My personality

My story

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

** Current location: in a foster home in South Korea **

Meet Silvia👋 Silvia’s story began when she was found wandering the streets of Paju at just three months old. In March 2022, she and her sisters ended up in a high-kill shelter. Thankfully, they were rescued just in time! While one of her sisters had a chance to stay in a foster home, Silvia spent over two years in a crowded shelter, waiting for her chance at a forever home. Now, she‘s eager to finally find a family of her own!

• Personality: Sweet, Cheerful, Chill
Silvia may be a little shy at first, but she quickly warms up and has a playful, cheerful personality! She can get along with men, as long as they approach her slowly. She loves squeezing between people’s legs for some extra affection! She can be a bit barky when she’s unsure and may nip if startled☝️ / Her energy level is moderate—she enjoys playing but also loves her naps.

• Affinity with
- Dogs: Silvia plays well with other dogs at the shelter!
- Cats: Not tested
- Adults/Kids: She may be a big shy at first but becomes friendly to anyone including men quickly / Not tested with children.

• Walking Manners: Despite her limited experience with walks, Silvia does amazingly well on a leash and follows along nicely!

• Housetrained: She‘ll need work on potty training. We recommend regular walks to encourage outdoor potty habits over using pee pads.

• Baths/Brushing: As for grooming, Silvia’s a star—she’s great with baths and brushing!

• Car Sickness: Not experienced with cars yet.

• Separation Anxiety: none

• Barks/Howls: She occasionally barks at unfamiliar/scary things for her.

• Appetite/Food Allergies: Eats good / No food allergies

• Shedding level (1~10): 5-6

• Likes/Dislikes: She likes to go under people’s legs! Also, she loves to play with tennis balls! / She is not a big fan of being confined in a small space.
