Story
Meet Mimi
6 yrs | 13 kg | Jindo mix | Spayed Female |
Rescue Story
Mimi came to the Wanju Shelter in July 2024 and gave birth to two puppies, Heokmi and Hyunmi, on August 1. After her puppies were adopted and flown overseas, Mimi was finally rescued herself in March 2025.
She underwent leg surgery to correct an old fracture that had healed improperly — her leg bone was realigned and stabilized with a plate. She’s now fully recovered and walks beautifully!
Personality
Mimi is a sweet, affectionate girl who loves people — not only familiar faces but also strangers! She enjoys gentle petting, loves treats, and easily forms bonds with anyone who shows her kindness.
She’s friendly with both men and women and hasn’t lived with young children before, but given her gentle, people-loving nature, she’s likely to do well with calm, respectful kids.
She can be picked up gently (arms under her belly) and often rolls over to show her belly when she’s relaxed and happy.
With Other Dogs
Mimi greets other dogs politely but prefers quiet companionship over playtime. She enjoys her alone time and may get annoyed if other dogs bother her when she’s resting.
She’s generally friendly toward dogs her size or smaller and sometimes enjoys playful interaction with gentle male dogs. Overall, Mimi prefers people over dogs — she’s happiest just being near her humans.
With Cats
Mimi shows curiosity and some excitement around cats. She doesn’t attack or lunge, but if a cat hisses or teases her, she may respond with a quick nip-like motion. For safety, she was separated during testing.
She barks or gets excited when she sees cats from a distance, so a home without cats (or with very careful, slow introduction) would be best.
Energy Level
Low energy. Mimi loves calm days and cozy naps — a gentle, easygoing companion who thrives in peaceful environments.
Walking
She’s an excellent walker! Mimi has plenty of walking experience, doesn’t pull on the leash, and follows her person beautifully.
Other Notes
Mimi loves food and may guard her meal if another dog tries to take it. It’s best to feed her separately from other food-motivated dogs.
She’s quiet overall — she may bark during mealtime out of excitement but rarely otherwise. She has no separation anxiety, stays calm in a kennel, and currently prefers outdoor potty breaks.
Mimi is a gentle, loyal soul who’s been through so much yet remains full of love.
She’s ready to find her forever home — one that’s calm, patient, and full of warmth.
