Story
Meet Chelsea, our 3-year-old Corgi mix weighing 15 lbs. She was rescued from an illegal puppy mill in Busan in October. She’s a quiet, timid girl on a journey to discover her playful and goofy side in her foster home.Chelsea is still shy but has been getting more confident each day. She loves to explore her surroundings—standing on her hind legs to peek at what’s on the table or out the window, always curious about the world around her.When Chelsea isn’t investigating her surroundings, she’s snuggled in her dog bed or giving her foster family glimpses of her blossoming personality. With time, patience, and a quiet home, Chelsea will become an affectionate, loving companion.
Despite her traumatic past, she is sweet. Rescued from a horrific, illegal puppy mill in Busan, South Korea, in October, Chelsea is one of almost 600 dogs saved through the efforts of Korean K9 Rescue and our incredible partners. Now in foster care, Chelsea is looking for her forever family. Watch her rescue here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pH4y4l8j2RE
Adopting a puppy mill survivor like Chelsea comes with unique rewards and responsibilities. She has shown incredible resilience and a bright spirit, but dogs from these backgrounds often require patience and time to decompress and adjust to a loving home. While Chelsea is currently healthy and has received excellent veterinary care, potential adopters should be aware of the genetic predispositions common in dogs from such environments, including IVDD, luxating patellas, heart conditions, dental issues, etc, that could arise later in life, and prepare both financially and mentally to help Chelsea live every day happy and long life.
If you're ready to open your heart and home to Chelsea, you'll gain a loyal companion who thrives on love and care. Apply to adopt Chelsea and start the journey of a lifetime together!
