**About Zoe:** Thank you for interested in adopting Zoe. Please know that Zoe is an international rescue through Taiwan. When your application is approved, you will need to pick her up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. Personality Zoe is a very friendly, playful, energetic, and affectionate girl. Whether she is at a dog park or an adoption event, she always behaves with great confidence. She loves being touched by people. Strangers, male or female, can pet her without any issue. She even rolls over and sweetly lets strangers rub her belly. 🔷 Food Guarding Behavior With people, Zoe shows no signs of food guarding at all; you can even take food directly from her mouth. With other dogs, as long as each dog has its own bowl and maintains a proper distance while eating kibble, Zoe does not display any food guarding behavior. However, when it comes to high-value treats, if another dog nearby is more eager or moves quickly toward the treat, Zoe may turn her head, show her teeth, or bark as a warning. This behavior should be carefully monitored. 🔷 Home She enjoys sitting on the sofa and can sleep on a mat or elevated bed. At her foster home, she sleeps in a crate for both naps and at night (this is for easier management due to the number of dogs). When she stayed with her rescuer, she slept on a floor mat in the bedroom since dogs weren’t allowed on the bed. However, she sometimes jumped onto the bed in the morning; if told to get down, she would obediently return to her mat. She rarely barks at home, only when someone enters the immediate front area of the house. Once the person leaves, she stops barking. 🔷 Transportation She is comfortable riding in the car and does not get carsick. 🔷 Bathing She behaves very well during baths and is cooperative when having her anal glands expressed. She is also fine with having her fur blow-dried using either a pet dryer or a standard hair dryer. 🔷 Walking on Leash She walks steadily on a leash. However, if she sees cats, squirrels, mice, birds, or cockroaches, she may get excited and try to rush forward, but she is easily managed. When preparing for a walk, she gets very excited indoors and may jump or pounce on people. Asking her to sit (and being firm about it) before opening the door is recommended. Sometimes, if she urgently needs to pee or poop, she may pull briefly during the walk, but she returns to her normal pace afterward. Occasionally, when she doesn't want to go home yet, she will stand still and refuse to move. Just stay firm, and she will eventually follow. 🔷 With Other Dogs She generally gets along well with other dogs. She is playful but can be a bit rough, which not all dogs appreciate. When going for walks or visiting dog parks, observe how other dogs respond to her enthusiasm. 🔷 With People She is very affectionate and loves both men and women. However, she once got scared by a small child, so she is not very comfortable around preschool-aged children. Currently, if a child runs toward her quickly, she becomes nervous and barks. At dog parks, if small children are present, it is best to put her on a leash first to observe her reaction. ❌❌ Dislikes She dislikes the sound of high heels—especially heeled slippers hitting the floor. This noise scares her and can cause her to bark. ❤️❤️ Likes She loves toys, especially plushies and balls. She doesn’t usually destroy plush toys, but for other types of chew toys, ensure they are durable and appropriate for her strength. 🔷 Affectionate Behavior She is extremely affectionate. Sometimes, when her rescuer naps on the living room sofa, Zoe will come over and ask for cuddles. If the petting stops, she will use her paw to ask for more. This is generally fine, but when her nails are long, her pawing can accidentally scratch you. You can correct this behavior by speaking firmly—she understands and will lie down quietly. 🔷 Potty Training At her foster home, she uses pee pads or artificial grass for potty breaks. When outside, she can also relieve herself quickly during walks. 🔷 Interaction with Cats She gets excited and tends to chase cats, so she is not recommended for adoption by a family that currently owns cats.

I was pulled from El Campo Animal Control, along with my puppies, because I had delivered a litter of six pups in the shelter.

**About Mini:** Thank you for your interest in adopting Mini. Please know that Mini is an international rescue through Taiwan. When your application is approved, you will need to pick her up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, IAH, YVR, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we‘ve done the process for many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works. Mini's Rescue Story Personality: Mini is absolutely the most perfect FMD (Formosan Mountain Dog) we have ever encountered. No word describes her better than "perfect." Mini was once tied up with a heavy chain outside a house. The house was empty—no one lived there. The owner had simply tied Mini and another dog there, often leaving them without food or water. Since both dogs were chained and unable to forage, they could only bark for help. It was these barks that a member of our rescue organization heard while passing by. The rescuer tried to find the owner but quickly realized the house was abandoned. Neighbors said the owner only came by occasionally. Because the dogs were chained on private property right by the door, the rescuers couldn't take them immediately, so they committed to bringing them food every day. One day, the rescuer saw Mini wandering outside alone. Unsure why she had been abandoned, Mini was just moving aimlessly, sniffing for food, and even approaching people for attention. When she saw the rescuer from a distance, Mini recognized her. She quickly ran over and immediately lay on the ground, rolling onto her belly to show affection. Knowing Mini had been deliberately abandoned, the rescuer took her home immediately. What makes Mini so incredible is how incredibly smart and friendly she is. She immediately learned to use pee pads indoors and was accurate every time. Her calm, non-confrontational, and incredibly optimistic personality means she gets along wonderfully with people (including children), cats, and other dogs! Mini's rescuer summarizes her by saying: "Goofy, great natured, and very easy to care for." This perfect personality makes her an ideal match for both first-time and experienced families. Mini spent her early life chained up and hungry. Now, she is ready to find her forever home—a home that can give her the warmth and love she has always deserved. If you are interested in Mini, please contact us anytime!

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to SEA💟 Meet Horang🐯 (Horang means Tiger in Korean) 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1.) Health Condition * Spayed. * Heartworm negative. 2.) Rescue Story * Horang waited a long time for a family at the Cheongju City Shelter, but no one adopted her. As her holding period had expired, she was at risk of euthanasia. Fortunately, Adogs rescued her just in time. 3.) Basic Information * With People: Is a bit shy and feels uncomfortable with people at first. When she gets used to them, she welcomes them, and barks happily as if displaying her feeling of intimacy! * With Dogs: Growls at new dogs at first and expresses discomfort. Recently shows her reluctance to go to where other dogs gather. Feels uncomfortable when she has to share a living space and tries to avoid going there. Does not chase after other dogs nor attack them, though. Has recently shown persistent interest in a new friend, so we are focusing on training to address the issue. * With Cats: When encountering cats on a walk, she gets very excited and runs to chase them. Sometimes shows aggressiveness at them, so caution is needed. * Separation Anxiety: Currently lives at our center, so it's hard to know for sure. * Potty Training: Is 100% outdoor potty trained, even though she is staying alone in her separate kennel. * Walks: Loves walks, especially running or trotting ones! Sometimes gets excited and pulls on the leash hard during walks. Occasionally chases after a small dog or cat as running at them. Is currently learning one by one while getting walk training! * Car Sickness: Still being observed, but so far, doesn't seem to get car sick. * Bark: When seeing other dogs go out for a walk, she sometimes barks to express her desire to go out. * Like: Loves treats and walks! * Dislike: With a lot of other dogs, she gets very uncomfortable and may become stiff due to the discomfort.
