Teddy’s story began in Yeoju, South Korea. One day, a person walking their dog noticed Teddy following them. Even though he had a collar, he looked like he needed help. Teddy followed the person all the way to their house and ran inside as soon as the gate opened. Sadly, Teddy was covered in wounds and scars, showing that he had been mistreated in the past.

Because of his painful history, Teddy was very afraid of leashes. For a long time, he would panic or cry just by seeing one. It took two years of patience and love, but Teddy finally overcame his fear. Now, he knows that a leash means it is time for a fun walk! He has become a brave dog who truly loves his outdoor adventures.

Despite what he went through, Teddy is a very social and loving boy. He is a "kissing machine" who loves being around people and playing with other dog friends. Recently, Teddy moved to a foster home in Georgia, USA. Although some dogs take a long time to adjust to a new place, Teddy settled in almost immediately. He enjoys his meals, loves his treats, and is very polite to everyone he meets.

Teddy has worked hard to heal and trust humans again. The leash is no longer a source of fear for him, and he is now waiting for a different kind of string—the "invisible string of fate" that leads to his forever family. He is a healthy, well-behaved, and happy companion who is ready to fill your home with joy. Teddy has overcome everything to find you. Will you be the family he has been waiting for?

The Jindo, a Korean native breed renowned for its loyalty, courage, and intelligence, is highly prized for its unwavering loyalty to its family. This medium sized, spitz type dog has a distinctive double coat that sheds seasonally. Known for their independent nature, Jindos require early socialization and firm, consistent training. With a strong prey drive and territorial instincts, they excel as hunters and watchdogs. Their deep bonds with their owners make them loving companions, albeit not suitable for inexperienced owners.
