A gentle soul learning how beautiful life can be

Solei is a calm and gentle girl who has slowly blossomed after being rescued from a shelter euthanasia list in Korea. Once withdrawn and hopeless, she is now safe, surrounded by love, and learning to trust the world again.

Though shy at first, Solei warms up in her own time and becomes incredibly soft and affectionate once she feels secure. She is the type of dog who quietly stays close to her people and finds comfort in gentle companionship.

Rescue Story

Like many Jindos in Korea, Solei was bred in a rural area for meat and eventually sent to a shelter with her puppies, where she quietly waited as her time ran out.

After losing her puppies, she seemed to lose hope. When rescuers first saw her, she sat silently with hopeless eyes, avoiding people and the world around her.

But those eyes touched the heart of one kind woman.

After many sleepless nights thinking about Solei, she made the decision to save her before it was too late.

Since then, Solei has changed beautifully. She now enjoys walks with volunteers, seeks affection from people she trusts,

and greets familiar faces with a much brighter expression.

Ideal Home

Solei would thrive in a patient and loving home that will continue helping her build confidence at her own pace.

She would do well with another gentle dog companion but could also be happy as the only dog in a calm household.

Most of all, Solei is looking for a family who will cherish her soft heart and give her the safe, forever home she has always deserved
