NOTICE: No new content has been added since Animal Rescue Korea closed in 2014. Phone numbers, email addresses, shelter policies, and other details may be out of date. Information is kept for historical purposes only.
UPDATED: Mochi is calm, doesn't chew things up or zoom all around the place. He is friendly with people (but still scared to get too close to strangers) and fine with other animals (thdogs and cats) and rarely barks. He loves being petted and being made a fuss over. He still needs a little work with housebreaking, but that's about it (and to be expected from a dog who probably never had a home and a family, never been loved). Consider Mochi. He is REALLY well behaved and he learns fast.
Health status: about 6 months old, healthy, neutered.
Rescue story: Mochi was being given away on the streets of Itaewon by the animal compassion group. He was going to be euthanized the following day if nobody took him. He is now being fostered by one kind lady and her cat Charlie.

If you want to adopt Mochi, please fill out the pet adoption application form and e-mail it to us. Thank you.

Do you have room in your home for this boy, even if it's only until he can find his forever home? He is healthy, been neutered, all he needs is a little space in your home, some food and a little love. He's not a big boy, not quite a lap dog but you can scoop him up in your arms for cuddles.
Please don't let him go back to the shelter... he is so gentle, smart and has such beautiful eyes. He has spent all his life at the shelter, has never known human love, never had a place of his own.
Could you, or anybody you know, take him in? Please contact me ASAP!

Is Asan overloaded? I know it isn't the very best option, but it's far far better than a kill shelter...

Still hoping for the better solution, but right now it looks like there might be a couple of foster homes but not till after the Solleol holiday weekend coming up.

What's happening? I've heard people are interested in fostering him after the New Year. If these people could pick him up on Tuesday night, I would be willing to take him Sat-Tues., but because of my work schedule the next 2 weeks, I can't foster him more than those 4 days. Any ideas???

So I just talked with Jin on the phone and she said that there's a potential foster parent who is doing a trial with Mochi to see if he and the cat get along. That's all I know right now. :o)
