Story
💙 Name: Lira 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 3 years old (Born October 2022) 💙 Weight: 10 kg (approx. 22 lbs) 💙 ADOGS Instagram (KR): @adogs 💙 English Profile: @_adogs_rescue 1⃣ Medical History - Neuter Status: Completed - Microchip: Registered (Internal chip completed) - Other Notes: Heartworm retest scheduled for December 2026 Dental scaling completed 2⃣ Rescue Story Lira spent a considerable amount of time at the Gimje Shelter. Passing through several harsh seasons in those poor shelter conditions, his health slowly began to decline. Deeply concerned that this gentle and timid boy would be exposed to deadly diseases, ADOGS stepped in urgently to rescue him. 3⃣ Personality & Characteristics - Interaction with Humans: He still gets a bit wary and barks when encountering strangers, but he recognizes familiar faces and welcomes them happily with a wagging tail. He allows physical touch when approached slowly, though he remains slightly awkward with it. In his foster home, he shows his shy interest by sniffing his foster parent's clothes or listening intently for the sound of their return when home alone. - Interaction with Dogs: He is mostly indifferent toward other dogs and generally minds his own business. However, he has occasionally barked at other dogs while at the shelter. - Interaction with Cats: He has not yet been introduced to cats. - Separation Anxiety: When alone at home, he wanders around quietly to eat scattered treats. He used to have occasional potty accidents right before his foster parent left, and recently he has been coming out to the living room once before heading back inside. Since this might be a subtle sign of separation anxiety, his foster parent is keeping a close eye on him. - Potty Training: He uses indoor pee pads at his foster home. He gets it right most of the time, but he may occasionally miss the pad when his foster parent leaves or when he feels anxious. - Grooming & Hygiene: He squirms a bit during brushing and nail trimming, but he patiently tolerates it. He experiences moderate shedding, and his nails are currently trimmed during vet visits. He has also recently started toothbrushing! - Leash Walking: Because he is still unaccustomed to walks, he tends to run away when someone tries to put his leash on. During walks, he may spin in circles or resist by digging his feet in when the leash is pulled, so he needs ongoing training. Although naturally timid, his leash manners have improved significantly, and he recently completed a long-distance walk! - Motion Sickness: He experiences car sickness and drools during rides. - Biting/Aggression: He has shown zero biting tendencies to date. - Barking: He can be a bit vocal. When his medication is prepared with his favorite canned food, he barks in excitement to ask for it quickly. He also barks at strangers or other dogs. - Likes: He loves treats and gentle pets! However, he does not care much for dried or dehydrated treats. - Dislikes: He is fearful of strangers, other dogs outdoors, and loud noises, so he is currently undergoing desensitization training during walks. Moving objects, noisy things, and new stimuli all frighten him. He also dislikes vet visits, kennels, and nail clippers. - Personality: Lira is a timid and quiet soul. He is so cautious that he only wanders around when he thinks he is alone, yet he remains full of quiet curiosity. He just needs a patient family who will wait calmly for him to open his heart at his own pace.

Story
Note: Currently, Jino is in Korea, but will be arriving in Vancouver once adopted. For more info about the dog or to submit an applicaiton, pleases click here.BackgroundJinu was one of six puppies born to a mother dog who was rescued from euthanasia. Jinu was an adorable puppy, but he was born with a congenital deformity in his left front leg. It is shorter than his other legs. Despite his difficult start in life, he has grown into a happy, playful, and affectionate dog. He currently lives at the shelter with his siblings and many other dogs.Personality and SocializationJinu is a very friendly, outgoing, and affectionate boy. He is great with strangers and is usually the very first dog to run over and greet new visitors with a wagging tail. He loves attention and happily leans in for pets and affection.He gets along well with both men and women and is comfortable around adult men. Jinu is very social with other dogs and spends every day playing with around twenty other dogs at the shelter. Sometimes, however, he can get a bit overwhelmed if larger or stronger dogs are too pushy. He would do best with gentle dogs in a peaceful environment rather than at a busy dog park.BehavioursJinu loves to run and play and moves around without any difficulty. He is quick, active, and enjoys exploring. He has not had many opportunities to ride in the car, but he handles car rides well. He also cooperates nicely during baths and veterinary exams. He walks well on leash and enjoys spending time outdoors. Jinu is both indoor and outdoor house trained.Since he has always lived with his littermates and other dogs, it is difficult to know whether he experiences separation anxiety when left completely alone. At the shelter, however, he sleeps by himself at night without any problems.Health and DietJinu is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, fully vaccinated, and receives monthly parasite prevention. He is healthy and ready to find his forever home. He eats regular dry kibble and has no known food allergies.Jinu was born with a shorter left front leg. This congenital condition does not require any special treatment. He walks, runs, and plays confidently without pain or limitations. The vet says regular exercise will help him build more muscle and make walking even easier. His unique little leg is simply part of what makes him special.Ideal HomeJinu would love a family looking for an affectionate and social companion. Someone who works from home or is retired and can spend plenty of time with him would be an ideal match. He thrives on human attention and will happily greet you every day with excitement and love. He could do well in a home with another gentle and friendly dog or as an only dog, provided he receives plenty of companionship, exercise, and enrichment.Jinu has overcome a difficult beginning and is now ready for the happy life he deserves. All he needs is a family who will see beyond his little leg and love him for the wonderful dog he is.Note: Currently, Jino is in Korea, but will be arriving in Vancouver once adopted.

Story
*Note: Currently, Arthur is in Korea but will be arriving in Vancover once adopted.For more info about him or about the adoption application, please click here.BackgroundArthur was found as a stray in a rural area of Paju, Korea, and was facing euthanasia before being rescued and brought to a shelter. He currently lives with other dogs at the shelter while waiting for his forever home.Personality and SocializationArthur is a gentle and friendly dog. He approaches new people without much hesitation and is comfortable being handled. He enjoys physical affection and will gently paw at you if he feels he is not getting enough attention.Around other dogs, Arthur does well and has been good with the dogs at the shelter. He enjoys the company of dogs who are friendly and respectful of his boundaries. If another dog is too hyper, pushy, or constantly in his face, he may growl to communicate discomfort, but he has never caused trouble or started fights. Arthur would do best with calm and well mannered dogs rather than young, overly energetic, or dominant dogs. He has no experiences with cats. BehavioursArthur does well on walks when the environment is calm. However, he can become nervous around busy roads or large crowds. He rides well in the car without any fuss. Vet visits and bathing go smoothly because he trusts people and follows their lead without resistance. He is comfortable staying in his kennel and keeps his space clean. If someone tries to grab him suddenly or handle him too roughly, he can become scared.Health and DietArthur is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and up to date on his vaccinations. He also receives monthly parasite prevention. In the summer of 2025, Arthur underwent surgery for gastric volvulus. He has fully recovered and is healthy. He does not require any medication or special diet, but it is recommended to avoid vigorous exercise right after meals.He eats standard dry kibble with no known food sensitivities and happily accepts treats.Ideal HomeArthus would be happiest with a family living a peaceful and quiet life in a residential suburban area rather than in a busy downtown city. He would do best with someone who enjoys a calm and relaxed lifestyle, can spend time with their dog, and enjoys daily walks together. Arthus does not ask for much. He is a gentle soul who will simply be happy being near his people and sharing a quiet life with them.
