Story
Here's what the humans have to say about me: May is a stunning 3-year-old Jindo girl with a perfect balance of beauty, grace, and charm. Rescued just in time from a shelter, she isn’t just pretty—she has a wonderful personality to match! At first, May can be a little cautious and reserved, but once she warms up, she’s full of love and sweet affection. With just a little patience (and maybe a few treats!), she quickly opens up and forms deep bonds. Once she sees you as her person, she will be loyal, loving, and always by your side. May gets along well with other dogs but has a true Jindo spirit—she’s independent and prefers playing with select friends rather than every pup she meets. However, her favorite thing is spending quality time with people. She’s polite on walks, doesn’t pull on the leash, and enjoys peaceful strolls. She is used to a structured routine and will adapt well to a new home with consistency and patience. May is looking for a loving family that understands the devoted and faithful nature of Jindos. If you’re ready to build a trusting bond, she will become the most loyal and affectionate companion you could ever ask for! May is waiting for her forever home, if you think she is the one please contact us NOW

Story
My name is Jay, and I’m a 1.5-year-old Jindo mix with the softest, fluffiest fur—kind of like a Samoyed! I weigh 17kg and have a cute, chubby body that makes me extra cuddly. 🥰 My story almost had a sad ending… I was in a shelter, facing a very scary fate, but luckily, I was rescued just in time! Now, I’m ready to start a new life filled with love, belly rubs, and endless tail wags. I’m a super friendly and affectionate pup! I trust humans completely and will happily wiggle up to strangers just to get some pets. I don’t just love people—I adore them! Whether you’re my human or someone I just met, I’ll be right there, ready to soak up all the love you’re willing to give. 💕 Big dogs, small dogs, boys, girls—I love them all! I enjoy playing, exploring, and goofing around with my furry friends. I’m not the type to pick fights; I just want to have fun and make friends everywhere I go! I’m crazy about treats which makes me super easy to train! Right now, I’m learning “wait” at the facility, and my trainer says I’m really smart and eager to learn. I pick up new things quickly and always do my best to make my humans happy! Because I’m part Jindo, I might be a little sensitive when I first move to a new place. But don’t worry! I’m really good at adjusting, and with just a little time, I’ll settle in and feel right at home. Once I do, you’ll see just how loving, playful, and cuddly I truly am! I have so much love to give, and I’m looking for a family who will shower me with kindness, patience, and treats (did I mention I love treats?). If you’re looking for a sweet, friendly, playful pup who will bring joy and laughter into your home, I just might be your perfect match! 🏡🐾 Can’t wait to meet you! Love, Jay 💙🐕 To see more videos:

Coco

Jindo Welsh Corgi

Story
Coco is a 2-year-old female jindo/welsh corgi mix who was sadly abandoned at a shelter from a young age. Faced with the fear of euthanasia, she was thankfully rescued and is now adapting to her new environment at our training center. While she is still unfamiliar with interactions with people, she is gradually building trust and slowly opening her heart. Weighing just 6 kg, Coco has adorable short legs and a cute appearance, resembling the characteristics of both the Jindo and Welsh Corgi breeds. She has a truly charming appearance that cannot be fully captured in photos and videos alone. Coco is a bit shy at first, but she is curious and will carefully approach and accept treats. Since she is not used to interacting with people yet, she might try to run away if someone tries to approach her, but in a smaller space, she will allow being touched or held. Having spent her early life in a shelter, she seems unsure about how to engage with people, but with time and love, she will gradually open up and become more confident. Because Coco has not lived with people before, she will need time to adjust to a home environment. It is important to be patient and not rush her during this process of becoming familiar with her new home and family. When going for walks, she must wear a double leash due to her potential to get startled by sudden noises or unfamiliar environments. She has an understandable tendency to want to run away if given the opportunity and having the double leash will prevent that from happening. Coco has a gentle nature and gets along very well with other dogs. She enjoys playing with both large and small dogs, and she shares treats willingly. She hardly ever barks, and currently, there are no signs of separation anxiety. However, during her adjustment to the new environment, she may experience some separation anxiety at first, so it is important for her guardian to help her adjust gradually. Currently, Coco is not fully house-trained, so there may be some accidents at first. However, with a patient guardian who regularly encourages outdoor potty training, she will likely quickly adapt. As Coco lacks social experience, it is important for her guardian to be patient and help her have various experiences. She is currently receiving leash training at the training center and will continue practicing before adoption. However, when she moves to her new home, she may need some additional time to adjust, and with a patient approach, she will become more accustomed over time. Coco is still a young dog with much to learn, but with warm love and patience, she will become the best companion. If you are ready to give Coco time and love, she will become your most loyal and loving friend.
