Lupi

Background: Lupi and his mother, Luli, were rescued from a city pound in Hampyeong, Korea, just before they were scheduled for euthanasia last summer. After spending time in a different boarding house, they joined us in December to prepare for adoption. Since then, Lupi has been living with other dogs at our boarding house, growing more confident each day.

Personality and Socialization: Lupi is a gentle and affectionate boy who starts off shy around strangers but warms up with time. Once he trusts someone, he becomes very sweet, snuggly, and loves smooches. He is more comfortable around women than men but continues to build confidence. Lupi loves playing with other dogs, especially those his size who are gentle and friendly. While he was once very attached to his mother, he has adjusted well to being around other dogs and is no longer dependent on her.

Behaviours: Lupi is smart, eager to learn, and well-behaved. He picks up on new routines quickly and has shown no destructive behaviors. He is comfortable in the car, at the vet, and during bath time. Though his leash experience is limited, he follows trusted handlers well and enjoys his walks. When Lupi meets strangers, he may bark at them a bit. A detached home with fewer visitors would be ideal, providing him with a calm and stable environment.

Health and Diet: Lupi is healthy and fully vetted. He has received a clean bill of health from the vet and is up to date on all vaccinations. He is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and has tested negative for parasites and heartworm. He also takes a monthly parasite preventative. Lupi eats dry kibble twice a day and has shown no allergies.

Ideal Home: Lupi would thrive in a home with another gentle and friendly dog to help guide him and boost his confidence. He would do best with experienced adopters who are patient and understanding. A calm and quiet detached house in a relaxed environment would be ideal, especially with someone who enjoys a peaceful lifestyle. Since he is more comfortable around women, having at least one female family member would be beneficial.

Lupi is such a loving and adorable boy who just needs time and patience to blossom. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate companion to share your life with, Lupi could be the perfect match!
