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 U.S. and Canada💟 💙 Name: Hoki 💙 Sex: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 2 years old (Born September 2024) 💙 Weight: 12.6 lb (5.7 kg) 💙 Adogs Updates: @_adogs_ 1. Health Status * Spayed: Yes. * Others: Microchipped, heartworm negative, recovered from coronavirus, and giardia, and currently receiving treatment for anaplasmosis. 2. Rescue Story * Hoki had been staying at a municipal animal shelter in Gimje. The shelter environment was extremely harsh for such a young and small dog to endure. Despite the difficult conditions, Hoki never lost her trust in people. She had become very thin, so Adogs urgently rescued her. 3. Personality & Traits * With people: Is not shy around people and accepts calmly cuddles even in the arms of someone she has just met. Makes good eye contact and enjoys physical affection. Is a very gentle and easygoing dog. * With dogs: Gets along well with the other dogs at the center. Rather than actively seeking out other dogs, she prefers to quietly rest on her own. However, when another dog approaches her to play, she happily responds. * With cats: Has not met any cats yet. * Separation anxiety: Is difficult to assess because she is currently living in a group setting at the center. May need to receive new training after moving to a new environment. * Potty training: Uses a pee pad indoors without accidents. May need to be retrained after moving to a new environment. * Grooming: Has not yet had much experience with grooming, so further observation will be needed. * Walks: Walks well without pulling on the leash. * Car rides: Rides well in the car without motion sickness. * Mouthing/Biting: Has never shown any biting or nipping behavior. * Barking: Has not shown excessive barking, whining, or similar vocalization. * Overall personality: Is calm and gentle. Has a sweet, mild temperament and is very friendly toward people.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to U.S. and Canada💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Toddy💙 1. Medical History * Spayed. * Microchipped. Undergoing treatment for heartworm and anaplasma retest scheduled for October 2026. 2. Rescue Story Toddy was living at the Gimje Shelter. Realizing that she could no longer hold out in a harsh shelter environment vulnerable to suffocating heat and infectious diseases, Adogs acted quickly to rescue her. 3. Personality & Characteristics * With Humans: Is still not comfortable with people and avoids them. However, she will accept treats from familiar people. * With Dogs: She stays comfortable when dog friends approach her first and loves hanging out with them. * With Cats: She has not yet been introduced to cats. * Separation Anxiety: Since she is currently living in a group setting at the shelter, her individual anxiety levels are unknown. Structured independence training will be needed from day one in a home environment. * Potty Training: She currently uses indoor potty setups. Retraining will be necessary when she moves to a new environment. * Grooming & Hygiene: Brushing and nail trimming are still unfamiliar to her, but she stays patient and tolerates them well. * Walking: Because she is still settling into the center, she has not had outdoor leash walking experience yet. * Motion Sickness: She rides comfortably in the car without any signs of motion sickness. * Biting: She has never shown any biting tendencies. * Barking: She has never barked or whined. Guidance and training may be needed once she transitions into a home setting. * Personality: She is still adjusting to her new surroundings, but she is a quiet, calm, and gentle girl. Is still shy with people, but enjoys playing with other dogs.
