Story
Meet Nita (formerly Joan)
Currently in Oregon City, US
Age: 8 months
Sex: Spayed Female
Breed: Jindo Mix
Color: Ivory
Weight: Approx. 37 lbs (16.8 kg)
Height: 43 cm / 17 in at the shoulder
Rescue Story
Nita was rescued from a dog meat farm in Korea, where she was given a second chance at life.
She was later adopted in the U.S. and has continued to blossom in her new environment. Due to a change in her adopter’s personal circumstances, Nita is now looking for a new forever family through no fault of her own.
Social with People
Nita is a sweet, affectionate, and goofy young girl who bonds closely with her people.
She was very friendly with both familiar people and strangers while in Korea, readily approaching people for affection and even showing her belly to people she had just met.
Since arriving in the U.S., she can be a little cautious around unfamiliar people at first, but she does well with gentle guidance and has become increasingly comfortable exploring new places and busier environments.
Social with Dogs
Nita is social and friendly with other dogs. She has done well with dogs of various sizes and enjoys greeting and spending time with them.
She was raised around other dogs in Korea and was comfortable sharing her environment with them. She generally avoids confrontation and tends to move away from dogs that are overly pushy or intense.
Nita loves her food and may try to sneak a bite from another dog’s bowl, so separate feeding can be helpful in a multi-dog home.
Cats & Other Animals
Nita has not lived with a cat, so her response to cats is currently unknown. A cat test may be available upon request.
Her response to farm animals has not been assessed.
Energy Level
Nita is a playful young dog with a moderate puppy energy level. She enjoys walks, exploring outdoors, playing, and spending time with her people, but she is also able to settle and relax after activity.
Walks & Training
Nita enjoys exploring on walks. She is curious but may occasionally hesitate when she encounters something unfamiliar or intimidating. With patience and gentle encouragement, she follows along well.
Her recall is still a work in progress, so she should always remain securely leashed outdoors while continuing her training.
At Home
Nita is house-trained and does well in her crate. She rarely barks and settles nicely indoors.
As a young rescue dog, she will continue to benefit from consistency, positive reinforcement, and a family willing to give her the time she needs to adjust to another new environment.
Nita is a sweet, goofy, affectionate young girl who has already been through many changes in her short life. She is looking for a committed family who will give her the stability, patience, and love she deserves.
