My story

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

Meet Sogum, a gentle and affectionate 5-year-old spayed female Jindo mix with a striking black-and-white coat, weighing 16kg. Sogum’s journey hasn’t been easy—she was rescued from a shelter in Gapyeong after being found wandering near a house. Her teeth show significant wear, likely from chewing on cage bars during her time at meat farm, but her resilience and loving nature shine through.



Sogum is a people-loving sweetheart with a magnetic personality. She adores snuggling and will happily lean into anyone she meets, even strangers, asking for pets and affection. She doesn’t have a shy bone in her body and greets both men and women with equal enthusiasm. While she hasn’t interacted with children under 13, her gentle nature suggests she’d do well with them. Sogum is also comfortable being picked up, making her easy to handle.



Sogum is just as friendly with other dogs as she is with people. She greets unfamiliar dogs warmly and enjoys playing calmly with dogs of all sizes. While she’s happy to make new canine friends, she tends to rely more on her humans for comfort and connection. Even if another dog gets pushy, Sogum simply moves away to keep the peace.



Sogum’s reaction to cats hasn’t been observed yet, so her compatibility with feline friends is unknown.



With a balanced energy level, Sogum loves outdoor adventures and walks but is equally content to relax quietly afterward. She’s an excellent walking companion, moving at a steady pace and staying right by her person’s side without pulling. She’s unfazed by cars or other loud noises, making her calm and reliable during walks.



This sweet girl has impeccable manners. She doesn’t guard her food, rarely barks, and even welcomes strangers without hesitation. Sogum is quiet and composed in a kennel and prefers outdoor potty breaks.



If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who will shower you with love and loyalty, Sogum might just be the perfect fit for your family.

More about this rescue

Adopt Korean Rescue is a volunteer-based federally registered not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and unwanted dogs in South Korea find a new home in Canada.

We love Korean dogs. Many of them live in chains, give birth on the side of the road, or wander around with their pups. Some of them get caught and end up at dog meat farms or high-kill shelters in South Korea. They luckily meet us just before euthanasia or after many years of living in dog meat farms. We exist to hold their paws and help them find a forever home in Canada full of joy and happiness.

Our dog rescue work depends on our flight volunteers. They help us safely bring our dogs from Korea to Vancouver or Toronto airports, where the dogs will find loving forever or foster homes.
