My story

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

**🐾 Meet Ricky! 🐾**

Hello, hoomans! I'm **Ricky**, a lovable 5-year-old Retriever mix with a beautiful brown coat! 🐶 Weighing 28 kg, I'm a big, affectionate boy looking for my forever home. Here’s a bit about me:

💖 I'm very affectionate and love to rub against people, whether I know you or not. I'm all about the pets and cuddles!

🐾 You can lift me by putting your arm under my belly. Once we become friends, I'll happily show my belly for some rubs, and I'll even show my belly to new friends.

🐕 I greet strange dogs but don't really play with them. I need a bit of caution around new dogs because I might get defensive if provoked, especially with toys or snacks involved.

😺 When I see a cat during walks, I stay focused on my human friend. I'm quite jealous of other dogs and might need to be your one and only pup.

🌳 I have a high energy level and need plenty of outdoor activities. After a fun time outside, I love to rest quietly at home.

🚶‍♂️ I have plenty of walking experience and follow people well without pulling on the leash. I'm calm when put in a kennel and don't guard my food against people or other dogs.

🚗 I know how to get in and out of a car by myself, and I generally do my business outside.

I have a strong Retriever personality—very affectionate and not wary of strangers. I was abandoned as a puppy and spent a long time in a shelter, so I didn't learn how to play with other dogs. I started training when I was 5 years old, but I still try to bite other dogs when saying hi. My trainer says I'm not aggressive; I just want all the attention for myself. So, it's best to walk me a lot and give me lots of love instead of introducing me to other dogs.

If you're looking for a loving, loyal, and active companion, I'm your guy! Let's meet and start our journey together. 🏡💕

With love and wags,
Ricky 🐾

More about this rescue

We are against the slaughter and consumption of dogs in Korea.
In Korea, there are many dogs that are kept in overcrowded cages in dog-meat facilities. They are sent to the market after being tortured to death. Although the consumption of dog meat is increasingly controversial and the vast majority of younger generations do not believe in dog meat, there are still many dogs that need to be rescued from farms and streets on which they have been abandoned/mistreated by humans.
