Story
Zoe is a beautiful 9-year-old Shiba Inu looking for a calm, child-free home. She has been a beloved part of our family since a puppy, but with a toddler and a new baby on the way, we can no longer provide the controlled environment she needs to feel safe and relaxed. Zoe is an independent, loyal companion who enjoys quiet time and routine. She’s generally calm & quiet but has some behavioral sensitivities & can be reactive around children and other dogs and may snap if touched unexpectedly. Because of this, she’ll do best in a home without young kids or other pets, with someone experienced in understanding and managing Shiba behaviors. She is currently on medication for anxiety and allergies, which help her stay comfortable. Zoe is house-trained, crate-trained, up to date on vaccinations and vet visits, and prefers a peaceful environment with predictable routines. We are looking for a patient, responsible adopter who can offer Zoe a safe and loving home for her senior years!

Story
Because I have been diagnosed with cancer, I am no longer able to properly care for my dog, so I am hoping to find her a new home. She has a timid personality, but she is very loyal to her owner. During the time I have cared for her, she has never damaged furniture. She is fearful of strangers and unfamiliar dogs, and she is not friendly toward strangers or other pets. I hope her next owner will be a patient and loving person who can treat her with kindness and understanding.

🩷 Rescue Story Shiney was rescued from a legal breeding facility in Jeongeup city from South Korea. After spending her early life in a breeding environment, she was given the opportunity to leave that setting behind and start a new chapter. Since entering foster care, she has shown a calm, composed demeanor and has adjusted steadily to a quieter, more stable life. 🌿 Temperament & Behavior Malgeum is a quiet and independent dog who prefers to mind her own business. She shows little interest in other dogs and generally ignores them rather than engaging. She does not do well with cats and may attempt to chase them if she sees one. With children, she is tolerant and gentle. Even when a child touches her, she remains calm and still, showing no signs of aggression. 🚶 Walking & Daily Life Malgeum follows an outdoor-only potty routine and is fully accustomed to doing her business outside. Her overall demeanor is calm and self-contained. She is not demanding of attention and is comfortable spending time on her own. 🏡 Habits & Training Malgeum is well-adjusted to daily routines and does not exhibit problematic behaviors. Her independent nature makes her an easy companion for adopters who appreciate a dog with a more reserved personality. 💛 Likes & Personality Malgeum values personal space and a peaceful environment. She may not seek constant affection, but she offers quiet companionship in her own steady way. She is currently living in a foster home.

Story
** Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea ** • Rescue Story : Meet Dong-yeop👋 Dong-yeop was wandering in the mountain and the neighborhood. He followed other dogs walking around. Some residents filed many complaints to fire stations, police stations and animal rescue organizations, but they all failed to rescue him, raising vigilance. In the meantime, He often appeared in front of the house of a resident and ate meat she was feeding him. Some residents who were interested in Dong-yeop's rescue in the neighborhood decided to work together to rescue the dog, set up a fence in front of the house, and succeeded in rescuing Dong-yeop who came in to eat. Since then, Dong-yeop has been living in a temporary foster home for months, where he had good care and love and learned lots of tricks. He has turned into an amazing dog who loves walking and playing with toys! He is now more than ready to find his own forever home! • Personality: Shy, Smart, Curious • Affinity with -Cats: He tends to chase street cats but is not very interested in indoor family cats.  -Dogs: Great with other dogs. He also relies on the resident dog in his foster home.  -Adults/Kids: Shy around new faces / not much interest in kids • Shedding: 5-6 (1-10 scale) • Food Allergies/Picky Eater: No food allergies. While he loves meat very much, he doesn't eat vegetables or fruits. • Walking Manners: Still in training but improved a lot on leash walking! Now he's excited to go out for walks. • Housetrained: Fully-housebroken, using the bathroom only outside. • Baths: Not a fan! • Separation Anxiety: None, thanks to the other dog in the house. • Bark or Howl: Not really... except when he greets his foster at home out of joy. • Likes & Dislikes: He likes other dogs and tug-of-war! He loves beef and he likes to get pets! / He's not a fan of being chased or carried by people. He seems to get better as times go by though.
