Ellio is a sweet male 7lb maltipoo age approx 4 years old.
Despite his traumatic past, he is sweet and spunky. Rescued from a horrific, illegal puppy mill in Busan, South Korea, in October, Ellio is one of almost 600 dogs saved through the efforts of Korean K9 Rescue and our incredible partners. Now thriving in foster care, Ellio is looking for his forever family. Watch his rescue here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pH4y4l8j2RE
Adopting a puppy mill survivor like Ellio comes with unique rewards and responsibilities. He has shown incredible resilience and a bright spirit, but dogs from these backgrounds often require patience and time to decompress and adjust to a loving home. While Ellio is currently healthy and has received excellent veterinary care, potential adopters should be aware of the genetic predispositions common in dogs from such environments, including luxating patellas, heart conditions, dental issues, etc, that could arise later in life, and prepare both financially and mentally to help Ellio live an everyday happy life.
If you're ready to open your heart and home to Ellio you'll gain a loyal companion who thrives on love and care. Apply to adopt Ellio and start the journey of a lifetime together!
