Meet Maggie, A Wonder Woman Wearing a Catwoman Mask 🐶 Once a volunteer accidently dropped her leash and let her run away. Within minutes, Maggie returned on her own and gave the volunteer a big hug. She even brought a stick as a peace offering. It is amazing to see Maggie still has complete faith in humanity despite of surviving from Mass Dog Slaughterhouse. Maggie will love you whether you live in a little trailer or a big house. No matter what kind of mood you are in, Maggie can always make you smile. Can you be a special someone to give Maggie a home?

Story
Meet Bella❤️ Bella was rescued from a mass dog slaughter house. She had stayed in a floating iron cage for a long time so the patellas of her hind legs are not good. But she wasn't properly cared for, so her legs solidified. Byt she can walk and run well! Regardless of her harsh past, she's very good with people and other dogs👍

💙 Name: Youngji 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 1 year old (Born in December 2024) 💙 Weight: 7.8 kg /17.2 lb 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1⃣ Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped, heartworm negative, and currently being treated for giardia. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Youngji was staying at the Gimje City Shelter together with #AdogsJiyeong.

To prevent Yeongji from spending the winter alone in the harsh shelter environment—exposed to infectious diseases and the cold—Adogs urgently rescued her. 3⃣ Basic Information * With people: Is shy and does not approach people first. As time passes, she gradually opens her heart and begins to playfully interact with people. * With dogs: In unfamiliar environments, she stays close to and relies on Jiyeong, who was rescued with her. Once she becomes comfortable, she approaches other dogs, sniffs them, and plays together. * With cats: Has not met them yet. * Separation Anxiety: Not confirmed as she currently resides at our center. Training will be needed from the beginning in a home environment. * Potty Training: Currently goes potty outdoors at our center. * Walks: Has not yet experienced walks, as she arrived at our center recently. * Car sickness: Has not shown any signs of motion sickness so far. * Has never shown biting behavior. * Whines when being put into or taken out of her kennel.
