Story
camilo is 2 years old and his birthday is on June 12, he loves to go on walks and play around and loves to eat a lot of food. Sometimes camilo can misbehave and start barking but when you yell at him to stop barking he will listen and stop, camilo will get so attached to you he will protect and follow you around everywhere you go, he is really caring and loves when you rub his belly, unfortunately I can’t take care of him no more because I don’t have time anymore and because of some of his behavior issues. I hope camilo finds a good loving home and gets all the attention he needs

Story
** Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea ** Meet Haengsoon! Your Future Best Friend Haengsoon is an incredibly adaptable dog who quickly made herself at home in her foster environment. She’s the kind of dog who can just lay back and relax without a fuss. Haengsoon adores people and is full of affection, often following her human around like a little shadow. While she’s not a fan of other dogs, she’s been well-trained with basic commands like sit, stay, lie down, come, no, and paw. She’s already accustomed to wearing a harness and enjoys grooming sessions, including brushing. Haengsoon has no interest in trash or human food, so you won't have to worry about her getting into mischief. Though she does shed a bit, her potty training is flawless—she knows how to use both the bathroom and pee pads perfectly. Haengsoon absolutely loves her walks and is always excited to go outside. She’s also a quiet companion who doesn’t bark when the doorbell rings or when people come inside. However, she may occasionally bark briefly if she hears sudden noises outside the door. Haengsoon isn’t a fan of having her nails trimmed, but she doesn’t suffer from separation anxiety, making her an easy-going and independent dog. If you’re looking for a loyal and loving companion who’s ready to fill your life with joy, Haengsoon might be the perfect match for you!
