-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sophie is a dog born in May 2022, part of a litter of five. Her early days required special care, as she was hand-raised due to her mother's health issues. She has spent most of her life in a foster home, sharing space with her foster parent and four other rescue dogs.
Sophie loves to be close to humans, even when sleeping, and greets her foster family with joyful jumps when they return home. Despite her love for company, Sophie has an independent streak and enjoys playing by herself.
She has lived with up to eight dogs but seems to prefer being an only dog. Sophie is a bit territorial about her space, food, and toys, especially around other dogs. However, she's friendly and well-mannered with other dogs she meets outside, like at the dog park.
Sophie enjoys walks but she pulls on her leash a bit when she's excited or chasing small animals. She's calm during baths and rides well in a car, even on long trips.
Diet-wise, Sophie eats a single-protein duck formula (Go Go Feed Solution LID Duck) to avoid allergies, as she sometimes chews on her front legs. She does best-avoiding beef, pork, and chicken, sticking to duck-based foods and natural snacks.
Sophie doesn't show signs of separation anxiety, especially if she has a good walk before being left alone. Sophie is a bright, affectionate dog who loves human companionship. She responds well when called by her name. Sophie would thrive in a loving home where she can be the center of attention and form a strong bond with her guardian. She will be most comfortable as the only dog.

Free Korean Dogs (FKD) is a registered charity in Canada (BN:80580 0166RR0001).
Founded in Toronto, Canada on July 1st, 2015, our organization rescues dogs from Korea’s dog meat trade and other at-risk circumstances and finds their forever-loving homes in Canada and the US.
Millions of dogs are slaughtered for meat consumption in Korea every year. Most of them are kept in tiny, overcrowded cages in dog meat farms provided no water or shelter from the elements, and given only scraps of waste to eat. It is also common practice for dogs to be brutally tortured before slaughter as it is believed to enhance flavor and nutritional healing properties, despite an overwhelming lack of evidence to support these claims.
Korea is the only country in the world that commercially farms dogs for food. The lack of legislation regulating the Korean dog meat trade results in the lack of standards for safety or humane treatment. Simply speaking, dogs can be obtained by any means, whether stray or farmed and treated in unfathomable inhumane manners without consequence. The dog meat trade in Korea is a legislative gray area and political landmine that nobody in power wants to address.
Our international rescue and adoption program saves over hundreds of dogs each year from the Korean dog meat trade and finds their homes in Canada. Since 2015, we have shut down two dog meat farm operations, rescued over two hundred dogs from the dog meat trade, and found forever homes for over seven hundred dogs rescued from euthanasia or the risk of being forced into the meat trade.
We also promote public awareness to create a cultural shift from cruelty to compassion for dogs in Korea through campaigns, protests, and events. Through rescue, rehabilitation, and education, we hope one day all dogs and animals can lead peaceful and happy lives.
