Story

Meet Kuku🧡 Kuku is one of Danpoong’s five puppies. On a bitter winter day, Danpoong was brought to Koren city shelter, where she gave birth to five puppies and suffered from monge. After Adogs rescued them, the other puppies found their forever homes but Kuku and his mom Danpoong are still waiting for their family. * Interaction with people : Loves people so he greets familiar ones with kisses. Gets scared or barks at strangers who approach swiftly, though. Hides to the room after barking with fear at new people who visit home. Warms up shortly if they take time and approach him slowly. * Interaction with dog: Greets nicely other dogs and plays well with them with quick adaptation. Feels comfortable to greet other dogs calmly one by one and gets scared if too many dogs come at him all at once. * Interaction with Cats: Sniffs calmly at cats who stay still but tries to chase running cats. Attention is required. * Separation Anxiety: None at all! Plays or sleeps alone very well even without humans around. * Potty training: Prefers outdoor potty but uses indoor pads with 100% accuracy. No marking. * Hygiene: Dislikes baths as he had weekly medicated baths but gets through it well. Is scared of the blow dryer. Is afraid of having toenails trimmed and tries to nip. His nail length is being controlled with regular walks. * Walks: Has excellent walking manners so he walks beside the walker very well. May pull on the lead when dogs, birds, cats or other animals pass by swiftly. May get nervous and bark when a person suddenly comes running in his direction and is going through training. * Car Sickness: May vomit when he rides the car over 30 minutes. It would be better not to feed him before car rides. * Has mastered commands like 'sit, shake, down, nose, chin’ and is a quick learner. * Has a good appetite, so he may growl when you try to touch his snack. * May get nervous and try to bite defensively when a stranger comes to touch him suddenly. * Is scared and sometimes barks when he hears sudden or unfamiliar noises, but stops very soon. * Gets scared easily, but also is a very curious dog. Shows a lot of affection when you become close to him!

Meet Melon!! He is a gentle and affectionate boy who wants to be loved :) Behaviours from foster home : Melon is a bit shy, but he is a very sweet and a lovely boy who loves his people and want to be loved by his hoomans :) He can be a bit timid and shy at first time. It would be appreciated, if you could give him some time to get used to his new family and new environment ;) But, once he gets comfortable- he will shine and show his all the love to his pawrents :D He is good with other doggie friends, also he's never showed any aggressive behavior to other dogs. He even likes cat friends, even though they don't like him. haha~ He is great with kids. He might be afraid of male adult in the beginning, but he will get more comfortable with time. He is good with bathing and grooming. His shedding is about 5 out of 10, and his energy level is about 6 out of 10. Also, he is NOT a picky eater at all :) He is also good on his walk. He might get excited when he sees other doggie or cat friends, but once he passes them, he will be on his way. The things he likes are going for a walk, sllippers and hide and seek in the house :) He doesn't like when someone touches his hind foot, but he will get comfortable with time. He gets a little uncomfortable when people hold him, so he will appreciate gentle approach :) He is pee-pad trained 100%, but only with the artifical grass pad. He is not a big barker and he doen't have separation anxiety. Melon may be a bit shy and timid at first time, but he is such a sweetheart and he is very gentle and loving~ Would you be his loving pawrents? :) Allergy/health issues : He hasn't showed any allergy issue. He is a sweet, healthy boy!! :) *Please send all inquiries to @everlove8282. *Please submit your applications through the application form on our Instagram profile! Our team will carefully consider each of your applications to find the perfect forever homes for our dogs. *As all of our dogs are currently in South Korea, there will be an adoption fee of 700USD + customs fee (if applicable) for each dog.

Abby

German Shepherd Dog

Female, Adult

Westwood, NJ

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Have you ever heard the song lyrics “She’s a little runaway”? We think that was written about Abby. Abby is a gentle 3½-year-old shepherd mix weighing 25-30 lbs. She was rescued almost 2 years ago from Mississippi. We recently discovered a healed fracture in her femur which occurred before her rescue. You’d never know from looking at her or watching her walk. Too bad she can’t tell us what happened as it might give us clues to her past. Abby is a sweet girl but is still learning that the best place to explore is alongside her human. Abby has been placed for adoption twice but was surrendered each time due to her tendency to escape. She ran off of multiple times from her last home! Her most recent adventure had her on her own for three days, and she’s still recovering emotionally and physically from that experience. Abby hasn’t shown much affection in her previous homes, likely due to lingering anxiety and not knowing how to be part of the family. She’ll need a calm, patient, and understanding environment—ideally with strong human leadership and a confident resident dog to help her feel secure and supported. Abby craves an environment and a routine that meets her emotional and physical needs. A secure, fenced yard is a must, but Abby will need to constant supervision, as she has a knack for finding her way out if an opportunity presents. With the right home, time, and love, Abby can learn to trust and share her affectionate side. Could you and your dog be the ones to give her the stability and care she deserves? Abby’s adopters will be supported in their work with Abby through training. Peace4Paws will provide a training package with a professional dog trainer who has worked with Abby previously. Think Abby is the right girl for you? Apply on a computer or laptop at www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application. If you have specific adoption or foster questions, please email: judy.atchison@yahoo.com THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN RESCUING A DOG!
