Kkosyong

My story

QUICK FACTS Name: Kkosyong Age: 8 years old (Born January 2018) Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Pomspitz Color: White Weight:  6kg / 13lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from an illegal puppy farm, where I never had the chance to experience the safe and loving life every dog deserves. Thankfully, I was given a second chance and those difficult days are now behind me. I’m ready to start a brand new chapter with a forever family who will cherish me, shower me with love, and finally show me what it feels like to truly belong.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Healthy with no known health issues During a routine health check in January 2026, I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia in both hips. The good news is that I’m currently showing no related symptoms and am doing well!   MY PERSONALITY Don’t let my age fool you! I may be a little older, but I still look and act like an adorable puppy. I can be shy when we first meet, but it doesn’t take long for me to warm up, especially when treats are involved! I have a great appetite, which makes me eager to learn and gives me so much potential with positive training. The volunteers say I’m even cuter in person and look just like a little doll. I also get along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoy having canine friends around. With my youthful spirit, sweet personality, and willingness to learn, I have so much love and happiness to bring to my future family.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I can be a little shy when we first meet, but with some patience and a few tasty treats, I warm up quickly and will happily take treats right from your hand. I did wonderfully during my profile photoshoot and showed everyone just how sweet I can be! Since I didn’t have much opportunity for socialization earlier in life, I simply need a little extra time and understanding while I adjust to new people and environments. I’m comfortable being picked up and enjoy gentle affection, but I also have an independent side and appreciate having some peaceful time to myself. I happily accept pets when I’m in the mood, but I don’t need constant cuddles to feel loved. As tempting as my adorable face may be, I’ll appreciate a family who understands my boundaries and lets me come to them at my own pace. · With Dogs: I’m a friendly and social girl who enjoys meeting new dog friends! I happily greet new dogs and get along wonderfully with dogs of all different sizes. Whether they’re big or small, I’m always happy to make a new canine friend and enjoy their company. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to ensure the best fit.   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level. I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring, and having fun, but once I’ve had my activity and excitement, I’m more than happy to come inside and relax comfortably indoors.   TRAINING & HABITS I have great manners around food and don’t guard my meals from either people or other dogs. I also walk nicely on leash and follow my handler’s lead well, making me an enjoyable walking companion. I can occasionally bark when I’m looking for attention or when I first meet someone unfamiliar, but I settle down quickly once I realize everything is okay. I am a Pomspitz, after all, so I have to use my voice sometimes! I already know how to rest calmly in my kennel and am comfortable having quiet time on my own. I prefer doing my potty business outdoors and naturally like to keep myself and my space nice and clean.   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 • Understanding of my shy nature and willing to be patient while I come out of my shell   SPECIAL NOTES My original Korean name translates to “flower blossom.” Since it can be a little tricky to pronounce, I was given the adorable nickname Kkosyong! Just like a flower waiting for its time to bloom, I’m ready to blossom into the wonderful companion I know I can be. With a little love, patience, and encouragement, I can’t wait to show my forever family all the potential and love I have inside me.   KKOSYONG'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2818185##
