Story
Meet Pink! She is the sweetest most adorable girll! She is a 6 month old that was rescued from 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.  Pink and some of her 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 November 20, 2025, 11:49 am

Wandoo

Jindo Shiba Inu

Male, 1 yr 2 mos
LA, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
**Wandoo is currently in LA waiting for his forever family. Background Wandoo and his brother were rescued this spring from a city pound in Milyang, Korea as part of our Save 100 Dogs campaign. They lived with other dogs at our boarding house. In November, Wandoo was adopted by a loving family in LA. Sadly, his adopter developed a severe dog allergy, so through no fault of his own, Wandoo had to be relocated. The last few weeks have been hard for him. He traveled across the world, was separated from his brother and friends, and then had to move homes again. Currently, Wandoo is living in a foster home in LA while he waits for his forever home. Personality and Socialization Wandoo is a gentle and sweet boy with a very loving heart. He has a medium energy level and gets along beautifully with other dogs. He would be happiest in a home with another friendly dog to play with and cuddle beside. At his current foster home, he spends long hours alone, and it has been a lot for his sensitive heart. Because of this, he can seem cautious and nervous at first. When he meets new people, he is curious but shy. He likes to take a little time to feel safe. Once he trusts you, his true personality shines through and he becomes affectionate, playful, and very loving. Behaviour Wandoo is a smart and friendly boy. He can feel a little nervous during car rides, bath time, or grooming, but he stays patient and allows his people to care for him. He is learning to walk on leash. When he sees his harness, he sometimes runs to his crate and hides, but eventually allows it to be put on. Once outside, he enjoys his walks. Sometimes he gets curious and wants to stop and explore, but overall he follows his person well. He loves toys, especially squeaky ones, and is happiest when he feels safe and loved. He has been left alone for long hours in an apartment and has been quiet. If needed, he has used puppy pads, but lately he prefers going potty outside. He may bark briefly at unfamiliar noises or when someone walks by the apartment, but he settles quickly. Even though he is quiet and independent, he is lonely and needs companionship, both human and canine. Health and Diet Wandoo is in good health. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and receives monthly parasite prevention. He eats dry kibble and has no known allergies or special dietary needs. Ideal Home Wandoo is a sweet, smart, and loyal boy who is still adjusting to a new country and many changes. He needs a patient and confident family, preferably with dog experience, who can help him feel safe and understood. We would prefer a family who does not leave their dog alone for long hours. Although Wandoo has been incredibly well behaved and has caused no trouble when left alone, this little boy is likely feeling lonely. We dream of a home where his family can be around him often, helping him build confidence, and trust. Wandoo does not need perfection. He just needs someone to give him a chance, and in return he will give you his whole heart. ----------------------- For more info about Wandoo or the adoption application, please follow the link below. https://www.freekoreandogs.org/dog/wandoo/
