Story

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to NEW YORK💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet Mina💞 💙 Adogs Center Account: @_adogs_everyday 1.) Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped and heartworm negative. * Has some hyperpigmentation on her skin, possibly due to irritation caused by allergies, but she has no health issues! 2.) Rescue Story * Mina was brought to the Gimje City Shelter and was very scared of people for unknown reasons. Due to this, she was at risk of being put on the euthanasia list, which led us to urgently rescue her. 3.) Basic Information * With People: Tends to be wary of strangers, especially when someone unfamiliar enters her personal space, like her kennel or the playground area. However, when treats are involved, she becomes more active and circles around with interest. Once on a leash, she becomes a bit more reserved but still allows physical contact. With familiar people, she’s quiet and gentle — she doesn’t avoid them or show any signs of aggression. Doesn't refuse full-body touch, though she’s not the type to particularly enjoy it either. Is a cautious little friend who shows affection in subtle ways, like gently touching noses when greeting or receiving treats. * With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs. Has a lot of curiosity towards new dogs and greets them with sniffs. Doesn’t fight and gets along well with familiar dogs, while she doesn’t pay particular attention to other dogs. * Separation Anxiety: Not confirmed since she’s living in a communal environment at our center. Sleeps in a kennel and relaxes even when alone at our center. May need training from scratch if she lives in a family home. * Potty Training: Goes outdoor potty while residing at our center. Prefers potty outside but makes occasional mistakes in her kennel while trying to hold in it. * Hygiene: Stays still while enjoying human touch. Accepts baths and brushing nicely. Is patient enough to have her nail trimmed once her paws are firmly held. * Walks: Isn’t used to walks and finds them awkward. Recently through training, she walks well in areas she’s comfortable with but pulls on the leash in areas where she’s uncomfortable. Follows along well if she walks with another helper dog. Doesn’t chase other animals on walks. * Barks when she’s wary of strangers and she wants something, especially when she gets impatient and wants it faster! * Prefers treats over toys. * Is scared of uncomfortable places, people and collars.

Story

Toby was a stray that I found when he was about 5 months old. He was a very smelly and emaciated puppy but had such a bold and fun personality. I fell in love with him instantly and had to help him. He is now 6 years old and still has that same playful enthusiasm. Every morning first thing toby does before heading outside, is grabbing a toy. He is a high maintenance dog because he has environmental and food allergies. He needs bi-monthly vet visits for medication.Im looking for someone who can afford the care for him and able to deal with his high and LOVING energy drive. Toby is a cuddle bug as much as he loves to play. Being the true boy he is, roughhousing is also something he loves along with FOOD. A food motivated, high maintenance, bratty dog Toby is. I hope you can learn to love each part of him as much as I have over these years. Take a chance on my boy❤️

Story

Are you looking for a quiet girl? If so, China would like to introduce herself. She’s approximately 3 years old and about 50 pounds. Though thanks to her love for food and treats, she could probably benefit from losing a few of those pounds! She’s pretty short and has a unique crooked tail. China adores everyone that she meets. And getting back to that quiet thing - she really doesn’t bark much, if at all. She is house trained and also walks well on a leash. She pals around with a male dog that is her BFF but no cats for China please. China was pregnant and wandered onto a property to have her babies. The property owners let her stay until the babies were weaned and then they kept her babies and dumped her. She ended up in the shelter and was pulled out by one of our rescue partners. She is currently in foster in TX but would love to find a forever home. If adopted, she can come to NJ on our next transport. Personality: quiet, loving Good with: people of all ages (including kids) and dogs. NO cats. Training: house trained, leash trained Estimated date of birth: February 2023 Weight: 50 pounds Medical: vetted, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped Location: Currently located with a foster in Texas, but if adopted, will come to the NJ area on our next transport.

Phineas

American Staffordshire Terrier Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 8 yrs 5 mos

Long Island City, NY

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Phineas! This gorgeous boy, once found as a stray, is hoping to find his second chance. Phineas lives for toys—if there’s a toy around, Phin’s either playing with it or has it tucked under his paw like a treasure. He’s treat-motivated, curious, and loves his walks, always staying alert and connected to the person holding the leash. Phin is strong and would do best with a handler who has experience with similar breeds and can provide him with the structure he needs to shine. He has shown some (manageable) reactivity on leash but responds well to treats and training. We haven't seen him interact with other dogs much, but he seems selective about canine companions. He's a low-medium energy dog who relishes playing fetch and going on hikes before curling up with his favorite toy and sleeping the afternoon away. Phineas is at our Rescue Center in Verplanck waiting to meet you. All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. Please note that the listed location for this dog may not be accurate due to technical limitations of this database and we have transportation options available within 6 hours of NYC (so don't let location hold you back)! Interested in fostering or adopting? Need more info on this dog? The first step in the process is filling out an application on our website.
