Story
Meet Snow — A Gentle Terrier Mix Ready for a Fresh Start   Name: Snow Age: 2 years Sex: Neutered Male Breed: Terrier Mix Color: White Weight: 6.1 kg Height: 33 cm (shoulder height)     Rescue Story   Snow was rescued from a severe animal hoarding situation where over 230 dogs were kept together. With support from the City of Seoul, the dogs received spay/neuter surgeries and vaccinations, and AKR partnered to provide foster care and adoption support. Snow is one of these survivors — now safe, learning about the world, and ready to find a loving forever home.     Personality with People   Snow is very affectionate and friendly. He happily approaches both familiar people and strangers, leans in for pets, and enjoys human contact. He does well with both women and men. Although he hasn’t met children under 13 yet, based on his gentle nature, we believe he would do well with them. Snow can be comfortably lifted and handled, and he does great during grooming appointments as well     Socialization with Other Dogs   Snow is extremely dog-friendly and enjoys greeting and playing with both familiar and unfamiliar dogs. He is especially comfortable with dogs of similar size and tends to avoid conflict — even if another dog provokes him, he usually ignores it and walks away.     Cats   Snow has not yet been tested with cats, but a cat test can be arranged if needed.     Energy Level   Snow has a moderate energy level. He enjoys outdoor time, and like many dogs rescued from hoarding situations, after about an hour of outdoor activity, he happily settles in for a long nap     ‍ Walking & Leash Skills   Because Snow had limited walking experience in the past, he may stop when something unfamiliar or scary appears. He will need consistent practice and patience, but he is easy to manage on leash and improves steadily with guidance.     Other Behaviors & Habits   • No food guarding with people or other dogs • No signs of separation anxiety at present • Due to his background living in a group, mild separation anxiety may appear in a home without other dogs • Rarely barks • Calm and well-behaved in a kennel • Uses both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty routines     Snow is a soft, gentle soul who is still learning what it means to live as a beloved family dog. With patience and love, he will make a wonderful companion   Currently in Korea Available for adoption to Canada & the U.S. Please also visit our Facebook or Instagram.

Story
– Dotty   Name: Dotty Age: 9 months Sex: Spayed Female Breed: Terrier mix Color: White / Black Weight: 4.5 kg Height: 27 cm (shoulder height)   Rescue Story   Dotty was rescued from animal hoarding situation, where over 230 dogs were being kept. With support from the city, the dogs received spay/neuter surgery and vaccinations. AKR is currently working in cooperation to provide foster care and adoption support so Dotty can find a loving forever home.   Human Social Skills   Dotty is extremely affectionate and loves people. She happily approaches both familiar faces and strangers, leans in for cuddles, and allows handling with ease. She is comfortable with both men and women and will even show her belly to people she just met. She can be picked up easily by placing an arm under her belly.   She has not lived with children under 13, but based on her temperament, we believe she would do well with respectful kids.   Like many dogs rescued from hoarding or breeding environments, Dotty can struggle with separation anxiety. She is very people-oriented and, while not constant, may occasionally howl or cry intensely when left alone. Because of this, she may not be suitable for apartments with strict noise restrictions or homes where she is left alone for long hours.   Dog Social Skills   Dotty may approach unfamiliar dogs to sniff, but she generally does not engage in play. Even in off-leash areas, she tends to sit quietly or nap rather than interact. She shows little interest in other dogs and strongly prefers human companionship.   Cats   When she sees cats during walks, Dotty usually just watches them quietly and moves on once they leave. Cat testing is available upon request.   Energy Level   Dotty has a low energy level and enjoys relaxing calmly most of the time. However, she is very food-motivated and surprisingly agile — she can jump onto tables or desks, so food management and supervision are important to prevent accidents.   Walks   Although she doesn’t have extensive walking experience, Dotty is quite brave outdoors. On her very first walk, she successfully went potty outside. She is not fearful of cars and enjoys sniffing and exploring her surroundings.   Other Notes   • No food guarding toward people or dogs • Generally quiet, but may howl when left alone • Calm and well-behaved in a kennel • Currently doing outdoor potty training   Dotty is a sweet, people-loving little companion who would thrive in a home where she can spend plenty of time with her humans. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate dog who wants nothing more than to be close to you, Dotty may be your perfect match.

QUICK FACTS Name: Toby Age: 1 Year (Born November 2024) Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Terrier mix Color: White, Brown Weight: 7kg / 15.4lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was at risk of euthanasia at the city pound due to overcrowding, but I was rescued just in time. Now, I’m ready for a fresh start and can’t wait to find my forever family!   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi! I’m Toby. Even cuter in person, I love people and dog friends and am surprisingly calm for a 1-year-old pup. One of my favorite tricks is offering my paw for attention—it’s adorable and works every time! I’m sweet, smart, and always ready to charm everyone I meet.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m super friendly and love people! I enjoy greeting new friends, soaking up pets and affection, and giving my paw for extra treats. You can even pick me up—how can you resist my cuteness?   · With Dogs: I enjoy playing with my dog friends and meeting new ones. I generally get along best with dogs my size or smaller. I don’t guard my food against my dog friends. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. Due to my friendly personality, I may get along well with dog savvy cats. A cat test can be arranged upon request for the best match!   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level—I enjoy some outdoor time to burn off energy, then I happily snuggle and relax indoors.   TRAINING & HABITS I’m still learning leash skills and can freeze sometimes, though I’m improving every day. I do best on walks with another dog for emotional support. I don’t guard my food, rarely bark, and rest calmly in my kennel. I potty both indoors (using a pee pad) and outdoors.   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, and a stable environment. A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout. A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together. A family that will love and cherish me forever.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a sweet, gentle, and adorable boy who loves people and dog friends! I’m calm and collected for my age, and one of my favorite things is playing with my friends at the care facility. I’m not overly motivated by food, and I’m considered a level 2 rescue dog, meaning I’ll need a few days to settle into my new home and feel comfortable.   Toby's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2595122##

Story
I’m a small Jack Russell Terrier mix girl, weighing about 6kg. I may be tiny, but my heart is incredibly big. My sister and I were rescued after wandering the streets at a very young age. Even though life was tough in the beginning, I never let it take away my bright spirit or my warm, loving nature. I love other dogs and make friends easily. Meeting new furry buddies is one of my favorite things, and I’m always gentle and friendly. I adore people even more — if our eyes meet, my tail starts wagging before I can even think about it! I just can’t help wanting to be close to you. I’m also a great walking companion. I match your pace beautifully and enjoy taking in the world around me with calm curiosity. Walks with me are peaceful, happy moments. I’m still a puppy, so I’m learning my potty manners at home. But don’t worry — I’m smart, eager to please, and I pay close attention to my humans. With a bit of consistency and love, I’ll learn quickly. Above all, I’m a little girl who loves giving and receiving affection. My heart is warm, soft, and ready to belong to someone special. I’m waiting patiently — and hopefully — for my first and forever family. If you can give a small life like me a warm home and endless love, I promise to give you all of my heart in return. 💛 With love, Seri 🐶💕

Story
I’m a small Jack Russell Terrier mix girl, around 6kg, with a beautiful leopard-patterned coat that everyone says is super charming. I was rescued while wandering the streets with my sister Seri, but even after all that, I’ve grown into one of the happiest, warmest little puppies you’ll ever meet. I get along wonderfully with other dogs and adjust quickly to new places and new friends. I’m very affectionate with people, too — call my name and I’ll run right over, or I might quietly tuck myself right beside your leg, just wanting to be close. Walks are my absolute favorite! I’m full of curiosity, so I love sniffing around, exploring new sights, and enjoying every moment outside. Even with all my excitement, I don’t pull or rush ahead, so walking with me is always pleasant and easy. Since I’m still a puppy, I’m learning my potty training skills, but I’m smart and quick to pick things up — I’ll get the hang of it with gentle, consistent teaching. I may be small, but I have a big, warm presence that melts hearts the moment you meet me. I’m waiting for the family who will love me forever and let me share my bright, curious energy with them. If you can give a cozy, loving home to a little girl full of wonder and affection, I’ll give you all the love in my tiny body in return. 💛 With love, Nerie 🐶✨
