Story
**🏠 Currently in a Vancouver foster home**
Hi, my name is Hugh 🤍 I’m a male Jindo mix, 1 year old, and I weigh about 10kg (22 lb). I’m still a puppy, and the world is a little unfamiliar to me.
I was rescued when I was very young and grew up living with other puppies. During my time at a foster home in Korea, I had some difficult experiences with young children who touched me too much and didn’t know when to stop.
Because of that, I’ve learned to be cautious about approaching people first. But that’s not the whole story of who I am.
At first, I may take a step back and quietly observe. But if you give me time and let us get to know each other, I’ll allow gentle touch, and eventually, I’ll choose to come closer on my own.
Once trust is built, I’ll look at my person with soft eyes, walk over quietly, and lean against them for comfort.
I’m very social with other dogs. I get along well with dogs my age and feel calm and secure when I’m around them.
With unfamiliar people or new environments, I just need a little more time to adjust. During that time, I ask that you respect my pace and watch over me with patience and consistent love.
I’m still only 1 year old. Before my past worries become permanent, with enough time and bonding with my person, my current cautiousness can fade away.
I have so much potential to grow into a loving, affectionate, and gentle companion. I’m careful because I was hurt, but that also means I’m truly ready to learn what love is.
What I need isn’t special training or advanced skills— just someone who can say, “It’s okay. Take your time.”
I’m waiting for someone who will walk beside me through that time, until my heart feels safe enough to fully open.
My past may have been painful, but my future can be warm— with you 🤍🐾
