My name is Soonjin!

Soonjin is a two-year-old male dog, believed to be a Jindo and Samoyed mix, who was rescued from a shelter just before being euthanized. He has a calm and quiet personality and a beautifully thick and soft coat that adds to his charm.

True to the Jindo breed, Soonjin is highly loyal to a single owner. He carries himself with a dignified, gentlemanly demeanor, never engaging in fights or barking excessively. He prefers spending time alone rather than socializing with other dogs. However, he is not overly cautious and once trust is established, he enjoys human touch and allows people to pet him without hesitation.

His eating habits are also remarkably composed. Instead of eating hastily, he takes his time savoring his food. His approach to people is equally gentle and careful—rather than rushing up excitedly, he quietly sits nearby, waiting patiently, which perfectly reflects his personality.

At the training center, Soonjin follows a routine of going outside three times a day for bathroom breaks, resting quietly on his own, and then returning to his space. He might have some accidents inside at first while he adjusts to a new environment, but with patience and encouragement for outdoor potty training, he will adapt well. In a new home, he may initially feel sensitive to unfamiliar surroundings. It’s important to give him ample time to open up rather than trying to rush the bonding process. During walks, Soonjin displays perfect leash manners, walking calmly without pulling.

Soonjin is both loyal and dignified and has an unshakable trust and presence. While he may have the typical sensitivity of a Jindo, once he forms a bond and recognizes his owner, he shows affection and becomes a composed yet loving companion.
