Story
Dexter takes a little time to warm up but once he does he’s a little cuddle bug who thinks he is a cat. The perfect family for Dexter is one who will allow him to warm up to you on his own time. Dexter has been through a lot so his family must be understanding and patient until he learns to trust again. If you can do that, Dexter will make the perfect companion. We prefer he is the only dog in the household.

Story
** Current Location: in a foster home in South Korea ** Meet Sunny with a story of miracles👋 Sunny was found on a street in South Korea at one year old in 2018 and taken to a high-risk shelter, but she was already in serious condition presumably caused by a car accident. Her pelvis was fractured, and her right hind leg bone was broken into pieces. She was saved from euthanasia by the rescue team and hospitalized for months (Jun-Sep 2018) due to the surgery and recovery. She was miraculously given a new life thanks to the rescue. That same year, after a few months of foster period, Sunny found a forever home, which was another miracle we thought of back then. Five years later, however, the rescue team got an unknown phone call requesting to change Sunny's ownership. Long story short, her family decided to give up on her after years, sent her to a pet shop, and paid them, all this without discussing it with the rescue team. This pet shop basically receives pets from owners and in turn, sells them out, and to do so with Sunny, they needed to have Sunny's ownership switched from the rescue team to the pet shop so they contacted the rescue team, and that’s how the rescue team learned Sunny's situation. Eventually, Sunny was able to safely return to her original rescue team, which is another miracle in her story. Despite all these setbacks, Sunny's sweet nature and zest for life shine bright. She needs one true chance to find her real forever family that loves her unconditionally. Recently, she has been moved to her foster home with two other dogs. Sunny is eagerly waiting for her own home now! • Personality: Sweet, Playful, Sociable Sunny thrives on love and affection and gets along with all people and furry friends, making her the perfect companion for anyone seeking a lovely and affectionate fur buddy. She is such a cuddle bug! She likes snuggly cushions and blankets. • Affinity with - Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs regardless of the size - Cats: Okay with street cats. She sometimes tries to chase kittens, but she stops when told. - Adults/Kids: Good with adults, especially elders including men / Okay with kids - not much interest in them. 💫She will be a perfect fit for most types of families! • Housetrained: fully housebroken, okay with both pee-pads and outdoors. • Walking Manners: very good • Separation Anxiety: None • Bathing/Brushing: very good • Barks/Howls: she barks when excited or when she wants something. • Car Rides: very good • Appetite/Food Allergies: No allergies • Shedding level (1~10): 5-6 • Health Issues: Due to the serious injuries that she got from an accident right before rescue, her pelvis is not perfectly placed (incomplete union of iliac) even after she had surgery immediately after being rescued. However, currently, she doesn’t show signs of pain when walking or running. If you have an open heart and a loving home for Sunny, please don't hesitate to apply!

Story
** Current location: in a foster home in South Korea ** Meet Yool👋 This sweet little pup was found wandering the streets of Paju, South Korea, in August 2024. He was taken to a high-kill shelter, where his future was uncertain. Thankfully, HDS Rescue stepped in just in time, bringing him to safety at a partner clinic. After three months of recovery, Yool moved into his loving foster home, where he’s been well cared for. Now, he's ready to find his forever family! • Personality: Gentle, Affectionate, Friendly Yool is a gentle, submissive, affectionate boy with so much love to give! He’s friendly with everyone she meets, including men. Calm and laid-back most of the time, he has bursts of playful energy during mealtime or playtime. His sweet and loving nature will steal your heart! • Affinity with - Dogs: A little timid around other dogs and doesn’t feel confident when active dogs approach him. He may feel more comfortable around calm, gentle dogs. - Cats: He hasn’t had much exposure to cats yet but doesn’t show interest in them on walks. - Adults/Kids: Friendly with adults / While he’s not particularly drawn to kids, he’s generally good with all people. • Walking Manners: Still discovering the joy of walks since he likely didn’t get many chances before being rescued. He loves running on grassy patches and is slowly building his confidence on a leash. • Housetrained: Currently using pee pads indoors but has recently started peeing outdoors as well. • Bathing/Brushing: Bath time and brushing aren’t his favorite activities, but he tolerates them like a champ! • Car Sickness: Car rides make him a little nervous, but he stays calm when held in your arms. • Separation Anxiety: None. • Barks/Howls: Almost none. Maybe just one bark when he's impatient in front of food. • Appetite/Food Allergies: No allergies. Loves any kind of food. • Shedding level (1~10): 6-7 • Likes/Dislikes: Yool is a total foodie and loves everything from his kibble to treats and even health supplements! He also enjoys tug-of-war and being petted. / His one dislike? Bath time—he’s not a fan but gets through it with patience. 💊 Health Healthy overall, though he could benefit from a little weight loss. After his rescue, he had to be shaved, and the fur on his hindquarters has been growing back slower than the rest. (No issue with hormone) Other than that, he’s in great shape!
