Story

She would have struggled to adapt once more to the shelter, so Adogs urgently rescued her. 3⃣ Basic Information * With People: Isn’t shy or fearful of strangers. Expresses herself well with familiar people and is very friendly! When she wants something, she paws at you, such as when she wants more pets. * With Dogs: Prefers alone time rather than play with other dogs, but coexists with them peacefully. She’s currently living with #AdogsJinro who keeps bothering her, so she’s a little tired. . * With Cats: Hasn’t met cats yet. * Separation Anxiety: Is living in a communal environment at the Adogs Center, so it’s unknown if she has separation anxiety. May need basic training in a home environment. * Potty Training: Is pottying outdoors at the Center. May need basic training if her environment changes. * Walks: It hasn’t been long since she entered the Center, so her walking manners still need to be assessed. * Car Sickness: Unknown, as she hasn’t been on long-distance car rides yet. * Biting: When Jinro keeps nibbling on her and being annoying, Chohee sometimes nips back and gets angry. * Barking: Has a quiet personality and doesn’t bark for no reason. * Likes: Really likes being petted and doted upon!

Story

Cotton Age: 3 years Sex: Spayed Female Breed: Maltese Terrier mix Color: White / Beige Weight: 8 kg (17.6 lbs) Height: 36 cm (shoulder height) Rescue Story Cotton was rescued from an extreme animal hoarding situation where over 230 dogs were being kept in poor conditions. Despite her past, Cotton is a gentle and affectionate little girl who still loves people and seeks comfort from humans. Special Note: Congenital Deafness (born deaf) ‍ Human Social Skills Cotton is very friendly and affectionate. She approaches both familiar people and strangers, enjoys rubbing against them, and allows easy handling. She can be comfortably picked up and will even show her belly once she bonds with you. She is good with children under 13, but because she is deaf, she may get startled by sudden movements or unexpected touches. Dog Social Skills Cotton will greet unfamiliar dogs but doesn’t really play with them. She generally prefers dogs similar to her size and feels overwhelmed by high-energy dogs. Although she’s not very interested in other dogs, she has lived with many dogs before and may feel anxious if she is the only dog in the home. Cats Cotton has passed her cat test and is currently being fostered in a home with cats. She usually ignores them, but sometimes at night, if she suddenly sees a cat’s shadow, she may get scared and bark. Energy Level Low energy. Cotton loves to rest and sleep most of the day. Because she is deaf, once she falls asleep, she tends to sleep very deeply and for long periods. Walks Cotton doesn’t have much walking experience yet, so she’s still learning. She generally follows her handler well, but if she feels scared, she may pull on the leash to move away from what’s frightening. Other Behaviors & Notes • No resource guarding with people or dogs. • Very quiet at the center, but after moving to foster, she showed separation anxiety and howled for about 3 days. • After training, she can now stay alone (with another dog present) for over 3 hours calmly. • She sleeps in the same space as people but not right next to them. • Still struggling with crate training — she becomes anxious and barks when she can’t see people. • No car sickness, but she is scared of getting into the car and needs to be carried in. • Currently uses both pee pads indoors and outdoor potty. Ideal Home Cotton would do best in a calm, patient home that understands deaf dogs and can communicate using visual cues and consistency. A home with another gentle dog may help her feel more secure. She is a sweet, quiet soul who just needs time, stability, and love to truly blossom Apply to adopt or foster: https://adoptmekr.org Please also visit our Facebook and Instagram!

Story

Echo Age: 2 years Sex: Neutered male Breed: Maltese/Terrier mix Color: White Weight: 9.1 kg (20 lbs) Height: 38 cm (15 in) Echo is deaf (he cannot hear). He relies on visual cues and human guidance, and stays very attentive to his person. Rescue Story: Echo was rescued from an animal hoarding situation where over 230 dogs were being kept. Human Socialization Echo is a very affectionate and friendly boy. He approaches both familiar people and strangers, rubs against them, and enjoys being petted. He likes both men and women and does well with children under 13 (he simply shows little interest). He is comfortable being picked up, and once he bonds with you, he loves showing his belly for rubs Dog Socialization Echo is friendly with both familiar and unfamiliar dogs and happily goes up to greet them. He doesn’t quite know how to “play properly” yet and mostly just runs around excitedly. He is not afraid of larger dogs, though he usually prefers dogs of similar size. If another dog provokes him, he tends to avoid conflict and gets along well without issues. After playtime, he usually likes to rest in his own quiet space. Cats His reaction to cats has not been observed yet, but a cat test can be arranged. Energy Level Low energy. Echo is a calm dog who enjoys relaxing and resting most of the time Walks Echo only recently started going on walks, so he is still learning to explore and sniff around. However, he walks nicely without pulling and follows his human well. Since he is deaf, he relies heavily on visual cues and tends to stay close and attentive to his handler. Other Behaviors Echo does not resource guard food with either people or dogs and is not particularly food-motivated. Because he was born and raised among many dogs, he has some baseline separation anxiety. When first placed in a new environment—especially since he is deaf—he may feel anxious if he cannot see his person. In the past, he showed behaviors like scratching walls, the floor, or tearing pee pads. However, once he adjusts, he becomes very relaxed, sleeps well, and can stay alone comfortably. He rarely barks and is currently doing both indoor pee pad training and outdoor potty. Foster History • First foster home: About 2 weeks. No howling when left alone, but scratched at closed doors. • Second foster home: About 1.5 months. Did well staying alone. • Current: Staying at the AKR Center. Echo is a gentle, quiet, and loving soul. He may need a little patience during the initial adjustment period, but once he feels safe, he becomes an incredibly easy and calm companion who just wants to stay close to his person.
