Danbi has been officially adopted by her foster mom with the maltese rescue! She lives with several other maltese and has started paying visits to the rehab center to comfort people with her sweet nature :) No bad for an ex-puppy mill doggie!

Danbi charms everyone who meets her. She looks like a harmless little maltese... one of many, maybe even hundreds in Korea... but she has a sad story. You see, Danbi grew up and lived in a puppy mill for years. A kindly vet rescued her, where she lived in his clinic learning to trust people, yet not getting to experience the joys of living in a home.

Then her big chance came, and she's proving that she's tough and resilient once again. Even mundane things, things that most dogs wouldn't even twitch at, were new and scary. The blender? Scary. The slick floors? Scary. Being picked up way up high? Super scary! Slowly but surely she's discovered new and scary doesn't mean bad.

Danbi is a really relaxed little dog. She's pretty much silent, content to putter around and keep you company, loves other animals, good with older children/men/women. She's a combination of pee pad trained (during the day) and house broken (when someone is home to take her out). She gives kisses and tail wags frequently! She loves to go to the park and run around like a giant, fluffy, white bunny! BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE.

Even so, her trials aren't over. This little girl just couldn't catch a break. Because of where she grew up, her teeth and gums were rotting and infectious. They were painful and making her a miserable little girl. Luckily, with the help of a skilled surgeon and many, many kind donations, Danbi had surgery to fix her mouth.

Now she has a place in a home, but it is not her own, and her good luck turn won't be complete until she is. She needs her own person and her own house to finish her incredible journey. Are you Danbi's hero? If you think you can be that person to help her bloom and grow, please contact either myself or Shelley with an application form! She had a rocky start, but if you have some time and patience, you won't be disappointed in this sweet little girl, I swear.

Danbi's quirks:
-she is slow and methodical
-she really enjoys other animals and would do well with another dog or cat to keep company
-she likes to cuddle but it still scares her a little with strangers

DHPPL series (3 shots)
Revolution monthly (heartworm preventative)

Megs, you're not alone. My friend also really wanted to adopt her but wasn't the "right" time. He was so sad/disappointed when I told him she flew out of Incheon last night.
