Story
**Note: Ohoh is currently in Korea, but he will fly to San Francisco once adopted. Background Ohoh’s life hasn’t been easy. As a tiny puppy, he was found wandering in an apartment complex in Wanju, Korea. He was sent to a city pound, where he spent the next five years chained in a poor shelter with little comfort or care. This summer, Ohoh finally came to us and has been living at our boarding house, where he is safe and loved while waiting for his forever family. Personality & Socialization Ohoh is a gentle, sweet, and loyal boy with a calm, easygoing nature. He has medium energy, happy to go for walks and spend time with people, but also content to relax quietly by your side. He’s very friendly with people, both men and women, and loves being close to his humans. When it comes to other dogs, Ohoh gets along well with gentle, friendly, and well-mannered dogs. He does not do well with overly bossy, dominant, or hyper dogs. Behaviour Ohoh is well-behaved, obedient, and very smart. He bonds strongly with people and follows their lead easily. He rides calmly in the car, tolerates bath time, and is cooperative at the vet. He walks nicely on a leash, enjoys outdoor potty breaks, and is quiet indoors. We’ve rarely heard him bark. With a little training, Ohoh will blossom into a wonderful lifelong companion. Health & Diet Ohoh is neutered, microchipped, and fully up to date on his vaccines. He is dewormed and on monthly parasite prevention. When first rescued, he was treated for anaplasmosis, and he has since made a full recovery. He’s in good health and ready for his forever home. Ohoh eats dry kibble twice a day and has shown no allergies. Ideal Home Ohoh will thrive with a family looking for a calm, gentle, and loyal companion. He gets along well with other gentle, quiet, and well-mannered dogs, but he would be happiest as the only dog in a calm home. A quiet, relaxed lifestyle where he can soak up love and attention from his humans would be perfect for him. Ohoh is an easygoing and affectionate boy who simply wants to be by your side. Whoever adopts him will be very lucky. -------------------------------- For more info about the dog or adoption application, please follow the link below. https://www.freekoreandogs.org/dog/ohoh/

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Sam is a big goofy Doberman who will steal your heart the second you meet him. He loves chasing the frisbee and is the ultimate shadow dog. Wherever you go, he goes. Loyal, silly, and endlessly entertaining. He is obedience trained with great recall, which for a Doberman says a lot about how smart and willing he is. He is not just a pretty face! We are heartbroken to have to rehome him. This has nothing to do with who Sam is and everything to do with landlord insurance restrictions that are completely out of our hands. He is loved deeply and this decision has not been easy. Sam would do best with someone active who wants a dog that is truly their best friend. If you have the space and the heart for a frisbee loving, goofy, velcro boy, he is your guy.

Story
Meet Carolina Reaper: The Ultimate Low-Key Loyal Companion If you’re looking for a professional napper and a fiercely loyal best friend, Carolina Reaper is your girl. Don’t let the "spicy" name fool you—she is 90% sugar and 10% heat, as long as there’s a couch involved! Her Vibe: Carolina is a "thinker" with a heart of gold. She is a couch potato through and through. While some dogs want to hike for miles, Carolina prefers a quick trip to the yard to do her business before heading right back inside to reclaim her spot on the sofa. She is incredibly affectionate and truly believes she is a lap dog, often climbing right into your lap for snuggles. The Routine Queen: Carolina thrives on a schedule. If you like predictability, she’s your gal: 7:00 AM: Potty, breakfast, a little playtime, and then a morning nap. 12:00 PM: Nap time continues, ideally with a favorite bone to chew on. 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM: Potty break, some light play, another bone session, and then settling in for the night. Her "Perfect Match": Loyalty: Carolina is deeply loyal to "her" person. She is looking for a human who will be just as dedicated to her as she is to them. Home Environment: She prefers a home where she can be the center of attention or live with a canine sibling who matches her mellow energy. Cats: No thank you! Carolina finds chasing cats a bit too much fun, so a feline-free home is a must. Visitors: She can be reactive to new faces. Her ideal family is one comfortable using a crate in a different room when guests arrive, allowing her to feel safe and secure until she gets used to the company. Crate Manners: She is a pro in her crate! She never cries or barks unless she genuinely needs to go outside. The Bottom Line: Carolina is a stunning brown and white sweetheart who catches on to new things in a heartbeat. She just wants a quiet life, a soft lap, and someone to love forever. ##2667441##

Story
And all that Jazz! This spunky little Parson Russell Terrier mix truly lives up to her adorable name. She’s a joyful bundle of energy who comes rushing in with kisses and cuddles, eager to share her love. It’s clear she was cherished in her previous home, and that same happy, affectionate spirit shines through in everything she does. Darling Jazz is spayed, vaccinated, and ready for a fresh start in a wonderful new chapter of her life. She’s comfortable with other dogs and would happily fit into a multi-dog household. Friendly with everyone she meets, Jazz has a sweet, sassy personality and a big heart—sometimes showing it with an enthusiastic smooch or two! What Jazz wants most is to be part of a family again. She would thrive with a single adopter, a couple, or a family with older kids who can match her lively, loving nature. Whether it’s hiking trails, strolling through the neighborhood, or riding shotgun with the wind in her ears, Jazz is ready to be by your side on all your adventures. If you’re looking for a little “life of the party” sweetheart who will fill your home with love and fun, then Jazz is your girl!
