Adopting a rescue dog like Tol means committing to her growth and comfort. She is not a toy—she’s a young dog with feelings, a past, and the potential to flourish in the right home. Her behavior may change as she adjusts to a new environment. The 3-3-3 rule (3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to settle in, 3 months to feel home) applies. We’re looking for adopters who are patient, responsible, and willing to learn and support her needs.
About Tol
Tol was one of 19 puppies found abandoned in a box and brought to a high-kill municipal shelter in Hongseong, South Korea. Since rescue, she’s grown into a loving, playful, and smart pup in foster care. She’s crate-trained, affectionate, and always ready to learn—with lots of energy and a heart full of curiosity.
Personality & Temperament
• People: Shy at first but affectionate once trust is built. She loves attention from calm, patient women and has warmed up to some men, especially outdoors or when given space.
• Children: Some barking toward young kids (under 2nd grade age); best suited for homes with older or no children.
• Dogs: Loves meeting small dogs, gets excited and wants to play. Limited exposure to large dogs but has been polite during greetings.
• Cats/Wildlife: Will bark and try to chase cats or birds outside. Needs supervision.
Training & Behavior
• Potty Training: 80% pad trained; working toward full outdoor training.
• Commands: Knows sit, down, paw, nose, “house” (crate). Occasionally confused, but tries hard!
• Separation: Had early signs of separation anxiety that have improved with a routine.
• Crate: Fully crate-trained—goes in on command and sleeps there at night.
• Leash Walking: Pulls when excited; manageable with guidance.
• Car Rides: Whines briefly, then settles. No motion sickness.
• Barking: Barks at hallway sounds or when excited, but not excessive.
• Destruction: Rare—may chew socks or soft objects if bored.
• Bathing/Grooming: Nervous during baths and foot washes, dislikes hair dryers but tolerates towel drying. Loves tooth brushing!
Daily Routine (Example from Foster Home)
• Morning (9:00 AM): Breakfast + potty
• Afternoon (4–5 PM): 30–40 minute walk
• Evening (6:00 PM): Dinner
• Night (11:00 PM): Teeth brushing + potty
• Midnight: Bedtime in crate
• Alone time 2.5–4.5 hrs on some weekdays—does well
Health & Wellness
• Recovery: Healing well from patella luxation surgery
• Other Health: Occasionally coughs lightly at night (reverse sneezing)
• No known allergies
• Current Diet: Beef & Salmon based high-quality dry food
• Favorite Treats: Boiled egg, chicken, sweet potato, fruits and veggies
• Preventatives: Nexgard Spectra (last given May 1, 2025)
Play & Personality Favorites
• Loves: Tug games, squeaky toys, being chased
• Best Toy: Small shark plush
• Training Style: Learns well through gentle repetition and positive reinforcement
Ideal Home
Tol will thrive in a home that:
• Understands the 3-3-3 rule and is committed to a gradual adjustment
• Has someone home most of the time or a consistent schedule
• Is patient and willing to continue training and socialization
• Has no very young children
• Welcomes small, active dogs (multi-dog homes okay!)
• Uses positive reinforcement and is willing to seek professional help if needed
• Follows all safety protocols, including crate use, leash safety, and secure environments

Adoption Process:
Adoption Process at Never Alone Animal Rescue: 1. Fill out an adoption application with pictures and descriptions of your past or current pets. 2. We will send you a written questionnaire and schedule a 30-minute interview to discuss further. 3. We'll conduct a virtual or physical home visit and reference checks for a safe environment. 4. A two-week trial period will commence, and we need daily updates with photos and videos. 5. After a successful trial period, review and sign the adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee via Venmo. 6. You must obtain a Lyme disease vaccine and monthly prescriptions for tick, flea, and heartworm prevention with your vet. 7. Register your dog with your local government's dog licensing system and the Free Pet Chip Registry. Provide a picture of the harness, GPS tracker, martingale collar, and food.

At Never Alone Animal Rescue, our mission is to ensure every rescue dog—regardless of their past—finds a permanent, loving home where they are never alone again. We are a volunteer-driven, foster-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 88-2604020), dedicated to rescuing dogs from severe conditions such as illegal meat farms, kill shelters, and puppy mills, primarily in South Korea and Russia. In collaboration with trusted partners, we provide comprehensive medical care and prepare each dog for adoption, including spay/neuter procedures, vaccinations, and valid health certificates. We carefully match dogs with adopters across the United States and Europe through detailed interviews, reference checks, and home assessments tailored to each dog's unique needs. Each adoption begins with a two-week trial and monitoring to ensure a smooth, supported transition. Our ongoing commitment includes lifetime support to adopters. We believe every dog deserves safety, comfort, and love—not a life tethered outside or discarded when inconvenient. Our rescue stories move from hardship to hope, witnessing transformations as dogs experience care and affection, often for the first time. Never Alone is more than our name—it’s our promise to every dog, adopter, and volunteer involved in our journey: you are never alone.
