My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Kuku🧡

Kuku is one of Danpoong’s five puppies. On a bitter winter day, Danpoong was brought to Koren city shelter, where she gave birth to five puppies and suffered from monge. After Adogs rescued them, the other puppies found their forever homes but Kuku and his mom Danpoong are still waiting for their family.

* With People : Loves people so he greets familiar ones with kisses. Gets scared or barks at strangers who approach swiftly and refuses treats. Hides to the room after barking with fear at new people who visit home. Warms up shortly if they take time and approach him slowly.
* With Dogs: Is calm, slightly interested, and wants to greet dogs that are indifferent to him. Caution is needed because he sometimes gets excited when greeting new dogs.
* With Cats: Sniffs calmly at cats who stay still but tries to chase running cats. He tries to fight back against aggressive cats so caution is needed.
* Separation Anxiety: None at all! Plays or sleeps alone very well even without humans around.
* Potty Training: Prefers outdoor potty but uses indoor pads with 100% accuracy.
* Hygiene: Dislikes baths but gets through it well. Is afraid of having nails trimmed and tries to nip. His nail length is being controlled with regular walks. Is very good with having his teeth and fur brushed!
* Walks: Goes for walks on a double leash. May pull on the leash when dogs, birds, cats or other animals pass by swiftly. May get nervous and bark when a person suddenly comes running in his direction and is going through training.
* Car Sickness: May have car sickness when he rides the car for over 30 minutes. It would be better not to feed him before car rides.

* Has mastered commands such as "sit," "right paw," “left paw,” "lie down," "nose," "V," and is a quick learner.
* Is learning recall so he comes back nicely if you call his name, except in cases where he is surprised.
* Has a good appetite, so he may growl when you try to touch his snack.
* May get nervous and try to bite defensively when a stranger comes to touch him suddenly.
* When forced to be hugged or someone tries to touch him recklessly, he show discomfort by baring his teeth.
* Is scared and sometimes barks when he hears sudden or unfamiliar noises, but stops very quckly.
* Gets scared easily, but is also a very curious dog. Shows a lot of affection when you become close to him!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All our dogs fly from South Korea to the US when their adoptions are finalized so the adopters cannot go through "meet and greet."
But once applicants pass zoom interview, we will connect adopter to foster team for the most up to date news as well as photos and videos. The adopter can post any questions and can make video call as well.
Please hold our dog's hands so that they can forget about the painful past and live happily.
"Adopting an abandoned dog will not change the world but this can change the dog's world"

More about this rescue

ADOGS(Adopt Dogs), a non-profit organization, is an abandoned dog foster/adoption organization launched by an individual volunteer group that has rescued, fostered, adopted dogs since 2018.

We are conducting rescue, foster, adopt from South Korea rural shelter. We also rescue dogs irregularly from illegal dog farms or any other places that need help.
We rescue large and small dogs of all breeds, including dogs with special needs.

Although we can't save all abandoned dogs in the world, we are doing our best to the dogs in front of us so that their lives can be changed like any other pets.

In expanding our search for adoption leads, we’ve broadened our mission: To bring at-risk dogs across the Pacific to loving stateside families.

Due to limited demand for large-breed dogs in Korea, arranging for local adoption has proven almost impossible. Instead, we seek to bring these persecuted dogs to the United States where dogs have a higher chance for adoption and survival.
