My story

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

Meet Arin



(Schnauzer × Maltese Mix | 3 Years Old | 7.8kg / 35 cm tall / Spayed Female)



 



Arin is a gentle, soft-hearted little girl who is learning what it means to be safe



She’s the perfect small companion with a calm and quiet presence.



 



Her Story



Arin was rescued from a severe animal hoarding situation involving over 230 dogs in Seoul.



The city supported spay surgery and vaccinations, and she is now under the care of AKR and international adoption support.



 



Despite her past, Arin has kept her gentle spirit.



 



Personality & Socialization



 



With People



She may be slightly shy at first, but offer a treat and she warms up quickly. Once she knows you, she will:



• Come over to greet you



• Lean her little body against you



• Rub her bottom on you for attention



• Even bark softly to say “notice me!”



 



She has no preference between men or women.



She can be picked up by placing an arm under her belly, and once bonded, she’ll even roll over to show her tummy.



 



With Other Dogs



• She politely greets unfamiliar dogs



• Prefers quiet independence rather than active play



• Not reactive, even if another dog provokes her



• Not particularly afraid of large dogs



 



Because she comes from a hoarding background, she may initially feel more secure in a home where another calm dog is present. If adopted as an only dog, early separation-anxiety prevention and confidence building will be important.



 



With Cats



Shows curiosity during walks but follows handler guidance easily.



 



 



Energy & Lifestyle



Energy Level: Low



• Loves resting and staying calm



• Walks nicely on leash once settled



• Not sensitive to car noise



• No pulling once guided



 



She does bark when she wants something (mild demand barking), but she does not guard food from people or dogs.



 



Crate & Training



• Calm in a kennel



• Nervous about getting into the car (needs to be lifted in)



• Uses both pee pads indoors and outdoor potty



 



 



Ideal Home



Arin would thrive in:



• A calm household



• Someone patient and gentle



• A home that understands she may need time to fully blossom



• Possibly with another calm dog for reassurance



 



She is not a high-maintenance dog. She is simply a quiet soul who needs stability and kindness.



 



If you’re looking for a soft, steady companion who will slowly attach her whole heart to you, Arin may be your girl

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.
