Story

* Special Notes: Jinu was born with a deformity in his left front leg, but it has never defined him. He’s learned to walk in his own special way—and he can even run freely, full of joy and confidence. All Jinu needs now is a loving family to stand by his side, believe in him, and show him a world filled with adventures, warmth, and endless love🙏 • Rescue Story: Jinu’s story began with a miracle. Last July, his tiny mama was found on the streets and rescued just in time, moments before euthanasia, and brought safely to our partner clinic. On August 3rd, she gave birth to six puppies—Jinu was one of them. Jinu was born with a deformity in his left front leg and had a harder start than his siblings. With special care and love from the clinic staff, he grew up healthy and strong. One of his siblings has already found a forever home, and Jinu is now waiting for his turn at the shelter. Despite his slightly weaker leg, Jinu is a bright, happy, and positive pup who loves life. He deserves a family who will see his resilience and give him the joyful life he’s been waiting for! • Personality: Sweet, Playful, Friendly As a young puppy, Jinu's personality will continue to blossom with love and guidance. He has that joyful puppy energy that fills a home with laughter and happy chaos. • Affinity with - Dogs: Good with other dogs. - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: Loves people! He hasn’t had experience with children yet, but given his young age, he is expected to adapt quickly. • Housetrained: Work in progress • Walking Manners: pretty good on a leash! • Likes: Loves people's pets and cuddles! • Shedding level (1~10): Expected to be moderate once fully grown (5–6) • Health - Vaccinations: up to date - Jinu was born with a deformity in his left front leg, but it has never defined him. He’s learned to walk in his own special way—and he can even run freely, full of joy and confidence. All Jinu needs now is a loving family to stand by his side, believe in him, and show him a world filled with adventures, warmth, and endless love🙏

Story

This handsome boy named Fievel is only around 9 months old and weighs 50 pounds. He showed up on someone's porch starved and would not leave. The couple would not feed him -even when he came to them, trying to get them to pet him, they ignored poor Fievel. Finally, they called the local animal control saying they wanted them to come and get him off their porch immediately. Fievel was brought back to the animal shelter but since he was such a sweet boy, they did not euthanize him and called a rescue instead. Fievel is now neutered and fully vetted but is missing the one thing in life that he wants the most, and that is a family. Can you be the one to give Fievel his biggest hope and wish?? Fievel is up to date on vaccines and preventatives - he is in "move in" condition. His adoption fee is $415. Please fill out an application at ehrdogs.org and give this happy boy the wonderful home he deserves. He can't wait to be part of your family! We've included a video of hanging out with 2 doggie friends (including Scooby SCAS, also available for adoption, at the shelter: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1629966088099853 July 29, 2026, 10:05 am

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 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!

Story

This beautiful pup is DOUGIE and he's such a good boy! He's a Basenji mix who is 1 year & half - 2years old & fully grown at 46 pounds! He has beautiful golden coloring and one brown eye and one blue eye which makes him even more special. He's a super sweet boy and was a Volunteer favorite at the Shelter we rescued him from. They took him on lots of field trips and he absolutely loved them! We've sprung Dougie from a Shelter and he's living with a great Foster family now who have other dogs so it's like doggie camp for him! He's a lover boy and wonderful with everyone he meets and other dogs too. He's also a smart cookie....we have lots of videos with him showing how he sits so politely waiting for his treats! He'll be a great family dog and a great companion to adopters who like to go hiking or bring their pup on errands with them. And, if there's a pup-cup included he's all in! We're looking for a wonderful family who have a fenced yard so he can play and take lots snoozes in the sun. He'd do great with doggie siblings but could easily be a solo pup because he loves to hang our with his peeps. He's healthy, up to date on all his vaccinations and so ready to be part of a family! Reach out to Long Road Home Rescue (lrhrescue@gmail.com) to get lots more info, pics and videos of this great guy!

Story

• Rescue Story: Meet Ellong 👋 Ellong was found on the streets of South Korea in 2018 and rescued just moments before euthanasia. Against the odds, she survived—and in 2021, she finally found what we all believed was her forever home. Sadly, after four years of being part of a family, Ellong was returned to the shelter. We were heartbroken and confused to hear that she was said not to coexist well with another dog—after four years together. Despite this painful chapter, Ellong remains one of the most well-behaved and gentle dogs at the shelter. She carries no bitterness, only quiet hope. We truly wish for Ellong to find a real forever home this time—one that will stand by her, cherish her, and never abandon her again💛 • Personality: Affectionate, Gentle, Friendly Ellong is full of affection and loves people. She adapts quickly to new places. Energy level is mid-low. • Affinity with - Dogs: Does well around other dogs - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: Great with all people / Hasn't experienced kids, but we believe she would be fine with calm older kids. • Housetrained: Uses pee-pads indoors and the bathroom outdoors. • Walking Manners: Loves sniffing around on walks. • Bathing/Brushing: Good with both • Separation Anxiety: None. • Barks/Howls: Quiet • Car Rides: Good with car rides. • Appetite/Food Allergies: No food allergies found so far • Likes/Dislikes: Loves belly rubs the most! • Shedding level (1~10): 6-7 • Health: Ellong is suspected to have grade 1.5 patellar luxation. Maintaining a healthy weight and engaging in regular exercise are recommended to help preserve her current condition. Otherwise, she is a healthy, happy pup ready for her forever family! 💙 Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee. Your support directly helps us continue rescuing and caring for dogs in need, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding.

Story

• Rescue Story : Meet Dawook👋 an adorable pup with a beautiful smile! Dawook was one of the 9 puppies found on a street in South Korea at just two months old and taken to a high-risk shelter. They were luckily saved right before euthanasia by the rescue team, but Dawook had to be hospitalized due to the mange treatment while all his siblings found their foster homes. Even long after he got a clean bill of health, he is still in the private shelter without a single chance to live in the loving home he deserves. This friendly pup is more than ready to find a forever home! • Personality: Friendly, Easy-going, Active Dawook's endearing and bright personality shines through with his charming smile and playful demeanor even in the shelter. We would like him to have a family who enjoys outdoor adventures so that Dawook can experience many activities he has been missing while staying in the shelter. • Affinity with -Cats: Curious about them -Dogs: Gets along with other dogs in the shelter, but due to his play style, it would be ideal as the only dog in the house. -Adults/Kids: Good with all people, including men and kids, but he hasn't lived with kids in a house before, so it will be necessary to watch him being around kids at the beginning. • Shedding: 5-6 • Food Allergies: No. • Walking Manner: good on a leash! • Housetrained: He would prefer to potty outdoors when adopted with regular walks. • Bathing/Brushing: tolerates both well • Separation Anxiety: None. • Bark or Howl: No. • Carsickness: No. • Like & Dislike: LOVES people, attention, and treats! • Health: a healthy boy! 💙 Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Dubu’s story is one of quiet endurance — and remarkable recovery. * Rescue Story : She was originally adopted by a family with four children who, without fully understanding the responsibilities of raising a dog, brought her home on impulse. From the beginning, Dubu did not receive the basic care dogs need. She was never taken on walks and spent all of her time indoors without proper stimulation or exercise. As she grew bigger, the family moved her out to the balcony, where she lived in isolation. Eventually, she was tied up in the parking area of their villa, spending her days confined to a short tether. During this period, Dubu became infected with heartworm. In 2023, when the family moved to a new home and could no longer keep her tied outside, they brought Dubu to our shelter. They covered only the cost of her heartworm treatment, and she was officially surrendered into our care. Dubu then began a long but necessary journey to recovery. She underwent six months of heartworm treatment and made a full recovery. Afterward, she remained at our center for over a year and a half, where she was given the structure and care she had never experienced before. During her time with us, Dubu learned how to be a dog again. She developed healthy social skills with other dogs, learned proper leash manners, and became fully house-trained. With consistent care and routine, her true personality began to emerge. *Personality : Dubu has a gentle and patient nature, especially with children. She is affectionate and warm toward people, enjoying human companionship. When it comes to other dogs, however, her personality becomes much more playful—she is energetic, lively, and truly comes alive during playtime. Despite her energy, Dubu is not a frequent barker and tends to be relatively quiet. * She is currently staying in a foster home(South Korea), but as it is a multi-dog household, we hope to find her a home where she can receive more focused attention—either as the only dog or with just one other companion. Dubu has spent much of her life adapting to circumstances she did not choose. Now, she is ready for something different—a home where she is not overlooked, but truly seen, cared for, and loved.
