My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

story:
Thank you for interested in adopting Buddy. Please know that Buddy is an international rescue. When your application is approved, you will need to pick him up from the airport - such as SFO, SEA, JFK, LAX, ONT, IAH, etc. International adoption is not a complicated process and we've done the process many years. We would be happy to explain to you how the process works.

Buddy is not high in energy level and likes to take a slow walk, taking time to observe and sniff other things. When he was a puppy, he was small and weak and was bullied by his siblings. He gets nervous towards other dogs. He is not comfortable when the other dog tries to dominate and when the other dog has a young puppy energy so much that it can annoy others. However, once he becomes friendly with other dog, he gets along very well. He stayed in the shelter for a long time so he lacks socialization but he is gentle and careful once he decides to be a friend with the people and the dogs. Now, he is under socialization training. He has not met children yet but is generally calm and good with people. The foster believes buddy is calm and friendly with anyone and so can be with children. Buddy is nervous but stays calm in the crate. He behaves well when he is alone in home. He is under leash training. If he gets scared he just stops and refuses to move. When he gets scared during walks, he leans on the people next to him and depends on the person for protection. With something he has not eaten before, he doesn’t eat it right away. He rubs it on his body first. After he tries it one or two times, he doesn’t do it anymore. Lacking various experiences, he gets scared easily but is also good at overcoming them. If you’re interested in adopting Buddy, feel free to contact us for more info! Thank you.

More about this rescue

We are a small group of pet rescuers in CA and WA/OR from Taiwan.
We rescue dogs and cats that needs help around us.
Save a life don't need a reason, it's just a beautiful things that everyone should do.
Seeing those once starved,
maltreated and homeless dogs transforming into confident, lively fur babies is what propels us. Finding a loving, forever home for the rescued dogs has been our ultimate goal.
---
For over 10 years, our foundation has been providing rescue dogs for international adoption to families in cities such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Vancouver. After the application and approval process, we fly the dogs with volunteers to the desired destination for the completion of your adoption.

Formosa Mountain Dog (FMD) is a type of Taiwanese mixed breed. Most of it is Labrador or shepherd and Taiwan dog mixd breed. The rescues are usually abandoned, abused, and/or without a home. We take them in, provide them with a complete health check up, and spay and neuter as needed. Their information is then posted on our websites and social media, ready to be adopted.

You will see that most of our dogs are still in Taiwan. Only a few are local. The process of adoption takes careful consideration of the application and understanding of the environment to which we will send the adoptees. Currently, we do not have enough foster homes for an intermediary home, so we have to make sure there is a home for the rescues before we send them overseas.

As the dogs await their forever homes, we will continuously update their growth through photos and videos. This helps to provide the adopting families with more understanding of the temperament of the dogs to be ready for their adoption. Finally, after 14 hours of air travel, with the aid of our volunteers, the adopting family (you) will just need to arrive at the airport to meet your new family member!
