Story
Meet Panda – Gentle Soul Seeking a Safe Place to Land  Panda is a 1.5-year-old male, weighing about 30 pounds, with a heart as tender as his name suggests. He’s in a foster in KY teaching him to trust and getting over his shy ways. There’s a quiet sweetness in him that’s just waiting for the right person to help it shine through. Panda is GOOD with other dogs and cats, making him a wonderful candidate for a multi-pet household. He’s been treated for his skin and health—he’s been seen for mange and is currently being treated with dewormer, Bravecto chews, and a medicated shampoo. He has come a long away. He’s also received his Rabies and Da2PP vaccines, setting him up for a healthier future. He has not yet been neutered. Panda would thrive in a calm, patient home where he can take his time learning to trust and feel safe. If you’re someone who can see the beauty in a shy pup and are ready to give Panda the love and consistency he needs, he could be your next loyal companion. To apply to adopt Panda, go to www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application on a computer or laptop.If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!

She is gorgeous, milk chocolate in color, with hints of red, and white markings. She currently weighs about 65 pounds. Molly is incredibly sweet and loving. She is searching for a loving family that is able to provide lots of love, cuddles, and activity. Molly will do best in a home with a fenced in year so she can enjoy the outdoors.

She does get very interested when she sees another dog, and she typically barks. This is not an aggressive bark.    About Molly: Spayed UTD on vaccines.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 Meet Gucci❤️ 💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_everyday 1⃣ Health Condition * Spayed. * Microchipped, and heartworm negative. 2⃣ Rescue Story * Adogs got an emergency call from “Happy Dogs Home” for an urgent rescue. The elderly owner who was caring for many dogs alone had to be hospitalized in hospice care, so the dogs were suddenly left without anyone. It had just rained the day before, so everyone was worried about their health. Adogs director went to Yongin in person and rescued Gucci, who had just given birth, along with her puppies. 3⃣ Basic Information * With people: Is okay with being touched but still shy and cautious around people. If she feels nervous or uncomfortable, she might open her mouth defensively, but she doesn't bite. * With dogs: Gets along well with other dogs, even new ones! Will even play with canine friends she likes. No issues with living with other dogs. * With cats: Doesn’t really react when she sees cats on walks. * Separation Anxiety: Not confirmed since she lives in a group setting at our center. * Potty Training: Currently only goes potty outside at our center. * Hygiene: Is scared of being touched at first and may try to run away, but once she calms down, she’s okay with brushing and nail trimming. * Walks: May try to pull away from people in the beginning, but once comfortable, she walks nicely. Doesn’t get excited when she sees other animals like dogs, cats, or birds. 4⃣ Special Notes * If she feels scared or uncomfortable, she might move her mouth toward you defensively, but she’s never bitten anyone. * Sometimes tries to bolt during walks, so using a double leash is a must!

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 Meet Lian💞 💙 Lian's Update Account: @adogs.imbo 1. Health Condition * Neutered. * Microchipped and heartworm to be retested in August 2025. * At the time of rescue, he had severe mange and had to get shots for treatment. It was so severe that his skin was peeling, he had a lot of dandruff, and his fur was falling out so he must be brushed regularly. He’s getting coconut oil rubs to help with his dandruff and it’s working little by little. Regular care is needed. 2. Rescue Story * Lian was a stray dog before entering the Jeonju City Shelter. Unfortunately, the shelter closed down, leaving him and his companion, Riel in Adogs at risk of euthanasia. With time running out, Adogs stepped in to rescue them both. 3. Basic Information * With People: Is scared of strangers and tries to leave. It’s better to give time for Lian to adjust at his own speed rather than approach him first. With familiar people, he wags his tail to say hello and allows pets. * With Dogs: Doesn’t approach first. Avoids other dogs or growls at them defensively at times. Doesn’t growl at familiar dogs but doesn’t play with them either. * Separation Anxiety: Stays alone very well without anxiety! * Potty Training: Usually uses pads with 80% accuracy but may make potty mistakes when he’s in a new environment. Has a tendency to pee all at once after holding it. * Walks: Is scared of walks so he’s being taken outside while being held. Needs training to get used to walks. * Hygiene: Is scared of baths. Is good with brushing but he’s scared of the dryer so he’s being dried with a towel. * Car Sickness: No motion sickness! Rides calmly and rests during travel! * Biting: When another dog is bothering him, he nips defensively and growls but isn’t aggressive. * Dislikes: Has become desesitized to loud noises in the home but he has a fearful personality so he gets surprised by sudden noises and loud movements. When being forced to do something, he may avoid being touched or hide in a corner for a few days so it’s important to introduce new things slowly with him.

Meet Chip! This handsome boy is being fostered in East TN Athens. Out of state welcome. The adoption fee listed on adopt a pet includes transport to your area. We use Rescue Riders for all our transport needs because they are the best. Chip is such a sweet handsome boy. He is very affectionate and playful. He is a young boy almost a year old and curious as they come. He had the head tilt move to expert level. He wags his super short tail all the time. He’s a happy go lucky kind of boy. He was going to be euthanized due to time and space at our local shelter so we pulled him out to save him. He was adopted and then returned we were told he had some food guarding tendencies. Well we don’t see this at all in fact we accidentally forgotten on a few occasions about that and petted him while eating or moved his bowl while he was eating and he could have cared less. We are not sure if this was directed towards other dogs or not but we do not feed them together here. He has also not been possessive of any toys at all. He plays well with other dogs large and small. He is crate trained and is doing excellent at house training. He is still just a young pup so he would need to be treated like a puppy. Don’t leave things out for him to get into. Take him out to potty in his new home and praise him for going on the new yard etc. he’s a great dog and will make a lucky family very happy. We think he would do best with older kids because he does play pretty hard and would knock the smaller ones around. Apply at petpath.org.
