Taemi

My story

Hello there. My name is Taemi, and I’m a 3-year-old Jindo mix girl. My story started in a scary place—I was found near a highway tollgate and ended up in a city shelter, waiting for a fate I don’t want to think about. But then, someone gave me a second chance, and now I’m here, hoping to find my forever family. I’ll be honest—I’m a little shy at first. When I meet new people, I like to take my time to observe and understand them. But I promise, I’m not overly fearful. If you’re patient and let me come to you, I’ll soon feel safe enough to let you pet me. And once I trust you, I’ll even roll over and show you my belly—it’s my way of saying, “You’re my person.” I’m a quiet and gentle soul. I rarely bark, and I prefer a calm, peaceful environment. My energy level is on the lower side—I enjoy spending time indoors, resting in my cozy spot. I don’t mind being alone sometimes, but I also love sharing quiet moments with someone I trust. I get along well with children and other dogs. I don’t mind little ones running around, and I never show aggression. With other dogs, I’m polite and friendly, though I don’t always feel the need to play. I especially like smaller dogs and will approach them with gentle curiosity. As for cats, well… I’m still figuring them out. When I met one indoors, I didn’t really pay much attention. But outside on a walk? Hmm, I do get a bit curious. Speaking of walks, I enjoy them! I don’t rush or pull—I prefer a slow, relaxed pace, taking in all the scents and sights around me. I also do most of my potty business outside, and I rarely have accidents indoors. I know I’m not the type to run up to you, tail wagging like crazy. But if you’re the kind of person who understands that love sometimes takes time, I promise I’ll be worth the wait. I dream of a home that is peaceful and steady, with someone who will be patient with me as I learn to open my heart. If you’re looking for a loyal, quiet, and loving companion, I’d love to be your girl. Let’s take things slow together, and I’ll show you just how much love I have to give.
