Story
BELLA had a home and her family surrendered her to a rescue in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Juno's Den and Huellitas Diferentes decided to help her find a home in the PNW. She is an extremely shy pup initially who needs an experienced handler and someone knowledgeable about her breed. She gets along well with most dogs, but can be selective at times. Therefore, she will do better as an only dog. She is very affectionate and cuddly. Loves to play fetch and run. Bella will do best with an active, all adult family, and a fully fenced yard. She is housebroken and crate trained. She doesn't have separation anxiety but prefers to be around her people. ##2122004##

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to SEA💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet White🤍 💙 News & Updates: @_adogs_ ​1⃣ Health Status * ​Neutered: Yes. ​* 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. ​2⃣ Rescue Story * ​White was rescued from the Juksan dog meat 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. ​3⃣ Personality & Traits * ​Interaction with People: Is a bit shy and tends to cautiously avoid strangers. However, he can be won over with treats! While he stays close to those he knows, he still gets a bit "flighty" when someone reaches out to touch him. If gently cornered, he accepts touch well, and familiar faces can pet him anywhere without issue. Though not yet overtly affectionate, he is slowly opening his heart. We believe he will bond quickly once he settles into a consistent home environment. * ​Interaction with Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs. He isn't the type to rush up to new dogs, but plays and runs around happily with his familiar furry friends. * ​Interaction with Cats: Not yet tested. * ​Separation Anxiety: Unknown, as he currently lives in a group setting at the center. * ​House Training: Currently only relieves himself outdoors at the center. * ​Grooming: Might try to run away when it's time for maintenance, but once you catch him, he is very well-behaved during petting and brushing. * ​Walking: Is still getting used to leash walks and can be a bit nervous. We recommend walking in quiet, familiar areas. Doesn't pull on the leash, but may "freeze" or resist moving if he encounters something scary. Needs patient, consistent practice. * ​Car Rides: Travels well without any motion sickness. * ​Mouthiness/Biting: Has never shown any defensive or territorial biting. * ​Barking: Rarely barks, though he sometimes joins in when other dogs bark at visitors. * ​Likes: Loves treats! His motivation for food often helps him overcome his fear of people. * ​Dislikes: Is wary and fearful of strangers, vehicles, and unfamiliar external stimuli.
