My story

💕 Her Story Hi! I’m Madeleine. I am a 10-month-old Jindo mix with a rare brown and white coat, hazel eyes, and a cute pink nose that everyone says makes me extra special. I was born in a shelter, and when I turned 8 months old, the shelter sadly had to send me to the city shelter due to low funds, where I would have been at risk of euthanasia. Thankfully, a kind worker from a training center who had adopted my sibling months before rescued me and my mom just in time. 🐾 Her Personality Because I was born at a shelter, I’ve never had bad experiences with people — but I also wasn’t properly socialized, so I can be a little shy at first. Still, I love people and wag my tail excitedly when I see my favorite humans 🥰 I’m learning that cuddles and pets are wonderful, and every day I’m becoming braver. I love going on walks — even when new things make me nervous, I keep going and sniff every scent I find! I’m also great with other dogs — playful but gentle, and I even share my snacks. Like a true Jindo, I’m loyal and alert — I might bark when someone comes near the entrance of the home, but that’s just my way of keeping my loved ones safe. 🏡 Home Life & Training Since I’ve never lived in a home before, I’ll need a bit of help learning about house training and home manners. Sometimes, if I’m left alone for too long, I might feel anxious or get a little curious (puppy-style mischief!). But with patience, love, and a consistent routine, I’ll grow into a confident, well-behaved companion. Special Detail One really special thing about me — my rescuers have baby pictures of me, as well as photos of my mom and sibling! It’s so rare for rescue dogs, and it means my future family will get to see my whole little family tree 🤧💞 💗 Her Dream Home Madeleine is looking for a loving family who can give her time to build trust and confidence, offer patience and gentle guidance,aintain a calm environment and stable routine. A bonus would be to have another friendly dog for her to learn from and play with 🥰
