Lego was adopted as a young puppy but was sadly surrendered by his owner after three years.
He grew up in an unstable environment with frequent travel back and forth to Boston, which made it difficult for him to form a secure attachment with his guardian.
Because of this instability, in moments of fear, panic, or overwhelming stress, he has shown a few defensive or warning bites
Lego needs a family who can meet him in person, understand his behavior clearly, and provide the consistent, reassuring environment he needs.
City life is simply too overwhelming for him.
With a quiet environment and a patient, steady guardian, Lego has every chance to continue improving and becoming more stable.
The greatest hope is for Lego to find a peaceful home where he can finally rest.

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.
