Story
Milo is energetic, but also very calm. Until his behavioral issues started to appear, he was very cuddly and loved to snuggle! If you choose to adopt Milo, I am in contact with a behaviorist and a trainer for free! I am not able to have Milo trained because of the time limit I am given to get him rehomed and adopted, but that contact information will be shared with new owners. He is very friendly with other dogs once he warms up to them. He is very anxious and fearful when it comes to human touch because of a traumatic past. In defense, Milo does react with aggression, but with a behaviorist and trainer on call, that can be fixed!

Story
** Current location: in a foster home in South Korea ** Meet Lulu👋 In April 2025, a group of small dogs—likely victims of an illegal breeding operation—were found abandoned together on the streets of South Korea. Lulu was one of them. Her sagging nipples hinted at the harsh life she had endured, likely used repeatedly for breeding. Lulu is ready to leave her difficult past behind and finally enjoy life as a cherished member of a loving family. She’s looking for a forever home where she’ll be cared for and loved the way she deserves. • Personality: Gentle, Calm, Sweet Lulu doesn’t seem to have received much love from humans in the past. She doesn’t actively seek out attention or affection from volunteers, but she’s such a sweet and gentle little girl. We believe that with time and patience, once she learns how to interact and bond with people, her true personality will shine—just like any beloved family dog. • Affinity with - Dogs: Gentle around other dogs - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: Good with adults / Not tested with kids, but we assume she would be good with all gentle people! • Walking Manners: In training—she gets quite nervous on a leash due to a lack of walking experience but also seems curious about the outdoors. With consistent practice, she’s likely to improve over time. • Housetrained: Will need housetraining in a new environment • Bathing/Brushing: Very good and calm • Car Sickness: Comfortable with car rides • Separation Anxiety: None • Barks/Howls: Almost none. • Appetite/Food Allergies: No food allergies found so far • Shedding level (1~10): 2-3 • Likes/Dislikes: She likes getting pets! / Not used to being lifted suddenly • Health: When rescued, Lulu was weak and suffering from hematuria caused by a bladder stone, which required immediate surgery. Thankfully, she has made a full recovery! However, she will need a bit of ongoing special care, such as a urinary health diet and limited calcium intake.

Story
Meet Wooju — A Tiny Soul with a Huge Heart 🐶 4 years old | Neutered Male | Maltese | 7.3 lbs From a heartbreaking past to a hopeful future — Wooju is ready to find the forever family he’s always deserved. This little 7.3 lb Maltese was born into hardship. In a small town in Korea, he spent his early years as a breeding dog at a pet shop, and once he was no longer “useful,” he was passed on to a dog grooming school, where he was used for grooming practice and endured repeated abuse. Thankfully, a compassionate student reported his condition, and Wooju was rescued by a local animal welfare group. After receiving care and recovering from his past, he made his way to the U.S. and is now being fostered in a loving home in New Jersey. Despite everything he’s been through, Wooju is incredibly sweet, bright, and affectionate. He loves all people and never hesitates to show his adorable side. He gets along well with other dogs, has no known issues with kids, and is fully pee pad trained while also doing well with outdoor potty breaks. He hasn’t met cats yet, but his gentle nature suggests he may adjust well with a proper introduction. Wooju may be small in size, but his capacity for love is enormous. After years of being used and neglected, he’s finally ready to be loved — not for what he can provide, but for who he is. If you're ready to show him what forever feels like, Wooju is ready to give you all his heart. 💛

Story
Meet Bebe!! Bebe was rescued from illegal puppy mill by Dorothy Rescue(ADOGS's partner rescue) Behaviours from foster home : Bebe is a very loving and affectionate boy who longs to be cherished by his family. While he may be shy at first, given some time, he will bloom like a sunflower! He gets along well with other dogs and is very gentle with them. Although he hasn't had a chance to meet any cat friends yet, his foster mom believes he would also be gentle with them. When meeting strangers, he can be a bit timid initially. He’s not aggressive; he just needs some time to adjust to new family members and environments. Please be patient as he becomes more comfortable with you! :) Although he’s a little apprehensive about bathing, he manages well and enjoys being brushed. He has excellent grooming habits and good walking manners. He is pee-pad trained with an 80% success rate and is making progress! Bebe is not a big barker and is a very calm boy. He may experience a bit of separation anxiety, but he only howls for about 3 to 5 minutes before settling down. While he isn’t a fan of being in a crate, he remains calm when asked to stay there. Though he may be a bit shy at first, Bebe is such a sweet, calm, and affectionate boy who loves to be cuddled by his family. Would you be his loving pawrents who will spoil him with affection? Allergy/health issues : He hasn’t shown any allergic reactions and behaves well at the vet. He is a healthy, perfect, and loving boy! *Please send all inquiries to @everlove8282. *Please submit your applications through the application form on our Instagram profile! Our team will carefully consider each of your applications to find the perfect forever homes for our dogs. *As all of our dogs are currently in South Korea, there will be an adoption fee of 700USD + customs fee (if applicable) for each dog.
