Say hello, and he’s already leaning into your hand for pets, like you’re old friends.Quick Facts: Breed: Mix · Sex: Male · Born: November 2025 · Weight: 11.6 kg · Location: Korea · Traits: Affectionate, sociable, moderate energy · Health: Neutered, vaccinatedBackground: Pippi was rescued this summer from a dog meat farm in Icheon, Korea. Since then he has been living with other dogs at our partner boarding house, where he has settled in well and is now ready to find his forever family.Personality: Pippi is an affectionate boy who loves being around people and never holds back showing it. He has no shyness around new faces, men, women, or children, he just wants to be close to whoever is nearby. His energy runs at a comfortable, moderate pace, up for a good walk or a play session, but just as happy to settle in beside you afterward. He has no unusual barking habits.Compatibility: Pippi treats everyone the same. Men, women, children, it makes no difference to him, he warms up quickly.Pippi generally gets along well with other dogs, especially calm, well-mannered ones he can relax around. He’s less patient with dogs that get loud or hyper in his space. Because of this, he would do best as the only dog in the home, or paired with a dog who is friendly, well mannered and not dominant.Pippi hasn’t lived with cats before, so we can’t say for certain how he’d do.Behaviours & Training: Pippi rides well in the car, behaves well at the vet, and does well at bath time. He’s still learning polished leash manners on walks, but he’s coming along nicely. He has no chewing habits to worry about. As a young dog, he hasn’t yet had many chances to prove himself on separation anxiety, but he has shown no signs of it so far.Health & Diet: Pippi is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and up to date on all his vaccinations. He takes a monthly parasite preventative. He has had no surgeries beyond his neuter. He has no known allergies and eats dry food twice a day.Ideal Home: Pippi would do best with someone who works from home or is retired, so he isn’t left alone for long stretches and has company throughout the day. As a young dog still new to the world, he’ll thrive with a patient adopter who can guide him gently through new experiences as he grows. An only-dog household suits him best, though a calm, dignified resident dog could also work well.Pippi is a boy who wears his heart on his sleeve, always ready to lean in for a pet and make a new friend. Whoever adopts him will be getting a dog who greets every day, and every person in it, with open affection.
