Story
MEET ROSIE 4 years old | Spayed Female | Terrier Mix | 6.3 kg (14 lbs) | 36 cm | Beige   Sweet, affectionate, and happiest around people, Rosie is a gentle little Terrier mix looking for her forever family.   Rescue Story   In December 2025, Rosie was brought to a shelter after a report that she had been hit by a car. Thankfully, she did not sustain any serious injuries from the accident. She is now safe and ready to start a new chapter with a family of her own.   With People   Rosie is a friendly and affectionate girl who loves people. She approaches both familiar faces and strangers easily, often rubbing against them for attention and happily accepting pets.   She can be picked up comfortably with an arm under her belly, and once she gets to know you, she’ll even roll over and show you her belly.   With Other Dogs   Rosie will approach unfamiliar dogs to say hello, but she generally isn’t interested in playing or interacting much with other dogs. She much prefers people!   She can feel nervous or uncomfortable around dogs larger than herself. Even with smaller dogs, she prefers those who respect her space and will avoid dogs that are overly pushy or energetic.   Rosie may be happiest as the only dog in the home or with a calm, respectful canine companion.   With Cats   Rosie’s reaction to cats has not yet been observed. A cat test can be arranged if needed.   Energy Level   Rosie has a moderate energy level. She enjoys spending time outdoors and going for walks, but after getting her exercise, she settles down nicely and is happy to relax.   On Walks   Rosie sometimes has her own ideas about which direction she’d like to go, but overall she follows her handler well and enjoys walking in quieter areas.   Busy roads with lots of traffic, loud noises, or sudden sounds can make her nervous, and she may hesitate or try to avoid going toward them. A quieter walking environment and patient guidance will help her feel more secure.   At Home   Rosie has many lovely everyday manners:   She shows no food guarding toward people or other dogs. She rarely barks. She stays calm in her kennel. She does most of her bathroom business outdoors.   Rosie at a glance: Affectionate • People-loving • Gentle • Moderate energy • Quiet • Calm in her kennel • Prefers respectful dogs • Happiest close to her humans   Rosie may not be looking for a canine best friend—because what she really wants is a human best friend.

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Cheesebam Age: About 6 Months Old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Mix Color: White and Brown Weight: 10kg / 22lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was found neglected in a rural area, living next door to Nacho, who was also being left without proper care. Thankfully, rescuers found me too and brought me to safety, giving me the chance to experience the care and kindness I had been missing. Now, I’m ready to leave those days behind and begin a brighter new chapter with a loving forever family.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Cheesebam! I’m a sweet, energetic pup with a whole lot of enthusiasm packed into one little body. I still have that wonderfully chaotic puppy energy—I’m active, curious, and ready to go! I also have many of the classic traits you might expect from a Jack Russell Terrier, so I’d be happiest with a family who genuinely enjoys an active lifestyle and is excited to have a lively young companion by their side. I have a big appetite to match my big energy, and staying active is definitely important for me. I would love to have opportunities to move, explore, play, and put all that youthful energy to good use. If hiking and outdoor adventures are already part of your routine, I could be an especially fun companion to bring along. I’d thrive with a family who looks at my energetic puppy personality and thinks, “That sounds like fun!” I’ll need people who are ready to continue my training and socialization while giving me plenty of appropriate physical activity and engagement. In return, you’ll get a spirited, sweet young companion who has already shown that he can learn and improve with experience—and who would be thrilled to grow up alongside a family that loves being just as active as he is.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m naturally friendly and affectionate with people, and I’m comfortable approaching both familiar faces and new people for attention. I enjoy leaning in for affection and am happy to be petted, and treats make it even easier for me to warm up and connect with someone new. I’m also comfortable being gently picked up with an arm supporting me under my belly. · With Dogs: I’m friendly and social with other dogs, and I enjoy approaching both familiar and new dogs to say hello and invite them to play. I generally do well with dogs around my own size. However, if another dog challenges or provokes me, I may respond rather than back away, so careful and gradual introductions are important when I’m meeting a new dog for the first time. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a high energy level – I thrive with plenty of outdoor activity and exercise. Once I’ve had a good opportunity to burn off my energy, I’m able to settle down and relax. I can pull on the leash at times, but overall, I follow my person well and respond to their guidance on walks.   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs I’m calm and settled when I’m in a kennel I’m accustomed to doing my business outdoors and generally prefer outdoor potty breaks.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together A family that will love and cherish me forever   SPECIAL NOTES I’m still a young pup with more socialization ahead of me, so continued positive experiences and thoughtful introductions will help me keep building on the progress I’ve already made.    CHEESEBAM'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2821421##

Story
Hello! My name is Mongdol, and I'm an 8kg, 7-month-old little boy looking for my forever family. Not too long ago, my brother and I were found wandering alone on a quiet country road. We were rescued together, and my brother has already found his forever home. Now it's my turn to find a family who will love me for the rest of my life. Since I'm still just a puppy, I absolutely love people and other dogs! I get excited to meet new friends and enjoy playing with canine buddies. I also love going for walks and exploring the world around me. Every day is a new adventure, and I can't wait to discover it with my future family. Because I'm only seven months old, I have lots of puppy energy! I love to play, and like any growing puppy, I'm in the stage where I explore the world by chewing and investigating everything around me. I'll need plenty of fun toys, exercise, and patient guidance to help me grow into a well-mannered adult dog. I'm eager to learn—I just need someone willing to teach me with kindness and consistency. Since I'm still young, I may develop separation anxiety if I'm left alone for long periods without preparation. If my new family helps me gradually learn that alone time is safe, I'll become much more confident and independent. I'm doing very well with my potty training! Of course, moving to a brand-new home can be a little overwhelming, so I might have an occasional accident while I'm adjusting. Once I settle into my new routine, I learn quickly and do my best. One little thing about me—I drink a bit more water than most dogs, so I need to go outside to potty more often. Right now, I'm healthy and doing great! I currently eat an insect-protein diet, and I'm not picky at all when it comes to treats. If you have snacks, I promise I'll be your biggest fan! I'm still learning about this big world, so I don't need a family expecting perfection. What I really need is a family that will grow with me, celebrate my progress, and love me through every stage of my life. The cute little puppy you see today will grow into a wonderful lifelong companion, and I'd love for you to be part of that journey. My brother already found his happily ever after, and now I'm patiently waiting for mine. I dream of a home where we can go on adventures together, play with my favorite toys, cuddle after a fun day, and make wonderful memories for years to come. I may be a playful little rascal now, but with love, patience, and guidance, I'll grow into the loyal best friend you've always dreamed of.

Story
Meet Andy 🤍 Andy came into our care with his mom, always tucked safely in her shadow—where she went, he followed. Because of that, the world is still a very big and unfamiliar place for him. Andy is a shy, sensitive boy who can be scared of new things, but he does not have a mean bone in his body. He is gentle, kind, and just needs time to feel safe. Once he trusts you, you’ll see the loving soul he truly is. He is crate trained and will let you know when he needs to go outside. He’s also starting to do well on a leash and is slowly learning that the world isn’t so scary after all. Sadly, his previous owner never took him beyond the home or yard, so everything is new to him—but he’s trying. Andy is scheduled to be neutered on the 17th and is microchipped, vet checked, up to date on his shots, dewormed, and has had flea treatment. What Andy needs most is a patient, kind-hearted person who will show him that people can be safe, gentle, and full of love. In the right home, Andy will blossom into the most loyal companion—you just have to give him that chance. He wants to love, and he’s hoping it will be you. 🐾 📍 Located in Bancroft Can you find it in your heart to give Andy the life he’s been waiting for? Ask for application adoption fee applies 600.00

Story
🏠 Currently in a Seattle foster homeHi, I'm Naru. 🐾 My name is Naru, and I'm a 3-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix weighing about 8 kg. People often tell me I'm extra cute because of my short little legs and my chubby body. I have a funny little waddle when I walk, and my black-and-white face looks like I'm wearing a tiny mask. I think it makes me pretty special. 🖤🤍Before I was rescued, I was living in a shelter where my time was running out. I don't know what my life could have been, but I was given a second chance. Now, all I'm hoping for is something simple—a family to love and a place where I belong.I get along well with other dogs and I'm always polite with them, but if I'm being honest... people are my favorite. More than playing with other dogs, I love sitting beside someone who calls my name, gently pets me, and lets me simply be close. Those quiet moments mean everything to me. I'm a calm and easygoing boy who rarely barks. At home, I'm happiest relaxing nearby while my family goes about their day. I'm not an overly energetic dog, but I do enjoy daily walks. Taking a slow stroll together, sniffing the fresh air, and exploring the world by your side would be the perfect adventure for me. 🌿You might notice that I'm missing my front teeth. We don't know exactly what happened in my past, but it doesn't bother me at all! I eat, play, and enjoy life just like any other dog. If anything, my little toothless smile just makes people fall in love with me even more. 😊 When we first meet, I may be a little reserved. I like to take a moment to make sure everything feels safe. But once I trust you, my affectionate side comes shining through. I'll happily lean against you, quietly follow you from room to room, and simply enjoy being near the person I love.I don't need a busy life or grand adventures. I just dream of a cozy home, gentle hands, peaceful walks, and someone who will look at me and say, "You're finally home." I've already been given a second chance at life. Now I'm waiting for the one thing I've never had... A forever family to call my own. ❤️🏡
