✨✨ Youngsil ✨✨

Rescue Story

Youngsil's story is one of remarkable resilience and hope. Born in a bustling shelter with over 1,600 dogs, Youngsil waited patiently for four long years before his turn to be rescued finally arrived. Now this brave soul is ready to embark on a new journey, eager to learn the joys of a normal doggy life, and discover the love of a forever home.

About Him

Youngsil is an amazing boy and so very eager to find his forever home and family. And he certainly deserves to find one because he’s brave, smart, sweet, and happy. What’s really impressive about him is how hard he tries to face and overcome his fears (which are becoming less and less every day).

One time, his foster family was telling him to sit so they could wipe his muddy paws. He knows “sit” perfectly well, but he also knows when his paws are going to be wiped, so he was really afraid and hesitant to sit. Eventually, he did, but not before he pooped due to stress and fear. He used to do that often, but he’s made remarkable progress over the months with his foster family, and now it’s very rare—it’s an exception, not the norm. But you can’t blame or fault him because you can see in his face and eyes that he’s trying to obey, but he had a traumatic past, and he’s so embarrassed for his mistake.

It’s easy to forget those embarrassing moments because he’s normally very happy and energetic. And he LOVES to eat! That makes him really easy to train: he’ll pay attention and do anything for food. (But keep your socks off the ground: he’ll eat those.)

When you scratch his neck, he gets a look on his face like “Oh! This is amazing!” He runs zoomies around the yard two or three times a day. He’s good with other dogs. He’s gentle and sweet. He listens and learns. He greets you when you come home. There’s just so much goodness in him.

GIven how hard Youngsil tries to overcome his fears, and his innate joy, there’s no doubt that with a little more time and training he’ll stop being a “rescue dog” and become a “normal dog”—beyond normal: he’s going to be a cherished member of his forever family. He’s already an amazing boy, and there’s no doubt he’ll become even more amazing and loving.
