My story

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

▶ (relationship with dogs) :
Because her tension is low, her active friend is alert but not aggressive.
She is quiet and curious about her friend who has a similar tendency.
She is unilaterally bitten by an aggressive friend during a walk and does not act defensively, so she needs to be careful when bonding together.

▶ (relationship with cats) :
She is just curious with cats and doesn’t have aggression of them.

▶ (relationship with people) :
She is quite afraid of men and seems likely to have been abused before she was rescued.
She has no aggression towards people, but she is shy at first.

▶ (house trained) : house broken

▶ (walks on leash) :
She prefers to walk only on quiet and familiar paths.
Her anxiety is quite high, so she frequently looks back during walks to check on people behind her. She often gets startled by small noises, sometimes suddenly bolting, which has almost caused her leash to slip out of the handler's hands.
When she pulls on the leash and moves ahead during walks, if the handler stops walking, she no longer tries to go ahead and instead walks slowly afterward.

▶ (special notes) :

She tends to experience motion sickness and vomits when riding in a car. (it is much better than her first experience of car riding) She has no separation anxiety and rests comfortably in her designated spot at home. Since her spaying, she has been in good condition and eats her food well. In Gona's case, she had difficulty adjusting to indoor life, so the focus was on building a stable bond with her caregiver rather than training in etiquette.
Caution is needed when getting out of the car, as she sometimes jumps out suddenly.

Additional adoption info

All our dogs fly from Korea to the US when their adoptions are finalized. Therefore, we can not provide meet and greets. All adopters must agree to surrender the pets BACK to Welcome Paws if the adopter no longer wants the pet. All adopters must agree to provide periodic update of the adopted pet. Instagram account is highly recommended. All adopters must sign up for GPS tracker for 6 months to avoid losing pets.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs fly from Korea to the US when their adoptions are finalized. Therefore, we can not provide the "meet and greet." Multiple video clips will be provided and we will help you walk through the steps to reassure the adopted dog and the adopter are the best match for each other. Some dogs are available for meet and greet if the dogs are fostered in the US.

More about this rescue

WELCOME PAWS: KOREAN DOG RESCUE is a registered nonprofit charity organization run by all-volunteers who are dedicated to the animal welfares.

We rescue stray, neglected and abused animals, city sheltered animals and dog meat trade animals in South Korea. All of our pets are cared for by loving foster homes and receiving complete medical cares before they are ready to meet their FURever families. We find them best fitted home in the United States, Canada, and South Korea.

Furthering our cause is the most important goal of our organization. We seek to support, empower, and provide high quality resources and educations to our adopters. Our success isn’t measured in terms of wealth or profit margin, but by the value we provide to those we serve.
