❗️Mukgoo was abandoned after five years' adoption. We are looking for families in the United States❗️ **He is currently in Seattle** Meet Mukgoo🤎 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1⃣ Health Condition * Neutered. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Mukgoo was rescued and adopted to a family in the US before Adogs started its mission. After living well for a couple of years, his family’s circumstances has changed. Now, he is looking for a new home. 3⃣ Basic Information * With People: Is a super sociable dog who likes people so much. Loves greeting people and being petted so much, wagging his tail. * With Dogs: Gets along very well with any dog. Has good social skills with dogs, so becomes popular when playing with canine friends at the dog park. * Separation Anxiety: Sometimes barks along only when other dogs bark, but the exact details are unknown yet. May need training when the environment changes. * Potty Training: Prefers pottying outdoors rather than indoors. * Hygiene: Is a little afraid of water. Accepts baths nicely when being handled carefully. * Walks: Is an excellent walker and matches his pace with his handler. Loves going for walks and enjoys smelling things while walking. * Likes: Loves people so much that he hops around excitedly and expresses a lot of happiness with them. * Dislikes: Is a bit scared of sudden loud noises. * Tricks: Is a smartie that has mastered "sit down," "wait," and "paw."

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 Meet White🤍 💙 Adogs Update Account: @_adogs_everyday 1⃣ Health Condition * Neutered. * Microchipped, heartworm negative, and dental scaling completed. * Has received dental scaling, but due to significant tooth staining, the teeth don’t appear very clean. One or two canine teeth are slightly chipped, but there is no nerve damage, so no immediate treatment is necessary. 2⃣ Rescue Story * White spent time at a dogslaughter farm in Juksan, where he witnessed his fellow dogs being killed right before his eyes. He lived in constant fear, but when Adogs shut down the farm, he was finally given a second chance at life. 3⃣ Basic Information * With People: Is a bit shy. Approaches to sniff and sticks around familiar people, but runs away if you try to touch him. If you corner him a bit so he can’t run away, he accepts being petted. Is okay with familiar people touching him at any space! You can minimize the time it takes to get closer to him with treats. Although he isn’t yet affectionate with people, he’s in the process of opening his heart and will get close to people quickly once he lives in a family home. * With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs and does not cause issues. Is not particularly interested in approaching new dogs first. Seems to prefer smaller-sized dogs and plays well with familiar companions. * With Cats: It is unclear how he will react as he hasn’t met cats yet. * Separation Anxiety: Not confirmed as he is currently living in a group setting at our center. * Potty Training: Does only outdoor pottying at our center. * Hygiene: Runs away when you try to take care of him but once you catch him and start petting and brushing him, he stays still and enjoys it. * Walks: Gets a bit nervous when walking outside so it’s recommended to take him out to quiet and familiar places. Doesn’t pull on the leash but tends to get stubborn when something scares him. * Car Sickness: Is comfortable with riding in a car without motion sickness. * Doesn’t bite, even defensively. * Rarely barks, but has copied other dogs if they bark when visitors come to the center. * Likes treats so much that he sometimes overpowers his fear of people! * Becomes wary and frightened of unfamiliar people, vehicles, or external stimuli.

Story
** Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea ** • Rescue Story : Meet Dong-yeop👋 Dong-yeop was wandering in the mountain and the neighborhood. He followed other dogs walking around. Some residents filed many complaints to fire stations, police stations and animal rescue organizations, but they all failed to rescue him, raising vigilance. In the meantime, He often appeared in front of the house of a resident and ate meat she was feeding him. Some residents who were interested in Dong-yeop's rescue in the neighborhood decided to work together to rescue the dog, set up a fence in front of the house, and succeeded in rescuing Dong-yeop who came in to eat.

Now he's excited to go out for walks. • Housetrained: Fully-housebroken, using the bathroom only outside. • Baths: Not a fan! • Separation Anxiety: None, thanks to the other dog in the house. • Bark or Howl: Not really... except when he greets his foster at home out of joy. • Likes & Dislikes: He likes other dogs and tug-of-war! He loves beef and he likes to get pets! / He's not a fan of being chased or carried by people. He seems to get better as times go by though.
