Meet Duffy💛 💙 Name: Duffy 💙 Gender: Male 💙 Age: Estimated 1 year old (Born in September 2024) 💙 Weight: 13 kg / 28.66 lb 💙 Duffy's News Account: @duffy.thedoggie 1. Health Condition * Neutered. * Microchipped and heartworm negative. 2. Rescue Story * Duffy was staying at the Miryang City Shelter, where an Adogs staff member was volunteering. The shelter was already at capacity with stray animals, and the list of euthanasia was regularly being updated. Upon noticing that Duffy's name was on the list, Adogs couldn't delay the rescue any longer and decided to rescue him. 3. Basic Information * With People: Is very timid around strangers; instead of approaching first, he prefers to just sniff from a distance and tends to shy away from hands. However, he will come closer if there are treats! Once he becomes familiar with someone, he becomes less startled by their movement or sounds and even sleeps peacefully around them. Doesn’t avoid familiar people, but doesn’t approach them first and tends to spend his time independently. * With Dogs: Shows some curiosity to other dogs, but tends to spend time independently without playing with them. Plays with leaves by himself. Sometimes gets a little bullied by other dogs. * With Cats: Barks at them, so careful monitoring is needed. * Separation Anxiety: When his foster parent returns home, he comes out of the room to check on them and then spends his time independently. * Potty Training: Is pottying indoors. May have potty accidents when he gets startled. May need training if his environment changes. * Hygiene: If you approach him slowly in his kennel and touch him first and then his paw, he may gently pull his paws away, but allows his nails to be trimmed without any nipping or biting. Although he’s still nervous, he does well even with long brushing sessions. * Walks: Walking is still unfamiliar to him. Gets scared and tries to run away when you try to put on the leash, and he occasionally has potty accidents due to nervousness. Walks quickly or tries to hide due to fear, so he’s mainly being trained with walks indoors. When out for quick walks, he got startled when the leash wrapped around his legs or when hearing motorcycles. Needs time to adjust to new environments and noises. * Car Sickness: Got so nervous in the car that he had a potty accident. * Biting: Shows absolutely no signs of aggression and does not try to bite or growl. * Barking: Sometimes barks defensively. Tends to bark for a couple of minutes in the kennel but settles down quickly. It doesn’t seem due to separation anxiety. When moved to a new environment, he howls while settling in. It’s on the severe side at first, but it quickly becomes better as he adjusts. * Likes: Loves food and treats. Enjoys chewing on chew toys and playing with nosework toys. * Dislikes: Is especially fearful of strangers. Is scared of leashes and harnesses. * Personality: Is very independent and enjoys his alone time. Since the world is still scary for him, he tends to be cautious and timid. It is important to be patient with him until he feels comfortable enough to open up.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Odyssey — The Big, Goofy Malamute With an Even Bigger Heart If you love a dog with personality, presence, and a whole lot of charm, Odyssey is ready to win you over. This big, smiley Malamute is the definition of a gentle giant—affectionate, goofy, and absolutely devoted to the people he loves. Odyssey is known for his escape‑artist theatrics and his playful “catch me if you can” routine, but his oversized ears always give him away. He may try to act sneaky, but he’s far too endearing to pull it off. Because he’s clever and curious, he’ll need a secure 6‑foot fenced yard to keep his adventures safe and contained. What Odyssey loves most is attention. Leaning into you for affection, rolling over for belly rubs, and staring at you with the most loving (and sometimes hilariously awkward) gaze—these are his specialties. Despite his size, he’s a total sweetheart who just wants to be close to his people. Watch him run and you’ll see those big ears bounce in every direction, perfectly matching his joyful, slightly clumsy energy. Whether he’s joining you for a long walk or romping around the yard, Odyssey brings fun and enthusiasm to everything he does. Odyssey is the perfect match for a family who: Has a secure 6‑foot fenced yard Enjoys an energetic, playful companion Appreciates a dog who is both goofy and deeply affectionate Wants a larger‑than‑life personality who will always keep them smiling Life with Odyssey means laughter, love, and a whole lot of Malamute charm. If you’re looking for a big sweetie who will fill your days with joy, Odyssey is ready to be your new best friend.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 5, 2026, 5:01 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Keno — A Loyal, Snow‑Loving Malamute/Husky Looking for His Second Chance Keno is a striking 4‑year‑old Malamute/Husky mix with a big heart and an even bigger need for the right person to guide him forward. Sadly, his owner has passed away and Keno has been living with family.  Keno is searching for a new home where he can rebuild his sense of security and belonging. This boy has all the classic northern‑breed charm: he’s smart, energetic, outdoorsy, and full of personality. Although he’s been living mostly outside recently, Keno is housebroken and has a foundation of basic commands — sit, lay down, and even roll over. He walked beautifully on leash for his owner and shows that same potential with new handlers once he settles his excitement. What is Keno Like Dog‑friendly and social — Keno enjoys the company of friendly dogs of all sizes and reads canine body language well. He thrives around dogs who are calm and confident. Smart and capable — He already knows sit, lay down, and roll over, and he walked beautifully on leash for his owner. With someone patient and consistent, he’ll pick up new skills quickly. Housebroken — Even though he’s been living outdoors more recently, he remembers his manners indoors. Energetic and fun‑loving — Keno has that classic northern‑breed enthusiasm and loves being active, exploring, and engaging with his people. Independent but eager to bond — He may be a work in progress, but he genuinely wants to connect. Once he trusts you, he tries hard to listen and learn. A respectful wanderer — He doesn’t dig or climb fences, but he does like to roam if given the chance, so secure fencing helps him stay safe while enjoying his space. His Ideal Home Keno will thrive with adopters who understand the Malamute/Husky mindset: independent, intelligent, and deeply loyal once bonded. His perfect match is a home with: No young children No small pets A securely fenced yard Owners experienced with high‑energy working breeds Patience and commitment to training Keno is a dog with incredible potential. Underneath his rough edges is a devoted companion who just needs someone willing to meet him where he is and help him grow. If you’re looking for a challenge that comes with huge rewards — and you love the spirit of northern breeds — Keno may be the dog who changes your life.   Important - Please note.   This dog is being listed by WAMAL but is residing with its owner.
