Story
🩷 Rescue Story Lina was rescued just before euthanasia from "Jeongeup Shelter" in South Korea. Thanks to timely intervention, she was given a second chance at life and moved into foster care, where her bright and affectionate personality has truly blossomed. 🌿 Temperament & Behavior Lina is friendly and social. On walks, she shows curiosity toward other dogs and cats, but when she meets a cat, she simply sniffs briefly and walks away calmly. She gets along well with other dogs and can live in a multi-dog household. She may show a bit of jealousy at times, as many girls do, but she has never shown aggression or biting behavior. She is extremely affectionate and loves attention. She is friendly with all people, though she is especially drawn to women and seems to have a soft spot for women in their 50s. 🚶 Walking & Daily Life Lina enjoys leisurely walks with plenty of time to sniff and explore. She is always walked using a double leash for safety. Her shedding level is moderate to slightly high, about 6 out of 10. She is not picky with food and is fed high-quality kibble. Her regular diet includes Acana Free-Run Duck or Blue Buffalo Salmon. Treats are given sparingly, about once a week. 🏡 Habits & Training Lina primarily does her potty outdoors. She goes on walks in the morning and evening, ranging from one hour to sometimes up to two hours. She does well with baths. While brushing hasn’t been necessary due to her coat type, she enjoys being touched and handled. She does not show separation anxiety. When her foster returns home, she simply greets them happily with tail wags and no destructive behavior. She barks only occasionally—once when she is in a great mood, or briefly in response to loud motorcycle delivery noises. She may experience mild motion sickness on longer car rides, such as trips to nearby camping areas, but she has never vomited. 💛 Likes & Personality Lina loves walking side by side with her foster mom and truly enjoys greeting and meeting her dog friends. Her gentle nature and affectionate personality make her a joy to be around. She is currently living in a foster home.

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 Mallow👋 This sweetheart was found wandering alone on a street in South Korea in Feb 2024. Sadly, he ended up in a high-risk shelter and on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, the rescue team stepped in just in time, giving him a second chance at life. While having heartworm treatment in a clinic, Mallow moved into his foster home in July 2024. Now, he’s ready to find his forever family! • Personality: Calm, Sweet, Shy Mallow needs a little time and space to feel comfortable, but once he does, he’ll open up beautifully. It may take patience, but winning his heart will be one of the most rewarding experiences ever! He is such a cuddle bug! • Affinity with -Cats: Not interested in cats on walks -Dogs: a huge dog-lover! Very friendly with other dogs regardless of size. He would adjust better in a home with another dog! -Adults/Kids: Good with adults. / Not a fan of kids - he would be the best fit in a home without children. • Housetrained: Fully housebroken, using pee pads indoors and going potty outdoors both. • Walking Manner: Very good on a leash! Wants to keep walks short. • Shedding: 5-6 • Food Allergies: No • Car Rides: Good • Barker or Quiet: Barks a little bit when hearing the loud noise from outside. • Separation Anxiety: He whimpers a little right after his foster family leaves home, but calms down soon. • Bathing/Brushing: Very good. • Likes & Dislikes: Loves treats, doggy friends, and cuddles! / Not a big fan of young kids • Health: Completed heartworm treatment in late 2024 and was cleared of infection by April 2025. Had a few teeth extracted this October due to root damage, but it doesn’t affect his ability to chew. Regular and thorough tooth brushing is essential. Otherwise, he’s a healthy boy! 💙 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
💙 Name: Jerry 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 4 months old (Born in August 2025) 💙 Weight: 3.2 kg / 7.05 lb 💙 Adogs Center Updates: @_adogs_ 1⃣ Health Condition * Not spayed yet. * Microchipped. * Is being treated for a minor injury on her tail, including disinfection. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Jerry was living at the Gimje City Shelter. She was waiting for someone to hold out a hand to her, but no one showed up to be her family. The weather was becoming colder and it was determined that it would be hard for Jerry to live at the shelter under poor conditions, so Adogs urgently rescued her. 3⃣ Basic Information ❗️As a puppy, she may need training in areas such as separation anxiety, potty habits, biting, nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling and barking. ❗️It is difficult to predict her shedding and growth size because her parents are unknown. * With People: Even when she is with the caregiver, she gets scared of strangers, tucks her tail and freezes up. Once getting familiar, she shows her playful and adorable side. With the caregiver, she stays by the person's side, plays with her toys, naps, and even shows her belly. Is a bit wary of people standing and moving around; she usually keeps her distorted retreats to her kennel. * With Dogs: Got along well with other dogs at our center. Hasn’t met any dog friends since moving to the foster home. * With Cats: Hasn’t met them yet. * Separation Anxiety: Unclear, as she is rarely left alone in the foster home. * Potty Training: Has an accuracy rate of 99% pottying indoors on potty pads but she tries to move away before she's completely done pooping. * Hygiene: Gets a bath once a month. * Walks: Her vaccinations are not complete, so she hasn’t been on any walks. * Car Sickness: Didn’t show any signs of car sickness. * Doesn’t bite, but may nibble or nip since she’s still a teething puppy. Has started chewing on her paws pads recently, but not to an excessive degree. * Whines quietly when left alone in an unfamiliar environment. * Feels comfortable in her kennel and goes inside whenever she's scared or wants to rest. * Is very timid and easily scared of unfamiliar places, situations and people. * Already knows how to "sit" and "lie down."
