My story

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

Heya everybody!! My name is Tun Tun and here is some info about me:



PHYSICAL INFO:




  • Breed: Corgi Mix

  • Age: 2 yrs 1 month approx

  • Gender: Male 

  • Weight: 13 lbs (5.9 kg) 

  • Height: 34 cm (paws to top of my head)

  • Length: 53 cm (head to butt)

  • Current Location: South Korea



RESCUE STORY - I was staying at the very overcrowded Gimje City Shelter in Korea, along with some other doggos. This was not very comfortable for me as the shelter kept us in small cages and some of the doggos often got sick. I really longed for some space to stretch my legs and some hoomans I could love on! Thankfully, as a Thanksgiving gift, some peoples rescued me right before the holidays and brought me to another (better!) shelter where I have been patiently waiting for my own hooman family to take me home. I hope that could be you!



TEMPERAMENT - I am a super affectionate, friendly and easygoing companion! I just need to get a little comfortable with a hooman first so I may be wary to start with. However it doesn't take long for me to come out of my shell and once I do you'll get alllll the hugs and kisses! I also get along well with other pups and I enjoy playing with them. My rescuers say that I interact smoothly and read social cues well. I do very much enjoy spending my time resting and looking out the window, however you can really perk my ears by getting some treats out as I am very food-motivated! 



ENERGY LEVEL - Medium 



GETS ALONG WITH:




  • Kids – Unknown. I haven't been around children before!

  • Dogs – Yes! I get along and play with other pups very well!

  • Cats – Unknown. 



PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.



TRAINING:




  • Leash skills – Good. I enjoy going on walks and I do well in a martingale collar. I will sometimes stop for to sniff here and there but if I hear a hooman calling me, I will come! I may bark a little bit at strangers but once I get the chance to take a sniff of them, I calm down right away. I will need an adopter who is happy to work with me on my leash manners. A well-fitted harness and some dedicated leash training will help set me up for success! 

  • House trained – Work in progress. Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :) I have been known to do a bit of marking at the beginning to set my territory but once I am used to the place, I don't do it.



Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. 



HEALTH NOTES:




  • I am neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records.

  • I will be tested for Heartworm etc. before flying to Canada.

  • NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.



ADOPTION FEE:




  • My adoption fee is $840.00 CAD ($750.00 CAD + 5% GST and 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.
