Story
Meet Thor!  He's a vey handsome sweet guy!  He is a 3-4 year old that was rescued from a horrific dog meat farm in South Korea.  We have partners we work with there that pull these dogs from the worst horrors imaginable.  Many of these dogs start off in horrific puppy mill type facilities on tiny rabbit cage size wire crates in complete filth.  If they are not sold at 6 or 8 weeks then they either stay for a couple years to be used to breed more and then are sold off to the meat trade, or they are sold off right away.  Jindo's and Tosa's are the most common meat type dogs, and are very commonly bred specifically for their meat and the meat farms also act as breeding farms until they reach a good age and weight. South Korea is one of the only countries that actually farms dogs for their meat.   Some restaurants will serve a dish called " bosintang ", which stands for "dog meat soup". It's a popular dish in South  Korea with some of the older generations,  and is said to act as an aphrodisiac for men.    Little dogs are used for elixirs and potions.  The younger generation is mostly against this practice and many choose to not eat them, and we can only hope in time with education and generations of change that an end will come to this horrific trade.  Sadly, when Thor was caged at the meat farm- the conditions are so horrible that he wound up getting his leg caught in the bars and severing most of his front leg.  When rescued, he had to have his leg amputated.  You would never know he has only 3 legs as he walks, runs and plays just as good as a 4 legged dog!  It just makes him that much more special.  Thor and some of his friends have been flown here for a chance at a future and a real life.  These are miracle dogs that they are alive today.  Our adoption fee is $600 which helps offset some of the flight costs.  If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application form at  https://form.jotform.com/oscarlucy/dog-adoption-app December 19, 2024, 5:28 pm

Breed: Jindo / Terrier mix Age: 4 yrs. Weight: 22 lbs. Good with dogs: yes Good with cats: yes Good with kids: unsure Energy level: unsure Good with men/strangers: very scared of men Hypoallergenic: no Special home requirements or medical: needs an adult only female, calm household with a yard and another pet Additional info: My name is Vera and I’m here to be your cuddle bug! I can also be your cuddle buddy if you have other furry friends as I like being around other dogs and even cats too! I’m not really a barker but I will alert you if I hear or sense something outside as I am a protector. I can lay with you on the couch or go run around outside as long as I’m around you because I do enjoy getting pet all the time. I am also potty trained as I do like my homes when I’m in them as well the stuff inside so you can trust me that I won’t bite your shoes or nice furniture as they don’t interest me. What does interest me is a quiet home and yummy treats! Because I have been hurt in the past, I need an adult only female household that is calm and loving. I do best with another pet or pets in the house and a yard because I am scared of busy streets and do not enjoy walking on the leash. If you're looking for a forever best friend who can hang with you in your house and yard, I'm your girl!

Story
Breed: Jindo mix Age: 4 yrs. Weight: 20 lbs. Good with dogs: yes Good with cats: unsure Good with kids: unsure Energy level: unsure Good with men/strangers: yes Hypoallergenic: no Special home requirements or medical: none Additional info: This dog was rescued from the meat trade industry in Korea. In their life, prior to rescue, they have been neglected and abused. They have witnessed horrific things including the slaughter of their best friends. They have not experienced the loving touch of a human. Thankfully, a dog rescue organization in Korea stepped in to save them. Some dogs are taken directly from the meat farms, others from shelters where they have ended up when farms close or are abandoned. Others from the streets or dumps where they are left to die. After being rescued in Korea, wonderful volunteers donate countless hours to begin rehabilitation of each and every dog. They spend hours socializing with the dogs providing them with the first glimpse of human affection they have ever known. They introduce them to leashes and crates, and work to help them understand that life can be beautiful and kind. When a dog is well adjusted enough to adopt out, the organization then works to place them with adoptive families or other rescue organizations. There quite simply are not enough homes in their home county for these sweet lost souls. Dogs Without Borders is one of their partner organizations. When they arrive in Los Angeles, another phase of their rehabilitation begins. When they first arrive after the long flight, most of these dogs are extremely shy and scared. They require patience, patience, and more patience as they learn that they are also safe in their new environment. One’s instinct would be to smother them with affection and attention given their tragic past, but this is not how these dogs learn to thrive. Persistent kindness and patience are key. Although they adjusted to life outside of the meat farm in Korea, most sights and sounds in the big city will be new to them. Things like cars, streets, loud sounds will all be new and a challenge to overcome. They are flight risks, so we always ask they be double leashed when walked. Our foster team will work with you throughout the process.

Story
Meeks is the total package! He’s medium in size so easy to take everywhere, he’s stunning and he’s got a lot of personality. He was found as a stray in Pacoima and taken to the local shelter. He was then pulled by a rescue that put him directly in boarding which was confusing for him since he was a street dog. We were altered to the situation when the rescue reached out saying they didn’t have a foster for him and were not able to fulfill their commitment. He was transferred to us and went to a very experienced/dedicated foster. He’s dong great! He’s learning his manners, working on his house training and he’s fabulous with other dogs. He’s young, playful and needs exercise/adventure.

Story
Hi! My name is Miuccia Prada, and I am IN SOUTH KOREA waiting to be matched to a home in Los Angeles! I was rescued from the dog meat trade in South Korea by the DoVE Project. My fate would have been to live in fear and distress, watching dogs being led to slaughter for human consumption. DoVE Project heard about me, and now I am looking for my forever family! BREED: Jindo mix AGE: 4 years old DOB: November 12, 2019 WEIGHT: 50 pounds HEALTH: Vaccinations complete / spayed BEHAVIOR: Miuccia is a sweet girl and will warm up to you with some time. She is a bit of a goofball who loves to play! She will initiate cuddling and very much enjoys human interaction. It may take a second for her to warm up to strangers, but once she understands you are her friend, she will greet you very warmly. BACKGROUND: She was rescued from an illegal dog meat farm. ABOUT JINDOS Jindos are known for their fierce loyalty, high intelligence, rarely barking, and playful nature. They make great indoor family dogs, as Jindos are clean and easily housetrained, and are faithful to family members. They are also mid-level active and love being socialized at dog parks, going on hikes, and joining the family on trips. ABOUT OUR DOGS DoVE dogs come from a traumatic background such as dog meat farms and slaughterhouses. While many of our dogs acclimate within a few months with consistency, structure, and patience, some of our more sensitive dogs can take longer to rehabilitate. It's important to note that these sensitive dogs are even more attuned to human emotions and behavior, making for a deeper connection human-dog connection. DoVE Project is committed to helping our adopters desensitize and socialize our dog meat trade survivors. ********************************* DoVE Project operates a shelter in South Korea, where our dogs stay until they are matched with an adopter. In the US, our dogs stay in foster homes or in boarding, as we do not have a physical facility. These dogs are identified with "in LA" in their names. Please note that we only adopt our pups in the Southern California area. Please check our website for more information regarding our adoption process, our mission, and adoption application: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-process If you are interested in adopting, please complete an online application at: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-application-form.
