JENNY - Jindo Dog for Adoption in Springfield, Virginia

Jenny is a lovely Jindo mix with a gentle, happy personality. She may be a little reserved when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, she becomes affectionate, playful, and very loyal to her family.

She enjoys food (a lot!), likes playing with dogs her own size, and has a healthy, fun energy level. Jenny prefers calm, secure walks and does best with a confident handler, as loud noises like motorcycles can sometimes startle her.

Home requirements:
Jenny needs a home without cats or small dogs, as she has a strong prey drive toward them. She can do well with medium to large dogs who match her play style.

With patience and consistency, Jenny settles in beautifully and becomes a devoted companion. Shes looking for a family who will give her time, love, and a safe place to call home and shell give her whole heart in return.

**Adoption Fee:** $475

### Please Note###

*Jenny is currently living in a foster home in Korea. Once she is adopted, she will be transported to the U.S. Because of this, we are unable to arrange in-person meet-and-greets. We are happy to provide detailed information, photos, and videos to help you get to know her.
* We do not recommend leaving dogs alone for more than 4 hours. If you expect to be away longer, we strongly encourage doggy daycare or another appropriate care option.
* We typically do not adopt to homes with children under 8 years old.
* Applicants must be at least 25 years old and live within a 45-minute driving distance of Springfield, Virginia (Northern Virginia and the Washington, DC suburbs only).
* A home check is required before adoption.
* Applicants must have a social media account so we can receive post-adoption updates. We monitor all adopted pets to ensure they continue to thrive.
* Once your application is approved, we will request a copy of your identification through a secure app and/or complete a background screening.

Many of our rescue dogs had very little socialization before entering our program. As a result, skills such as house training, leash walking, and adjusting to family life may take a little extra time. Patience, understanding, and gentle guidance are essential. The good news is that most of our dogs adapt remarkably well, and helping them blossom into confident family companions is an incredibly rewarding experience.


*** About us ***
Hope For Donghae Paws(HDP) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to bringing rescue dogs from Korea to the US and finding permanent homes for them. It is true there are many animal lovers in Korea, but still many dogs suffer and are killed for food.
Our mission is to find US homes for mixed-breed dogs whose chances of being adopted in their native Korea are very low.

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.
