My story

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

Hello out there! My name is Suzy ('Soobin' in Korea) and here is some info about me:



PHYSICAL INFO:




  • Breed: Jindo Mix 

  • Age: 1 year approx.   

  • Gender: Female 

  • Weight: 8 lbs (3.65 kg) 

  • Height: (head to toe) 20cm

  • Length: (nose to butt) 55cm

  • Current Location: S. KOREA 



RESCUE STORY - I was living at the infamous Gimje City Shelter in Korea where me and my doggo friends were trying our best to survive outside in small cages...this shelter is known for its poor conditions, with no heating and infectious diseases commonly spreading. This was no place for me as I am very small and at high risk of freezing in those temperatures! Thankfully some kind hoomans stepped in to take me outta that place and place me in a much more comfortable foster home. 



TEMPERAMENT - I am a verified couch potato snuggle-bug! I may seem shy at first, but once you give me some time to get my sniffs in I will happily receive pets and cuddle up next to you. I even like to show my belly and ask (politely) for belly rubs! I'll be honest, I am not really an active type. I will only be ‘active’ when there are treats around (heheh). But after that's done, I will go back to my cushion or favourite cozy place. Around doggos I'm fine but I really do prefer the company of hoomans. They just get me, ya know?! I would do well in a calm environment with someone who enjoys snuggling with a couch potato and watching K-dramas with me!



ENERGY LEVEL – Low



GETS ALONG WITH:




  • Kids – Unknown. However I prefer a calm environment and would do better in a home without kids I think!

  • Dogs – Yes but I prefer hooman company 

  • Cats – Unknown.



PREY DRIVE - Unknown. I’m not too sure how I’ll react around squirrels/rabbits etc., so my adopter needs to be prepared and willing to train me through these behaviours, should they arise.



TRAINING:




  • Leash skills – Work in progress as you can see here and here. I am still opening up to being in new environments and also learning what leash walking is. I will freeze up but will try to walk if the leash is pulled a bit but still needs some time to learn. I would benefit from an adopter who is willing to have patience as I figure this all out :) 

  • House trained – Work in progress. Frequent potty breaks and positive reinforcement will help me learn housetraining in my new home :)



Please Note: WCP highly encourages adopters to do some research and training on their own before their dog arrives. 



HEALTH NOTES:




  • I am spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I will come to Canada with proof of all my vaccines and test records.

  • I will be tested for Heartworm etc. before flying to Canada.

  • NOTE: It is not uncommon for rescue dogs to require dental work/cleaning after they are adopted. West Coast Paws does not cover the costs of dental work and/or vet visits. These costs are the financial responsibility of the adopter.



ADOPTION FEE:





  • My adoption fee is $840.00 CAD (including 5% GST & 7% PST), which includes my airfare, if a flight volunteer is found directly to Vancouver.
