Story
💙 Name: Klein 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 6 years old (Born in July 2020) 💙 Weight: 9 kg / 19.84 lb 💙 Klein's News Account: @klein___55 1️⃣ Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped and heartworm negative. * Diagnosed with a benign sialocele (salivary gland cyst) under her neck. Veterinary evaluation confirmed it requires no special treatment or major concern. 2️⃣ Rescue Story * Klein was originally rescued as a young puppy alongside four siblings from a slaughterhouse in Jeongeup and moved to the local shelter. A year later, when the siblings and Klein were placed on the euthanasia list, Adogs stepped in to urgently rescue all four of them. 3️⃣ Basic Information * People Reaction: Slightly fearful of people, but has high curiosity and affection. Will approach strangers to sniff them, with overall responsiveness continually improving. Still wary of adult men and may hide behind the guardian, but has become comfortable enough with a familiar middle-aged man to run up to him for treats. Greets the guardian with a wagging tail and affection; showed little interest in young children. * ​Dog Reaction: At dog cafés, mostly stays near humans, occasionally visiting liked dogs to sniff them. Dislikes overly pushy or clingy dogs. Dislikes sharing a stroller with another dog, but shows no severe rejection. * ​Cat Reaction: Excitement around cats has decreased significantly, but may still try to chase them during walks, so sudden leash tension requires caution. * ​Separation Anxiety: Showed symptoms of separation anxiety, but is improving. Still tries to open doors or search for the foster caregiver, though can now rest comfortably on the couch alone. May chew on the shoe rack when left alone due to lingering anxiety. * ​Potty Training: Recently started doing indoor pottying. Has a 90% accuracy rate when pads are laid out, though aiming isn't always precise. Strongly prefers outdoor pottying. * ​Grooming & Hygiene: Tolerates baths and brushing well despite not loving them. Runs away from hair dryers, toothbrushes, and nail clippers out of fear, requiring two people to manage. Brushing goes smoothly when held on the floor. Sheds during summer and winter. * ​Walking: Enjoys running and playing, but has an escape instinct and may try to dash out when doors open. Using a double leash (collar + harness) is recommended. Sensitive to heat and tires quickly on summer walks. ​* Motion Sickness: No motion sickness, but gets scared of evening neon signs and lights, seeking comfort in human arms. * ​Biting / Chewing: Has never shown aggression toward people, but tends to chew on electrical cords or wire doors. Once showed a defensive warning nip toward another dog while eating. * ​Barking: Howls after the foster caregiver leaves, and may whine briefly out of joy upon their return. * ​Likes: Chicken breast meat sticks and walks. Loves plush, cozy spots and enjoys chewing hard objects like charger cables or plastic hangers. Likes warmth, enjoys wearing clothes, and sleeps much more comfortably when dressed. * ​Dislikes: Strangers and loud noises. Uncomfortable sitting on cold floors and hesitant to enter dark, narrow kennels or crates. Trembles in fear when seeing people kick balls at dog cafés. * ​Tricks: Commands "Sit" well when treats are involved. * ​Personality: Prefers quiet, comfortable environments and builds trust gradually. Expressiveness, affection, and patience have improved significantly while staying with the foster family.

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet White🤍 ​💙 Name: White 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 3 years old (Born in September 2022) 💙 Weight: 13.6 kg / 30 lb 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ ​1. Health Condition * ​Neutered. * Microchipped, and heartworm negative. * Has received professional dental scaling, but due to severe staining, his teeth may not appear perfectly white. One or two canines are slightly chipped, but since the nerves are not damaged, no immediate treatment is required. ​2. Rescue Story * ​White was rescued from the Juksan dogslaughter farm. He endured the trauma of witnessing his friends being slaughtered before his eyes until Adogs successfully shut down the farm and brought him to safety. ​3. Basic Information * ​With People: Is a bit timid and wary of strangers, but you can easily win him over with some tasty treats! Once he gets to know you, he will come close to sniff around, linger nearby, and even let you touch them inside his kennel. However, since physical touch is still a bit unfamiliar, he might run away if you try it in an open area. Perhaps due to a painful past, he trembles and gets scared when you try to pick him up, but he is showing steady improvement compared to when he was first rescued. * ​With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs. Isn't the type to rush up to new dogs, but plays and runs around happily with his familiar furry friends. Plays very well with doggy friends in the playground. * ​With Cats: Tends to bark when spotting a cat. * ​Separation Anxiety: Unknown, as he currently lives in a group setting at our center. * ​Potty Training: Currently only relieves himself outdoors at our center. * ​Hygiene: Spins in circles to get away from the brush. * ​Walks: Is still getting used to leash walks and can be a bit nervous. We recommend walking in quiet, familiar areas. Is not fond of having a leash put on and spins in circle. However, once he’s out, he walks well and slowly, sniffing. Needs patient, consistent practice. * ​Car Sickness: Travels well without any motion sickness. * ​Biting: Has never shown any defensive or territorial biting. * ​Barking: Sometimes joins in when other dogs bark at visitors. Is very food-motivated and may sometimes bark when he wants treats. * ​Likes: Loves treats! His motivation for food often helps him overcome his fear of people. Likes and gets along great with his friend #AdogsYooah. * Dislikes: Is wary and fearful of strangers, sudden touches, and unfamiliar external stimuli. * Personality: Is shy around people but is bright and gets along great with other dogs. While he doesn't show affection or approach people eagerly just yet, he is slowly opening the heart. We believe he will blossom even more in a loving home environment!
