💙Meet Noeul— A Sweet Boy With A Rough Start, Now Ready To Be Loved Forever✨💛
Here are more photos and videos of Noeul: https://www.instagram.com/p/DSb4x4MES8c/?hl=en

Noeul lived as a stray by a cafe in Busan. He was malnourished, but survived eating food given to him by shop owners and customers. Then someone reported him as a feral dog, and he was placed on the euthanasia list at the shelter.

Just before euthanasia, someone stepped forward and adopted Noeul. However, only one day later, he was returned. He was then rescued and moved to a foster home in Busan. After staying there for a couple of months, he was moved to another foster home in Incheon.

Noeul is now fully settled, and has been lovingly cared for by his foster family in Icheon, Korea. He enjoys playing, loves going on walks, and has grown into a confident and happy dog. He is ready to come to the Seattle area to meet his forever family!

Name: Noeul
Estimated Age: 3 years
Breed: West Highland & Terrier Mix
Gender: Male
Weight: 14.3 lbs
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Energy Level: 3-4 out of 10

Good with dogs? When meeting dogs during walks, Noeul wants to approach first. He usually only sniffs and does not bark. At home, once he finishes sniffing another dog, he gets along well with them.
Good with cats? He ignores cats.
Good with kids? Gets along well with gentle children, but may bark at them during walks if they are noisy.
Sociability: Gets along well with everyone. As long as there are no sudden loud noises/ big movements, he has no issues. When he meets familiar people outside, he rubs against them and asks for pets. He bonds well with his current foster family. Noeul is very considerate. When the senior dog at his foster’s home eats/drinks, he waits patiently behind and only approaches after the other dog is finished, showing great manners and patience.

100% outdoor potty trained. His previous foster mentioned marking, but in his current foster home, Noeul does not mark at all.

Good on leash? He goes on walks 3-5X a day, each lasting about 10 to 40 minutes. Typical times are around 8 a.m., 12 p.m., 4 p.m., and 9 p.m., though not always exact. He may pull slightly, but when his name is called, he responds well. He enjoys sniffing during walks, so leash manners are considered easy.

Barker? At home, he only barks when a new and unfamiliar person enters. Outside, he may bark at running children, but he stops immediately when his attention is redirected.

Separation anxiety? None.
Mouthiness/nipping? He gently mouths toys while playing and is not aggressive. He takes treats carefully and chews slowly.
He experiences motion sickness. On poorly paved roads, he may vomit, but he does fine on well paved roads.

Health Notes: No known health issues.

If given time and patience, Noeul warms up in less than a week and begins to show affection and approach on his own. In under two weeks, he may climb onto the bed, but he does not sleep there. He usually sleeps under the bed and comes up to give kisses when the alarm goes off in the morning.

He is shy at first and can be scared of strangers, but he loves pets and is very affectionate once comfortable.

Favorite things: Small plushie toys, treats, walks, being held and snuggles, and visiting cozy restaurants and cafés!

Noeul eats one meal per day. A consistent feeding routine is recommended.

More about this rescue

A 501(c)(3) Non-profit 
Seattle, WA
Volunteer- run, foster-based animal rescue

Love Is Mighty Rescue was founded on the principle that all animals deserve respect, kindness, and compassion.

​Based in Seattle, WA, Love Is Mighty Rescue is a foster- based animal rescue dedicated to helping dogs from South Korea who have endured abuse, abandonment, crisis, high-kill shelters, puppy mills, and the dog meat trade find forever loving homes. While our primary focus is on South Korean rescues, we also aim to rescue dogs locally, and plan to expand these efforts as we grow. We are dedicated to promoting compassion, kindness, and respect for all animals.

Partnered with South Korea rescue we help dogs facing crisis, abuse, abandonment, and the cruelty of the dog meat trade find safe, forever loving homes through responsible adoption. Our Korean dogs have been rescued from heartbreaking circumstances — puppy mills, high-kill shelters, life outside in chains, abandonment, harsh weather conditions, wildfires, dog meat farms, and slaughter houses. 

Many have endured unimaginable hardship, and we are dedicated to helping them find the warmth, care, and love they deserve in a forever home. Because of social stigma in Korea and the strong preference for small purebred dogs, mixed-breed, larger, and abandoned dogs are often overlooked and face very little chance of being adopted. Together, we can give these dogs the chance to thrive, and their hearts the chance to heal from the trauma of their past.

​All of our adoptable rescue dogs have received full veterinary checkups, are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccinations, have had dental scaling, have undergone any known necessary medical treatments or surgeries, and are microchipped. Our dogs fly in with caring flight volunteers who ensure they travel safely to their destination. Some have already spent time with foster families in Korea and are now ready to find their forever homes in the US.

We make every effort to match the right dog with the right family—the best fit for both—aiming to build happy, lifelong bonds and forever homes for our rescue dogs.
