Samdol

My story

ALL ABOUT ME  Name: Samdol Age: 5 months old (Born on March 2025) Gender: Male Spayed/Neutered: Yes Breed: Jindo mix Colour: White/Beige Weight: 10kg / 22lbs (still growing!) Microchipped: Yes   MY RESCUE STORY Hi there! My name is Samdol. I was rescued from a heartbreaking neglect situation. My previous owners made me live outside of a delivery office, offering me no proper care or love. When the company moved away, they heartlessly abandoned me, leaving me to fend for myself all alone. Thankfully, kind-hearted rescuers noticed my situation and gave me a second chance at life. Now, I’m ready to leave my past behind and find a forever family who will cherish me and show me what it truly means to be loved.   MY HEALTH Fully vaccinated (5-round series complete) I’ve been neutered and have no known health issues.   MY PERSONALITY I’m still a young pup, just about 5 months old. Even though my past wasn’t the best, I don’t let that hold me back — I’m a bright, sweet, and clever boy who’s growing and learning every day. I love playing with my toys and I’m already picking up commands quickly (I can sit and give my paw!). When other dogs get a little pushy, I’m the calm one who avoids any drama. New places can make me a bit shy at first, but once I get comfortable, I warm up quickly and show my true friendly self.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I’m a little shy around new people at first, but with a few treats, I warm up quickly. Being a young pup, I’m still learning about the world and discovering how wonderful human companionship can be. Just give me a bit of time, and soon enough, I’ll be happily enjoying pets and cuddles. I have a soft spot for kids—maybe because I’m still a kid myself! I do allow being picked up, but I need some trust built first; I don’t like it when strangers pick me up suddenly. Once I feel comfortable, I love showing my belly as a sign of trust. And don’t worry—I don’t guard my food against people at all.   With Dogs:  I’m super friendly with dogs and love making new furry friends to play with! I enjoy relying on other dogs and would do great with a calm, confident sibling who can show me the ropes. I get along well with dogs of all sizes, and even if another pup is being rude, I gently remove myself from the situation to keep the peace. When it comes to my food, I like to have my space—if other dogs come too close while I’m eating, I’ll growl to let them know I need to be left alone.   With Cats: I haven’t met any cats yet, so I’m not sure how I’d get along with them. I do love to chase birds whenever I see one, so I’d do best in a home without small animals to keep everyone safe and happy.   ENERGY AND ACTIVITIES Surprisingly for a young pup, my energy level isn’t too wild—I have a moderate energy level. I love spending time outdoors chasing birds, playing with my friends, and exploring the world around me. After all that fun, I enjoy resting indoors, snuggling up comfortably in my bed.   TRAINING & HABITS I’m still figuring out this big world and learning my social skills every day. Sometimes I pull on the leash, but I generally follow my handler’s lead well. During walks, I’m more interested in sniffing around and exploring than rushing from place to place. I don’t have separation anxiety right now, but I might develop some once I get attached to my special person or family. Being a young pup, I’m confident that with patience and training, I’ll learn to feel comfortable staying home alone. I do bark when I see strangers—that “stranger danger” alert!—but I quickly calm down once I realize they’re friends, not foes. I also bark when I want attention. I already know how to get on and off the car, which makes outings easier. I potty both indoors and outdoors, but with a steady walk routine, I’ll gradually prefer going outside only. MY IDEAL HOME I’m looking 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 offers a safe, structured, and calm environment. A family that enjoys spending quality time together indoors & outdoors. A family that can shower me with love and attention. A family that understands I’m a young pup and I will need guidance in socialization and confidence training so I can learn to become a fine young man.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m a young pup with so much potential waiting to shine! Don’t let my initial shyness fool you—I truly love human company and open up easily once I feel safe. I’m a smart boy who loves to please and learn new things, especially since I have a healthy appetite that makes training a breeze. I get along well with other dog friends, but I’m also content entertaining myself when needed. While I know how to sleep alone, I really enjoy curling up by your feet for comfort. My current foster family says I’m a sweet boy who deserves all the love in the world. I even get along great with their senior dog, though they wish they could give me more of their undivided attention because I’m so deserving.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Samdol’s YouTube Playlist ##2487545##
