Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to Seattle💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Hodol❤️ 💙 Adogs Center Updates: @_adogs_ 1⃣ Health Condition * Neuter: Incomplete. * Others: Microchipped. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Hodol was living at the Gimje City Shelter. He was waiting at the shelter with a smile on his face despite the weather getting colder, but no one stepped up to adopt him. The shelter had poor conditions, with infectious diseases spreading and poor heating, so Adogs urgently rescued him. 3⃣ Basic Information ❗️As a puppy, he may need training in areas such as separation anxiety, potty habits, biting, nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling and barking. ❗️It is difficult to predict his shedding and growth size because his parents are unknown. * With People: Is a little shy but is docile and stays in your arms when picked up. Once he becomes familiar with someone, he wags his tail like a helicopter and runs around happily just seeing them come near. * With Dogs: Plays well with the other dogs at our center. * With Cats: Hasn’t met cats yet. * Separation Anxiety: Unknown, since he’s living in a group setting at our center. Will need training from scratch. * Potty Training: Does fairly well with potty pads. May need to be re-trained in a new environment. * Grooming: Although he doesn’t like it, he’s docile while getting his nails trimmed with his belly-side up. * Walks: Hasn’t been on walks since his vaccinations aren’t complete. * Car Sickness: Didn’t show signs of car sickness on short-distance rides. * Biting: Has not bitten. However, he may nibble or chew since he’s still a teething puppy. * Barking: Sometimes whines a bit if he seems someone outside his kennel. * Likes: Has a great appetite and loves food. * Dislikes: Although he is docile when picked up, he seems a bit uncomfortable with it since he yawns (a sign that a dog isn’t comfortable).

Needs a patient family who can wait for him to feel safe. * With Dogs: Gets along very well with his friends at our center. * With Cats: Tends to chase them, so caution is required. * Separation Anxiety: Unknown because he currently lives in a group setting at our center. * Potty Training: Unknown, but he currently prefers outdoor potty breaks. * Walks: Showed great walking skills during his time at the training center. * Hygiene: Was very well-behaved during grooming and hygiene care at the training center. * Because he is fearful, he may try to nip if forced into something. A gentle approach is essential. * Absolutely loves treats! * Is still scared of human touch. Needs time to learn that hands are for love, not for fear.

Story
Jason Momoa is a looker, just like his name sake- and thankfully, he's just a great a dog as he is good looking! He is slightly smaller than your typical American Akita but he's got that Akita mindset. This means he can be a little reserved when meeting new people, but as he's young and smart, he's learned quickly that people bring the fun (and food)- so he makes friends quickly now. He also loves to play and along with training, these are the keys to his heart! He already knows quite a few commands and walks well on a leash- but also loves to run and play in the yard. He plays his own version of fetch which mostly involves running around with the ball- not so much bringing it back- but he loves this game! Typical for his breed, he can be slightly protective and this is why we require someone with previous "power breed" or Akita experience. Akitas are typically not first time dogs and they need boundaries and structure that most first time owners do not understand (which is exactly why he is with us). Jason is crate trained and housebroken. He would do best in a home with no children. Home cannot have other male dogs, and/or smaller breeds. Jason is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. ADOPTION DONATION: $600.00. Your adoption donation goes toward the cost of this vet care as well as transportation and general care costs. All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and Martingale collar. Each dog also receives a "Tour Gear Bag" full of brochures, coupons, and supplies for your new pup! Please visit our website www.motleyzoorescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.  MAGGIE is a people&#226&#128&#145loving sweetheart who absolutely soaks up attention. She has that classic Malamute mix of affection and independence—one moment she’s leaning in for belly rubs, and the next she’s striking a regal pose, surveying her kingdom like the queen she knows she is. She loves being with her human pack, enjoying pets, cuddles, and all the affection you’re willing to give. Daily walks are one of her favorite activities—she enjoys exploring the neighborhood and taking in all the sights and smells. She’s also a great travel buddy and rides beautifully in the car, always ready to join you on your next adventure. MAGGIE has done well with older kids, but she does like to put her paws up on people when she’s excited, so a home without small children is best. When it comes to other dogs, she can be selective—she prefers calm, larger dogs and appreciates slow introductions. After a good play session, she’s perfectly content to head home for a well&#226&#128&#145earned nap. In true queen fashion, MAGGIE prefers to rule her home with confidence and grace. She wants reassurance that she’ll get attention when she wants it, and she’ll reward you with loyalty and love. Her ideal home includes a big, fenced yard where she can relax, enjoy some quiet time, and keep watch over her domain. Indoors, she loves lounging near her people, making sure everyone is safe and accounted for. MAGGIE is currently being fostered in Manson, WA, and her foster is willing to transport her for meet&#226&#128&#145and&#226&#128&#145greets within a few hours’ drive. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion with a dash of queenly flair, MAGGIE may be the perfect addition to your family.

The activists came and saved me and I can't wait to come to America and find a family to love and care for me forever.  Approximately over a million dogs a year are slaughtered to be eaten.  I am so lucky to get a one-way ticket to Seattle to find my new family.  Take me on car rides, walks in the park, and I will become your best friend.  I get along well with people of all ages, gentle kids, and other dogs.  I will do best with a loving family that can give me lots of love, and affection!  On all overseas adoption, we highly recommend our pet rescue dog trainer who will help train your new pup.  My adoption fee of $1,295 will cover my spay/neuter, DA2PP shots, Rabies, Bordetella, Deworm, Heart Worm Test, Microchip, Boarding Fees, Health Certificate and airline transport cost from Korea to Seattle.   A GPS tracker or Apple Air Tag is required for all adopted dogs.

Story
Hi there, My name is Momo and I can`t wait to meet you!I weigh about 50 lbs and am considered a `large breed` dog. My caregivers have given me a lot of special attention here at the shelter and I`ve been gaining a lot of weight since coming in! I am so lucky to have such an awesome foster family!I am a very smart dog! At the shelter I am practicing how to sit and come when called. My husky tendencies mean that while I`m incredibly smart, I`m also a quite stubborn, so I need someone who can work with me patiently while I pick up new tricks.I am an affectionate lovebug and love getting brushed and going for walks. I love my people and the attention that they give to me! I don`t mind hanging out by myself, however. As a Husky, I have my zoomies, but if you stay calm around me, I`ll match the energy. I do best when I have lots of exercise and something to keep my mind busy.My caregivers have noticed that I seem to do well with other large dogs. I am barrier reactive - sort of like getting startled when the doorbell rings! - when meeting them, but once in the yard with them I calm down and do better. I do better with another calm dog that is willing to give me my own space and respect my boundries, who is good at reading body language. I have had fantastic dog-to-dog interactions here at RASKC and think I`d like having an easy going pal to hang out with! Since the shelter can be a loud environment, I am currently in a foster home where I can get out of my kennel more and play, play, play! If you want to meet me please fill out a foster interest form! In my foster home I get along with men, women and children - I`m very lucky to be with such fantastic humans!I am an adaptable dog who loves to go with the flow! I am outgoing and carefree, and I just can`t wait to find my forever home. Could yours be the one? You can visit me at the Pet Adoption Center on weekdays from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The Pet Adoption Center is located at 21615 64th Ave S, Kent, WA 98032.Come and visit me today, I`d love to go home with you!

Hi, my name is Casey and I am available for adoption!I am considered a Husky mix and am a large breed dog. I know I may not be fluffy, but just look at my beautiful fur colors! Aren`t I a pretty boy?I am a big, sweet, and spunky boy with a zest for life and a whole lot of love to give. I`m playful, happy, and also enjoy being affectionate once I settle in! I would love a home that`s eager to give me all the love and attention I deserve. I am very smart and treat motivated - I already know how to sit and would love to learn more tricks with you! I am also learning a ton about walking on a leash properly and I`m making huge strides in my leash manners!Because I can get excited and forget my size, I would do best in a home with older children. Can you blame me? It`s just so hard to contain my enthusiasm! :)I have previously lived with other dogs and might enjoy a dog sibling. I would prefer a home without cats or other small animals.I was honored as Pet of the Week on December 30, 2025, which means my adoption fee is reduced. I can`t wait to meet you!Because I tend to get really excited meeting other dogs and strangers, my caretakers moved me back to a quieter walking hall so I can be less stressed. When coming to meet me, be sure to let the check-in person know you`d like to meet me! They`d be super happy to bring me out to the yard for a meet-and-greet.You can visit me at the Pet Adoption Center on weekdays from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The Pet Adoption Center is located at 21615 64th Ave S, Kent, WA 98032.Come and visit me today, I`d love to go home with you!
