My personality

My story

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

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️
💟Available to fly to Vancouver & Toronto💟

Meet Liel💝

Liel had been staying on the street and was brought to the Jeonju City Shelter. Meanwhile, the Jeonju City Shelter was closed, and she was assigned to a veterinary clinic with #AdogsLian and placed on the euthanasia list. Adogs urgently rescued her without any delay to save her.

• With People: Liel is curious but cautious around new people. If given time and space to explore at her own pace, she warms up well. With people she knows, she becomes very affectionate and loves being close.
• With Dogs: She can get overwhelmed by large or overly energetic dogs, but does well with similarly sized or smaller dogs. She carefully approaches bigger dogs to sniff, but prefers calmer company. When she forms bonds with dog friends, she becomes deeply attached and even whines when saying goodbye.
• With Cats: She shows curiosity and tries to approach, so supervision is needed when interacting with cats.
• Separation Anxiety: Generally does well alone. She may briefly whine near the door but quickly settles down to rest.
• Potty Training: She consistently uses pee pads indoors at set times and locations. She prefers to poop outside when given the chance.
• Grooming & Handling: She doesn’t love baths or drying, but she tolerates them with reassurance. She enjoys gentle brushing—especially when lying on her favorite cushion.
• Walks & Leash Training: Liel is very curious and loves sniffing during walks. She may pull on the leash when excited, especially when encountering unfamiliar environments, loud sounds, or crowded places. She sometimes freezes or shakes when scared, so a calm walking route and desensitization training are helpful. She also gets excited when seeing dogs or cats and wants to approach.
• Car Rides: She can get motion sick on longer rides (around 1 hour) and may pant or show discomfort.

💌Special Notes💌

• Knows “Sit” and “Wait”
• Grain-based food may not suit her—currently being monitored
• Has a big appetite, so she uses a slow feeder bowl
• May bark or whine when she sees another dog she wants to greet or hears unfamiliar sounds—training is ongoing to prevent demand barking
• Sometimes softly growls when an unfamiliar man enters the house, but calms down when allowed to sniff and greeted gently
• Enjoys gentle nibbling during play. When excited, she may nip at feet or ankles playfully—this is being addressed through redirection and training
• Startles easily at loud noises or sudden movements
• Bright and quick to learn, with a curious and adventurous spirit—she enjoys exploring and picking up new routines

❗Health Status❗
* Spayed: Done
* Tested negative for heartworm

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All our dogs fly from South Korea to the US and Canada 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.
