Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to LAX💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. 💙 Name: Kuma 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 2 years old (Born April 2024) 💙 Weight: 11.7 kg (approx. 26 lbs) 💙 ADOGS Instagram (KR): @adogs 💙 English Profile: @_adogs_rescue 1. Medical History - Neuter Status: Completed - Microchip: Registered (Internal chip completed) - Other Notes: Heartworm retest scheduled (December 2026) Giardia completely cured 2. Rescue Story Kuma was staying at the Gimje Shelter, quietly enduring his loneliness. Unable to leave him behind in an environment so highly vulnerable to infectious diseases, ADOGS stepped in urgently to rescue Kuma and give him a chance at a safe life. 3. Personality & Characteristics - Interaction with Humans: He is very fearful and tends to keep his distance from people. He runs away from strangers and does not allow physical touch. He avoids being handled even by familiar faces. Extreme caution is needed when trying to put on his leash, as his fear can trigger defensive nipping. - Interaction with Dogs: He coexists peacefully and seamlessly with other dogs without showing much interest in them. He has shown absolutely no aggression toward his dog friends. - Interaction with Cats: He has not encountered any cats yet. - Separation Anxiety: Since he is currently living in a group environment at the shelter, it is difficult to assess. He will need structured training from the beginning once he transitions to a home. - Potty Training: He currently utilizes both indoor and outdoor potty areas at the shelter. He does not have a habit of marking. - Grooming & Hygiene: He has no prior experience with formal grooming routines yet. - Leash Walking: When a walk is attempted, he tends to bite and chew on the leash. He will need patient guidance and leash training. - Motion Sickness: He has shown no signs of car sickness during short-distance rides. - Biting/Aggression: He gets highly tense and evades whenever people approach. Because he is unfamiliar with human touch, attempting to pet him can lead to defensive snapping. On one occasion at the shelter, when handlers had to catch him to put him back into his kennel, he made warning snaps and then bit hard enough to leave marks on the handler's hand. Experienced and careful handling is strictly required. - Barking: He is very quiet and has not shown any barking or whining behavior at the shelter, though training may be needed if his habits shift in a home environment. - Dislikes: He actively avoids people. He feels highly uncomfortable when humans come too close or try to touch him. - Personality: Kuma is a very timid, fearful, and wary boy. Because of his deeply cautious nature, his future family must give him plenty of space and take things very slow to build trust over time.

📌 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 Dugger👋 an adorable pup with a beautiful smile! Dugger was one of the 9 puppies found on a street in South Korea at just two months old and taken to a high-risk shelter. They were luckily saved right before euthanasia by the rescue team, but Dugger had to be hospitalized due to the mange treatment while all his siblings found their foster homes. Even long after he got a clean bill of health, he is still in the private shelter without a single chance to live in the loving home he deserves. This friendly pup is more than ready to find a forever home! • Personality: Friendly, Easy-going, Active Dugger's endearing and bright personality shines through with his charming smile and playful demeanor even in the shelter. We would like him to have a family who enjoys outdoor adventures so that Dugger can experience many activities he has been missing while staying in the shelter. • Affinity with -Cats: Curious about them -Dogs: Gets along with other dogs in the shelter, but due to his play style, it would be ideal as the only dog in the house. -Adults/Kids: Good with all people, including men and kids, but he hasn't lived with kids in a house before, so it will be necessary to watch him being around kids at the beginning. • Shedding: 5-6 • Food Allergies: No. • Walking Manner: good on a leash! • Housetrained: He would prefer to potty outdoors when adopted with regular walks. • Bathing/Brushing: tolerates both well • Separation Anxiety: None. • Bark or Howl: No. • Carsickness: No. • Like & Dislike: LOVES people, attention, and treats! • Health: a healthy boy! 💙 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. Your support directly helps us continue rescuing and caring for dogs in need, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding.
