Story
Meet Gowoon Go-woon and her 7 puppies were rescued from Korean city shelter. All of her puppies were taken to their respective forever homes, and Go-woon is the only one left in the center waiting for her forever family. * She is timid and spends her time in the corner at the center most of her days. 😭 She is not low energy, but she’s wary of her world. She prefers to be alone mostly and hangs out with other timid dogs. * She is uncomfortable with people’s touch as of yet. If someone touches or tries to hug her abruptly, she nips because she gets scared. Please allow her to take her time. If approached slowly, she can be petted! 😊 * We believe that with the right person who makes effort to get to know Go-woon and understand her, she will improve. Giving Go-woon patience and love will help Go-woon to become a warm and loving pet.💗
