Meet Sunny (Haetnim)- The Sweet, Social White Beauty Breed: Jindo Mix Age: Approximately 1.5 years old Gender: Female Weight: 17 kg Height: 50 cm, ground to shoulder Origin: South Korea Highlights: Social • Gentle • Affectionate • Well-Trained • Dog/Cat/Kid FriendlyA Winter Rescue StoryHaetnim was born in a redevelopment area in Ansan, South Korea, during the freezing winter of December 2024. Her mother had been abandoned after her owner moved away and gave birth to three puppies inside a torn vinyl greenhouse with no proper shelter. When rescuers found them, the puppies were only about 50 days old and fully dependent on their mother. Without rescue, they were at serious risk from the cold. Thankfully, Haetnim was rescued with her mother and siblings. She was healthy at the time of rescue and has since grown up safely at the DoReMi shelter, receiving her vaccinations and living around dogs and cats. She has become a bright, affectionate, and well-socialized young dog who is now ready for a family of her own. Personality & CharmHaetnim is a friendly, gentle, and affectionate girl with a bright personality. She does well even with new people and becomes even sweeter once she feels close to someone. She enjoys human affection and will come near to ask for pets. She likes being close to people and is comfortable with gentle handling. If she feels startled or unsure, she calmly goes into her kennel rather than reacting negatively. Haetnim has also spent time learning with students in a companion animal education program, which helped her develop good manners and confidence around people. She is social with other dogs, gentle with younger puppies, and has lived peacefully with cats. She also has experience being around children. With her soft white coat, fox-like face, and sweet smile, Haetnim is even more beautiful in person than in photos. Best HomeHaetnim could do well in many types of homes, including a home with another friendly dog, cats, or respectful children. She may also be suitable for a first-time adopter who can continue her routine and training with kindness and consistency. Because she is outdoor potty trained and enjoys walks, she needs a family who can provide regular outdoor time and daily exercise. Apartment living may be possible with enough walks, and a home with a yard would be a bonus. A very elderly household may not be the best fit if regular walks would be difficult, as Haetnim is active outdoors and needs a consistent potty routine.
