Story
*Woof* I`m in a foster home! Email my foster caregiver to meet me: Lucamamula1@gmail.comSome dogs just have a way of making you feel like the most important person in the world, simply by laying their head on your lap. That’s Pinky Promise! She’s been an incredibly well behaved and easy going dog in her foster home. She appears fully potty trained with no accidents, sleeps soundly in her crate overnight and settles easily when left alone. She’s affectionate and loving without being demanding—happy to snuggle with you, but also content to relax independently or entertain herself while you work from home. She’s usually calm and quiet (hasn’t barked once) but gets the cutest little zoomies now and then. She would do well in a wide variety of homes and families and would be an easy, loving addition to just about any household.

📌 Important Adoption Information All of our dogs are currently living in private shelters or foster homes in South Korea. Once an adoption is approved, dogs will travel to the United States through legal and approved international transport procedures. Video calls are available prior to adoption, and adopters can communicate with our rescue team in real time through our official organization and app-based messaging channels throughout the process. • Rescue Story : Meet Taeri👋 Taeri was fostered for 3 months as a puppy, so she grew up with great social skills! Everyone thought she’d find her forever home quickly—but somehow, three years have flown by at the shelter🥲 • Personality: Friendly, Easy-going, Affectionate Taeri is super friendly and easygoing—she quickly warms up to new people and loves being around humans! She’s very affectionate and loves cuddles. You’ll often find her lying on her back waiting for belly rubs🥰 Her energy level is moderate—playful but not hyper. • Affinity with -Cats: Not tested -Dogs: Taeri gets along well with other dogs at the shelter and adjusts easily to new friends. -Adults/Kids: Good with all people, including men! She hasn’t met kids yet, but we think she’d do fine with gentle, respectful children. • Shedding: 6 • Food Allergies/Appetite: No allergies found so far / She's a good eater. • Walking Manner: She’s great on walks and enjoys being outside! • Housetrained: She uses pee pads indoors and goes potty outside as well. She'll need house training in a new environment. • Bathing/Brushing: She’s also a pro at bath time! • Separation Anxiety: None. • Bark or Howl: Barks only a little when other dogs bark. • Carsickness: During her foster days, she often went on car rides and handled them well. • Like: Taeri loves belly rubs more than anything! She enjoys all kinds of treats and likes toys she can chew on, like balls or wood sticks. • Health: Healthy and happy pup! 💪 💙 Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee.
