Story
Meet Angdo A little girl who would rather be close to you than anywhere else.   2 years old | Spayed female Maltese / Shih Tzu mix 3.6 kg (7.9 lb) | 30 cm tall Gray & white   Her rescue story Angdo was rescued alongside Homil from a hoarding home where 56 dogs were living in a small, overcrowded space. Without proper care, the dogs had endured unsanitary conditions, surrounded by waste and a strong smell. AKR rescued five dogs from the home, helping them begin a new chapter with grooming, veterinary care, and a safe place to rest.   Now in foster care, Angdo is showing just how much she loves people.   A friend to everyone Angdo happily approaches familiar faces and strangers alike, rubbing against them and leaning in for affection. She approaches men, too, offering her little head for pets. She is comfortable being picked up with support under her body and will even show her belly to someone she has just met.   Dogs & cats Angdo greets unfamiliar dogs but usually prefers people to canine playmates. She is more comfortable with dogs her size or smaller and can find high-energy dogs overwhelming. A calm companion who respects her space would suit her better than an enthusiastic playmate.   She is currently sharing her foster home with cats.   Little walks, little discoveries Bring out her harness, and Angdo comes running! She slips her head in and heads straight for the door, ready to go.   On walks, she enjoys taking in the world, sometimes pausing for a few seconds to watch passing people or dogs. Fallen leaves are her favourite bathroom spot. With around four walks a day in her foster home, she is now doing her business outdoors rather than inside.   Calm company Angdo has a low energy level and loves resting quietly. She settles calmly in a kennel, and her foster family has yet to hear her bark!   She has shown no signs of separation anxiety in her current foster home and usually sleeps when people are out. However, other dogs and cats are still there with her, so her response to being completely alone in a new home may be different.   Mealtimes Angdo does not guard food from people or other dogs. In fact, she has a small appetite and can be a selective eater. A sprinkle of dried chicken breast over her kibble has helped her eat better, although she sometimes leaves a little behind.   Angdo is looking for a gentle family who will enjoy her quiet company, take her on little sniffing adventures, and give her all the affection she so happily asks for.

Story
Meet Raon!   2 years old | Female | Spayed Maltese/Poodle Mix 4.8 kg | 34 cm at the shoulder Tan   Raon was found wandering around a factory, where she had been left and was in danger. Now, this affectionate little girl is looking for a safe, loving home to call her own.   Raon loves people and happily approaches both familiar faces and new friends for attention. She’ll rub against you and enjoys being petted. She also lived well with a middle-school-aged child and got along well. She is comfortable being picked up.   She’s just as friendly with other dogs and likes to say hello and invite them to play! Raon is most comfortable with dogs around her own size, as large dogs can be a little scary for her.   When she sees cats on walks, she watches them with curiosity but will follow along when guided away. A cat test can be arranged if needed.   Raon has a moderate energy level. She enjoys outdoor activities and walks, and she’s happy to relax afterward. She can pull on the leash, but generally follows her person well.   When Raon first arrived in her current foster home, she was understandably anxious in the unfamiliar environment. For the first few days, she had trouble sleeping, barked and wandered around, and sometimes howled when her caregiver left. It took her about a week to settle in. Now that she feels more comfortable, she doesn’t bark unnecessarily, although she may bark when she hears noises outside.   Raon doesn’t guard her food from people or other dogs. She currently uses both indoor pee pads and goes potty outside. She may whine in a kennel and is working on becoming more comfortable with it.   Raon will need a patient family who understands that she may need time to feel safe and settle into a new home. Once she feels comfortable, her sweet and affectionate personality shines through! Apply to adopt or foster: https://adoptmekr.org  PLEASE ALSO VISIT OUR FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM!

Story
Meet Homil!   Age: 6 years Sex: Neutered male Breed: Maltese Colour: Cream Weight: 6.2 kg Height: 33 cm at the shoulder   Rescue Story Homil was rescued from an animal-hoarding situation where many dogs were living together without adequate care. Now safe and cared for, Homil is ready to find a loving forever family.   With People Homil is a friendly, affectionate boy who enjoys meeting people—even strangers! He approaches them, rubs against them, and happily accepts pets. He is comfortable being picked up and held and may even show his belly to someone he has just met.   With Other Dogs Homil prefers human company to playing with other dogs. He is generally friendly with dogs his size or smaller and is patient even when they pester him.   With Cats His reaction to cats has not yet been observed. A cat test can be arranged.   Energy & Walks Homil has a moderate energy level. He enjoys outdoor activities and settles down quietly afterward. He has plenty of walking experience, follows his person well, and walks without pulling on the leash.   Life at Home • He has not shown food guarding toward people or other dogs. • He may bark when separated from people. His family should be prepared for possible separation anxiety and help him gradually become comfortable spending time alone. • In a kennel, he alternates between being quiet and vocalizing. He will need patience and support rather than an expectation that he is already crate trained. • He currently uses both indoor and outdoor potty areas. His family should expect an adjustment period and possible accidents in a new home.   Homil is looking for a family who will enjoy his affectionate nature and patiently support him as he settles into his new life.

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Cheonjin Age: About 3 Years Old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Maltipoo Color: White Weight: 9kg / 19.8lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from a city shelter after being placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, rescuers stepped in and brought me to safety, giving me a second chance and the opportunity to begin again. Now, I’m looking forward to a brighter chapter filled with love, companionship, and a forever family of my own.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Cheonjin! I’m an irresistibly cute little dog with a wonderfully chunky build, a big face, oversized paws, and surprisingly short legs. Put it all together and I have the kind of proportions that make people stop and smile. I’m currently sporting a shorter haircut, but my coat looks like it will grow in much fuller and fluffier—I’m going to become even more handsome once it does. My personality is every bit as lovable as my appearance. I’m sweet and affectionate with people, friendly with other dogs, and naturally easygoing. I enjoy affection and have plenty of charm, but my overall energy is comfortable and well-balanced. I’m the kind of dog my rescuers describe as genuinely easy to care for: gentle, stable, adaptable, and happy to go along with everyday life. There is one thing about me that definitely isn’t small: my voice! I’m a bit of a talker, and thanks to my broad chest, I can produce a surprisingly impressive bark for my compact body. If the other dogs start barking, I may join the conversation. If I spot something interesting outside, I may announce it. And if there’s something I particularly want, I’m not above using my voice to make my opinion known. The funny part is that I usually have a lot to say—but not necessarily for very long. Rather than barking endlessly, I’m more likely to deliver a decisive little announcement and then move on with my day. I have the big paws, short legs, fluffy potential, affectionate personality, and booming little voice to make me memorable—but underneath all that cuteness is simply a very good-natured, easygoing dog. I’d love a family who appreciates a companion with a little personality and a lot of sweetness, because I’m more than ready to bring both into my forever home.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m naturally friendly and affectionate with people, and I’m happy to approach both familiar faces and new people for attention. I enjoy leaning in for affection and am comfortable being petted—even with someone I’ve just met, I may happily roll over and show my belly! I’m also comfortable being gently picked up with an arm supporting me under my belly. I haven’t had experience with children under 13 yet, so my comfort level with younger kids is still unknown. · With Dogs: I’m friendly and social with other dogs, and I enjoy approaching both familiar and new dogs to say hello and invite them to play. I tend to be easygoing in my interactions, and if another dog tries to provoke me, I usually choose to move away and avoid conflict. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level – I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m also happy to settle down and relax afterward. I have plenty of walking experience and good leash manners, following my person well without pulling.   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs I’m calm and settled when I’m in a kennel. I may bark when I see someone unfamiliar or use a little demand barking when there’s something I want, but with consistent guidance and positive training, I can continue learning calmer ways to communicate and respond to new people. I’m comfortable using both indoor pee pads and going potty outdoors. When I first arrive in a new environment, I may mark as I get familiar with my surroundings, but with time, a consistent routine, and regular potty breaks, I can become more comfortable and settled in my new space.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together A family that will love and cherish me forever   SPECIAL NOTES When I first arrive in a new environment, I may mark as I get familiar with my surroundings. With time, a consistent routine, and regular potty breaks, I can become more comfortable and settled in my new space.    CHEONJIN'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2838977##

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Sta Age: About 5 Years Old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Maltese Color: White Weight: 5kg / 11lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from an illegal breeding facility, where my life had been shaped by circumstances beyond my control. Thankfully, rescuers stepped in and brought me to safety, giving me a second chance to experience kindness, comfort, and proper care. Now, I’m looking forward to leaving that chapter behind and beginning a brighter future as a cherished companion in a loving forever family.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Sta! I’m a sweet, people-oriented little dog with a gentle personality and a past that makes my rescuers wish they could give me the whole world. I came from a breeding facility, where I appear to have been used as a breeding dog. Despite that experience, I’m remarkably comfortable around people and seem genuinely excited about the opportunity to become someone’s companion. I’m naturally friendly and approachable, even with people I’ve never met before. I happily follow my favorite humans around to see what they’re doing. One of my sweetest habits is how peacefully I settle when someone picks me up. Rather than squirming or trying to get away, I relax into their arms as though being held is exactly where I want to be. I’m currently sporting a short haircut, but my appearance will become even more charming once my coat grows longer. For now, I have a simple, endearing look that suits my gentle personality, and I’m looking forward to showing off my fluffier side in the future! I’d do well with a family who appreciates a friendly, gentle companion and is willing to invest some patience in my training. I already have a wonderful foundation when it comes to connecting with people, and now I’m ready to learn the everyday skills that come with being part of a family. After spending so much of my life in a breeding facility, I’m hoping my next chapter will be filled with new experiences, comfortable routines, and the simple happiness of finally having a home of my own.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m naturally friendly and affectionate with people, and I happily approach both familiar faces and new people to say hello and ask for attention. I love leaning in for affection and am comfortable being petted, even by someone I’ve just met. I’m so open and trusting that I may even roll over and show my belly to a complete stranger! I’m also comfortable being gently picked up with an arm supporting me under my belly. I haven’t had experience with children under 13 yet, so my comfort level with younger kids is still unknown. · With Dogs: I’m comfortable approaching unfamiliar dogs to say hello, but I generally prefer a friendly greeting rather than engaging in play. I don’t show much interest in interacting with other dogs beyond a quick hello and am usually content doing my own thing around them. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level – I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m also happy to settle down and relax afterward. I’m still working on my leash skills and getting used to going on walks. With continued practice, patience, and consistent guidance, I can gradually become more comfortable and confident on my walks.   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs. I may whine when I’m in a kennel, but with continued positive kennel training, patience, and a consistent routine, I can gradually learn to feel more comfortable and settle on my own. I’m comfortable using both indoor pee pads and going potty outdoors. When I first arrive in a new environment, I may mark as I get familiar with my surroundings. With time, a consistent routine, and regular potty breaks, I can become more comfortable and settled in my new space.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can relax, feel secure, and be myself in a stable environment A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together A family that will love and cherish me forever   SPECIAL NOTES One important thing my future family should know is that I currently mark quite frequently indoors. This is a habit that will require consistent training and management as I transition into a home. A predictable potty routine, close supervision, and positive reinforcement will help me understand appropriate bathroom habits.    STA'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2864158##
