Here's what the humans have to say about me:
**Foster to Forever fee effective through August 11, 2024**
Hi! My name is Fritz, and I am in Los Angeles waiting for my forever home! I was rescued from the dog meat trade in South Korea by the DoVE Project. My fate would have been to live in fear and distress, watching dogs being led to slaughter for human consumption. DoVE Project heard about me, and now I am looking for my forever family!
ID/NAME: CARE23-058 / Fritz
SEX/WEIGHT/AGE: Male / 37.5 lbs / 1 year 7 months (as of March 1st)
BIRTH DATE: July 1, 2022
BREED: Jindo mix
VACCINATIONS/SPAY/NEUTER/HEALTH: Vaccinations complete / Neutered / Healthy
BEHAVIOR:
Fritz is. 2 year old Jindo/Husky mix with gorgeous Husky eyes but lacks the vocal gene! This handsome boy survived daily beatings from an abusive owner in S. Korea. When he arrived, he was very shut down but with the help of his fosters, his gentle, sweet nature now shines! He enjoys his circle of friends, both humans and dogs, and loves to go on outings, especially to the beach!
SIBLINGS/FAMILY: Unknown
BACKGROUND:
Fritz was found wandering the streets after enduring daily beatings from an abusive owner. Having escaped a harsh owner, he was found by a kind local in the neighborhood who offered temporary shelter but was unable to provide long-term care due to their health challenges. Efforts to involve local authorities were unsuccessful, and eventually the local contacted Care. Fritz was rescued in May 2023.
ABOUT JINDOS
Jindos are known for their fierce loyalty, high intelligence, rarely barking, and playful nature. They make great indoor family dogs, as Jindos are clean and easily housetrained, and are faithful to family members. They are also mid-level active and love being socialized at dog parks, going on hikes, and joining the family on trips.
ABOUT OUR DOGS
DoVE dogs come from a traumatic background such as dog meat farms and slaughterhouses. While many of our dogs acclimate within a few months with consistency, structure, and patience, some of our more sensitive dogs can take longer to rehabilitate. It's important to note that these sensitive dogs are even more attuned to human emotions and behavior, making for a deeper connection human-dog connection. DoVE Project is committed to helping our adopters desensitize and socialize our dog meat trade survivors.
*********************************
DoVE Project operates a shelter in South Korea, where our dogs stay until they are matched with an adopter. In the US, our dogs stay in foster homes or in boarding, as we do not have a physical facility. These dogs are identified with "in LA" in their names.
Please note that we only adopt our pups in the Southern California area. Please check our website for more information regarding our adoption process, our mission, and adoption application: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-process
