Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to SEA💟 Meet White🤍 💙 Adogs Update Account: @_adogs_ 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. * Nip: Doesn’t bite, even defensively. * Bark: Rarely barks, but has copied other dogs if they bark when visitors come to the center. * Like: Likes treats so much that he sometimes overpowers his fear of people! * Dislike: Becomes wary and frightened of unfamiliar people, vehicles, or external stimuli.

Story
Meet Moira Rose - matriarch of the Rose family, mother of Alexis. Like her namesake, Moira may have found herself in less than ideal conditions outside in the cold winter of Eastern Washington, but that didn't bring her down. Her strength carried them through and now Alexis is old enough to be on her own, Moira is ready for what comes next! Moira is ready for her starring role with you! She deserves soft couch cushions, fashionable sweaters, and a life of luxury. Moira is thought to be a Basenji-Chihuahua mix, she is striking and beautiful and quite the affectionate lovebug. Just keep her away from the "fruit wine" (If you know, you know!) Moira has received her spay - and just in time as she had a pyometra/infection brewing, so happy we were able to help her just in time! Along with her spay, up to date vaccinations and Microchip are included in her adoption donation.

Hi there I'm Nala,I am a mature, self-confident dog who would love to find a forever home. I live now with other dogs who I love to play with, cats who I respect and play with if they want to, and kids who like to pet me. I have not had much experience with toys, but I do love a good game of tug. I like to be active, but I am good to just chill out with you too. Nothing like an evening of cuddling with the family to make my day complete.I like car rides, I don't get sick, and I stay calm. My foster says I make a great co-pilot. I know all my basic commands like sit and stay and I love to walk. When I am walking with my foster I stay close and walk at their pace. If it sounds like we would be a good fit, then just fill in the application and we can meet on a Zoom call.Just waiting for you.NalaThis dog is currently in foster care in La Paz, Mexico, but will be transported upon adoption or foster placement. As a U.S. nonprofit, Hope 4 La Pawz, handles all logistics and provides full behavioral and medical info in advance.

FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Silas! Silas is a 1.5-year-old, 27 lb Basenji mix who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. Despite a rough start, Silas is an incredibly sweet, happy boy who’s ready to embrace life in a loving home! Silas is active, playful, and loves other dogs! He enjoys romping, playing, and would love a canine sibling to keep him company and burn off energy together. That said, he could also do well as an only dog in a home committed to keeping him well-socialized and exercised. This handsome guy is treat-motivated and eager to learn, making him a great candidate for continued training and enrichment. He would love a home that takes him on daily walks, adventures, and includes him as part of their everyday life. Silas arrived underweight, and we’ve been working on helping him fill out. He’s doing well and will need adopters who are happy to continue supporting him as he builds strength and reaches a healthy weight. Silas has not yet been tested with cats or children. If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion who’s ready to enjoy the world by your side, Silas may be your perfect match! Silas is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.

Story
Meet Mary Ann and Ginger, an adorable bonded pair of medium-sized rescue dogs who are searching for their forever home. These super cute girls have spent their entire lives on their own until they were recently rescued. Despite their rough beginnings, Mary Ann and Ginger are incredibly sweet and are now learning to enjoy the comforts of a loving home. Both Mary Ann and Ginger get along wonderfully with other dogs, though they haven't had the chance to meet any cats yet. They need a patient adopter who will give them the time and space they need to adjust to their new surroundings and discover the joys of being cherished pets. Ginger, who bravely underwent heartworm treatment, is now healthy and heartworm negative. Both dogs are fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and on preventatives. They even tolerate baths and absolutely love being petted. Currently, Mary Ann and Ginger are being fostered in Seguin, TX, where they are receiving the care and love they deserve. If you have a kind heart and a gentle hand, these two sweethearts will surely reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Adopt Mary Ann and Ginger and give them the loving home they've always dreamed of.

**About Aglio:** Thank you for interested in adopting Aglio. Please know that Aglio is an international rescue through South Korea. When your application is approved, you will need to pick him up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. - Personality: He is very energetic and easygoing. He is not sensitive or nervous. He may be a little shy when meeting new people at first, but he warms up quickly. He wants to greet other dogs and has a bright, friendly personality that allows him to get along well with anyone at dog parks. - with kid: He may be a little shy at first, but with time he gets along well with people, including children. - with cats: When he sees cats during walks, he tilts his head and looks at them. Because he is still young, he does not show much reaction toward cats. - car rides: He rides in the car very well. Since he has been riding since he was young, he has no problems at all. - potty training: He goes poop outdoors. He pees both indoors and outdoors, and when indoors, he uses pee pads only. His pee pad success rate is 100%. - left alone: He whines very briefly at first but then stays calm. - guarding behavior: No. With just a simple “wait” command, he can patiently wait his turn next to another dog. He is very smart. - Leash & walking experience: He is currently being walked on a leash and does very well with it. There are no issues.

**About Koda:** Thank you for interested in adopting Koda. Please know that Koda is an international rescue through South Korea. When your application is approved, you will need to pick him up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. Personality: Koda is cheerful and energetic. He can be a bit competitive with dogs at a similar energy level but is gentle with older dogs. While he has built a strong bond with his foster, he can be wary of strangers. He should not be let off-leash as he avoids capture or close contact without it. He is generally cautious in new situations but shows resilience and adapts well over time. Koda does well with both children and adults. He may be nervous at first, but after 4–5 days he warms up and becomes affectionate. He has a tendency to chase stray cats, so living with cats may not be suitable. Car Rides: Travels well in the car without issues. Housebreaking: Prefers outdoor potty. Alone Time: May whine a little and bark at outside noises, but settles down. Leash & Walks: Currently in leash training. He may try to run after birds or small animals, so caution is needed. Coming from a street life, he is wary of cars and waits for them to pass even from a distance. - Koda is shy at first, but adapts quickly and shows strong affection once trust is built. - Shows some “one-person dog” tendencies, bonding closely with the foster. - Naturally energetic and active due to his young age, but he has good self-control. Koda is ready to find his forever loving home. If you’re interested in him, please feel free to reach out to us anytime!

**About Olio:** Thank you for interested in adopting Olio. Please know that Olio is an international rescue through South Korea. When your application is approved, you will need to pick him up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. Personally: He gets along very well with the dogs he lives with. However, when meeting smaller dogs outside, he sometimes approaches them a bit too eagerly, so he is currently in training to improve his manners. After meeting a couple of times and becoming familiar, he does well. Since he’s still a puppy, he is continuing consistent training. He can be a little timid, but he absolutely loves people. More than treats, he prefers physical affection and bonding time with humans. He is incredibly sweet and loving. With children: No particular issues. He does not show any preference and is generally comfortable with everyone. With cats- There is a cat in his foster home. He shows curiosity but he does not show any aggression. Car rides- He stays calm and rides very well. He has been crate-trained for car rides since he was young, so he travels comfortably in a crate. Potty train- He uses pee pads indoors. For poop, he goes outdoors 100%. Recently, he has started preferring outdoor potty more. Left alone- He stays calm and quiet when alone. Guarding behavior- No guarding behavior toward people. He calmly allows people to take things out of his mouth. Even if another dog takes his toy or food, he doesn’t react. He likes people more than treats or toys. Leash: He’s very curious and loves walks. He happily goes anywhere and enjoys exploring.
