Taeyang

My story

🐾 Hi, I’m Taeyang! Will You Be My Family? 🐾 Woof woof! Hi there, future family! My name is Taeyang, which means “sun” in Korean—and just like the sun, I promise to bring warmth and happiness into your life! ☀️ I’m a 2-year-old Jindo mix, weighing in at 19kg of pure love. I may not be the biggest pup, but I’ve got a big heart (and some adorable short legs to match)! My coat is super special—it has rare brindle tiger stripes, making me one of a kind! 🐯✨ I love love LOVE humans! Whether you’re big or small, young or old, I’ll come right up to you with a happy wagging tail. Belly rubs? Yes, please! Cuddles? Oh, absolutely! I even met a 5th grader once and walked so nicely by their side. 🐶💖 Other dogs? I like them too! I enjoy playing and exploring with my furry friends. Sometimes, I get a little jealous if I see another dog getting all the attention (I mean, who wouldn’t?!), but I never get aggressive. I just want to be loved as much as possible! I’m really good in the car—I’ll either look out the window like a little explorer or just chill on a blanket. On walks, I start off excited (yay, adventure!), but after about 30 minutes, I settle down nicely. I’m working on my leash manners, and I’m improving every day! 🏃‍♂️🐾 I haven’t always had it easy. I was rescued from a rusty cage at a shelter in Korea, where I had a big wound on my back. It got so bad that the infection spread, and I had to go through a lot of treatments. But I’m a fighter, and I never gave up! My fur is still growing back, but I know I’ll be fully healed with time. Now, all I need is a family who will love me forever. I dream of a home where I can go on fun walks, take cozy naps, and give unlimited kisses to my humans. I’ll be your loyal companion, your cuddle buddy, and your best friend. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate pup who will love you unconditionally, I’m right here waiting for you. 💛🐶 Can’t wait to meet you! Love, Taeyang 🐾
