Story
Pink's basic bio is below, but we maintain more detailed information about each of our animals on our website, which is also always up to date with animals removed immediately once they are adopted. Please visit Pink's page on our site (https://www.muddypawsrescue.org/adoptable?dog=008700) to learn even more about Pink! Additionally, please note that the breed listed for Pink is just our best guess based on the dog's physical features. We cannot make any guarantees about the accuracy of our guesses. PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO VOLUME, WE ARE GENERALLY UNABLE TO RESPOND TO INQUIRIES MADE USING THE 'ASK ABOUT ME' BUTTON. Please reach out to us directly using the contact information on our website: www.muddypawsrescue.org. Say hello to Pink! She'll greet you with a smile all day and is the sweetest girl once she warms up. She may be small, but she is mighty. She absolutely loves snuggling into you, fluffy blankets, scratches, and beef liver treats. Toys don't seem to interest her, but she does get the zoomies for a few seconds each day. She's a bit of a diva and loves being inside sleeping all curled up on or under a blanket, but she does like to get out and walk around the city. She's waiting for the perfect person to give her time to adjust and instill confidence in her. She does prefer to pee on pee pads and poop outside, but we're working on having both be an outdoor thing. Could Pink be the perfect girl for you? We think so!

Story
No need to go deep sea diving to find this Pearl, a gem of an 11-year-old, 12 lb Maltese mix. She has been great around other dogs and gets very excited to play, especially if there’s a ball involved. Despite being a senior dog, Pearl is usually the one to initiate play with her younger, larger foster sibling. She’s a big fan of belly rubs and will roll over for them as soon as you start petting her. And while she does love a good belly rub, she is also very independent and is totally happy relaxing on her own. Even though she's new to the city, Pearl’s already crate trained and enjoying the sites. You’re going to strike gold with this Pearl! Approved adopters interested in Pearl can email adopt@hbrdogs.com for more info. If you’re not approved yet, apply today at hbrdogs.com.

Story
Sapphire came to our family 6 years ago as a puppy, with nickname of Mr Burn given by his breeder, as he has cute overbite. He has been giving me and my wife lots of joy and fun. However, as both my parents and in-laws have fear of dogs, their visit to us become a bit drama, and my wife and I have intense job that we sometimes can't afford to take dogs out to let them have fun. I am looking to put him and Charlie (the brown, 1.5-year poodle showing in picture) to good hands who love and care dogs. BTW, both of them love outdoor very much. If you can do it, that will be great!

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK&EWR💟 Meet Somsom☁☁ Somsom was rescued with her mother #AdogsDasom at a shelter in Andong, Gyeongsangbuk-do after the mountain fire. She stayed in a temporary shelter afterward. However, the chief of the shelter was in need of treatment of burns due to the fire, which makes her to lose the place to go. Therefore, Adogs urgently rescued her. * With People: Is a little shy and scared for strangers. Gets more startled especially at young children with big reactions. Is getting less alert and less shy with socialization training with the foster family. Is such a total cutie for familiar people that she keeps exposing her belly and asking for petting. * With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs, not fighting with them. Does not tend to play energetically but is a pacifist. Does not respond and ignores other dogs who tease or bark at her. Just growls them as a warning signal. Has a wonderful personality and got along well with the dogs at the center. * Separation Anxiety: Tries to find people when there are no one. When left alone, howls but only a few times. Training to fix the separation anxiety is necessary when the environment changes after adoption. It would be better to do it constantly! * Potty Training: Does potty indoors and uses pads accurately! Is very cautious and does potty outdoors only when it is quiet and comfortable. * Hygiene: Is a gentle dog who takes bath, toenail trimming, brushing, and ear cleaning nicely. Is so timid and sensitive to sound that she is a little afraid of dryers. * Walk: Is getting training after her interest in walking developed to a little pulling on the leash. Smells during the walk, but does not chase after other animals, like cats or birds. * Car Sickness: Waits in a car quietly without car sickness while traveling. ❗Health Condition❗ * Spayed: Yes. * Others: Microchipped, hernia surgery done, and is getting anaplasma treatment. * Had surgery on the left leg with a stage 3 diagnosis of dislocation of the patella. Care is needed to prevent her from excercising excessively after the surgery. Forster IG : @mongmong_friends

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.
