Autumn (Gaeul) - Pomeranian Dog for Adoption in Springfield, Virginia

Autumn (Gaeul) Pomeranian Mix Female 8 Years Old, 12 lbs

Gaeul is a sweet, independent 8-year-old Pomeranian mix looking for a loving forever home. She enjoys walks, playing with small toys and balls, and staying active. She is house-trained with pee pads, spayed, and up to date on routine care.

She prefers a calm environment and likes having her own space. Gaeul can be shy with new people and doesn't enjoy sudden handling, but she warms up with patience and trust. She is friendly with small dogs, ignores cats, and usually avoids young children.

She has mild separation anxiety and may howl briefly when left alone. She is also sensitive to small noises and can bark at unexpected sounds. She loves food, so a family committed to healthy weight management is ideal.

Gaeul would thrive with a patient adopter who respects her boundaries, enjoys daily walks, and can give her the stable, caring home she deserves.

Adoption Fee: $475

### Please Note###

*Gaeul 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.
