✅Currently located in South Korea✅️💟Available to fly to LAX💟The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate.Meet Buddle🌿 (It means willow in Korean)💙 Adogs News Account: @_adogs_1️⃣ Health Status* Neuter: Completed.* Others: Microchipped, and heartworm negative.* He was diagnosed with patellar luxation in both hind legs and underwent surgery. Recovery is going well; he can currently enjoy 20–30 minute light walks. A follow-up checkup is scheduled in 6 weeks.2️⃣ Rescue Story* Buddle was found staring blankly from a "raised wire cage" at a rural house in Damyang, Jeollanam-do. Adogs received a report that the dogs in those cages were frequently being replaced, leading to concerns for his safety. He was urgently rescued to ensure he wouldn't face a tragic fate.3️⃣ Personality & Characteristics* With Humans: Likes people and shows interest first, but tends to dodge or weave away if you try to touch him too proactively. Once caught and showered with affection, he enjoys it but remains slightly wary. To those he is familiar with, he is a total sweetheart—following them around, lying down for pets, and licking them.* With Dogs: Due to his leg surgery, he hasn't been formally integrated with a pack yet. When he sees other dogs, he often gets excited, barks, or tries to "mouth punch." Is affectionate with close dog friends but is sensitive regarding food, so caution is required during meal/snack times.* With Cats: Gets excited and tries to chase them.* Separation Anxiety: Difficult to assess currently as he lives in a group setting at the center. Will likely need training from scratch once he moves into a home.* House Training: At the center, he only eliminates outdoors. Diisplays marking behavior during walks.* Grooming: Once you have a hold of him, he is very well-behaved for any type of care! His teeth are currently being brushed 2–3 times a week.* Walking: Is training hard, but still pulls on the leash. Gets excited and tries to chase other animals during walks. Tends to bark back at dogs that are barking or wary of him. Currently, he is practicing the "Sit" command and waiting until the other dog disappears from view.* Car Sickness: Is scared of car rides. Initially, trembles and drools a little, but eventually settles down and stays quiet after some time.* Mouthing/Biting: Shows aggression if another dog tries to take his treats or if a dog barks/growls at him. Has never shown any biting behavior toward humans.* Barking: Lets out a high-pitched "yelp/whine" when he wants to be let out of his kennel. Barks back at reactive dogs during walks. Has shown specific reactivity (growling/showing teeth) toward certain dogs.* Likes: Absolutely loves dolls and toys! Carries them around everywhere and will beg you to play tug-of-war. Also loves rolling around on the grass.* Dislikes: Is very afraid of getting into cars. Might try to slip out of his collar or harness to escape, so a double leash/harness is mandatory and extreme caution is required. Is scared of people who stand tall with big gestures, or those carrying canes or heavy luggage. Gets wary if someone shakes an object in their hand.* Talents: Will "Sit" when he wants something. While he used to only "Sit" for treats, he has recently learned to "Sit and make eye contact." Responds well to his name (calling), but may ignore it if he is overstimulated by another dog.* Overall Personality: Is a bit of a "scaredy-cat", but is full of curiosity and interest in people. If you wait patiently for him to open his heart, he will surely show his true colors as a bright, bubbly, and loving companion.
