My story

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

Meet Bao — Sweet, Loyal, and Ready for Her Forever Family!



 



Name: Bao



Age: 3 years



Sex: Spayed Female



Spayed: Yes



Breed: Terrier Mix



Color: Black/Brown/White



Weight: 7.5kg



Height (shoulder): 41cm



 



Rescue Story



 



Bao entered a city shelter in 2023 with her mother. She was rescued at around 4 months old and spent about 2 years in a foster home looking for an adopter in Korea, but without success.



She joined AKR in mid-October to prepare for her chance at a forever home overseas.



 



‍‍ Socialization with People



 



Bao lived with a single foster guardian for nearly 2 years, so she naturally forms a deep bond with one person. Once she trusts you, she becomes incredibly loyal and affectionate — a true one-person “velcro dog.”



 



At first meetings, she may be shy, but she warms up quickly with treats and gentle interaction.



She has done well with children under 13 and can be picked up comfortably by placing arms under her belly. Once she’s comfortable, she happily shows her belly for rubs.



 



Socialization with Dogs



 



Bao is sociable and gets along well with other dogs.



 



Just like she bonds strongly to a favorite person, she may also become very attached to a particular dog friend. If that dog doesn’t want to play with her, she may whine a little to get their attention — it’s part of her sweet, clingy charm.



 



She plays well with both large and small dogs.



If another dog barks or tries to provoke her, she does not react or fight back — instead, she runs to her guardian for safety. She generally prefers people over dogs.



 



Cats



 



She has shown interest and playful whining when seeing cats outdoors.



A home-cat test is available upon request.



 



Energy Level



 



Moderate — she enjoys outdoor activities, running, and playtime, but settles calmly afterward.



In her foster home, she enjoyed 1–2 hours of walking and play each day.



 



Walks



 



Bao has plenty of walking experience.



She does not pull, follows her handler well, and loves going for walks and exploring new places.



 



Other Behaviors



• No food guarding toward people or dogs



• Not severe separation anxiety, but she may whine if her person suddenly leaves the room



• Strong people attachment — wants to be near her person



• May bark when hearing outside noises



• Gets car-sick and may need to be monitored during rides



• Prefers outdoor potty
