My story

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

Adopt Chocolat



Affectionate • Independent • Resilient



 



Name: Chocolat



Age: 2 years



Sex: Spayed Female



Breed: Jindo Mix



Color: Black / White



Weight: 8 kg (17.6 lbs)



Height: 38 cm (15 in) at the shoulder



 



Rescue Story



 



In April 2025, Chocolat was rescued after being found abandoned inside a sack on the street along with another dog.



The case was reported, but the person responsible was never identified.



 



After her rescue, Chocolat stayed at the WeAct Center before moving to the AKR Center in October, where she has been preparing for adoption ever since. Despite her traumatic past, she has shown incredible resilience and an affectionate spirit.



 



 



With People



 



Chocolat is friendly and social with both familiar and unfamiliar people.



She enjoys approaching people, rubbing her body against them, and especially loves food—offering treats makes bonding with her very easy.



 



Due to her past trauma, she initially screamed if anyone reached under her belly, possibly from fear or previous mistreatment. With time and care, she has made great progress and can now be gently picked up without panic, though she still doesn’t enjoy being held.



 



She is very affectionate and often shows her belly to new people or follows them around asking for attention and pets.



 



 



With Other Dogs



 



Chocolat prefers calm, one-on-one friendships rather than group play.



If her favorite dog friend isn’t around, she usually relaxes alone—lying on blankets or sunbathing on the grass.



 



She is not particular about size but prefers dogs that are gentle and non-pushy. She dislikes rude or dominant dogs and may bark at them to tell them to back off. While she may respond if provoked, she has never been in an actual fight—other dogs typically retreat when she sets boundaries.



 



She generally has low interest in other dogs and enjoys resting alone or playing independently with her toys.



 



 



With Cats



 



No observed reaction to cats yet.



Cat testing can be arranged if needed.



 



 



Energy Level



 



Moderate energy overall.



Low energy indoors and moderate energy outdoors. She enjoys outdoor activities but settles down calmly afterward.



 



 



Walking



 



Chocolat enjoys walks and gets excited to go out.



She may pull slightly on the leash but generally follows her handler well.



 



 



Other Notes



 



• No food guarding toward people



• May growl if another dog approaches while she is eating or takes her toys



• No separation anxiety



• May bark briefly when first placed in a crate; settles well with toys or nose-work activities



• Fully outdoor potty trained



 



Chocolat would do best in a home that respects her independence, understands her boundaries, and appreciates her affectionate yet self-sufficient nature. She is a loyal, loving companion for someone who values a calm and emotionally intelligent dog.



 



If you’re looking for a dog with depth, resilience, and a gentle soul, Chocolat may be the one for you

More about this rescue

Adopt Korean Rescue is a volunteer-based federally registered not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted dogs in South Korea find a new home in Canada.

We love Korean dogs. Many of them live in chains, give birth on the side of the road, or wander around with their pups. Some of them get caught and end up at dog meat farms or high-kill shelters in South Korea. They luckily meet us just before euthanasia or after many years of living in dog meat farms. We exist to hold their paws and help them find a forever home in Canada full of joy and happiness.

Our dog rescue work depends on our flight volunteers. They help us safely bring our dogs from Korea to Vancouver or Toronto airports, where the dogs will find loving forever or foster homes.
