Meet teddy

Hi! My name is Teddy, and I am IN SOUTH KOREA waiting to be matched to a home in Los Angeles! I was rescued from the dog meat trade in South Korea by the DoVE Project. My fate would have been to live in fear and distress, watching dogs being led to slaughter for human consumption. DoVE Project heard about me, and now I am looking for my forever family!

ID/NAME: CARE23-033
SEX/WEIGHT/AGE: Male/50lbs/5 years old
BIRTH DATE: 3/1/2020
BREED: Jindo mix
VACCINATIONS/SPAY/NEUTER/HEALTH: Neutered / Healthy

BEHAVIOR: Teddy is a friendly and affectionate dog who enjoys human company. He may initially be cautious around strangers, but quickly warms up to them within a day or two. Teddy also gets along with dogs of all sizes, but he may avoid highly energetic dogs. Teddy has a moderate to low energy level. Teddy is well-behaved and walks calmly on a leash.

SIBLINGS/FAMILY: Teddy was rescued with his mate and 6 babies.

BACKGROUND: Teddy was rescued in Paju in April 2021 along with his mate and six puppies. At the time of the rescue, the injuries he sustained appeared to have narrowly avoided decapitation and left his neck looking as though it were rotting away. It was later discovered that he had been caught in a noose and had narrowly escaped death. Teddy was unable to bark due to the pain, but was very protective of his 6 puppies and their mother. The entire family was rescued together.

ABOUT JINDOS
Jindos are known for their fierce loyalty, high intelligence, rarely barking, and playful nature. They make great indoor family dogs, as Jindos are clean, easily housetrained, and faithful to family members. They are also mid-level active and love being socialized at dog parks, going on hikes, and joining the family on trips.

ABOUT OUR DOGS
DoVE dogs come from a traumatic background such as dog meat farms and slaughterhouses. While many of our dogs acclimate within a few months with consistency, structure, and patience, some of our more sensitive dogs can take longer to rehabilitate. It's important to note that these sensitive dogs are even more attuned to human emotions and behavior, making for a deeper connection human-dog connection. DoVE Project is committed to helping our adopters desensitize and socialize our dog meat trade survivors.

*********************************
DoVE Project operates a shelter in South Korea, where our dogs stay until they are matched with an adopter. In the US, our dogs stay in foster homes or in boarding, as we do not have a physical facility. These dogs are identified with "in LA" in their names.

Please note that we only adopt our pups in the Southern California area. Please check our website for more information regarding our adoption process, our mission, and adoption application: https://www.dove-project.org/adoption-process
