Terry

My story

QUICK FACTS Name: Terry Age: About 4 Years Old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Poodle Color: Brown Weight: 4.85kg / 10.7lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from a neglected situation back in 2025. Because of that, my back legs developed a curve, but I’ve adapted well and continue to live happily every day. Now I’m safe, full of love, and ready to start a new chapter with a caring forever family.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues Patellar surgery & fully recovered   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Terry, a smart and gentle Poodle with lots of love to give. I’m calm, with a sweet and affectionate personality that shines through once you get to know me. I absolutely love people and enjoy being close to my humans. I do have a tiny bit of jealousy sometimes because I love attention, but overall I’m well-mannered and gentle. I’m intelligent, affectionate, and eager to connect with my person. I’m a dog looking for a family who will understand my need for companionship and help me grow into a confident, secure pup. I promise to return your care with endless love and loyalty.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I might feel a bit shy when we first meet, but if you offer me a yummy treat, I’ll happily take it and warm up to you quickly. Before long, we’ll be friends and you’ll be able to lift me and hold me in your arms and pet me too! I haven’t had the chance to meet children under 13 yet, but with careful introduction, I’m sure I’ll get along great with them. · With Dogs: I like to walk up and say hello to new dogs. I’m friendly and curious, but I like to take things slow at my pace. However, if another dog provokes me, I will stand my ground. A careful introduction to new dogs is recommended. With calm and respectful introductions, I can do well around other friends. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have moderate energy level – I enjoy outdoor activities like walks and exploring, and after some fun outside, I’m happy to settle down and rest quietly at home.I can get pretty excited on walks and may pull on the leash, especially when I want to go in a certain direction. But I do like to follow my person and stay connected. With a little guidance and consistent practice, I can learn great walking manners and become an even better walking buddy!   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food — not from people and not from other dogs. I’m very easygoing at mealtime.I can have some separation anxiety, and I really prefer being close to my people. With time, patience, and a consistent routine, I can learn to feel more secure.Sometimes when I want something — like attention or affection — I might bark to let you know.When I’m in a kennel, I may whine a little, but I’m not loud—I just like knowing you’re nearby. I can use both indoor pee pads and go potty outside, so I can adjust to your routine. In new places, I might feel the urge to mark at first. With guidance, I can learn the house rules.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together A family that will love and cherish me forever   SPECIAL NOTES I can be a little attached, so I might show some signs of separation anxiety—but with enough bonding, consistency, and the right guidance, I can improve a lot. If you give me a stable routine and calm energy, I’ll feel more secure and relaxed. In new places, I might feel the urge to mark at first. With guidance, I can learn the house rules.     Terry's Youtube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2688965##
