My story

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

Meet Bada🌊 (It means sea in Korean)

In late June 2022, Bada arrived at the shelter with a fractured front leg. In the sweltering heat, flies swarmed around his bandaged wound, which had become infected. After being rescued, it was discovered that his bone had healed improperly, requiring corrective surgery. Now fully recovered, Bada is healthy and energetic, leaping and running with joy. 😊

With People: Bada loves people and quickly warms up to them. While he may need a little time to get comfortable initially, he soon becomes playful, even jumping excitedly to greet you. Treats help speed up the bonding process! He enjoys being petted and eagerly stands on his hind legs to welcome familiar faces. However, when he’s overly excited, he may run off playfully when approached for pets.
With Dogs: Bada enjoys the company of other dogs and plays well with those who match his energy. However, his excitement level can be high during play, and disagreements may arise if his playmates aren’t receptive. He would do best with a similarly energetic dog or as the only dog in the home.
Separation Anxiety: Currently unknown, as he resides in the shelter.
Potty Training: Fully trained for outdoor pottying.
Grooming and Hygiene: He is initially wary of brushing but tolerates it well with gentle handling.
He allows ear cleaning without fuss and doesn’t engage in destructive behaviors.While he isn’t a fan of nail trims, he cooperates one paw at a time.
Walking and Outdoor Behavior: Bada loves walks! While he doesn’t pull excessively on the leash, his large size means he exerts natural strength when moving.
Car Sickness: Rides comfortably in the car without any signs of motion sickness.

💌Special Notes💌

Training: Bada has mastered the commands “sit” and “shake.”
Play Habits: He loves playing fetch and is great at bringing the ball back for more!
