Story
🧡 Hi, I'm Milo 🧡 Age: 1 year Breed: Jindo-Shiba Mix Sex: Male Weight: 8kg (just under 18 lbs) I may be fully grown, but I’m a little guy with a big heart—and I’m ready to fill your home with love, one pawstep at a time. People say I look like a little teddy bear, with my soft brown fur and round eyes that are always full of curiosity. I’m small, sweet, and full of quiet charm. You might never guess it from my gentle looks, but I’ve already been through a lot in my short life. I was once on a euthanasia list… but I was saved just in time. Since then, I’ve only known shelter life. A real home? I’ve never had one. But I’m hoping that’s about to change—with you. Because I’ve never lived in a house, I haven’t learned all the rules yet—especially when it comes to potty training. I’m not used to going inside or outside properly, so I’ll need your help learning a routine from scratch. If you gently guide me to the same spot after meals, naps, and playtime—and reward me with yummy treats when I get it right—I’ll catch on quickly. If I make mistakes, please don’t scold me. Just quietly clean up and help me try again. I really want to learn! At first, I might be a little unsure around new people. I don’t trust easily, but not because I don’t want to—it’s just that I’ve never really known what it means to feel safe. That said, I’m very curious, and I love food (especially treats from your hand!). Give me a bit of time, and you’ll see me coming over on my own, asking for pets and showing you my soft, cuddly side. Sometimes sudden movements or unfamiliar touches might startle me, so it’s best to approach slowly at first—low posture, calm energy, and of course… snacks! With your patience and kindness, I’ll learn that hands mean love, not fear. When it’s time for walks, I do best with a chest harness and a backup leash for safety—two points of security, just in case. Quiet streets are my favorite for now. With gentle exposure and encouragement, I’ll slowly grow more confident exploring the world by your side. I know I’m not perfect. I still have so much to learn. But now is the perfect time to teach me. I’m young, open-hearted, and so eager to bond. With love, patience, and a calm guiding hand, I’ll grow into a polite, loyal companion who brings joy to your everyday life. I’ve lived my life behind shelter walls—but I’m ready to trade that for warm beds, gentle walks, and a forever family to call my own. Could that family be you? With hope in my eyes and love in my little heart, Milo 🐾

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Miller Age: 3 years old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Shiba & Jindo mix Color: Beige & Cream Weight: 10kg / 22lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I’m not sure how I ended up all alone in the city pound, but I was placed on the euthanasia list simply because there wasn’t enough space for dogs like me. Despite that scary chapter, I never lost my gentle, loving heart—and now I’m just hoping to find the forever family who will give me the safe, happy life I’ve been waiting for.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues I had to undergo surgery to remove my right eye, but my left eye has good vision and no issues.   MY PERSONALITY Hi! I’m Miller. I’m not sure how my right eye got injured, but when I was rescued, it was in a very bad shape and I needed surgery to have it removed. Even with just my left eye, I don’t let it slow me down or dampen my spirit! I’m a sweet, gentle boy who truly loves people. I’m naturally a little shy at first, but with patience I warm up—and volunteers and staff can always see that I want to interact, even if I hesitate in the beginning. I’m getting braver every day, learning to trust more, and showing more of my affectionate, friendly side as I grow confident.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I can be shy in the beginning, but I’ll gently take treats from your hand. After I warm up, I’m comfortable with pets and gentle affection. Once trust is established, I can be picked up. I’m a sweet boy who enjoys people, and as I grow more confident and settled in my new home, I’ll become a loyal shadow. · With Dogs: I’m pretty indifferent with other dogs. I can get overwhelmed by high-energy pups and prefer to do my own thing, calmly observing the environment. If another dog is rude or pushy, I simply walk away from the drama and avoid conflict. ·With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to find the best match!   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level—I enjoy spending time outdoors, but I’m just as happy to snuggle up indoors afterward.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk well on leash and follow my handler’s lead nicely. I don’t guard my food around people or other dogs—in fact, I have a big appetite and love treats, so I’m eager to please and learn. I’m confident I’ll pick up training quickly. I’m very quiet and rarely bark, and I know how to rest calmly in my kennel. I do struggle with car rides, as I can get motion sickness. I potty both indoors (on pee pads) and outdoors, though I may mark a little when I’m adjusting to a new environment.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself, and a stable environment. A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout and continue to provide me with basic training and socialization. A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together. A family that will love and cherish me forever. Ideally, a family experienced with Shibas and primitive breeds. The only dog in the household.   SPECIAL NOTES Don’t let my shyness fool you—I’m a sweet boy who really does like people. I just need a little time at first to show my affectionate side. I’m improving every day, and I’m confident that in a loving home I’ll fully come out of my shell and express myself. I wag my tail and show interest in people, even if I hesitate at the start. I love treats and I’m very food-motivated, so I’m eager to learn and please. I’m considered to be a level 3 rescue dog, meaning I will take at least a week to open up and feel more settled in a new environment. I must wear my martingale collar at all times and double-leashed to my harness and collar with a GPS tracker when outside to keep me safe.   Miller's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2595121##

Story
Quick Facts Name: Jigu  Age: 4 years old  Gender: Female Neutered/Spayed: Yes Breed: Shiba Jindo Mix  Color: Brown  Weight: 18kg    All About MeShe was a dog waiting for euthanasia at a shelter in Cheongju, Korea. But thanks to a warm helping hand, she was rescued and given a new chance at life.Jigu is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm, but she is otherwise in good health and adjusting well. She can be a little shy at first and needs time to open up to new people, but she will gently accept treats, even from strangers. Once she warms up she becomes affectionate and enjoys being petted. She tends to bond faster with women and may need a little more time with men. She hasn’t had much experience around young children, so she may need slow and gentle introductions. She also doesn’t like being picked up with arms under her belly, as it makes her feel uncomfortable.   My PersonalityJigu is a calm and smart dog with a balanced energy level. She enjoys outdoor activities, but after a good walk, she’s happy to rest quietly indoors. She’s independent but shows deep affection once trust is built.While she doesn’t guard food from people, she may be cautious if another dog approaches during mealtime so she need own time when she is eating. She also may bark to express her needs or when encountering strangers, but she settles well once she feels secure.She tends to get jealous and would do best as the only pet in the home.   Social SkillsWith people – She needs time to open up but becomes affectionate and enjoys being touched.With children – she may feel a bit unfamiliar with young children and don’t have much experience.With other dogs – She may react if another dog is confrontational, so the first meeting should be supervised and slow. She has little jalouse and prefers to be the only dog in the household.With cats – she hasn't lived with cats, and there are no observed responses.   On My Walks‍Jigu has lots of walking experience and walks very well on a leash without pulling. She enjoys her outdoor time and likes exploring calmly by your side. She prefers to go potty outdoors, though she’s capable of doing so indoors if needed.   Life at HomeJigu is quiet and well behaved. She settles down nicely in a kennel and enjoys having a peaceful space to relax. She doesn’t guard food from people and appreciates a calm mealtime without interruptions. Jigu would thrive in a gentle, stable home where she can adjust at her own pace. With patience and love, she’ll open her heart fully and form a deep connection with her family.   Special NotesFor those who offer her time and understanding, Jigu gives back the kind of trust and love that’s truly special, quiet, loyal, and full of warmth.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Jigu's YouTube Playlist ##2458345##

ALL ABOUT ME  Name: Wonder Age: 5 years old Gender: Male Spayed/Neutered: Yes Breed: Shiba/ Jindo mix Colour: Beige, brown Weight: 20kg / 44lbs Microchipped: Yes   MY RESCUE STORY Hi there! I’m Wonder. I was given a second chance at life after being rescued from the euthanasia list, and now I’m ready to leave my past behind and find my forever family. I’m full of love, curiosity, and sweet puppy charm—just waiting for the perfect home to share all my cuddles, playtime, and joy!   MY HEALTH Fully vaccinated (5-round series complete)  I’ve been neutered and have no known health issues.   MY PERSONALITY I’m not just cute—I’m a super sweet boy too! Volunteers and staff always say I’d win the friendliest award if there was a contest. I get along wonderfully with people and dogs alike, and I absolutely love human companionship. I’ll happily follow you around like your little shadow, and when I click with someone, I love to approach them for pets, snuggles, and all the love I can give!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I’m great with people! I love approaching strangers to ask for pets and attention. You can pick me up, and I’ll even show you my belly as a sign of trust. I haven’t met kids yet, but with my friendly and gentle nature, I’m confident I’ll do wonderfully with slow and respectful introductions. I don’t guard my food against people, so I’m easygoing and ready to share your love.   With Dogs: I’m friendly with dogs too! I love meeting new furry friends, and playtime is my absolute favorite. I get along with dogs of all sizes and always try to keep the peace. Even if another dog is pushy or rude, I’m very good at tolerating them and avoiding drama. I don’t guard my food, so I’m easygoing and ready to make lots of doggy friends!   With Cats:  I haven’t met any cats yet, but with a slow and thoughtful introduction, I think I could learn to live peacefully with a feline friend.   ENERGY AND ACTIVITIES I have a moderate to high energy level! I love spending time outdoors, running around, and burning off my energy. Once I’ve had my fun, I’m perfectly happy to snuggle up and relax indoors, enjoying some cozy downtime with you.   TRAINING & HABITS I walk nicely on leash and generally follow my handler’s lead, though I might pull a little when something catches my interest. I’ll let you know when I want attention with a little bark, and I know how to rest quietly in my kennel. I prefer to do my business outdoors and love keeping my space clean!   MY IDEAL HOME I’m looking for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that offers a safe, structured, and calm environment. A family that enjoys spending quality time together indoors & outdoors. A family that can shower me with love and attention. Ideally a home with another dog sibling, but not an absolute requirement. A family that likes to take me on outdoor adventures (e.g. camping, hiking).   SPECIAL NOTES I guarantee you’ll fall in love with me at first sight! My beautiful dark brown eyes and adorable smile are impossible to resist. I love snuggling up in your arms and soaking up all the affection you have to give. Playtime is one of my favorite things—I especially adore chasing my ball and running around, full of energy and joy! I can’t wait to share my love with my forever family.    For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Wonder’s YouTube Playlist ##2494074##

Story
🏠Currently in a Toronto foster home Hi, I’m Cici — and I can’t wait to meet my forever family. 🤎 I’m a 3-year-old Jindo–Shiba mix girl with a strong, healthy 16.8kg body and an even stronger heart. I was rescued from a high-kill shelter in Korea — a place where my story almost ended before it truly began. But I got a second chance, and now I’m living safely in a foster home in Toronto, hoping the next part of my journey leads me straight into your arms. I love people. Really, truly love them. Even when I meet someone for the first time, I open my heart right away — wagging my tail, smiling, and gently asking for affection. I’m the type who likes to stay close, make eye contact, and share warm moments of connection. People say I have a very soft, loving soul. On walks, I get a little excited and may pull on the leash, but I’m practicing and getting better every day. I adjust quickly to new places and sounds, so everyday life with me is easy and fun. I also get along well with other dogs. I do have one thing to keep in mind: when I see small animals like cats or birds, my curiosity kicks in and I want to chase them. So in a home with different kinds of pets, I would need careful management. I’m a healthy eater, a bright and gentle girl, and I’ve been told more than once that I’m pretty adorable too. Just being near me, people say they feel warm — maybe that’s my special charm. Right now, I’m waiting for a forever family who will love me completely. Once I give my heart, I love deeply and for life. Please adopt me, and let me bring love, warmth, and joy into your home. 🤎

Story
My name is Monggoon, and I'm an 8-month-old Jindo-Shiba mix boy, weighing about 16kg (35 lbs). I was rescued just in time from a shelter, along with my brave mom, and now we’re both safe and being cared for with lots of love. I'm still a pup, so I’ve got lots to learn—but the good news is, I love people and I’m eager to please! Growing up next to my mom has helped me become a confident, social, and friendly boy. I get along really well with other dogs and always enjoy meeting new friends. Since I’m young, potty training is still a work in progress, but I’m super motivated by treats, which makes training fun and effective! I’m currently learning basic commands and going on practice walks, and I’m getting better every day. I pick things up quickly—especially when there’s food or praise involved! I might feel a little unsure if I’m suddenly separated from my mom, but if you give me some time, patience, and love, I promise I’ll come to you with tail wags and warm greetings. I’m a gentle soul with a big heart, and once I trust you, I’ll be your most loyal companion. All I need is someone who’s ready to guide me, love me, and help me grow into the amazing dog I know I can be. If you’re willing to be patient and kind, I’ll give you a lifetime of love, fun, and devotion. Could you be my forever family? I’ll be waiting with a wagging tail. 🐾💛 Love, Monggoon
