Story
Kon`nichiwa (Hello)! I`m Nori. I`m a young Shiba Inu, looking for my furever home. Some facts about my breed: yes, we are the Doge-meme dogs and a national treasure of Japan! So yes, royalty does run in my blood. But instead of ruling all of Japan, all I want is to bring a little royalty to your home. A few things about us Shiba Inu: we’re known as the cats of the dog world, meaning we’re a bit smarter than the average dog, but also a little stubborn in training because we think we know better. With some patience and a good treat or five, we’ll definitely work with you and make you smile no matter what. If you’re looking for a little rising-sun energy to brighten your life, look no further and consider adopting me today! Oh, one more thing: you may notice I have a DIVA fee—well, that DIVA fee helps all my fellow friends here at the shelter. It`s my way of giving back to the shelter that helped me find my forever home.A few notes from my foster home:`Nori is a cutie, but best to not let that be your deciding factor to adopt her! She has a cuddly bear kind of attraction—but don`t let that fool you. As typical of the breed, she does not enjoy cuddles! She enjoys playing with toys and the other dog in the home. She has a healthy curiosity for the cats and will back off if told. Nori loves her kibble and treats and will be eager to work for you. This is a good thing, because food motivation is the best path to success with this breed. She is a pretty chill puppy, already doing fantastic with housetraining. She is working on crate training—she is loyal to the breed and wants to follow you around, but can settle after a few whines. She is a unique girl and fun to get to know! Can`t stress enough: brush up on the breed characteristics, as she is very true to the breed even at such a young age!`

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Miller Age: 3 years old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Shiba & Jindo mix Color: Beige & Cream Weight: 10kg / 22lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I’m not sure how I ended up all alone in the city pound, but I was placed on the euthanasia list simply because there wasn’t enough space for dogs like me. Despite that scary chapter, I never lost my gentle, loving heart—and now I’m just hoping to find the forever family who will give me the safe, happy life I’ve been waiting for.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues I had to undergo surgery to remove my right eye, but my left eye has good vision and no issues.   MY PERSONALITY Hi! I’m Miller. I’m not sure how my right eye got injured, but when I was rescued, it was in a very bad shape and I needed surgery to have it removed. Even with just my left eye, I don’t let it slow me down or dampen my spirit! I’m a sweet, gentle boy who truly loves people. I’m naturally a little shy at first, but with patience I warm up—and volunteers and staff can always see that I want to interact, even if I hesitate in the beginning. I’m getting braver every day, learning to trust more, and showing more of my affectionate, friendly side as I grow confident.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I can be shy in the beginning, but I’ll gently take treats from your hand. After I warm up, I’m comfortable with pets and gentle affection. Once trust is established, I can be picked up. I’m a sweet boy who enjoys people, and as I grow more confident and settled in my new home, I’ll become a loyal shadow. · With Dogs: I’m pretty indifferent with other dogs. I can get overwhelmed by high-energy pups and prefer to do my own thing, calmly observing the environment. If another dog is rude or pushy, I simply walk away from the drama and avoid conflict. ·With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to find the best match!   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level—I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m just as happy to snuggle up indoors afterward.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk well on leash and follow my handler’s lead nicely. I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs—in fact, I have a big appetite and love treats, so I’m eager to please and learn. I’m confident I’ll pick up training quickly. I’m very quiet and rarely bark, and I know how to rest calmly in my kennel. I do struggle with car rides, as I can get motion sickness. I potty both indoors (on pee pads) and outdoors, though I may mark a little when I’m adjusting to a new environment.   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, and a stable environment. A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout and continue to provide me with basic training and socialization. A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together. A family that will love and cherish me forever. Ideally, a family experienced with Shibas and primitive breeds. The only dog in the household.   SPECIAL NOTES Don’t let my shyness fool you—I’m a sweet boy who really does like people. I just need a little time at first to show my affectionate side. I’m improving every day, and I’m confident that in a loving home I’ll fully come out of my shell and express myself. I wag my tail and show interest in people, even if I hesitate at the start. I love treats and I’m very food-motivated, so I’m eager to learn and please. I’m considered to be a level 3 rescue dog, meaning I will take at least a week to open up and feel more settled in a new environment. I must wear my martingale collar at all times and double-leashed to my harness and collar with a GPS tracker when outside to keep me safe.   Miller's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2595121##

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Siho Age: 3 years old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Shiba Color: Beige Weight: 13kg / 28.6lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I’m not sure how I ended up abandoned at the city pound, suddenly on my own and trying my best to cope. Because the shelter was overcrowded, I was placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully I was rescued just in time, and now I’m ready to find a forever family who will love and protect me.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi! I’m Siho. I’m an adorable little guy with all the classic shiba charm—from my fox-like looks to my expressive personality. I’m super social with people and enjoy hanging out with my dog friends too. Like a true shiba, I’m very clear about what I want, I occasionally let out my iconic “shiba screams,” and I flash my cute squinty shiba smile whenever I’m happy. I’m full of character in the best way!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m very friendly with people and love soaking up attention. I’ll even roll over for belly rubs right away—complete with my signature shiba smile. You can pick me up, too! I haven’t had much experience around kids yet, but with my sweet nature, I could do well with slow, mindful introductions and dog-savvy children. I can get a bit mouthy when I play (classic young shiba energy!), so I’ll need some basic obedience training to help me learn good manners and manage my excitement. · With Dogs: I’m social with my dog friends too! I love greeting new dogs and jumping into play, especially with pups around my own size. I’m still learning proper doggy manners though—I can be a little pushy at times (e.g. mounting), and I don’t always pick up on social cues right away. If another dog corrects me, I let out a dramatic shiba scream and act like the world is ending. I stay true to the dramatic shiba side. But underneath my goofy side, I truly want to make friends. With continued guidance, structure, and thoughtful introductions, I’ll keep growing into a well-mannered and confident playmate. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown, so I’m not sure how I’d behave just yet. A cat test can be arranged upon request to help find the best match!   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a high energy level. I need lots of outdoor time and exhaust my energy before settling nicely indoors.   TRAINING & HABITS I can pull a bit, but overall I walk well on leash. I don’t guard my food against people or other dogs. I may bark for attention and can bark at strangers at first, but I settle with time and guidance. I’m still learning to relax in my kennel and might whine in the beginning. I potty both indoors (on a pee pad) and outdoors, and I may mark when I’m in a new environment until I feel fully settled.   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, and a stable environment. A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout. A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together. A family that will love and cherish me forever. Ideally, a family experienced with Shibas or primitive breeds who understands my typical Shiba traits and can continue my basic training.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a classic Shiba through and through—adorable, expressive, and full of personality! I can be a little dramatic, a little opinionated, and very clear about what I want, so I’ll thrive with a family who understands Shiba quirks and can guide me with patience and consistency. I’m still learning manners like calmer greetings, managing my excitement, and reading dog social cues, but I’m eager to learn with the right guidance. With a confident, Shiba-savvy family by my side, I know I’ll blossom into the funniest, most loving companion.   Siho's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2589530##

Story
Meet Danbi — Looking for Her Forever Family!   Name: Danbi Age: 3 years Sex: Spayed Female Spayed: Yes Breed: Shiba–Jindo Mix Color: Brown Weight: 13kg Height (shoulder): 41cm   Rescue Story   Danbi entered a city shelter with her four newborn puppies. Sadly, all her puppies passed away there, and she was rescued on June 15, 2023. She has since spent 2.5 years living safely at the shelter and is now finally ready for a loving home of her own.   ‍‍ Socialization with People   Danbi is affectionate and friendly — she approaches both familiar and unfamiliar people on her own, leans in for pets, and enjoys being touched. She likes both women and men.   She hasn’t met children under 13, but based on her calm, gentle nature, we expect she will do well with them. She can be picked up with arms under her belly, and once she bonds with you, she’ll even show her tummy for belly rubs.   Socialization with Dogs   Danbi absolutely loves other dogs. She greets both familiar and unfamiliar dogs politely and invites them to play. Her dog social skills are excellent — even when another dog jumps on her or plays a bit too rough, she never reacts negatively.   She especially enjoys dogs around her size and thrives with friendly, playful companions.   Cats   She shows curiosity when she sees cats on walks but will follow her handler’s lead without pulling or lunging. A cat test can be arranged upon request.   Energy Level   Danbi has a moderate energy level. She enjoys outdoor activities but settles calmly afterward. Inside the home, she is relaxed and easygoing.   ‍ Walking Manners   Danbi loves sniffing, so her pace is “walk–stop–sniff–walk.” She walks well in quiet areas but becomes slightly hesitant in heavy traffic. If she gets scared, she does not bolt — instead, she stays close to her handler and walks slowly beside them.   Other Behaviors • No food guarding toward people or dogs • Not vocal — rarely barks • No separation anxiety • Calm in the crate • Prefers doing her potty outdoors   If you think sweet Danbi could be the perfect addition to your family, please submit an application through our website Apply to foster or adopt to show him how beautiful the world can be. www.adoptmekr.org Please visit our Facebook or Instagram.

Story
🏠Currently in a Toronto foster home Hi, I’m Cici — and I can’t wait to meet my forever family. 🤎 I’m a 3-year-old Jindo–Shiba mix girl with a strong, healthy 16.8kg body and an even stronger heart. I was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Korea — a place where my story almost ended before it truly began. But I got a second chance, and now I’m living safely in a foster home in Toronto, hoping the next part of my journey leads me straight into your arms. I love people. Really, truly love them. Even when I meet someone for the first time, I open my heart right away — wagging my tail, smiling, and gently asking for affection. I’m the type who likes to stay close, make eye contact, and share warm moments of connection. People say I have a very soft, loving soul. On walks, I get a little excited and may pull on the leash, but I’m practicing and getting better every day. I adjust quickly to new places and sounds, so everyday life with me is easy and fun. I also get along well with other dogs. I do have one thing to keep in mind: when I see small animals like cats or birds, my curiosity kicks in and I want to chase them. So in a home with different kinds of pets, I would need careful management. I’m a healthy eater, a bright and gentle girl, and I’ve been told more than once that I’m pretty adorable too. Just being near me, people say they feel warm — maybe that’s my special charm. Right now, I’m waiting for a forever family who will love me completely. Once I give my heart, I love deeply and for life. Please adopt me, and let me bring love, warmth, and joy into your home. 🤎
