Story
✅️Currently located in South Korea✅️ Meet Noah🤍 💙 Noah’s Account: @aki.noa.sushi 1. Health • Neutering/Spaying: Completed • Other: Microchipped; had bladder stone surgery and molar extraction. Fully blind in one eye due to cataracts. Experiences coughing when temperatures drop, requiring steroid medication if coughing occurs. Has partial hearing loss. All teeth except molars have been extracted, so he cannot eat hard treats. 2. Rescue Story • Noah was rescued from a breeding facility alongside Aji and Aki before Adogs officially formed. He was adopted, but after his adopter passed away suddenly in September 2024, Noah returned to Adogs. He is looking for a family to help him overcome his grief and begin a new chapter of life. 3. Personality & Habits • With People: Very affectionate and sweet, loves both strangers and familiar people, and often approaches first asking for pets. • With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs, both familiar and new friends. May show cute jealousy if another dog gets attention. • Separation Anxiety: Calm when left with Aki, though Aki has separation anxiety that affects Noah. If left with another dog or person, he waits quietly. • House Training: Fully pee pad trained (100% accuracy), though he prefers pooping outdoors. He tends to pee near the edge of the pad, so surrounding it with a fence or holder is helpful. • Hygiene/Grooming: Very calm and well-behaved during baths, drying, and brushing. • Walking on Leash: Walks well on a leash without pulling and keeps pace nicely. 4. Special Notes • May bark briefly when a stranger enters the room for the first time. In the evenings, he may bark for 5 minutes normally, or 20–30 minutes if he has extra energy. • Has a strong food drive and eats quickly when excited for meals, so feeding slowly and calmly is recommended.

Story
Rehoming Coco – Loving & Friendly Dog Looking for a Forever Home It breaks my heart to write this, but I’m looking for a new home for my dog, Coco. I’ve had him for 8 years, and he’s been such a loyal, loving, and friendly companion. Unfortunately, with a one-year-old baby and working two jobs, I no longer have the time to give him the walks, play, and attention he truly deserves. Coco is very sweet, affectionate, and friendly with people. He loves companionship and needs someone who can give him the care, time, and love he’s used to. I’m not giving him up lightly—I just want to make sure he goes to a family or individual who will give him the quality of life he deserves. If you or someone you know can provide Coco with a loving, safe, and active home, please reach out.

Story
Lulu is a 3 year old Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie). Lulu can be a little shy at first but once she knows you she loves you. She is spayed, current on her vaccines and microchipped. Lulu will need a home with no small children and a fenced in yard as she will run if given the chance and does not walk on a leash. She gets along with other dogs and would probably love to have one in the home for a friend.If you are interested in meeting her the first step is to go to petresqinc.org to fill out an adoption application. Questions will be answered once we have an application. May 11, 2026, 5:22 pm

Story
Pippi is a 1 year old Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie). She is spayed and current on her vaccines. Pippi is the sweetest girl who loves everyone but must be your one and only. She would love a home of her own. She has a ton of puppy energy and would require a home with older children due to her size. If you are interested in meeting her, the first step is to go to petresqinc.org to fill out an adoption application. Questions will be answered once we have an application. May 11, 2026, 5:22 pm

Hi I'm Charlie! Me and my adopted sister, Lexi, need to find a home. My owner is old and needs to move into a nursing home and can't take me. Hope a fun owner can adopt me :)I'm a Maltese mix who loves attention and has lots of energy! I spend lots of time cuddling up with my elderly owner but love playing with the grandchildren too.
