MY RESCUE STORY
I was found neglected at an abandoned factory, where I had been living without the care and security I needed. Thankfully, rescuers stepped in and brought me to safety, giving me a second chance to experience kindness, comfort, and a fresh start. Now, I’m leaving that lonely chapter behind and looking forward to a brighter future with a loving forever family to call my own.

MY PERSONALITY
Hi, I’m Palkong! I’m a sweet, gentle dog with a beautiful golden-beige coat and a slightly shy personality. I may be a little reserved, but underneath that cautious exterior is a lovely companion who genuinely enjoys human attention once I feel comfortable. I’m not the type to rush into every new situation with confidence, but give me a little time, and you’ll discover that I have a very soft and affectionate side.
When I first meet someone, I may approach carefully while I figure out whether I can trust them. Even when I’m feeling uncertain, though, I’m willing to come closer and accept treats, which makes getting to know me a little easier. As I become more familiar with someone, I relax and begin to genuinely enjoy gentle affection.
Although I may seem timid initially, I’m not a dog who wants to avoid people altogether. I’m curious enough to approach, happy to accept something tasty, and capable of building trust through gentle, positive interactions. What helps me most is having the freedom to move at my own pace, especially when everything around me is unfamiliar.
I may take a little longer to show my personality, but I hope my future family will appreciate the quiet sweetness behind my shyness. With patience, stability, and someone I can lean on, I have every opportunity to become a more confident and comfortable companion.
MY SOCIAL SKILLS
· With People: I can be a little shy when I first meet someone, but treats are a great way to win me over! I’m happy to accept a tasty snack, and it usually doesn’t take long before I warm up and feel comfortable being petted. I’m also comfortable being gently picked up with an arm supporting me under my belly. I haven’t had experience with children under 13 yet, so my comfort level with younger kids is still unknown.
· With Dogs: I’m comfortable approaching unfamiliar dogs to say hello, but I generally prefer a friendly greeting rather than engaging in play. I tend to rely on other dogs for reassurance and feel more secure and confident when I have a dog companion nearby. In fact, I become noticeably brighter and more relaxed when I’m with my current roommate, Sakong! Having another dog in my future home may help me feel more settled and give me extra confidence as I adjust to my new surroundings.
· With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown
ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY
I have a moderate energy level – I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m also happy to settle down and relax afterward.
I have plenty of walking experience and good leash manners, following my person well without pulling. I especially love taking my time to sniff and explore, so my walks often involve plenty of little stops to investigate all the interesting smells along the way.
TRAINING & HABITS
I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs
I rarely bark
I’m calm and settled when I’m in a kennel
I’m accustomed to doing my business outdoors, so I generally prefer outdoor potty breaks.
MY IDEAL HOME
I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:
A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can relax, feel secure, and be myself in a stable environment
A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout
A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together
A family that will love and cherish me forever
SPECIAL NOTES
Changes in my environment can affect my appetite. When I move into an unfamiliar space, I may not eat very well at first. I’ll need a quiet, comfortable place to enjoy my meals without pressure, along with a consistent feeding routine while I settle in. My future family should be patient with this adjustment and keep an eye on my eating habits.
I tend to rely on other dogs for support and confidence and I would benefit from having a calm, compatible dog friend may help me adjust, although I’d still need thoughtful introductions and time to build a new bond.
