1. Health Condition
* Neutered.
* Microchipped and heartworm negative.
* Due to consistent treatment, Ruki has completely recovered from his skin disease and the darkened skin has become pink again.
2. Rescue Story
* Rukie, a puppy of #AdogsMiso was rescued from a hoarder’s home in Gimje, and was transferred to the Gimje City Shelter. He already had a skin disease and wasn’t able to get proper treatment at the shelter, so Adogs rescued him before it worsened.
3. Basic Information
* With People: Is shy around new people, but does not dislike them or bark at them. Is not yet fully comfortable with being touched, so she may need to be gently guided into a corner before petting. Once being petted, however, she stays calm and accepts it well. Is timid and easily frightened, so she needs time to become comfortable with new people, but lives comfortably with people she is familiar with. Is gradually opening up and now responds when called, comes closer, and sometimes briefly sniffs the person. Through consistent desensitization training with physical contact, she has also become less fearful and resistant when being picked up.
* With Dogs: Got along well with no issues with the other dogs at our center.
* With Cats: Unknown because he hasn’t met them yet.
* Separation anxiety: Stays calm when left alone and sometimes sleeps comfortably by herself.
* House training: Prefers to use the potty pads indoors. Has occasional accidents when urinating. When a waterproof potty tray was placed for her, she also started having accidents on the floor, so her living space has been temporarily reduced and her potty training is being restarted. Since reducing her space, she has been using the pee pad well. Is currently taking medication for coprophagia (stool eating), but occasional episodes still occur, so some monitoring is necessary.
* Grooming and Hygiene: Calmly tolerates both bathing and brushing. Because she is very timid and cautious, it is best to handle her grooming at home whenever possible. Has recently become more comfortable with being touched by her foster caregivers, and they are currently practicing nail trimming at her foster home.
* Walks: Because she is easily frightened, she is gradually being introduced to walking equipment. With consistent training, she has become accustomed to wearing a collar, but is still afraid of the leash and requires continued training.
* Car sickness: Becomes tense when traveling by car and may have a bowel accident inside her kennel.
* Mouthing/biting: Because she is very timid, she may react defensively with her mouth in certain situations such as having his bottom wiped, so caution is needed. As she becomes more familiar with the person, however, she tends to allow touch even in situations where she previously reacted defensively. If her hind paws are repeatedly handled, she may make a small biting motion and try to put the person's hand in her mouth. However, if the person pretends that it hurts, she shows that she dislikes it but will turn her face away and tolerate it.
* Biting: Might whimper if you try to hug him against his will. Also tends to "cry" or whine to let you know when he has had a potty accident and need it cleaned up. Has only barked once after moving to his foster home when he became startled from the sound of the alarm clock.
* Likes: Likes treats well and enjoys having her face gently touched and playing with her caregiver.
* Dislikes: Is afraid of loud noises and sudden movements of a hand coming down from above. Can become nervous in crowded places or at the veterinary clinic and may have accidents. Supporting her from underneath and holding her gently against your side can help her feel more secure. Dislikes having her paws touched and especially strongly resists having her front paws handled. If the leash is pulled, she may try to run away. Is also frightened by enclosed spaces and may urinate or defecate out of fear.
* Personality: Is extremely gentle and sweet natured. Tends to be fearful and timid, but has adapted well to a home environment at his foster home. Is accepting of touch once he becomes familiar with the environment.
