My story

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

Meet Esther! Esther is a 4-year-old Jindo/terrier mix rescued from a dog meat farm in Jeonju, South Korea, a few years ago by our rescue partners. Esther bravely gave birth to a litter of several puppies who were adopted in NYC. Now, it's sweet Esther's turn for a forever home!

On September 5th, 2024, Esther was one of 38 dogs who participated in the Guinness World Record challenge for the largest pack walk—and they successfully broke the record. Esther is truly a superstar! Check out the video here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C_iOpiCytFb/?img_index=1

More about this rescue

Korean K9 Rescue is a volunteer-driven No-Kill dog rescue organization based in Queens, New York and Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, South Korea As a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization, we transport homeless and mistreated dogs from South Korea and place them with loving forever families, primarily in New York City, Boston, and Los Angeles. Because of an unfortunate stigma surrounding mixed-breed dogs–and the dog meat trade that persists within the country–many dogs in South Korea are unlikely to be adopted at home and are in grave danger of being euthanized.

We believe that all dogs should be happy and free. With our partners in Korea, we are stepping in to help at-risk dogs live healthy, happy, long lives. Please join us in our mission!
