Story
Meet Bailey and Charlie! They are both Maltese/Yorkie mixes; Bailey (the lighter colored one) is a female around age 16, and Charlie (the darker colored one) is a male around age 12-13. These two senior pups came to Husky House when their elderly owner unfortunately passed away. Bailey and Charlie are sweet, affectionate dogs who love to be pet, held, and sit in your lap. They are good with people and other dogs; they have never been cat tested, but would likely also do well with cats. Please help these sweet seniors live out their golden years in a loving home!

Story
Theodore was born June 6th, 2021 as the runt of the litter. I have had him since he was born. His mom is a Maltese dachshund mix and his dad a Maltese yorkie mix. Theodore is very very friendly. He has never bitten anybody in his life but he loves to nibble and play with anyone big or small. He has a lot of energy and requires daily stimulation and cuddles. He can stay in a gate if need be for short periods of time although he does not like it. Especially if there are guests in the house because he wants to play and be involved. He knows a few basic command like sit, leave it, spin. He answers to Theo, Theodore and Bear. He is overall a lovely companion and a very special boy. He just needs a lot of attention, not for a family that is always gone.

**Important Adoption Information All of our dogs are currently living in private shelters or foster homes in South Korea. Once an adoption is approved, dogs will travel to the United States through legal and approved international transport procedures. Video calls are available prior to adoption, and adopters can communicate with our rescue team in real time through our official organization and app-based messaging channels throughout the process. ----------- • Rescue Story: Meet Tonki👋 In April 2025, a group of small dogs—believed to be victims of an illegal breeding operation—were found abandoned together on the streets of South Korea. Tonki was one of them. Now, he’s ready to leave his difficult past behind and begin a new chapter as a beloved member of a loving family. Having learned how to live happily with humans in his foster home, Tonki is patiently waiting for his forever home—where he’ll be cherished, protected, and loved the way he truly deserves. • Personality: Sweet, Friendly, Bright Tonki is a lovable, easygoing pup with a bright, happy energy. He’s incredibly affectionate and loves showing his humans just how much love he has to give! While he may need a little extra time to warm up to adult men, once he does, he becomes a loyal and devoted furry companion. • Affinity with - Dogs: Wonderful with other dogs! He’d do great as an only dog or as a second dog. - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: Good with people, including kids / Needs a bit more time to warm up to adult men. • House Training: Fully housebroken - using pee pads indoors and going potty outside. • Walking Manners: Super gentle on leash and loves going for walks! • Bathing/Brushing: Tolerates both well. • Separation Anxiety: May howl briefly when first left alone, but once he settled, he relaxes and rests peacefully by himself. • Barks/Howls: Occasional barking when a male family member approaches suddenly. • Car Rides: Comfortable and calm • Appetite/Food Allergies: Big eater! / No food allergies found so far. • Likes/Dislikes: Likes to play with toys that make noise. / Not a fan of being lifted suddenly by a male family member • Shedding level (1~10): 1-2 • Health: Currently a healthy pup! He tested positive for heartworm when rescued, completed treatment successfully, and tested negative in Dec 2025. ----------- **Adoption Fee Information The adoption fee already includes all major expenses, such as: International transportation, Customs and export documentation, Medical care (spay surgery, vaccinations, health certificate, deworming, etc.) For this reason, we kindly ask that you refrain from requesting a breakdown or negotiation of the adoption fee. Your support directly helps us continue rescuing and caring for dogs in need, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding.

Story
Disposition: A kind, gentle dog who gets along well with other dogs. She doesn’t bite and generally enjoys companionship, though she tends to prefer attention on her own terms. Personality:Affectionate and loyal. She loves when she’s the center of attention, but she’s not demanding and can be content with quiet, close bonding. House training: Trained to go outside to pee. If she’s not able to go outside (or if certain situations arise), she will use her pee pad. Ideal home: A loving family or person who appreciates a calm, affectionate dog and can provide consistent attention. She would thrive in a home where she can be part of the family without too much competition for your attention. Compatibility:Good with other dogs, has shown no signs of aggression. Likely to do well in homes with respectful, gentle pets. Background: Originally adopted a couple of months ago. Her current family became unable to care for dogs due to pregnancy and a newborn, but she deserves a loving, 4everhom
