My story

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

Meet Hwani, a lively 4-year-old Border Collie with a striking black-and-white coat, weighing 19kg. Currently in New Westminster, BC.



Rescued from a euthanasia, Hwani is now looking for a loving home where he can thrive. Hwani is a social charmer who adores people, whether they’re familiar faces or total strangers. He’s quick to approach, snuggle up, and enjoy being petted by men and women alike. Although he hasn’t met children under 13, his sweet, approachable nature hints that he’d do well. He’s even comfortable being gently lifted by placing your arms under his belly. When it comes to canine friends, Hwani is equally friendly. He happily greets dogs of all sizes and invites them to play. Even if another dog gets a little too rowdy, Hwani is quick to avoid conflict and keep things peaceful. During walks, he may curiously glance at cats or other small animals, but with a bit of guidance, he refocuses easily.



With a moderate energy level, Hwani loves outdoor adventures but also enjoys lounging at home. On walks, his excitement might get the better of him at first, as he’s been used to running alongside his previous owner. If restrained, he may express his feelings with a soft whimper, playful leash nibbling, or a quick scratch, but he quickly adapts and follows his handler’s lead.  
Hwani is incredibly easygoing when it comes to food and toys, showing no guarding behaviour toward people or other dogs. He does bark when confined but is otherwise well-mannered. This clever boy is a pro at car rides—he can hop in and out on his own and is so curious he might even try to board any car that looks interesting! Fully house-trained, Hwani exclusively takes care of business outdoors.



Hwani is a cheerful, affectionate, and playful companion who would thrive in a home that enjoys both outdoor adventures and cozy downtime. If you’re ready for a loyal and fun-loving friend, Hwani might just be your perfect match!



He can arrive at Vancouver or Toronto airport and may be able to arrive at some US airports (Seattle, LA, NY, Boston etc) where we have flight volunteers. If interested, please contact us.

More about this rescue

Adopt Korean Rescue is a volunteer-based federally registered not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted dogs in South Korea find a new home in Canada.

We love Korean dogs. Many of them live in chains, give birth on the side of the road, or wander around with their pups. Some of them get caught and end up at dog meat farms or high-kill shelters in South Korea. They luckily meet us just before euthanasia or after many years of living in dog meat farms. We exist to hold their paws and help them find a forever home in Canada full of joy and happiness.
