Story
Hi… my name is Gaon 🐕 I’m a 4-year-old male Shiba × Jindo mix, and I weigh about 18kg.I was once placed on a shelter’s euthanasia list. Even after I was rescued, no one came for me for a very long time. The shelter became the only home I knew—far longer than any dog should have to endure.When people approach me, I don’t rush forward with excitement. Instead, I watch carefully. I’m afraid you might leave. Afraid I might be alone again. So I open my heart slowly, cautiously.But behind that hesitation is a heart that longs deeply to love a person. I simply never learned how to show it. I went so long without being chosen, without being loved, that I don’t always know how to ask for affection.That’s why I struggle when attention is shared with other dogs. It’s not jealousy—it’s more like a quiet plea: “Please don’t leave me this time.”That’s why I’m hoping for an only-dog home, where I can finally feel secure.When it’s just you and me, I’m a completely different dog. I’ll meet your eyes, lean gently against you, and offer shy little gestures of affection. Once I give my heart, I give it fully— with the deep, unwavering loyalty that Jindo dogs are known for.Home life may feel unfamiliar to me at first. I’ll need time, patience, and understanding.But if you’re willing to walk that slow beginning with me, I promise you this: I will become a dog who makes one person my whole world. A once-in-a-lifetime companion who loves quietly, deeply, and forever.Somewhere in a shelter, I’m still waiting— waiting for the one person who will call my name and mean it for life.

Story
Hi… I’m Norang 🤍 I was found wandering in the mountains, after losing my mom. I wasn’t alone back then—I had my siblings with me. But one by one, they found their families and left for their new homes. Now… it’s just me. And I’m still here, waiting. Hoping my turn will come. I’m a bright and friendly boy. I like people, and I get along well with other dogs too. At first, I might feel a little shy… but if you give me just a little time, I’ll come closer with a wagging tail and a curious heart. Because I really do love being near you. I’m still just a puppy—only 1 years old. So I’m full of energy, curiosity, and a little bit of mischief too 😊 I love toys. I love running and playing. And every day, I’m learning something new about the world. There are still many things I don’t know yet. Living in a home, potty training, understanding what I can and can’t do… I’ll need you to teach me all of that, step by step. Sometimes I might chew on things, or make little mistakes. But I’m not trying to be bad—I’m just growing, learning, becoming who I’m meant to be. Right now, I’m not a “perfect” dog. I’m a dog in the middle of becoming. And that means something special— because you get to be part of who I grow into. With your love, your guidance, and your patience, I can become the best companion you could ever ask for. Even after losing my family, I still trust people. I still believe in love. Now I just need someone who won’t leave— someone who will stay, teach me, and grow with me. I don’t want to be alone anymore. I want a home. I want you. Will you be my forever family? 🤍

Story
🏠 Currently in a Toronto foster homeHi, I'm Nire! 🤍🐾 My name is Nire, and I'm a 3-year-old Shiba Inu mix girl weighing 14.3 kg (31.5 lbs). I have bright round eyes, a happy smile, and a heart full of love just waiting for my forever family. Before I was rescued, life was not very kind to me. I was saved from a shelter where my future was uncertain, but you would never guess it from the way I greet each day. I love people, I love being loved, and I still believe the best is yet to come.When we first meet, I might be a little shy and cautious. New places and unfamiliar faces can make me nervous for a moment. But if you give me a little patience and kindness, I'll soon come over to say hello, ask for pets, and show you my sweet and affectionate side. I enjoy spending time with other dogs, but if I'm being honest, people are my favorite. Nothing makes me happier than going for a walk together, sharing quiet moments, making eye contact, and simply being near the people I love. I dream of a family who wants a loyal companion to share everyday life with.I'm a smaller-sized girl with a calm and gentle personality. I don't need to be the center of attention. I'm happiest quietly staying by your side, watching the world together. As our bond grows, you'll discover that I'm actually quite the little sweetheart who loves affection and may even follow you around the house just to be close to you. I'm fully house trained! Because I enjoy human companionship and respond well to gentle guidance, I believe I'll settle into home life beautifully with a family willing to help me along the way.I've already survived one difficult chapter in my life. Now I'm hoping for a new beginning—a home filled with love, patience, and belonging. I don't need anything fancy. I just want a family to love and a place where I can finally stay forever. Could that family be you?

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to SEA💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Dooly🦕 (It's famous Korean dinosaur character name) 💙 Adogs Updates Account: @_adogs_ ​1️⃣ Health Condition ​Neutered. ​Microchipped.​2️⃣ Rescue Story* ​Dooly spent his puppyhood at the Gimje Shelter with his siblings, #AdogsDonor and #AdogsTtochi, after being found without their mother. When Adogs staff visited the shelter, they were so moved by the puppies wagging their tails that they decided to rescue the entire litter.​3️⃣ Basic Information* ​With People: Is curious about humans but quite timid, so he doesn't usually approach first. Please approach him slowly, as sudden movements may startle him. Shows curiosity and sniffs people who are sitting or have their backs turned. Occasionally, he will come close on his own to take treats.* ​With Dogs: Gets along well with his friends at the center. Rather than playing energetically, he prefers to relax and rest. Sometimes mouths at other friends as if giving them a warning if there are treats around. With Cats: Watches and tries to chase cats. However, during walks, he is usually too tense to chase them even if he sees one. ​Separation Anxiety: Unknown, as he is currently living in a group environment. May require training when transitioning to a home life.* ​Potty Training: Currently only relieves himself outdoors. Exhibits marking behavior during walks and outdoor time.* ​Hygiene: Tends to avoid physical touch, so we are working on this very slowly and patiently.* ​Walks: Thanks to training at a school and consistent walks with volunteers, he walks very well. However, because he is easily startled, a double-leash is mandatory for safety. Tends to pull slightly to maintain distance from the person walking him. May try to dart away if startled by people or passing cars.* ​Biting: May show mouthing or snapping behavior if forced to do something against his will.* ​Barking: Rarely barks.* ​Likes: Loves treats! Will come close to people to accept a tasty snack.* ​Dislikes: Is still uncomfortable with physical touch and prefer not to be petted for now.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️💟Available to fly to SEA💟The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate.Meet Yunjeong😊 💙 Name: Yunjeong 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 5 years old (Born January 2021) 💙 Weight: 12 kg (approx. 26 lbs) 💙 ADOGS Instagram (KR): @adogs 💙 English Profile: @_adogs_rescue 1. Medical History - Neuter Status: Completed (Spayed) - Microchip: Registered (Internal chip completed) - Other Notes: Heartworm retest negative 2. Rescue Story In the exceptionally freezing January of 2021, Yunjeong was staying at the Gimje Shelter with her newborn puppies. Tragically, she lost all of her babies to canine parvovirus. Deeply concerned about her failing physical and emotional health, ADOGS stepped in urgently to rescue her. 3. Personality & Characteristics - Interaction with Humans: She is shy and very fearful, often retreating to a corner when strangers approach. She remains cautious even with familiar faces and prefers to be left alone in her space to enjoy her treats. However, if you spend enough time in the same room and approach her very slowly, she accepts physical touch and petting well. - Interaction with Dogs: She prefers being alone rather than mingling with other dog friends. She coexists fine as long as other dogs don't bother her first. However, she shows severe aggression when sharing a sleeping or personal living space with other dogs, so she must be housed separately from them. - Interaction with Cats: She showed absolutely no reaction when encountering cats during her walks. - Separation Anxiety: Since she is currently staying at the shelter, it is difficult to assess. She will need structured training from the beginning once she transitions to a home. - Potty Training: Since she is currently living in a group environment at the shelter, her exact housebreaking habits cannot be fully determined yet. - Grooming & Hygiene: Out of fear, she tends to lay flat, but she tolerates baths, blow-drying, and brushing very gently. She tries to pull her paws away uncomfortably when you hold them before a nail trim, but she behaves well once the actual trimming begins. - Leash Walking: She tends to pull on the leash a bit at the beginning of a walk. Because she is easily frightened, she may lay flat on the ground or spin around her handler when she feels scared. She needs calm, gentle reassurance and patient leash training. - Motion Sickness: She has not traveled in a car yet, so it is unknown. - Biting/Aggression: She can show aggression and pick fights with other dogs when unsupervised in a shared space, so she must be safely separated from other animals. - Barking: She is incredibly quiet; she has shown absolutely no barking or whining behavior. - Likes: She loves resting quietly on her own and enjoys munching on treats in a comfortable, safe space. - Dislikes: Since she is still fearful of humans, she may get startled and have a potty accident if you try to pick her up or hold her suddenly. You must give her plenty of time and space. - Personality: Yunjeong is a calm, quiet soul who opens her heart very slowly. She thoroughly enjoys spending peaceful, comforting time all by herself.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to U.S. and Canada💟 Meet Gowoon🧡 💙 Name: Gowoon 💙 Gender: Female 💙 Age: Estimated 6 years old (Born in February 2020) 💙 Weight: 14 kg / 30.86 lb 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_ 1️⃣ Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped and heartworm negative upon retest. 2️⃣ Rescue Story * Gowoon gave birth to seven puppies at the Gimje City Shelter in late 2021. As her body was severely weakened after delivery and the pups would not be able to survive the shelter's harsh conditions, Adogs stepped in urgently to rescue Gowoon and her entire family. 3️⃣ Basic Information * With People: Is very timid and cautious around people. May run away or freeze up initially. During her time at training school, it took a lot of time to build trust with her trainer. It is important to go slow, refrain from overwhelming her, and wait until she feels calm enough to accept treats. Once familiar, she allows gentle touches on her chest and basic care in an enclosed space while on a leash, though not yet fully unrestricted. * With Dogs: Approaches new dogs to sniff them. Is not shy with dog friends but isn't the type to be overly energetic during play. Coexists harmoniously without ever picking fights. * With Cats: Showed zero reaction when spotting a cat 10 meters away through a fence. * Separation Anxiety: Handles independent time wonderfully without separation anxiety. Actually becomes a bit more active and relaxed when alone. * Potty Training: Currently potties outdoors at our center. May need retraining when moving to a new home environment. * Hygiene: Accepts baths and tooth brushing in a restricted area while leashed once she trusts you. Through ongoing desensitization training, her tolerance for coat brushing and nail trims has improved, though performing care slowly inside a small fence or safe enclosure is recommended. * Walks: Does walk smoothly thanks to consistent training at the school. However, as urban environments can present unexpected triggers for a timid dog, careful observation is needed. A double leash and extra attentive care are required. Rather than like going on walks, she seems to simply follow her handler’s lead. * Car Sickness: Rides cars very calmly with zero motion sickness. * Barking: Tends to bark when hearing loud noises outside. Barks when she is outside alone and hears people inside the kennel without seeing them. Sometimes barks when expressing a desire to join other dogs in the play yard. * Biting: Used to show occasional fear-based mouthiness in the past. Thanks to her dedicated training, if she opens her mouth defensively, simply petting and reassuring her diffuses the behavior completely without any aggression. May become mouthy when putting on a leash prior to walks, but it goes smoothly if you redirect her attention through treats before buckling the leash. * Personality & Traits: Gets along well with other dogs and expresses her likes or dislikes clearly. Is shy and timid so she gets scared of sudden movements, fast approaches, loud noises, or hands moving directly toward her face. Gentle, patient training and allowing sufficient time for her to adapt is essential.
