My story

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

Meet Popo💚

Popo was rescued from an illegal breeding farm in Goyang, South Korea. It is believed that he spent a long time in an environment where his tiny paws were stuck between the cage bars, forcing him to stand on his toes. Under the cages, there was a lot of feces, fur, and dirt, and the smell of ammonia stung his eyes and nose. The horrifying environment led us to rescue him.

* With People: Is so sweet and gentle that he accepts touch from strangers! Is not overly affectionate, but he loves human warmth.
* With Dogs: Doesn't ‘t approach other dogs to play first, but he gets along well with them!
* Separation Anxiety: Doesn't ‘t have any separation anxiety and is fine alone!
* Potty Training: Once having a spot, he’s good at pottying at that place. Recognizes it as a toilet, so it‘s best not to change the potty spot. Doesn’t have healthy legs, so it‘s better to use a large pee pad.
* Hygiene: Doesn't ’t like baths and brushing his teeth, but he is very patient.
* Walks: His legs are not very good, so walks should be short and he needs to be carried by the guardians on stairs and curbs.

💌 Special Notes💌
* Has coprophagia, so he is undergoing training.

❗Health Status❗
* Neutered.
* Microchipped.
* Popo was left at the breeding farm with a completely dislocated kneecap and had surgery on his kneecap due to a deformity. The resulting stiffness in his leg requires ongoing rehabilitation. He has no problems walking or pottying.
