Meet Heukgom
Heukgom is a gentle, sweet puppy with a soft heart and a thoughtful personality.
Basic Info
• Age: 4 months
• Sex: Male
• Neutered: Not yet
• Breed: Jindo Mix
• Color: Black & White
• Weight: 7.3 kg
• Height: 38 cm (shoulder height)
Rescue Story
Heukgom was born to a Husky-mix mother who lived as an outdoor yard dog.
He is from the same litter as Choco, Aru, Cream (already adopted), Baekseol, and Heukgom—all siblings born together.
People Socialization
Heukgom is very affectionate and friendly with both familiar and unfamiliar people. He especially loves men and approaches people happily for pets and cuddles.
He does wonderfully with children under 13 and is comfortable being gently held. Even with people he has just met, he often shows his belly and relaxes easily.
Dog Socialization
Heukgom greets and tries to play with both familiar and unfamiliar dogs.
He is most comfortable with dogs his own size or smaller, while larger dogs can still feel intimidating for him—especially high-energy ones. When dogs are around without people, he may hide from larger dogs, but when a trusted person is nearby, he often gathers courage and tries again, sometimes hiding between legs for reassurance. He is a sensitive and thoughtful puppy who gains confidence with support.
Cats
He has lived in the same home with a cat for about one month.
Energy Level
Like most puppies, Heukgom enjoys energetic playtime and then settles down quickly when tired. He needs appropriate daily activity to help him rest well.
Walks
Heukgom is still new to leash walks. He tends to pull toward directions he wants to explore and focuses more on sniffing than steady walking. Because walks are still unfamiliar, he may bark at passing sights—likely a mix of curiosity and nervousness. With experience and patience, this will improve.
Other Notes
• No food guarding with people or dogs
• Food-motivated and eager—still learning to wait politely
• Whines briefly in a crate but settles down
• Uses both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty
• Not a fan of baths yet, but after brief resistance, he calms and tolerates them
• Overall very gentle, mild-mannered personality
Heukgom would do best with a family that can offer patience, reassurance, and gentle guidance as he continues to grow in confidence. He is a truly sweet soul looking for a loving forever home
