Rover 2

Background: Rover was rescued from a puppy mill in Boryeong, Korea in the fall of 2023. After his rescue, he stayed at a local shelter. But while many people came looking for young, playful puppies, no one looked twice at Rover. He waited and waited, but no one came for him. Eventually, the shelter gave up hope of finding him a home.

When we heard about Rover’s story, we knew we had to help. He had already been through so much, and all he wanted was a quiet, loving home. This spring, Rover finally came into our care, and now he’s ready for the next chapter of his life.

Personality and Socialization: Rover is a quiet, gentle boy with a calm and low-energy nature. He’s happiest in a peaceful spot where he can relax, watch the world go by, and soak up the sunshine. He enjoys the company of humans and likes staying close to his person. He’s sweet in his own soft way and doesn’t demand attention—he just quietly loves being near you.

Rover is good with people—gentle, friendly, and not shy. With other dogs, he’s very submissive and polite. He avoids loud, hyper, or dominant dogs, but feels comfortable around calm, well-mannered ones. He’s never been in a fight and prefers peace and quiet over chaos. Rover hasn’t had experience with cats or young children. However, with slow and proper introductions, he would likely be fine—especially in a calm environment.

Behaviour: Rover is easy to care for. He’s calm in the car, well-behaved during baths and vet visits, and doesn’t bark or act out. He hasn’t shown any signs of separation anxiety and is not destructive. While he’s still learning leash walking, he follows his person nicely and enjoys his walks. He also uses pee pads when needed.

Health and Diet: Rover is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and takes monthly parasite prevention. He has no known allergies and eats dry kibble well. He recently had a full vet checkup, including dental work and scaling. Rover is healthy and ready for his forever home.

Ideal Home: Rover would do best in a calm, quiet home—perhaps with a senior or someone who works from home or even a single person. He doesn’t need much, just a peaceful space and someone to love. He’ll be okay being left alone for a few hours and will simply wait patiently for you to return.

Rover is a gentle and loyal companion. He may not be the bouncy puppy everyone rushes to adopt, but for the right person, he’ll be everything they’re looking for—a sweet, gentle, loyal friend who just wants to share a peaceful life together.

We believe there’s a perfect family out there waiting for him. Maybe it’s you.
