Story
"MISTY" is a KOKONI/JACK RUSSELL MIX about 2 years old and weighs approx. 6 kg or 12 pounds. Anastasia found her while going to the market, just walking on the side of a highly trafficked road, right by the exit to the highway. She immediately picked her up - thanking the Heavens the little dog didn’t follow the way leading to the big artery. After a brief visit with our vet for all the proper exams and a clean health bill she brought her to our sanctuary, where jolly "MISTY" fit right in with all our guests. "MISTY" proved very social with animals (dogs and cats) and people. She is inquisitive, playful and fearless. She loves to play with our puppies and then come to the volunteers for her share of pets and cuddles. "MISTY" is very intelligent and quite food oriented, a combination that makes her easily trainable. We have fully vetted, vaccinated, micro-chipped and spayed "MISTY" all the while making sure she gets housebroken and leash trained. "MISTY" would be happy in any sort of family setting. If interested in adopting our clever girl "MISTY" please visit our website to fill out an application at; www.straypawsfromgreece.com Please also SHARE this posting to help us find her a forever family and home

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Ppomi Age: 1 years and a half Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Brown Color: Terrier mix Weight: 6.7kg / 15lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from the euthanasia list at a city pound along with my sister, Pyopyo. We were scared and out of time, but rescuers stepped in just when we needed them most. Now we’re both safe, loved, and ready to start our new lives—and I can’t wait to find my very own forever family.   MY HEALTH Spayed & no known health issues All vaccinations up-to-date   MY PERSONALITY II’m a little shy when meeting new people, but I warm up quickly and reveal my sweet, affectionate side. I’m such a lovable pup—you’ll notice my sweetness right away!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m a bit shy at first, but I quickly warm up with treats and gentle pets. You can even pick me up once I feel comfortable! · With Dogs: I enjoy meeting new dog friends, but I like to take my time before jumping into play. I usually get along best with dogs my size, and if another dog is being rude, I simply walk away from the drama.   · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request.   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level — I enjoy my time outdoors exploring and playing, and then I’m happy to settle down and relax indoors.   TRAINING & HABITS I usually walk well on leash, though I can pull sometimes and get scared by loud noises, which makes me freeze. I walk best in quieter areas and am still learning leash manners. I don’t guard my food and I potty both indoors (with 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. Ideally, I’d love a home with another dog sibling—or even better, for my sister Pyopyo and me to be adopted together.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a sweet and gentle girl who can be a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly with treats and kind words. I love being near people and enjoy gentle pets once I feel comfortable. I’m friendly with dog friends too, and I especially love spending time with my sister Pyopyo—we’re very bonded and feel happiest when we’re together. With a little patience and love, I’ll show you just how affectionate, loyal, and playful I can be!       Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2587406##

Story
Uju was found in the corner of a rural chicken coop, left there with her one-month-old puppy, surviving on moldy rice. There was no protection, no care— just day after day of quietly enduring life. It was only through rescue that Uju was finally given a chance to begin again. People often say, “A baby gave birth to a baby,” because Uju herself was so small, fragile, and young. And yet, despite everything she went through, Uju never learned to resent people. She shows signs that she once lived in a home: ✔ She uses pee pads well ✔ She understands basic commands like “sit” She is a smart and quick learner. More than anything, Uju loves people deeply. She is affectionate, loves to stay close to her humans, and gets along well with other dogs without aggression. Overall, she has a gentle, easygoing personality. At times, her desire to be loved is so strong that she may show a little jealousy— not out of dominance, but because her heart is full of longing for human affection. It’s simply another sign of how much she cares. Uju carries an incredible amount of love inside her small body. Now, she waits— not for a cold, hungry place, but for a warm home where she can be loved for the rest of her life. Please welcome Uju into your life not out of pity, but as a family willing to protect and cherish her until the end. She will return that love many times over. 🌙💛

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
Hi, I'm Vanilla! 🐶✨ A little lovebug with a big heart, ready to start a brand new chapter — maybe with you? I'm a 2-year-old girl, full of energy, love, and second chances. I didn’t always have it easy — I was left behind at an oyster factory in Tongyeong, forgotten and alone. Even after having four puppies, no one looked out for me… but that’s all in the past now. I was rescued, and ever since, I've been learning how beautiful life can be when you’re loved. Now I know how to trust, how to play, and most of all — how to love back. I’ve even picked up some smart tricks like “sit,” “paw,” and “go to your house!” Not bad, right? I’m super friendly and absolutely adore people — men and women alike. I haven’t met many young children yet, and since I’m pretty bouncy and energetic, I might do best with older kids who can match my vibe. Other dogs? LOVE them. I get excited to meet new furry friends and will happily introduce myself first! I haven’t met any cats yet, so I can’t say how we’d get along, but I don’t have any aggression or prey drive — I’m more about snuggles and zoomies than anything else. I’m still working on leash training, and I’m not totally used to living indoors yet, but I’m a quick learner. If you show me the way, I’ll follow. I’m a good girl with my barking, too — I might bark when someone new comes in or if I’m really excited, but if you say “no,” I usually settle down quickly. I love being touched, hugged, and cuddled, especially by women. I’ll even give you gentle hugs to show you how much I care. With male guardians, I’m respectful — if you’re not in the mood for snuggles, I’ll understand and give you space. I enjoy toys but I don’t destroy things in the house, and I’m not possessive over food or toys either. Sharing is caring, right? Health-wise, I’m in great shape — no major illnesses in my past, just a whole lot of resilience and a heart full of love. Now all that’s missing is a forever family. A warm home. A couch to cuddle on. A person — or people — who will never leave me behind again. Could that be you? I’m ready to be your joy, your companion, and your sunshine. Let’s write our story together. 💛 With love, Vanilla
