. 💛

🐶 Great with other dogs — friendly and loves to play
🐱 Neutral toward cats (shows no strong reaction when seeing them from afar)
💬 Quiet boy — rarely barks
🤍 Comfortable being handled and touched

🏡 Living Habits
🚽 Potty trained: About 98% (occasional accident possible)
🛏️ Crate training: In progress
🐾 Walking: Learning to walk with a leash (non-reactive to people/dogs)
🚗 Car rides: Calm but gets mild motion sickness
⚡ Energy level: Medium-high (active but manageable)
🍽️ Eating habits: Eats well, not picky
🧸 Destructive behavior: None
🚪 Escape tendency: Needs attention at first in new environments
🏠 Yard: Not required but would enjoy one
🐕‍🦺 Lives well with other dogs
🏙️ Apartment living: Possible

📖 Rescue Story
Gaeul was rescued from the Pyeongtaek shelter just before euthanasia.
He was timid and unsure at first, but with consistent love and care, he began to open his heart and trust people again.
Now he’s ready to start a new chapter — one filled with love, safety, and family warmth. 💛

📸 A bright boy with a gentle soul, Gaeul is ready for his forever home.
He will bring joy, laughter, and affection to anyone lucky enough to call him family.
Let Gaeul’s next season of life be filled with love. 🌞

Additional adoption info

Post-Adoption Support and Check-Ins
After your dog has settled in, we will periodically check in with you to ensure the adjustment process is going smoothly. This is a time to discuss your dog’s progress and address any questions or concerns you may have.

Our team is always here to provide guidance as needed during the transition to your new life together. 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.
