Story

Peppa is a sweet girl very playful. She has so much energy and unfortunately our busy schedule doesn’t let her correctly channel that energy. I don’t want her to be cooped up in her cage all day. I would love for her to have a yard to play in and someone who can train her properly so that she can roam around. She is potty trained but has accidents from time to time. I really want her to go to a loving home that can let her get her energy out so that she can behave better. She is not great around other dogs she gets anxious but I believer socializing her can also help ease her anxiety.

Lina(J)

Chihuahua Mutt

Female, 2 yrs 1 mo

Plainfield, NJ

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

🩷 Rescue Story Lina was rescued just before euthanasia from "Jeongeup Shelter" in South Korea. Thanks to timely intervention, she was given a second chance at life and moved into foster care, where her bright and affectionate personality has truly blossomed. 🌿 Temperament & Behavior Lina is friendly and social. On walks, she shows curiosity toward other dogs and cats, but when she meets a cat, she simply sniffs briefly and walks away calmly. She gets along well with other dogs and can live in a multi-dog household. She may show a bit of jealousy at times, as many girls do, but she has never shown aggression or biting behavior. She is extremely affectionate and loves attention. She is friendly with all people, though she is especially drawn to women and seems to have a soft spot for women in their 50s. 🚶 Walking & Daily Life Lina enjoys leisurely walks with plenty of time to sniff and explore. She is always walked using a double leash for safety. Her shedding level is moderate to slightly high, about 6 out of 10. She is not picky with food and is fed high-quality kibble. Her regular diet includes Acana Free-Run Duck or Blue Buffalo Salmon. Treats are given sparingly, about once a week. 🏡 Habits & Training Lina primarily does her potty outdoors. She goes on walks in the morning and evening, ranging from one hour to sometimes up to two hours. She does well with baths. While brushing hasn’t been necessary due to her coat type, she enjoys being touched and handled. She does not show separation anxiety. When her foster returns home, she simply greets them happily with tail wags and no destructive behavior. She barks only occasionally—once when she is in a great mood, or briefly in response to loud motorcycle delivery noises. She may experience mild motion sickness on longer car rides, such as trips to nearby camping areas, but she has never vomited. 💛 Likes & Personality Lina loves walking side by side with her foster mom and truly enjoys greeting and meeting her dog friends. Her gentle nature and affectionate personality make her a joy to be around. She is currently living in a foster home. ✨ Personality (Three Words): Innocent, affectionate, sweet.

Mallow(V)

Golden Retriever Jindo

Male, 3 yrs 7 mos

Plainfield, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Mallow - (Korean Name is Mandu) Mallow is a mixed breed, likely a blend of Retriever and Jindo. He currently weighs about 51 lbs. He entered a city shelter when he was around two years old. It's believed he was abandoned because he was highly excitable and barked a lot at the time. I rescued him just one day before his scheduled euthanasia. At that time, he was heartworm positive. Fortunately, he has now completed his treatment and been fully cured! After more than six months of consistent training, Mallow has transformed into a gentle and wonderful dog. He has great leash manners and absolutely adores people, showering them with affection. Mallow also gets along very well with other dogs. However, he can be a bit jealous, so we hope he can find a forever home where he can be the only pet. Fluffy and pure white like a marshmallow, Mallow will make a truly perfect companion. 🐾 Mallow is currently staying at a training center in South Korea, waiting patiently for his forever family. Once he finds an adoptive family, he can travel anywhere across the United States. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, and has even completed a full dental cleaning!
