Whisky (S. Korea) HZ

Hi there, I'm Whisky Let me tell you a little about myself.Breed: Jindo mixAge: 11 MonthsGender: Male Weight: 39 lb Height: 17 inchesHighlight(s): Good with other dogs, affectionate, socialI spent a few months roaming the streets, and even though no one came looking for me, I never lost my friendly spirit. When we first meet, I might be a tiny bit shy, but give me a moment and I'll open up quickly. Once I trust you, I'm all about affection - I'm happy to be petted and I don't mind being picked up either.I'm still in my puppyhood, so I've got lots of energy and a big love for adventure. Walks are one of my favorite things! I follow my handler nicely and I love sniffing and exploring the world around me. I'm polite on leash and not reactive to other dogs - I really try to be a good boy.Speaking of dogs… I am SUPER social! For the past 7 months, I've been living with over 30 dogs, playing all day long. I'm playful, energetic, and love a good wrestle, but I also have great manners when meeting new dog friends. I've never shown aggression and I don't guard my food or toys from people or dogs.Kids don't bother me either - I've calmly walked past an elementary school without any issues. I've even met a cat! I was curious, but gentle.Right now, I'm still working on a few things. I can get anxious when left alone and may bark or whistle, but I don't try to escape. I'm about 90%% house-trained, I don't get carsick, and I'm eager to keep learning with the right family.If you're looking for a loving, playful, social pup who's ready to explore life by your side, I might just be your guy.

Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems.Basic training should be taken seriously, but should not begin until your dog is well settled in - at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home, check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you.The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs.Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live.Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if a dog has been determined to be good with children we will approve applicants with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website.
