Story
**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
Nigiri is a sweet senior Maltese boy who is searching for a soft place to land and a heart to call home. With his snowy white coat and gentle soul, Nigiri embodies everything special about senior dogs—quiet loyalty, deep gratitude, and love that feels calm and unconditional.   Nigiri doesn’t need long walks or constant activity. What he treasures most is companionship. He loves curling up beside his person, resting peacefully, and simply being near. Nigiri is house trained and good with other dogs - in fact, he must go to a home with at least one other dog as we feel that he would struggle as an only dog. Although he is looking for his forever person who wants a quiet, loving companion, we have also discovered that he is good with children. When Nigiri looks at you, it’s as if he’s saying thank you—for your time, your kindness, and your love.   Nigiri would do best in a calm, loving home where he can enjoy his golden years surrounded by patience and affection. Senior dogs like Nigiri are often overlooked, but they have a way of changing your life in the quietest, most meaningful ways.   Nigiri just had a badly needed dental and he now has no teeth which means he should be on a soft food diet. He is also diabetic and will require daily insulin injections as well as glucose monitoring. But he is such a sweet and jaunty little fellow. He is ready to give all the love he has left—he just needs someone to give him a chance.   If you’re looking for a loyal companion and a truly special soul, Nigiri is waiting.   Age: 10 years Weight: 12 pounds Breed: Maltese mix Ideal Home: Quiet, loving, low-energy Temperament: Gentle, affectionate, calm   Interested in adopting Nigiri? Please submit an adoption application asking for Nigiri TX at www.northstarpets.org!  March 12, 2026, 1:12 pm
