Story
Candy was adopted from a Salvadorian non-profit organization along with her sister Bella. Candy and her sister have had issues getting along. However, Candy has been boarded with other dogs with no issues at all. We believe this is truly a sister rivalry issue, since we have never had any problems with Candy fighting with any other dogs while boarding. Candy is sweet, shy, loves to sleep, loves long walks, and is great with kids. We are looking for a loving home for Candy where she would preferably be the only dog so she gets all the love and attention to herself. Candy looks like a whippet, however, she is a rescued dog and not a pure breed.

Story
Max is as gentle as the day is long. He would make a great family dog and does well with children. He was raised with kids who gave him a lot of attention until they left home for college and Max became lonely. This is why he was relinquished to Poochmatch.

Story
❗Current location: in a foster home in South Korea❗ • Rescue Story: He was rescued from a high-kill shelter along with his brother in Jan 2023. While his lucky brother found his forever home soon after and has been happily living with his family, Saerom was relinquished twice by his first and second families unfortunately. His former families misunderstood his teething as biting and did not like his appearance. He may have been hurt by them, but is growing as a bright pup in his current foster for the past 10 months and has learned socialization to be ready to find his true forever family. We hope he won't get hurt by humans ever again! • 3 keywords: attached to his owner/ active/ smart • Affinity with - Dogs: Generally good around other dogs! He's been behaving at a dog swimming pool or a dog cafe. - Cats: He lived with a kitten once in the current foster home, and he ended up being sweet and taking care of it :) - Kids: When he was a puppy, he lived with two kids (one elementary schooler, one kindergartener) in his previous foster home and liked playing with them. • Housetrained: uses indoor pee-pads placed in a restroom! • Barks/Howls: Only barks at the doorbell sound. • Walking Manners: He tends to pull a little out of excitement at the beginning of a walk but paces with his walker later on. • Energy Level: mid-high since he is still young! • Appetite: He eats anything well! • Car Rides: He has felt slight car sickness for a long time over 20 minutes. (fine with subway) • Bathing/Teeth Brushing: Good with water itself, but not a fan of a dryer. / Likes doggy toothpaste! No problem with teeth brushing every night! • Likes: plush toys and dog chews! • Commands/Tricks: sit, paw, stay, eat (pound twice on the floor), down, and 'V' • Shedding: 2 during non-shedding seasons and 8 during shedding seasons
