Meet Ddobok❤️
Ddobok was startled by thunder and fled his home, eventually getting hit by a car and taken to a hospital. After several indecisions by his owners regarding surrender, they finally gave him up, leading to his current life in the shelter where he is well-cared for.

* With People: Ddobok loves human touch! He's initially cautious and barks at strangers in unfamiliar spaces, but if you let him approach you, he'll warm up to you soon enough! He's a lovely dog who just loves to be around familiar people and shows them lots of affection! 🩷
* With Dogs: He gets along great with his doggy friends! He sniffs and gently approaches new dogs, and once he gets to know them, he plays with them on the playbou! He gets along great with bigger dogs, and even better with dogs of his own size 😍.
* With Cats: When he sees a cat, his excitement level increases and he tends to chase it. It's manageable, but he can run off at a moment's notice, so you need to be careful when walking him.

* Separation Anxiety: He waited well alone during his stay at the foster family’s house!
* Potty Training: He's potty trained both outdoors and indoors, and is 100% pee pad trained indoors!
* Hygiene: Not a fan of baths but tolerates them well and accepts being dried.
* Walking: He has a high level of initial excitement on walks, and needs consistent walk training as he tends to pull on the leash! He is interested in dropped food and moving animals, so he needs to be watched.
* Car Sickness: Sometimes pants heavily in the car due to mild car sickness.
* Mastered commands: "Sit," "House," "Wait," "Paw," "High Five," "Lie Down," "V."
* Barks at unfamiliar visitors and when requesting something with a loud "Woof!"
* Has a strong appetite, necessitating feeding separation from other dogs.
* Frightened by the sound of car doors and motorcycles, but ongoing desensitization training is helping.
* May bark or lightly nip when startled by sudden movements or gestures.
