Rescue Story
Daram first entered the city shelter in July 2023 without his mother. He spent about a year living in the shelter before being rescued in June 2024 and moved to the AKR center.
She was suffering from a skin condition and was quite timid, so he was not ready for adoption right away. In October 2025, he moved to a foster home where he spent about five months receiving treatment for his skin and working on socialization, including learning to enjoy walks.
Daram has a patch of missing fur in the middle of her back. It is believed that the area was shaved at the shelter to check a wound, and the fur unfortunately did not grow back.
Socialization with People
Daram can be a little shy with new people at first. He will take treats and slowly warms up, but usually only allows petting after she has had time to get to know someone.
With her foster mom, whom she has lived with for about five months, she happily runs over when called and shows lots of affection. She is a dog who needs a little time to build trust, but once she bonds with someone, she becomes incredibly loving and devoted.
She is comfortable being gently lifted by placing an arm under her belly, and when she feels safe with someone, she will even show his belly.
Socialization with Other Dogs
Daram will greet unfamiliar dogs politely but usually does not play with them. However, when she meets a dog he likes, she becomes very happy, wags his tail, and follows them around.
She tends to feel uncomfortable around high-energy dogs but is a true peacekeeper — even if another dog tries to provoke her, she simply avoids conflict.
She relies quite a bit on other dogs for comfort, and having another calm dog in the home can help her relax much more quickly in new environments.
With Cats
During walks, she may look at cats out of curiosity, but she calmly follows her handler when guided away.
Energy Level
Daram has a very low energy level indoors and loves to rest quietly — she spends most of his time relaxing and sleeping.
When she goes outside, she becomes a bit more cheerful and interested in her surroundings, but even then she moves at a gentle pace. She is a very relaxed and easygoing dog.
Walks
Daram has plenty of walking experience and walks well on leash without pulling. She enjoys quiet areas and follows her person nicely.
However, very busy roads with heavy traffic can sometimes make her nervous, so her foster usually takes her to calmer places for walks.
Other Notes
• No food guarding toward people or other dogs
• No separation anxiety — she stays home alone very well
• Rarely barks
• Currently does outdoor potty
• Car rides are still a little scary for her and she may drool due to motion sickness. Using a non-slip mat seems to help.
If you’re looking for a gentle, quiet companion who forms deep bonds with her people, Daram may be the perfect match.
She simply needs a little patience at first — and once she trusts you, she will love you with her whole heart.
