She’s happy, silly & finally getting to enjoy life without a painful mouth. ❤️Before her dental, Popcorn had broken teeth & a gum infection, so we believe she had been living with quite a bit of pain. Because of that, she could be nippy when anyone touched around her face. She still is cautious around her face especially with grooming.Since having her painful teeth removed & her mouth cleaned up, her foster mom says she’s been completely fine with her face being touched. However, we want her future family to know her history because she may need a little time to build that same trust with new people.Because of this, we think older, respectful kids would be the best fit.Living without pain is still new for this sweet girl. Now she just needs a family to show her how good life is supposed to be. 🥹🍿❤️Who’s ready to give Miss Popcorn her happily ever after? 🏡Located Hamilton Ontario Adoption fee: $675If interested in adopting Popcorn, please submit an application from our website www.furwarriors.com please note… we will not consider any homes without an application.

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
Meet Byeori A playful little pup learning that the world can be a kind place.   Age: 7 months Sex: Neutered male Breed: Maltese–Shih Tzu mix Colour: Gray and white Weight: 4.4 kg Shoulder height: 32 cm   Rescued from a hoarding home, Byeori is now discovering the joys of friendship, outdoor adventures, and gentle affection.   With people Byeori can be shy at first, but treats help him make friends! He warms up fairly quickly to women and soon allows gentle petting. He is more cautious around men, although he will accept their treats and needs more time before feeling comfortable being touched.   Once he trusts you, he can be picked up with support under his body and may even roll over to show you his belly.   With other dogs Byeori is sociable and likes approaching both familiar and new dogs to say hello and invite them to play. He enjoys friendly dogs whose play style suits him.   He is comfortable with the larger dogs he lives with, but unfamiliar large dogs and very energetic dogs can feel overwhelming.   With cats Byeori has not met cats yet. He tries to chase birds outdoors, so his compatibility with cats is unknown.   Energy and walks Byeori has a moderate energy level and enjoys outdoor activities, followed by quiet rest. Being a puppy, though, he recharges quickly and is soon ready for something fun to do again!   He walks well in quiet areas. When a scent catches his attention, he likes taking his time to investigate and may hesitate briefly before moving on. Busy roads still make him nervous, and he sometimes turns in circles when unsure, but he is gradually improving.   Life at home • He has shown no food guarding toward people or other dogs. • He uses pee pads and also toilets outdoors, although potty breaks during walks are still a work in progress. • He usually uses his pads reliably, with occasional accidents, especially on rugs. Sometimes he gets so busy playing in the yard that he comes back inside and uses a pad! • Car rides can make him tremble at first, but he tends to settle with reassurance or the company of familiar dogs. • He enjoys watching people outside and occasionally barks at them.   Byeori feels comfortable with other dogs and has not shown separation anxiety in his current setting. However, he has never been completely alone, so learning to stay home by himself would be a new experience. If adopted as an only dog, he may need extra support and gradual practice with alone time.   Byeori is looking for a patient family who will let him build trust at his own pace and guide him through puppyhood with gentle, consistent training. A compatible canine friend could help him feel at home. Apply to adopt or foster: https://adoptmekr.org  PLEASE ALSO VISIT OUR FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM!

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Ppogeuri Age: 10 months old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Maltipoo Color: White Weight: 7 kg / 15.4 lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY Hi, I'm Ppogeuri! I'm an adorable 10-month-old Maltipoo with the fluffiest white fur, an irresistibly cute face, and a personality that seems to find happiness in absolutely everything. My story began at a municipal animal shelter in Jangheung County, Jeollanam-do, South Korea, where I was rescued after being abandoned. It's heartbreaking to imagine how a young puppy like me ended up in such a difficult shelter environment. At an age when I should have been discovering the world, playing with toys, and enjoying the comfort of a loving home, I found myself in a place no puppy should have to experience. Thankfully, I was rescued and given another chance to experience the life every dog deserves. Despite my difficult beginning, I haven't lost my joyful spirit or my love for people and other dogs. In fact, my rescuers describe me as the very definition of a happy-go-lucky puppy, full of excitement, affection, and curiosity about everything around me. Now, I'm ready to leave those difficult days behind and find a forever family who will give me the safe, loving, and happy life I've always deserved. My rescuers hope that from now on, I'll get to spend the rest of my life in the best possible environment, surrounded by people who will cherish me as much as I cherish them. https://blog.naver.com/youumbba_official/224397104101  MY HEALTH Neutered Vaccinations administered on September 16, October 2, and November 5, 2026 Heartworm test (4DX): Negative on September 2, 2026   MY PERSONALITY If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I absolutely love life! I'm a cheerful, affectionate, playful little boy who seems to believe that everyone I meet is a potential best friend and every moment is an opportunity for something wonderful. My rescuers describe me as the perfect example of a happy, carefree puppy. I'm full of energy, curiosity, and excitement, and I have a special way of making the people around me smile. Whether I'm running up to greet someone, asking another dog to play, or simply enjoying the world around me, I approach life with an enthusiasm that's hard to resist. I absolutely adore people, including complete strangers! I don't need much time to warm up because I'm usually ready to make friends right away. I'll happily approach you, snuggle close, and ask for affection as though we've known each other forever. I even love showing my belly, sometimes to people I've only just met, because I'm so comfortable sharing my affection. I'm also a playful little troublemaker in the most adorable way. I love other dogs and frequently invite them to play, sometimes even when they're not particularly interested. Occasionally, another dog might tell me to calm down or give them some space, but that's just part of being an enthusiastic young puppy who's still learning social manners. My rescuers say I'm the kind of dog who will likely bring happiness wherever I go. With my fluffy appearance, affectionate personality, and endless enthusiasm for life, I have a wonderful ability to brighten the atmosphere around me. I'm a little bundle of love, laughter, and puppy energy, and I can't wait to share all of it with my forever family!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I'm extremely friendly and affectionate toward people, including complete strangers. I love approaching humans, snuggling up close, and receiving attention and affection. I'm comfortable being touched and gently picked up with proper support, and I happily show my belly to people I know well and even to people I've just met. Although I may sometimes bark when I notice an unfamiliar person, I'm generally very people-oriented and eager to make new friends. With Children: I'm very accepting of children under 13 and generally enjoy their company. My friendly, affectionate personality makes me a promising companion for families with children, although supervision is still important because I'm a playful puppy who can sometimes get carried away with excitement. With Dogs: I absolutely love other dogs! I'm friendly toward both familiar and unfamiliar canine companions, and I often approach them to say hello and invite them to play. I'm especially comfortable around dogs who are similar to me in size. Because I'm still young and full of enthusiasm, I sometimes continue asking other dogs to play even when they're not interested, which can occasionally earn me a correction from my canine friends. I'm still learning how to recognize when another dog needs space, so continued guidance and appropriate playtime supervision will be helpful. With Cats: When I encounter cats during walks, I generally remain focused on my person rather than showing much interest in them. However, my behavior around cats in a home environment hasn't been established, so any introductions should still be gradual and supervised.   MY ENERGY LEVEL I have a moderate energy level, although my cheerful puppy personality can make me seem like a little energizer at times! I love outdoor activities, playing with other dogs, and exploring the world around me, but once I've had enough activity, I'm generally happy to settle down and rest. Because I'm still a young puppy, I have plenty of curiosity and enthusiasm for new experiences. I enjoy having opportunities to play, socialize, and spend time with my favorite people, and I would love a family who can provide a healthy balance of physical activity, mental enrichment, and relaxation. Regular walks, interactive games, and positive training sessions will help me channel my playful energy while continuing to develop good habits. After a fun day of exploring and making friends, I'll be happy to relax and enjoy some affection from my family.   MY WALKING SKILLS I enjoy going for walks and generally follow my handler well, although I can sometimes pull on the leash or try to head in the direction that interests me most. After all, there's so much to see and explore, and sometimes my curiosity gets the better of me! Because I'm still young, I'll benefit from continued loose-leash walking practice and gentle guidance to help me understand that walks are something we enjoy together. Positive reinforcement, consistency, and patience will help me develop better walking manners as I grow. One lovely thing about me is that when I encounter cats during walks, I generally stay focused on my person rather than becoming overly distracted by them. With regular practice and plenty of positive experiences, I can continue becoming a wonderful walking companion.   MY HOME LIFE & MANNERS Although I'm still a young puppy, I've already developed some useful habits that will help me adjust to family life. I can use both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty areas, although I'll still need a consistent routine as I settle into a new home. I'm also generally calm when placed inside a kennel, which provides a good foundation for continued crate training. However, I can experience motion sickness during car rides, so my future family should keep this in mind when planning transportation and help me become more comfortable with car travel. One thing my future family should know is that I may bark when I encounter unfamiliar people. Although I'm naturally very friendly and affectionate, barking can still be part of how I respond to someone new. I also have a little habit of becoming protective of my food around other dogs. I don't guard food from people, but I may growl if another dog approaches while I'm eating. Because of this, separate feeding arrangements would be important in a multi-dog household. Since I'm still a puppy, I'm continuing to learn appropriate household manners and social boundaries. My playful enthusiasm can sometimes get the better of me, especially when I'm trying to convince another dog to play, but with consistent guidance and positive reinforcement, I can continue developing into a well-mannered companion.   WHAT I'M STILL LEARNING I'm still a young puppy with a whole world of things to learn! Although I'm naturally friendly, affectionate, and outgoing, my excitement sometimes makes it difficult for me to recognize when another dog isn't interested in playing. I absolutely love my canine friends and often invite them to play, but sometimes I can be a little too persistent. When another dog tells me to stop, I may need help understanding and respecting their boundaries. Continued supervised socialization with appropriate canine companions will help me develop better social manners. I'm also still working on my leash manners, as I can sometimes pull or try to choose my own direction during walks. With patience and positive reinforcement, I can learn to walk more calmly beside my person. Because I may bark when encountering unfamiliar people, I'll also benefit from consistent guidance to help me develop appropriate greeting habits. My future family should also be mindful of my tendency to guard food from other dogs and provide separate feeding spaces when needed. I'm still learning how to feel comfortable during car rides, too, since I can experience motion sickness. Gentle introductions to car travel and appropriate support will help my family manage this as I grow. Most importantly, I'm still learning how to navigate the world as a young, enthusiastic puppy. I have so much love and excitement to share, and with patient guidance, I can continue growing into a happy, confident, and well-mannered companion.   MY IDEAL HOME My dream home would be filled with love, laughter, playtime, and people who enjoy having an affectionate, cheerful puppy by their side. I'm naturally outgoing and people-loving, so I'd be happiest with a family who enjoys spending quality time with their dog and appreciates a playful personality. Because I'm still young, I'll need continued guidance, training, and opportunities to explore the world in a positive way. I'd love a family who enjoys regular walks, interactive play, and helping their puppy learn new things. I could potentially do very well in a home with another friendly, playful dog, especially one who enjoys having a canine companion of a similar size. However, because I can sometimes be overly enthusiastic and may guard my food from other dogs, thoughtful introductions, supervised playtime, and separate feeding arrangements would be important. I'd also be happy as an only dog with a family who can provide plenty of companionship, enrichment, and opportunities for appropriate socialization. Since I'm very accepting of children, I could be a wonderful addition to a family with kids who understand how to interact gently and respectfully with dogs. As with any puppy, supervision will be important to ensure everyone has a positive experience. Most importantly, I need a family who will appreciate my joyful spirit while helping me develop the manners and confidence I need to thrive. I'm still learning, but I have so much love to give.   WHY YOU'LL LOVE ME Have you ever met a dog who seems to believe that the entire world is one big, wonderful adventure? That's me! I'm Ppogeuri, a fluffy little Maltipoo with a heart full of love and a personality that can brighten even the gloomiest day. I love people. I love dogs. I love making new friends. And most of all, I love sharing my happiness with everyone around me. My rescuers describe me as the very definition of a happy-go-lucky puppy. I'm playful, affectionate, endlessly curious, and always ready for my next adventure. Sometimes I get a little too excited when asking other dogs to play, and sometimes I need a reminder to give my friends some space. But that's part of being a young puppy who's still learning about the world. What makes my story especially meaningful is where it began. At just 10 months old, I had already experienced life in a difficult municipal shelter in Jangheung County. My rescuers couldn't understand how such a young, affectionate puppy had ended up there, and they were incredibly relieved that I had been given another chance. Despite everything, I haven't lost my love for life. I still greet people with excitement, invite other dogs to play, and approach each day as though something wonderful is waiting just around the corner. My rescuers hope that from now on, I'll get to experience only the best that life has to offer: a safe home, a loving family, plenty of playtime, and endless opportunities to make happy memories. And I hope so, too. I may have started my life in a place no puppy should have to experience, but I'm ready to fill the rest of my story with love, laughter, and all the happiness my little heart can hold.   PPOGEURI’S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt:  https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2891295##

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: Sasha Age: 7 years old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Maltese Mix Color: White Weight: 3 kg / 6.6 lbs  Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY Hi, I'm Sasha! I'm a sweet seven-year-old Maltese mix with a beautiful snowy white coat, a petite little frame, and a heart full of love. I've been fortunate enough to experience the warmth and comfort of a loving home, where I shared many special moments with my adopter. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected medical emergency, my adopter suffered a stroke and is no longer physically able to provide the care I need. This difficult change in circumstances means that I'm now searching for a new forever family. Although my time with my previous family has come to an unexpected end, I'm grateful for the love and companionship we've shared. Through it all, I've remained the same sweet, gentle, and affectionate little girl who loves being around people. At seven years old, I'm hoping to find another loving home where I can continue enjoying the simple happiness of family life. I have so much love to share, and I'm looking forward to creating new memories with someone who will cherish me.   MY HEALTH Spayed All vaccinations up-to-date Healthy with no known health issues  Previous history of possible vocal cord surgery   MY PERSONALITY I'm a wonderfully sweet, friendly, and affectionate little girl who absolutely adores people. I have a gentle personality and love spending time with my humans, whether that means receiving cuddles, relaxing beside them, or simply enjoying their company. I've always been a people-loving dog, and I'm happy to receive affection from both familiar faces and new friends. I enjoy being close to people and am comfortable being picked up for cuddles. Although I love attention, I also have a calm and peaceful side. At seven years old, I'm happiest enjoying the simple pleasures of life: a comfortable place to rest, gentle affection, and the reassuring presence of someone I love. I'm not a particularly demanding or high-energy dog. I simply enjoy companionship and being included in my family's everyday life. My gentle, affectionate nature makes me a lovely companion for someone looking for a small dog with a big heart. I may be tiny, but I have so much love to give, and nothing makes me happier than sharing it with my favorite people.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I'm a very friendly and affectionate girl who loves human companionship. I enjoy receiving attention, cuddles, and gentle affection from both familiar people and strangers. I'm comfortable being picked up and love spending time close to my humans. My sweet personality makes me a wonderful little companion for someone who enjoys having an affectionate dog by their side. With Children: I'm good with children! My current information indicates that I can do well around kids, although introductions should always be supervised to ensure gentle and respectful interactions, especially because of my small size. With Dogs: My current compatibility with other dogs is uncertain. Previous observations suggested that I preferred having my humans' attention to myself and could be assertive around other pets. However, my present behavior around dogs hasn't been recently confirmed, so careful introductions and a compatibility assessment would be important before placing me in a multi-dog household. With Cats: My behavior around cats is currently unknown, so any introductions would need to be gradual and supervised.   MY ENERGY LEVEL I'm a calm, low-energy girl who enjoys a relaxed and comfortable lifestyle. I don't need constant excitement or intense physical activity to feel happy. I enjoy gentle walks, spending time with my people, and relaxing in a cozy environment. After a little activity, I'm perfectly content settling down and enjoying some quiet time. My peaceful temperament makes me a lovely match for someone who appreciates a calmer companion and enjoys spending time at home.   MY WALKING SKILLS I'm already leash trained and comfortable going for walks with my person. I enjoy having opportunities to explore outdoors and spend time together without needing particularly strenuous activities. Because I have a calm energy level, gentle daily walks are a lovely way for me to enjoy fresh air, exercise, and companionship. I'd be happy with a family who enjoys relaxed strolls and appreciates having a sweet little walking companion.   MY HOME LIFE & MANNERS I'm a lovely little companion with several habits that make me well suited to home life. I'm house-trained for both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty routines, giving my future family flexibility in maintaining a schedule that works for us. I'm also generally quiet and bark minimally. My gentle, calm personality makes me a peaceful companion to have around the home. I travel well in the car, which makes outings and transportation easier for my future family. One of my favorite things is simply being near my humans. I love affection and enjoy being included in everyday activities, whether that means relaxing together or following along as you go about your day. My previous profile also noted that I didn't guard food from people or other pets, although this hasn't been recently reassessed. Because I'm transitioning from a home where I was already loved and cared for, I'll benefit from a stable routine, patience, and reassurance as I adjust to my new surroundings.   WHAT I'M STILL LEARNING At seven years old, I already have many wonderful qualities and established habits. I'm leash trained, comfortable with indoor and outdoor potty routines, calm at home, and generally quiet. My biggest adjustment will be learning to feel comfortable in a new home with a new family. After having an adopter of my own, suddenly needing to start over may take some getting used to. I'll appreciate a family who understands that even a friendly, affectionate dog can need time to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings. My future family should also take the time to understand my current comfort level around other animals, since my compatibility with dogs and cats hasn't been recently confirmed. With a predictable routine, gentle encouragement, and plenty of affection, I hope to settle into my new home and feel secure again.   MY IDEAL HOME My dream home would be a calm, loving environment where I can enjoy the comfort and stability of being someone's cherished companion. I'm a very people-oriented girl, so I'd love a family who enjoys spending time with their dog and appreciates a sweet, affectionate personality. Whether we're relaxing together, enjoying gentle walks, or simply spending a quiet afternoon at home, I'll be happiest knowing I'm loved. Because my current compatibility with other animals is uncertain, a home where I can be the only pet may be a good option. A home with other animals would require careful introductions and an assessment of how comfortable we are together. I'm good with children, although gentle interactions and supervision are important because of my petite size. I'd especially appreciate a family who can provide a consistent routine and help me feel secure as I transition into this new chapter of my life. Most importantly, I hope to find people who will love me for the sweet, gentle companion I am and give me the stability of a forever home once again.   WHY YOU'LL LOVE ME Sometimes, life brings unexpected changes, even when we're surrounded by love. My name is Sasha, and I'm a seven-year-old Maltese mix with a snowy white coat, a gentle personality, and a heart that still has so much love to give. I've been lucky enough to know the comfort of a loving home and the special bond that comes from having someone to call my own. Unfortunately, my adopter recently experienced a serious medical emergency and is no longer able to care for me. While this wasn't the future anyone had planned, I'm now hoping to find another family who can welcome me into their hearts. I don't need a complicated life or endless adventures. I just want someone to love. Someone who will enjoy my gentle affection, take me on peaceful walks, and let me curl up nearby as we spend our days together. I'm friendly, sweet, and affectionate. I'm calm at home, walk nicely on a leash, travel well in the car, and know how to use both indoor potty pads and outdoor potty areas. Most of all, I love people. I may be seven years old, but I still have so many beautiful moments ahead of me and so much affection waiting to be shared. I'll always be grateful for the love I've experienced, and I'm ready to carry that same love into the next chapter of my life. I've already known the joy of being part of a family, and now I'm hoping to find another loving home where I can continue sharing my heart for years to come.   Apply to foster or adopt:  https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2892628##
