My story

QUICK FACTS Name: Hosu Age: About 5 Years Old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Jindo Mix Color: Brindle Weight: 20kg / 44lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from the euthanasia list at a municipal shelter, and that moment gave me a second chance at life. Thanks to the kindness and compassion of my rescuers, I now have the opportunity to look ahead to a brighter future. I'm ready to leave my past behind and begin a new journey with a loving family to call my own.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutered & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY Hi, I'm Hosu! I may be a big boy, but my heart is even bigger. From the very first day I arrived, I acted as if I had lived there forever—happily greeting new people with a bright smile, following them around, and making friends within minutes. I absolutely love being around people and have a warm, easygoing personality that makes me a wonderful companion. With other dogs, I'm generally very polite and get along well, especially with dogs I know. While I don't have much interest in roughhousing or wild play sessions, I enjoy peaceful coexistence and have never been one to look for trouble. I simply appreciate respectful introductions and prefer dogs who mind their manners, just like I do. Sometimes my large size makes people overlook just how gentle and affectionate I am, but once we meet, you'll quickly discover that I'm a lovable softie who just wants to be by your side. If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a calm nature and a heart full of love, I can't wait to meet you.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I absolutely love people and never hesitate to make new friends! Whether we've known each other for a long time or we're meeting for the very first time, I'll happily come over for attention, lean against you, and enjoy all the pets and affection you have to offer. While I love being close to my people, I prefer to keep all four paws on the ground and don't particularly enjoy being picked up. I haven't had the opportunity to meet children under 13 yet, so I'm still looking forward to discovering what they're like. · With Dogs: I'm polite and well-mannered around other dogs. I'll usually walk over to say hello when we meet, but I'm not particularly interested in playing and often prefer to do my own thing. While I generally don't pay much attention to other dogs, I appreciate calm and respectful introductions. If another dog is overly pushy or confrontational, I may stand up for myself, so thoughtful introductions and proper management help me feel comfortable and set everyone up for success. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have moderate energy level – I have a balanced energy level and enjoy spending time outdoors exploring and going for walks. After I've had some exercise and fresh air, I'm happy to settle down and relax by your side. I'm an experienced walker with good leash manners, so I stay close to my person, follow well, and enjoy our adventures together without pulling on the leash.   TRAINING & HABITS I'm easygoing around people during mealtime and don't feel the need to guard my food. When I'm eating, though, I prefer a little personal space from other dogs and may give a warning growl if one gets too close. If there's something I really want, I might let you know with a little bark—I like communicating with my people! I'm calm and relaxed in my kennel I'm comfortable using both indoor pee pads and going outside for potty breaks. I may be tempted to mark in new environments, but with guidance, routine, and consistency, I can continue developing good habits in my new home.   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    HOSU'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.co ##2772841##
