Story
Greetings, I'm Mint, an 8-month-old girl with a mix My journey began when I was just a 2-week-old baby, arriving at the city shelter along with my seven siblings and loving Mom. I bring a delightful and sociable spirit with me. One of my brothers found a loving home in Seattle through fostering, and it was love at first sight for his foster family. We're a charming bunch! Yet, the rest of my siblings, including myself, are still at the city shelter, facing the risk of euthanasia. All of us are a delightful blend of friendly, funny, and undeniably cute. Strength? That's a matter of perspective. I consider myself innocent and gentle, always eager for playful adventures. Food is a joy, but I'm no guard—sharing with friends is more my style. My energy level is moderate, and I enjoy playtime with pals while maintaining a calm demeanour indoors. Petting me is a breeze, and my wobbly tail is a testament to my happiness. I'm the epitome of cheerfulness—always ready with a wagging tail, especially when making eye contact. If you're in search of a bright and cheerful companion, look no further—meet me and let's create a beautiful bond!

Story
Hello, I'm Bay, an adorable 8-month-old SharPei mix boy eagerly awaiting my forever home. My journey began at the city shelter when I was just a 2-week-old baby, accompanied by my loving Mom and seven siblings. While one of my seven siblings found a happy home through fostering, I and my other siblings are still at the city shelter, facing the risk of euthanasia. Each one of us embodies a friendly, funny, and endearing spirit. Picture this: lovely chocolate fur, long legs adorned with white socks, and eyes that exude innocence, much like a baby angel. I'm a social butterfly, adoring people so much that I'll gladly sit on a stranger's lap upon our first meeting. Playing with friends is a delight for me, and if I discover a cherished toy, I'll quietly retreat to a corner to enjoy it. My nature is gentle and kind; even if friends approach me while I'm with my toys, I'll simply relocate without any fuss or growls. If you're seeking a puppy friend to always bring a smile to your face and shower you with love, then I'm the perfect companion. Consider adopting me, and I promise to become a cherished and lovable member of your family. Let's create a beautiful bond and fill your home with joy and love together.

Hello, I'm Cinamon, an adorable 8-month-old SharPei mix girl eagerly awaiting my forever home. My journey began at the city shelter when I was just a 2-week-old baby, accompanied by my loving Mom and seven siblings. We're a charming bunch! While one of my seven siblings found a happy home through fostering, my other siblings and I are still at the city shelter, facing the risk of euthanasia. Each one of us embodies a friendly, funny, and endearing spirit. I'm a social butterfly, adoring people so much. I allow strangers to touch or hug me. I'm a very nice, innocent soul. And I'm an extreme toy lover. If I have a toy I like, I go to the corner alone and play with it quietly without my friends knowing. I grew up in a shelter as a baby, so I have less experience. I still need to learn how to eat snacks. When I go for a walk, my tail goes down in unfamiliar places. I wish I had a family who could teach me the taste of delicious snacks and the joy of walking. I will be your lovely and good family member. I'm in a shelter in Korea and ready to fly anywhere in Seattle or Vancouver if you call my name.

Story
I'm Carrot, a charming 2-year-old Samoyed Jindo mix looking for my forever home. My journey began in 2021 when I, along with my mom and siblings, was sadly abandoned near a stream. Fortunately, Yongin Animal Protection Association in S. Korea rescued me, and now I'm ready to share my love with you. I might be a bit shy at first, but my love for people knows no bounds. I warm up quickly, and before you know it, I'll be nuzzling against you for those cherished cuddles. My social skills extend to my furry friends too; I get along famously with other dogs and am always eager to make new acquaintances. I'm leash-trained and well-behaved in my kennel. I have a moderate energy level, so after our adventures, I'm content to lounge and relax by your side. Oh, and during our walks, I might leave a little mark to let others know I've been there—it's just my way of saying hello! I'm not possessive about food, and barking is not my style. Let's embark on this journey together—filled with wagging tails, shared moments, and everlasting love. https://youtu.be/p2fh5ZN-Pmo?si=WknE4vcSLh9EdpG2 https://youtu.be/G-kY7LemLX4?si=k8ktWS01_L2fT8Fg

Story
Picture this: I found myself abandoned in a bustling city market, where I roamed as a stray dog for some time. Thankfully, kind-hearted souls spotted me and made the choice to keep me safe. I'm the epitome of friendliness! I welcome pets and treats from strangers with an open heart. When I'm comfortable, I might even offer my belly for those coveted belly rubs. When it comes to other dogs, I'm the first to extend a friendly greeting, and I'm always up for some playtime. I tend to do best with dogs of similar size. If another dog displays aggression, I'm not one to back down from a challenge, though I'm actively working on this aspect. My energy level falls within the moderate to high range, which means I thrive on outdoor adventures but transform into a calm and composed pup once inside. I'll admit, I haven't had much experience with leash training, so my excitement often leads to a zigzag path as I explore every intriguing scent on the ground. But with a bit of training, I've improved, and I'm ready for consistent guidance from my future family. don't guard resources when it comes to people. However, when other dogs get a little too close for comfort, I might emit a growl. I'm actively engaged in resource guard training, which will require ongoing attention. Barking is not in my vocabulary I've got outdoor potty habits. My journey has taken me from the uncertainty of a city market to a world filled with love and care. While I'm already a social butterfly, there are areas where I can continue to grow with the right family. If you're ready to provide guidance, training, and lots of love, we can make beautiful memories together as we explore life's adventures.

Story
Hello there! I'm Jjajang, a 1 year old female Jindo mix with a heart as warm as my fur. My journey started in quite a challenging place—I was rescued just before euthanasia. Despite enduring the harsh conditions of a shelter, I braved the cold and heat, moving through four temporary homes while awaiting my spaying surgery. Life has taught me resilience, and my personality shines with goodness. I'm a people-loving pup, quick to open my heart and eager to lean on you for support. I've mingled with various foster companions, embracing dogs of all sizes with a friendly wag and a warm hello. I like going for walks but, when I see a cat or birds, I may pull on the leash to chase them. Sudden loud noises or unexpected leaps by children can make me a bit uneasy, so a calm and patient home would be my ideal haven. I'm a foodie at heart, growling playfully if other pups approach my mealtime territory. I'm not much of a barker, but if you forget saying hi to me after coming back home, I might just remind you with a gentle woof~ When it comes to bathroom breaks, I'm pretty adaptable—whether it's the great outdoors or a neatly laid indoor pad, I've got it covered. I know how to gracefully hop in and out of the car, and when it's time for downtime, you'll find me peacefully settled in my crate. My past might have been a bit rocky, but I'm ready to embark on a new adventure—with you! If you're looking for a canine companion who's equal parts sweet and resilient, I'm your girl. Let's create pawsitive memories together! To see more Videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq8nv6bA-gw&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JysumlIgT81Jz5NFkBeh-8S
