Critter Details

Meet Pyeongon! Breed: Chihuahua mixAge: 6 MonthsGender: Female    Weight: 7 lb   Height: 30CmHighlight(s): Good with other dogs, affectionate, playfulHello, I’m Pyeongon, a 6-month-old puppy with a unique name that means “tranquil” in Korean. My journey began when my mama was saved from the euthanasia list. I was born in a safe and loving foster home with my five sisters. Mama took such good care of us, making sure we all had plenty of milk and love.At 3 months old, I moved to another foster home where my foster mom introduced me to the big world. I’ve explored urban areas, made lots of friends (both two-legged and four-legged), and learned so much about life!What I’m Like:I’m a sweet and affectionate pup who adores people and other dogs. Don’t let my serious face fool you—I’m a happy little girl who loves cuddles! I’ll gladly snuggle in your lap or even nap on your chest. If you’re looking for a perfect lap dog, I’m your girl!I enjoy playing with other dogs, regardless of size, but I do prefer gentle playmates. Rough and tumble games can be a bit overwhelming for me. I haven’t met a cat yet, so I’m not sure how I’d feel about feline friends.My Favorite Things:• Walks: I love going on walks and might get a bit excited—I’m fast and love to sniff all the smells!• Toys: Balls and rubber toys are the best!• Car & Stroller Rides: I’m calm and happy to tag along wherever you go.My Skills:• I know tricks like “sit,” “wait,” and “give paw.”• I’m crate-trained and rarely bark.• I don’t show any signs of separation anxiety or resource guarding.• I’ve never been aggressive, and I don’t try to escape.Training Progress:I’m 50% housetrained (half on pee pads and half outdoors) and working hard to improve. Right now, I sometimes have excitement urination, but my foster mom says most puppies outgrow that as they get older.What I’m Looking For:I’m looking for a loving forever home where I can continue to grow, play, and cuddle. Whether you’re an active family or someone who loves a cozy lap dog, I’d be a great fit.Are you ready to make me part of your family? Let’s meet soon—I’m sure we’ll be best friends in no time!With love,PyeongonEnergy Level: Moderate – enjoys outdoor activitiesI get along with:Dogs: YesCats: UnknownKids: YesFears: Unknow/Non observed.

Although a 1-on-1 trainer is often not needed, it is good to have someone in mind in case any problematic behaviours arise. Most bad behaviours can be modified if caught early enough, so make sure to nip undesirable behaviours in the bud before they become serious problems.Basic training should be taken seriously, but should not begin until your dog is well settled in – at least a couple of weeks. After you feel your new dog is relaxed and comfortable in their new home, check out training courses in your local area. Even basic beginner courses like those taught at a local pet store can have a huge benefit in helping your dog learn to socialize and get used to being in public situations, all with the added benefit of strengthening their bond with you.The age and breed of a dog is usually an educated guess, so we are not able to guarantee the accuracy of age or breed of our dogs.Information included in the profile is provided to us from the international rescuer or local fosters. LALDR does not have access to overseas dogs and cannot always verify the accuracy of their descriptions. Every dog is an individual and can act differently in different situations based on the person adopting them and the environment in which they live.Normally, we will not approve adoptions to homes with children under 12 years of age. However if a dog has been determined to be good with children we will approve applicants with children 8 years or older. More information can be found on our website.
