 QUICK FACTS Name: Kongsoon Age: Around 2 years old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Chihuahua, Jindo mix Color: Brown Weight: 10kg / 22lbs Fully Vaccinated, Microchipped, and Dewormed.   MY RESCUE STORY Hi! I’m Kongsoon. I was rescued from a city pound where I was sadly placed on the euthanasia list because there wasn’t enough space. Luckily, kind rescuers saw my spirit and gave me a second chance at life! Now, I’m safe, healthy, and ready to find my forever home.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Spayed & no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY When you meet me, you’ll notice just how charming I am! My face is a rare and adorable mix of a Jindo and a Chihuahua — a combination you don’t see every day! I’m a little shy at first, but with gentle encouragement, I warm up quickly. I also get along well with other dogs and enjoy making new furry friends.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m a little shy at first, but with some time and tasty treats, I quickly warm up and enjoy being petted. Once I trust you, I’ll happily show my belly — and you can even pick me up! · With Dogs: I’m friendly with dogs! I love meeting new furry friends, and playtime is one of my favorite parts of the day. I generally get along best with dogs bigger than me. · With Cats: I haven’t had much experience with cats yet, so my reaction is still unknown.   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a high energy level and need plenty of playtime and walks outside before I can relax and settle indoors.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk well on leash and follow my handler’s lead nicely. I don’t guard my food against people, but I can be sensitive around other dogs during mealtime and may growl to protect my space — separate feeding is recommended with multiple dogs. I can bark for attention or when meeting strangers, but I rest calmly in my kennel and prefer to potty outdoors. I do have some separation anxiety and, in the past, have chewed or had accidents when left alone. I’ll need guidance and patience as I adjust to my new family. I’m full of energy and love adventures, so it’s important I get plenty of exercise and playtime before being left alone.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me grow and become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A very active family that will provide me with plenty of outdoor walks and adventure! A family who understands my love for food and is patient in helping me feel comfortable eating around other dogs. A family that understands my initial shyness and provide me with gentle encouragement so I learn to become more confident.   SPECIAL NOTES I warm up quickly and absolutely adore people! I love snuggling with my foster family at night and showering them with kisses. I get along well with all dogs, though I need a little guidance around food — I don’t mind sharing treats, but I’m sensitive if other dogs approach my bowl during mealtime. I have a playful, mischievous side that keeps life fun and entertaining! While I usually rest calmly in my kennel, I’ve recently started a little game of sneaking away, showing off my cheeky personality. I’m a level 2 rescue dog, which means I’ll need a few days to settle in and may be a bit shy at first in my new home.   Kongsoon's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2572827##

QUICK FACTS Name: Charong Age: 5 years old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Chihuahua mix Color: Black & white Weight: 6kg / 13lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from a city pound after being placed on the euthanasia list due to lack of space. I’m not sure how I ended up abandoned and alone—I was found wandering around an apartment complex before being taken to the shelter. Now that I’m safe, I’m ready to find my forever family!   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Spayed with no known health issues Received dental cleaning in October 2025   MY PERSONALITY When you meet me, you’ll see what a handsome girl I am—I look like I’m wearing a little tuxedo, like a true girl boss! I’m a very energetic pup who loves going for walks and exploring the world. I adore people and thrive on human companionship—being close to my humans is one of my absolute favorite things!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m very friendly with people! I love greeting everyone and receiving pets and affection. You can easily pick me up and I like to show my belly a lot as a sign of trust. I am very affectionate with volunteers and staff and · With Dogs: I love playing with dog friends, but I have a very energetic, sometimes pushy play style—so I do best with dogs who can match my energy. I can be a bit too much for calmer or senior dogs. I also get jealous when other dogs get affection, so I’d be happiest as the only dog in the home where I can soak up all the love! · With Cats: My reaction to cats is still to be determined. When I see them on walks, I might watch with curiosity for a moment, but I quickly lose interest and continue on my way..   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I’m a fun, high-energy girl who loves adventure! I need plenty of outdoor time to run, explore, and let out my zoomies before I can settle happily indoors. Once I’ve had my exercise, I turn into the sweetest, cuddliest companion.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk well on leash overall, though I can pull when I’m excited or want to go a certain direction, so I’ll benefit from continued leash training. I don’t guard my food with people, but I can get protective around other dogs, so separate mealtimes are best. I’m very food-motivated and have a big appetite—sometimes I even try to sneak food from the table—so I’ll need some consistent guidance with manners. I already know basic commands like sit, and I rest calmly in my kennel. I may bark when I want attention, and I can mark a bit when I’m adjusting to a new environment. If I join a home with another dog, slow introductions are important since I can come on a little strong at first. With patience and structure, I’ll settle in beautifully!   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 offers a fun, structured, and safe environment. A family that understands my high energy needs and willing to guide me with patience so I learn to be more patient and calmer. A family that understands my love for food & helping me become more patient when other dogs are nearby. Ideally home as a single dog A family that will cherish me and spend lots of outdoor & indoor time together.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a super sweet, friendly girl who absolutely adores people! I know my forever family is out there waiting for me. I’m considered a level 1 rescue dog, which means I adapt quickly and settle easily into new environments—just give me a little love, and I’ll feel right at home.   Charong's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2579663##

Story
QUICK FACTS  Name: Chorong Age: 4 years Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Chihuahua Colour: Brown Weight: 4.1kg / 8.8lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated, Dewormed    MY RESCUE STORY   I was once on the euthanasia list at Busan City Shelter, waiting for a second chance. Luckily, I was rescued just in time, and now I’m ready to find a loving forever home where I can feel safe, happy, and cherished every day. I may be small, but my heart is full of love, and I can’t wait to share it with you.   MY PERSONALITY  I’m sweet, friendly, and love being close to people — even strangers! I roll over to show my belly, enjoy cuddles, and bring the classic Chihuahua charm. I’m polite with dogs (especially my size), easygoing, and don’t guard my food. I’m playful but calm, and I love both affection and cozy naps.   SOCIAL SKILLS  With People: I love to be close to people, and I’m not shy around strangers—I’ll happily come up to you, rub against you, and let you pet me. You can even pick me up and hold me with my belly in your arms. Once I get comfortable, I love showing my belly to anyone, even people I just met! With Dogs: I greet new dogs politely, but I don’t usually play with them. I tend to be friendly with dogs that are similar in size to me. With Cats: I haven’t been observed around cats yet, so my reaction to them is unknown.   ENERGY & HABITS  I have a moderate energy level and enjoy outdoor activities, but I like to rest quietly afterward. I tend to pull on the leash, but I generally follow my human’s lead. Since I’m still learning walks, I can get scared and flatten myself when something unexpected appears. I walk well in quiet areas, but sudden noises can startle me.   MY IDEAL HOME  I’d thrive in a calm home with loving humans who enjoy walks, cuddles, and can guide me gently. A quiet environment with few surprises would help me feel secure and happy.   SPECIAL NOTES  I’m well-mannered during meals, don’t guard food, and only whine a little when kenneled. I’m small, sweet, and full of love to give — are you my person?   Chorong's YouTube Playlist ##2568997##

Story
Quick Facts Name: VeroAge: 7 years oldGender: Female (Spayed)Breed: ChihuahuaColor: Black & WhiteWeight: 3.5 kg / 8 lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   My Personality Hello! I’m Vero. I may be small, but my story runs deep. I spent the early part of my life as a mother, raising pups in a home that bred dogs like me. Though I wasn't always treated as the cherished companion I longed to be, I never stopped hoping for that kind of love. Now, I’m stepping into a new chapter. I can be a little reserved at first who wouldn’t be, after all I’ve been through? But if you offer me a treat or speak to me gently, you’ll quickly see how affectionate I really am. Once I feel safe, I become incredibly loving, following my people around and leaning in for attention. I’m calm, clever, and quietly loyal. And yes, I’ll even roll over to show you my belly when I feel at ease.   My Social Life        •      With People: I warm up quickly, especially if snacks are involved! I haven’t spent time around young children, but I do well with adults who are gentle and respectful. You can pick me up easily, and I’m happiest snuggled close to someone I trust.        •      With Other Dogs: I don’t mind being around other dogs, especially those my size, but I’m more of a companion than a playmate. I prefer peaceful coexistence and usually keep to myself. That said, I do like my food, so I’d appreciate a little space at mealtime just to make sure no one tries to sneak a bite of my bowl.        •      With Cats: I haven’t met a cat yet, so we’re not sure how I’d feel. A careful, slow introduction would be best if one is in the family.   On My Walks I’m an experienced walker and enjoy exploring at a calm, steady pace. I don’t pull on the leash and stay close to my person. it’s one of the best parts of my day! After a nice walk, I’m happy to curl up and rest quietly.   Life at Home At home, I’m an easy and well-mannered housemate. I know how to use pee pads and also do my business outside. I’m flexible like that!  Occasionally, I’ll bark if I want something, but mostly, I’m a quiet observer who’s happy just being near the people I love. Though I’ve spent much of my life focused on motherhood, I’m now ready to be someone’s baby to receive the attention and love I always gave to others. I may have lived in the background before, but I have so much warmth and affection waiting to be shared.   My Ideal Home I’m looking for a calm, kind home where I can finally relax and be loved for who I am. Whether you’re a single person looking for a gentle shadow or a quiet family wanting a sweet companion, I think we might be a match. My perfect home would have:        •      A patient and loving person who understands that trust is earned gently        •      A peaceful environment without too much chaos or commotion        •      Someone who sees my quiet charm and gives me space to shine I’ve lived a life where gentleness was rare. With love, I’ll blossom into the devoted companion I was always meant to be.   Vero's YouTube Playlist ##2632057##

I adore people and thrive on human companionship—being close to my humans is one of my absolute favorite things!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m very friendly with people! I love greeting everyone and receiving pets and affection. You can easily pick me up and I like to show my belly a lot as a sign of trust. I am very affectionate with volunteers and staff and · With Dogs: I love playing with dog friends, but I have a very energetic, sometimes pushy play style—so I do best with dogs who can match my energy. I can be a bit too much for calmer or senior dogs. I also get jealous when other dogs get affection, so I’d be happiest as the only dog in the home where I can soak up all the love! · With Cats: My reaction to cats is still to be determined. When I see them on walks, I might watch with curiosity for a moment, but I quickly lose interest and continue on my way..   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I’m a fun, high-energy girl who loves adventure! I need plenty of outdoor time to run, explore, and let out my zoomies before I can settle happily indoors. Once I’ve had my exercise, I turn into the sweetest, cuddliest companion.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk well on leash overall, though I can pull when I’m excited or want to go a certain direction, so I’ll benefit from continued leash training. I don’t guard my food with people, but I can get protective around other dogs, so separate mealtimes are best. I’m very food-motivated and have a big appetite—sometimes I even try to sneak food from the table—so I’ll need some consistent guidance with manners. I already know basic commands like sit, and I rest calmly in my kennel. I may bark when I want attention, and I can mark a bit when I’m adjusting to a new environment. If I join a home with another dog, slow introductions are important since I can come on a little strong at first. With patience and structure, I’ll settle in beautifully!   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 offers a fun, structured, and safe environment. A family that understands my high energy needs and willing to guide me with patience so I learn to be more patient and calmer. A family that understands my love for food & helping me become more patient when other dogs are nearby. Ideally home as a single dog A family that will cherish me and spend lots of outdoor & indoor time together.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a super sweet, friendly girl who absolutely adores people! I know my forever family is out there waiting for me. I’m considered a level 1 rescue dog, which means I adapt quickly and settle easily into new environments—just give me a little love, and I’ll feel right at home.   Charong's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2579663##

Story
QUICK FACTS  Name: Chorong Age: 4 years Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Chihuahua Colour: Brown Weight: 4.1kg / 8.8lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated, Dewormed    MY RESCUE STORY   I was once on the euthanasia list at Busan City Shelter, waiting for a second chance. Luckily, I was rescued just in time, and now I’m ready to find a loving forever home where I can feel safe, happy, and cherished every day. I may be small, but my heart is full of love, and I can’t wait to share it with you.   MY PERSONALITY  I’m sweet, friendly, and love being close to people — even strangers! I roll over to show my belly, enjoy cuddles, and bring the classic Chihuahua charm. I’m polite with dogs (especially my size), easygoing, and don’t guard my food. I’m playful but calm, and I love both affection and cozy naps.   SOCIAL SKILLS  With People: I love to be close to people, and I’m not shy around strangers—I’ll happily come up to you, rub against you, and let you pet me. You can even pick me up and hold me with my belly in your arms. Once I get comfortable, I love showing my belly to anyone, even people I just met! With Dogs: I greet new dogs politely, but I don’t usually play with them. I tend to be friendly with dogs that are similar in size to me. With Cats: I haven’t been observed around cats yet, so my reaction to them is unknown.   ENERGY & HABITS  I have a moderate energy level and enjoy outdoor activities, but I like to rest quietly afterward. I tend to pull on the leash, but I generally follow my human’s lead. Since I’m still learning walks, I can get scared and flatten myself when something unexpected appears. I walk well in quiet areas, but sudden noises can startle me.   MY IDEAL HOME  I’d thrive in a calm home with loving humans who enjoy walks, cuddles, and can guide me gently. A quiet environment with few surprises would help me feel secure and happy.   SPECIAL NOTES  I’m well-mannered during meals, don’t guard food, and only whine a little when kenneled. I’m small, sweet, and full of love to give — are you my person?   Chorong's YouTube Playlist ##2568997##

Story
Quick Facts Name: VeroAge: 7 years oldGender: Female (Spayed)Breed: ChihuahuaColor: Black & WhiteWeight: 3.5 kg / 8 lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   My Personality Hello! I’m Vero. I may be small, but my story runs deep. I spent the early part of my life as a mother, raising pups in a home that bred dogs like me. Though I wasn't always treated as the cherished companion I longed to be, I never stopped hoping for that kind of love. Now, I’m stepping into a new chapter. I can be a little reserved at first who wouldn’t be, after all I’ve been through? But if you offer me a treat or speak to me gently, you’ll quickly see how affectionate I really am. Once I feel safe, I become incredibly loving, following my people around and leaning in for attention. I’m calm, clever, and quietly loyal. And yes, I’ll even roll over to show you my belly when I feel at ease.   My Social Life        •      With People: I warm up quickly, especially if snacks are involved! I haven’t spent time around young children, but I do well with adults who are gentle and respectful. You can pick me up easily, and I’m happiest snuggled close to someone I trust.        •      With Other Dogs: I don’t mind being around other dogs, especially those my size, but I’m more of a companion than a playmate. I prefer peaceful coexistence and usually keep to myself. That said, I do like my food, so I’d appreciate a little space at mealtime just to make sure no one tries to sneak a bite of my bowl.        •      With Cats: I haven’t met a cat yet, so we’re not sure how I’d feel. A careful, slow introduction would be best if one is in the family.   On My Walks I’m an experienced walker and enjoy exploring at a calm, steady pace. I don’t pull on the leash and stay close to my person. it’s one of the best parts of my day! After a nice walk, I’m happy to curl up and rest quietly.   Life at Home At home, I’m an easy and well-mannered housemate. I know how to use pee pads and also do my business outside. I’m flexible like that!  Occasionally, I’ll bark if I want something, but mostly, I’m a quiet observer who’s happy just being near the people I love. Though I’ve spent much of my life focused on motherhood, I’m now ready to be someone’s baby to receive the attention and love I always gave to others. I may have lived in the background before, but I have so much warmth and affection waiting to be shared.   My Ideal Home I’m looking for a calm, kind home where I can finally relax and be loved for who I am. Whether you’re a single person looking for a gentle shadow or a quiet family wanting a sweet companion, I think we might be a match. My perfect home would have:        •      A patient and loving person who understands that trust is earned gently        •      A peaceful environment without too much chaos or commotion        •      Someone who sees my quiet charm and gives me space to shine I’ve lived a life where gentleness was rare. With love, I’ll blossom into the devoted companion I was always meant to be.   Vero's YouTube Playlist ##2632057##

Story
🏠 Currently in a Vancouver foster home Hi, my name is Dabok. I’m a Pomeranian mix boy, and I’m estimated to be about 2 years old. I weigh 6.4kg (14.1 lb), which makes me a small, fluffy bundle of love. With my soft white fur, gentle eyes, and the way I wag my tail as I walk up to you, people often tell me I melt their hearts the moment they see me. That’s my special charm—and I love sharing it. But my life didn’t always look this warm and gentle. I was rescued from a shelter where the risk of euthanasia was extremely high. The environment was harsh, and illness was everywhere. Each day, I waited—without knowing if tomorrow would come. And then, at the very last moment, a miracle happened. I was rescued and given another chance at life. Because of what I’ve been through, I treasure human touch and love more than anything. Even the smallest bit of attention means the world to me, and I open my heart sincerely to those who show me kindness. I’m an active yet incredibly affectionate boy. I get along wonderfully with women, men, and children, and I socialize very well with other dogs without conflict. When you pet me, I naturally lean into you, because connecting with people is something I truly enjoy. People often say I feel like I was born to be someone’s companion dog—and I think they’re right. I’m also great on walks! I don’t pull on the leash and walk calmly by your side. I don’t overreact to strangers or other dogs, so our walks together will be peaceful and relaxing. I do well in the car, I’m crate trained, and I’m already trained for outdoor potty habits. That said, when I move into a brand-new environment, I may have a few potty accidents at first. But I already understand the concept, and with love, patience, and a consistent routine, I’ll quickly adjust again. Your understanding and gentle guidance will give me a sense of safety and help me build deep trust with you. My ideal forever family is someone who can embrace my past, see mistakes as part of growing together, and wants to share everyday joys with a loyal companion. If I meet that family, I promise to give back with unwavering trust, a warm presence always by your side, and endless love. I once stood at the door of euthanasia. Now, I stand here—ready to learn love, and ready to give it back. I’m Dabok, and I’m ready to become someone’s forever family.

Story
Bori is a mature, gentle girl who spent a long time in a shelter before being rescued. She is the kind of dog whose presence is so quiet that you might not even notice she’s there— soft, calm, and unobtrusive. She rarely barks and enjoys simply staying close to her person. From the very first moment you meet her, she’s the kind of dog who makes you think, “I just want to hold her.” Bori’s personality is pure gentleness. She is calm, well-mannered, and never disruptive to the atmosphere of a home. She stays quietly by your side, which somehow makes you care for her even more, with a tender feeling in your heart. One important note: Bori tends to chase cats, so a home without cats would be best for her. In a new environment, she may have a few potty accidents at first due to nervousness. With a little time and patience, she will adjust and gradually settle in. Bori doesn’t ask for much. A quiet space, a patient person, and a family willing to spend calm, unhurried time together is all she needs. She isn’t overly affectionate or demanding, but just having her nearby is comforting in itself. That’s the kind of dog Bori is. She is no longer looking to be alone— she is waiting for a family who will stay quietly by her side, just as she will for them. 🐾🤍
