Story
This precious pup is Winnie! She is a female, approx 3 year old, Boston Terrier/Japanese Chin mix (best guess). Winnie came to us when she was rescued along with her brother and son from a terrible situation where the dogs were kept tied up, living outside with only boxes as their shelter. Thankfully, we were able to get the owner to relinqish them and they came straight to us where they were fully vetted and went into wonderful foster homes. The brother and son have been adopted, but Winnie is still in search of her forever family. We are looking for a home for her with another sweet but playful pup and owners that are not gone long hours during the day. A home with a safe and secure yard she can run around in would be great! Winnie had a very rough life in her past so we want to make sure that she gets the forever home she deserves! Winnie is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. We only adopt in So Calif as an in person meet/greet, home check, and trial period are required. Please contact us at gina@theforgottendog.org or 310-990-2020

Story
Meet Heemong l! He is the sweetest boyl! He is a 2 year old that was rescued from a breeding farm before heading to a dog meat farm in South Korea.  We have partners we work with there that pull these dogs from the worst horrors imaginable.  Many of these dogs start off in horiffic puppy mill type facilities on tiny rabbit cage size wire crates in complete filth.  If they are not sold at 6 or 8 weeks then they either stay for a couple years to be used to breed more and then are sold off to the meat trade, or they are sold off right away.  Jindo's and Tosa's are the most common meat type dogs, and are very commonly bred specifically for their meat and the meat farms also act as breeding farms until they reach a good age and weight. South Korea is one of the only countries that actually farms dogs for their meat.   Restaurants will serve a dish called " bosintang ", which stands for "dog meat soup". It's a popular dish in South  Korea,  and is said to act as an aphrodisiac for men.    Little dogs are used for elixirs and potions.  The younger generation is mostly against this practice and many choose to not eat them, and we can only hope in time with education and generations of change that an end will come to this horrific trade. Heemong and some of his family and friends have been flown here for a chance at a future and a real life.  These are miracle dogs that they are alive today.  Our adoption fee is $600 which helps offset some of the flight costs.  If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application form at  https://form.jotform.com/oscarlucy/dog-adoption-app May 14, 2026, 5:48 pm
