***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation***
Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues.
WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS.
Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog.
We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes around the US and Canada, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA.
Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, or cash. We no longer accept PayPal due to their fees & charges but if the potential adopter is willing to pay them we will accept PayPal.
Beautiful, shy Benny was found on the side of busy highway in GwangJu, korea.
There were several dogs, some chained & some roaming freely. The Korean rescue said they were not sure how they all got there, but they clearly had all been neglected & on a daily bases exposed to being hit & killed from the high speed of cars speeding by. The Korea rescue had to of course rescue everyone & they thought the lovely Benny was a young puppy, but after taking her to their vet, they found out she was pregnant. Unfortunately she miscarried all of her babies one month before her due date. The sheer heartbreak of her beginning to life is so sad. No one wanted Benny & we were asked could we help & it was our pleasure & joy to bring Benny into our rescue to find her, that family who won’t let her down.
Benny was rescued by the amazing Korean rescue & just as always we are beyond grateful to the Korean rescue & we are so extremely grateful for what they do day in & day out for these babies & there is also such a great financial responsibility when rescuing these babies so we cannot begin to thank them enough.
Benny was bought back to the USA where she is now a US citizen & is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find her new loving devoted forever home.
The stunning Benny has had people let her down & now she is being taught what it’s like to be loved.
This lady is a shy girl around humans, she is very tolerant but loves dogs. Dogs are her world. Dogs make her happy. We have Benny with many breeds of dogs making her feel comfortable. She will snuggle up with another little Korean friend she came with but will play with the other dogs.
Benny as we know was left outside for the first part of her life rain, hail or shine & hates being outside but loves being inside. This is understandable based upon her start to life so her new home with have to work with her on that & keep that in mind.
She is really good with being picked up & given love once she is picked up & will soak up the affection. This girl does not have a mean bone in her body. She is very slow to warm up & feel comfortable & will take a couple of weeks before she will be her normal self. She has been to hell & back. But once she trusts her people, they become everything to her.
What we do know is, she loves to eat & adores a good outfit & when it’s time for bed she likes to snuggle up with her dog friends.
Benny is really good with being bathed & dried by the hairdryer & so tolerant.
She would still need work walking on her harness & leash & gets worried when outside & sometimes won’t want to move or walk. But who could blame her. We have discovered that she will walk on her harness & leash for some people & for other people she will not move at all.
Benny loves her dog friends so much. Benny’s new forever home must have a fully fenced backyard. She has always been with other dogs & she adores other dogs so in her forever home another dog or dogs is mandatory in her forever home for her to have her best life. She also initiates play with dogs & adores playing once comfortable. Benny will never be a pack leader but wants to be apart of a pack. While in Korea, Benny was taught to go on potty pads so her family has been working with her to go potty outside.
Benny still needs to go for more car rides as she has not been for hardly any since being in the rescue. She will just sit in the car & won’t move, she is just shy going in the car. She probably thinks every time she is going to go in the car she is going to get dumped. So she needs a lot more car rides in her future to let her know she isn’t going anywhere. We are & only looking for a crate free home for this little lady only. She wanted out of the crate after the flight. Benny as you can imagine spent such a long time in the shelter in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Benny where someone is home during the day or she can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them.
Poor sweet Benny has already had a failed adoption & a failed meet & greet so
Benny is looking for a forever home who will cherish her & love her as she should be loved & be patient with her & never give up on her again.
Poor misunderstood Benny was adopted again & returned. She needs a home who is dedicated & being patient with her.
Benny has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & she is currently with other dogs & adores other dogs. Benny needs to go to a forever home with another dog or dogs in the home, she enjoys the company of other dogs & we currently have her with other dogs. Please do not apply saying your neighbors have a dog or family members or you will take her to places where there are other dogs. That will not work, another dog or dogs is mandatory along with a fully fenced backyard.
Benny is roughly 32.2 lbs, she is 4 years old & perhaps a samoyed shiba inu mix, what she is mixed with we are not sure, female, she is spayed. Poor beautiful Benny was treated for an awfully bad chemical burn. She is microchipped, heartworm negative, tested for giardia & was negative. She previously received shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, CIV, rabies & dewormed. Once the shots expire we only redo rabies as we do not over vaccine dogs.
We have spent far more on Benny with bringing her to the US with her travel costs, broker fees, her medical care, boarding fees, etc & bringing her to WA than her adoption fee comes close to covering.
Benny has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had her around small children so we do not recommend small children nor cats & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats.
We were not there when Benny was conceived so we do not know who her parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think her breed is.
As with all of our rescues & Benny’s friends she will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Benny
potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond.
We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.
Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Benny & going through our process and have read her listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on. Or you waste this rescues time, will remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit via WebEx due to covid & followed by a meet & greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Benny who understands her needs & that meet all the requirements for this special sweet little lady.
Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately.
Benny has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for her truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what she has been through.
