Story
Molly is a 2-year-old female Jindo mix weighing about 14 kg (30 lbs). She was abandoned at a shelter as a young puppy and spent most of her early life there. Because of this difficult start, her social and emotional development is still a work in progress. However, this only makes her even more pure-hearted and in need of love and affection. Molly has a round face, short ears, and a soft, teddy bear-like appearance that makes her irresistibly adorable. Her sweet expressions and endearing gestures are enough to bring a smile to anyone’s face and quickly melt hearts. She absolutely loves playing and gets along well with other dogs, enjoying running and playing together. Molly especially loves treats, which makes her highly motivated and responsive during training. Molly has a bright, sunny personality and approaches new people without much hesitation. She’s the kind of dog who will wag her tail and greet you warmly even if you’ve just met. Since she’s full of energy, Molly would thrive in a home with a big backyard or access to a dog park where she can run and play freely. She does well on walks but can be curious in new environments, sometimes pulling a bit on the leash. With consistent training and positive experiences, she will become a calm and confident walking companion. Currently, Molly is trained to go potty outdoors three times a day at the training center, so she has a basic outdoor potty routine. However, as she adjusts to a new home, some accidents may happen. She will need a patient and understanding family to help her settle in. Molly is smart and eager to please, so with a little guidance, she will adapt quickly to her new environment. Molly is affectionate, playful, and loves being around people. Thanks to her love of treats, she responds well to training and is steadily learning new things with great enthusiasm. With enough love, attention, and a stable home environment, Molly has the potential to grow into an amazing companion dog. Molly, who has both sweetness and a lively spirit, is ready to bring joy and warmth to her future family. All she’s waiting for now is a forever home filled with love!

Story
Currently in a toronto foster home Hi, my name is Soonsu! 🐾 I'm a 1.5-year-old male Jindo, around 20kg (about 44 lbs), and I’m so excited to finally introduce myself to you! I’ve had a bit of a rough start in life. I was rescued just in time before facing a very sad fate, and since then, I’ve been working really hard to become the best boy I can be. I grew up in a shelter with my puppy friends, and now I’m in training school where I’ve been learning all about how to connect with people and live happily in a home. And let me tell you—I absolutely love people! I mean it. I prefer spending time with humans way more than with other dogs. Sometimes, I might gently jump up to get your attention—it’s just my way of saying, “Please love me!” If you pet me or give me a hug, I’ll be the happiest pup in the world. I crave affection and love being your shadow. I’m also super smart and super food-motivated, so treats are a great way to help me learn. Training? Bring it on! I focus really well when snacks are involved and I'm always eager to please. Now, I’ve never lived in a home before, so house life might be a little confusing for me at first. I might have some accidents in the beginning, but I promise I’ll try my best to learn quickly—especially if you’re patient and kind with me. I don’t get shy around new people at all. Whether we’ve just met or we’ve known each other forever, I open my heart easily. I’m just a big lovebug who wants to be part of a family where I can finally feel safe, loved, and at home. So, if you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and happy pup who will love you with his whole heart—I’m your Soonsu. 🧡 I’m ready for a fresh start and a forever family. Could that be you? With love, Soonsu

Story
My name is Nari. I’m a 3-year-old girl, about 18kg (that’s around 40lbs) of pure love, courage, and tail wags. People say I have a small, sturdy frame and the brightest, most soulful eyes — but I think my heart is the biggest thing about me. I wasn’t always safe like I am now. When I was found, I had been abandoned with my newborn puppies. One of my back ankles was already gone… just gone. No one knows how long I endured the pain, or how I managed to care for my babies through it all. But I did — because that’s the kind of girl I am. Strong. Loyal. A survivor. Thanks to kind humans, I got the treatment I needed, and now my wounds are all healed. I may be missing a part of my leg, but I walk, play, and go on walks just like any other dog. It doesn’t slow me down one bit! But here’s the most surprising part… Even after everything I’ve been through, I still love people. All people. Even new ones! I’ll walk up with a wagging tail, sniff your hand gently, and if you’re kind — I’ll trust you. It doesn’t take much. I get along with other dogs just fine, and once I get to know you, I’ll show you my silly, affectionate side. I’m smart, too! I pick up training quickly — especially when treats are involved. I’ve never had a real home before. But I dream of one all the time. A quiet, loving place where I can finally rest — where my days are filled with calm routines, cozy beds, gentle hands, and someone to call my own. Yes, I may look a little different. But my heart? It’s whole. It’s warm. And it’s ready to love you more deeply than you could ever imagine. I’m Nari, and I’m waiting for a miracle. Maybe it’s you.
