Story
Arthur is a sweet, older guy who came to our shelter as a stray. We estimate he's about 10+ years old, and he weighs 75 pounds. Arthur has leaned some things over the years, including how to sit, down, and shake for treats. He has been friendly when meeting people at the shelter, and seems tolerant of most other dogs. Arthur must meet any resident dog(s) in a potential new home, to make sure they get along. * Arthur has tested positive for Lyme Disease, and is being treated with antibiotics. * Arthur qualifies for the shelter's Adult Companion Program, for adopters aged 50 and up.

Story
**Current Location: in a local shelter in South Korea** Rescue Story : Say hi to SoHee👋 a friendly lovable girl with cute freckles! SoHee is one of the three siblings rescued from a dog meat farm in South Korea at just 3 months old in April 2019. With their lives luckily saved, the little puppies were brought to a private shelter but suffered from parvovirus at such a young age. SoHee fully recovered after treatment but has never been allowed to live in a loving home so far. Despite her not-so-bright past, she is still one of the most friendly and cheerful dogs in the shelter. We don’t want her to spend her whole life in this shelter without knowing what is like to be loved by her own family in a loving home. This sweetest girl is ready to warm your heart and home! Personality: Sohee is known for being friendly, affectionate, and docile demeanor, especially around people including strangers! She would thrive on love and affection, making her the perfect companion for anyone seeking a loyal and lovely fur buddy. She has a moderate level of energy. Affinity with: - Cats: Not tested - Dogs: Generally good with other dogs, but she does not get along with some. - Adults/Kids: Friendly with adults including men / Good with kids that try to pet her on a walk. Shedding : 5-7 Food Allergies : No. Walking Manner : Very good, walking wonderfully on a leash. Housetrained : Sohee assumably would use the bathroom outdoors only as she currently lives in a shelter. Bathing/Brushing : Good with brushing / Not certain about bathing, but considering her mild nature, she would be fine after some experiences. Bark or Howl : No Car Rides : Generally good despite not having many experiences Likes : Sohee loves hoomans and treats!

Story
CHANCE – have you ever seen a more handsome fella? Just a few things about this sweet guy. The vet believes that Chance is between 18mo - 2yrs old and weighs 59lbs. • He is heart worm negative and neutered. •He is super sweet and gentle - wants to cuddle and be near his person. •He is dog-friendly (the foster doesn’t have cats, so we are not certain if he’s cat-friendly) •He is people-friendly to everyone he has met. Foster does not have small children, but he has been fine around children on walks. Due to his size and youth, he might knock down small children, but he is not aggressive. •He is house broken. Even in the rain and snow he has let us know he needs to go out. •He is a little timid to new people at first, but warms up quickly. •He very rarely barks. •He has learned to sit, walk on a leash, and “wait” for his food bowl to be put down. •He is very food motivated, so can be easily trained with treat rewards. He is not reactive when eating. •He can be possessive over certain toys with a low, warning growl if another dog tries to take it from him. •He is not interested in fetching a ball, but loves chew toys and antlers. • He can be very active, but is also happy cuddled up with his person. •He would do great in a house with another dog, but would be fine as an only dog also. Once adopted Chance will travel via private transport (transport cost is $160.00) to a location closest to you. If you would like to make this pretty boy part of your family please follow the link below to our application. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9
