Hoah

My story

QUICK FACTS Name: Hoah Age: About 1 Year Old (Born in February, 2025) Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Border Collie – Jindo Mix Color: Brown Weight: 11kg / 24lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was born in a shelter. My mom arrived there while she was still pregnant with me, and that’s where my story began. Even in a place that wasn’t really meant for growing up, I learned to be gentle, to find comfort, and to stay hopeful. Now, I’m ready to discover something new— a real home, a warm bed, and someone to call my own.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Spayed & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I’m Hoah, a curious little explorer with a playful, goofy heart. I see the world with wide eyes and endless curiosity — everything is interesting, everything is exciting! I’m cheerful, playful, and full of curiosity. I love exploring, moving, and discovering new things — sometimes I get a little distracted because there’s just so much to see! But I’m also people focused. I’m interested in people and want to connect. I just need a little time at first in new places. But once I trust you? I become incredibly gentle, sweet, and easygoing — a total softie. With my curious, slightly scattered personality (some say I’ve got that Collie-style energy), I’ll thrive with someone who can guide me, play with me, and help me focus my energy in a positive way. I’m not just playful — I’m full of potential. If you’re someone who enjoys an active, curious companion and wants to grow together, learn together, and laugh a lot along the way, I think we’d have something really special!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I’m a sweet and gentle soul who loves being close to people. I might be just a tiny bit shy at first, but give me a treat and a moment, and I’ll warm up to you quickly. Before you know it, I’ll be walking up to you on my own, leaning in and softly rubbing against you like we’ve known each other forever. You can even pet me and scoop me up with your arms under my belly — I’ll stay relaxed, happy just being held close to you. I haven’t had the chance to meet children under 13 yet, so I may just need a little time and gentle introductions. · With Dogs: When it comes to other dogs, I’m all about friendly vibes. Whether we’ve met before or not,I’ll happily walk up, say hello, and invite them to play. I enjoy making new friends and sharing little moments together, and I naturally approach others with a gentle, open heart. Even if another dog isn’t so friendly,I’d rather avoid trouble and walk away than get into a conflict. I’m not here for drama — just connection, calm energy, and good company. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have high energy level – I really enjoy getting plenty of exercise outside. Once I’ve had enough time to run around and explore, I’m happy to come home and rest calmly by your side. On walks, I can get a little excited and pull sometimes, but I do listen and naturally like to follow my person. I feel most comfortable in quiet, peaceful areas where I can relax and enjoy the moment. Busy roads with lots of cars can be a bit scary for me, so I’d love someone who understands that and helps me feel safe.   TRAINING & HABITS When it comes to food, I’m very relaxed — I don’t guard it from people or other dogs, so mealtime stays easy and stress-free. I’m usually a quiet dog, but when I see someone new, I might give a little bark at first — just my way of saying, “Hey… who’s that?” My kennel can make me feel a bit unsure, so I might whine at first, but with patience and reassurance, I’m learning it’s a safe, cozy space. I prefer doing my business outside, so I’d love a routine with regular walks and fresh air.   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    HOAH'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.co ##2697714##
