Description:
William says: "I enjoy getting out of my cage, but I do not like leashes very much. I am starting to understand how it works though. When I walk, it keeps the person near me, so neither one of us gets lost. I just started getting taken for walks more recently, so I am getting better with leashes and harnesses. Sometimes, I like to take a rest during a walk, but it is only for a minute or two."
Poor William's story is so heart breaking. He was born at the shelter, and has lived there his entire little life. He's never known constant love, or comfort, but has always been bumping elbows with too many puppy friends. It's amazing he's still such a kind, sweet, little guy. He needs a loving home, someone who is patient and caring. Can't you show him how nice life can be?
***William is still looking for his forever home. He's such a lovely, sweet boy- won't you stop by and meet him?***

What kind of special needs does William need? His story IS heartbreaking.

I selected "special needs" on William's profile because of the special care he will need after living in our shelter for so many years. I just want to be sure that whomever adopts William is aware that although he WILL be the perfect, loving, wonderful pet- he will need some extra love and care to get him to that point.

Yes, with some extra love and training, he would be a wonderful best friend! Corgis are best.

Sonyajin: would you foster or adopt him if someone were to be able to foster him until you arrive and get settled in Korea?

We discovered that William has quite the youthful spirit.
Sadly, William has had a couple of interest but no one to come thru for him. He is at least 6+ years old and has lived with the same handful of dogs for years. His home is a concrete floor and a small wood platform.
On initial meeting he is not too affectionate, would you be if you had been overlooked for 6+ years?! Can you imagine how many times he was hopeful that this was his time, just to be passed up by another human? Most dogs when you take them out of their cage to visit, they immediately start smelling everything around them. This doesnt mean there isnt a connection between you and them, it means the animal is catching up on doggie related "news." Additionally, they are going to start peeing immeidately. This is for two reasons, one they want a chance to leave their story behind and they do this by leaving your scent. Another reason is dogs naturally do not want to elimimate where they sleep, of course sometimes they must but many will hold it as long as possible hence going the first minute they are out of the cage.
Sadly, this behavior was misunderstood by two visitors to mean William was uninterested in them.
William will love to go on walks with you, he will love to play fetch, he will cherish a bed as he has never really had one before. But most of all William will enjoy just chilling out being ever so appreciative that you took notice of him, and did something to change his life.
Please consider giving this pup that has lived over 6+years on a concrete slab a chance at a warm home, good food, and bouncy balls to chase this Christmas.

He's indoors though isn't he so at least it's not as cold as Asan? He looks a little longer in the leg than you'd expect for a corgi. He's got quite a big dog family there it seems.
