This very handsome boy has been at the shelter since mid December. He came from Busan where he was found wandering in front of a vet clinic in October. They said he is healthy and between 5-6 years old. My best guess is that he is a cocker spaniel & poodle mix based on his physical features and easy going yet very energetic demeanor. He is always jumping and ready to go, but when you get to his cage, he is quite timid and takes a few minutes to let you put a collar on him. Once you've done that though, you've sealed the deal and he is a friend for life. He has a lot of love to give and actually hugs you with all four of his long legs when you hold him. :) He loves to walk and run, but has an interesting gate. It appears as though his back left leg has been broken and healed wrong, but it doesn't seem to bother him or slow him down. He is very excited and very friendly with other dogs. And yes- he has the most beautiful, long eyelashes to go with his gorgeous face. He was very patient while we cleaned up his face, eyes, and ears. Please consider Curly - the beautiful, hugging dog. :)
(note- in the narration of the video i call him a girl multiple times. i was thrown off by the pink sweater. Curly is indeed a boy. And to Curly- Sorry for calling your leg wonky! I know that it is still strong and gets you where you need to go!)

Hi I was just surfing the internet and found this picture of Curly. It's from one of Korean ladies who volunteers at the busan shelter he came from. And Very good news! He's neutered. He was very healthy too when he stayed in Busan. I hope he can find a forever home soon!!!!

Curly was his usual adorable self at the shelter today. He is now in with all the other dogs in the pen around the back and is itching to get out! He needs a good bath, haircut and some TLC...anyone?

This is Curly hollering "Pick Me! Pick Me! I want to go for a walk!" He is in the small dog pen running around but LOVES one on one time. (picture courtesy of Melissa Jean)
