 * 영어번역 해주시는 봉사자분의 합류로 영문버전 입양홍보글을 올릴 수 있게 되었어요!
함안보호소 아이들은 시골개들이 많다보니 소형견 보다는 중대형견이 많아요. 그래서 국내입양률을 높이기가 쉽지 않은게 현실이었어요ㅠㅠ 그래서 반려견 입양을 고려하고 있는 국내 거주 외국인분들에게도 우리 함안보호소 아이들의 사랑스러운 모습들을 홍보하려고 해요😍 그리고 해외입양을 위해 해외에 아이들 프로필 이미지나 정보를 보낼 때도 도움이 될 거라 기대합니다!^^

A tiny white dog entered our shelter, where there are mostly Jindo mix dogs over 15 kg. The shelter manager tried really hard to catch her but she was running circles around her. Still, she barely managed to catch Mongsheel, and she was able to send her to her first fostering home. Mongsheel has been in 2 foster homes so far, and has started building trust with people just little by little.

Mongsheel used to be super scared of people, especially of men, now she has come to enjoy being loved and comes to people first. She also has good outside manners.

Mongsheel can be a little scaredy cat and afraid of change, but she has such a beautiful smile, and we hope to find someone who is willing to be patient with her and love her for good.

🌸Information regarding Dali from her foster parents(written by her foster father)🌸

1. Reaction regarding unfamiliar environments and meeting strangers:
-Based on the time we spent with her, it took about 7 days for Mongsheel to get used to her foster mother, but a month for the father.

2. When her foster parents first met Mongsheel:
-When we first took her from her pre-fostering home, Mongsheel was so scared that she went to the bathroom in the kennel. We tried to give her a shower but, she growled to both me and my wife when our hands got too close to her. She rejected affection and barked at us a lot, so we had to wear oven gloves for our safety and we barely managed to give her a shower. 
After the shower, her hair was still wet but she just laid down on her old sleeping pad and slept. We felt relived. 
Mongsheel is very timid but also very curious about things. She would just exploring whole house and watching outside through a window for a long time. 
She stays behind me in the house and watches me while I’m working, then runs to her favorite spot when I turn back. It has been more than 2 months but she still does this.

3. Sociability with People:
-Mongsheel doesn’t have any sociability with people. It has been 2 weeks since we started walking her outside, but she hid and tried to stay away from people who she sees every day. She is still scared every time they pass by her, and she winds up turning back and staring at them as they walk away from her until she can’t see them anymore.
One day there was a lady we ran into on our walk, she adored Mongsheel and clapped her hands. To be frank, Mongsheel freaked the hell out. 

4. Reaction to Children:
-Monsheel doesn’t care about size. She’s just generally scared of people. 
There was a one time she ran into a family on the street with my wife, whose kid approached her. She desperately tried to escape. My wife sat down to make her calm down, and Mongsheel sat under my wife’s legs and stared up with her head down.

5. Fear of people based on gender:
-Mongsheel is scared of all strangers equally. Since we have been fostering her and spending time with her every day, she’s now a little more comfortable with women, but still scared of men. Due to my health issues, I’ve been home all day for almost the last 2 months and spent time with Mongsheel around the clock. 
Still, Mongsheel gets close to my wife and acts cutesy around her for snacks, but when it’s me she just sits down far away and waits for me to throw the snack to her. I would say then that she doesn’t act cutesy at all around men. 
Even now she growls a little when I approach or pet her, but she does not bite. She will, however, relax some if I keep petting her.

6. Reaction to Other Dogs:
-We haven’t had any dogs in our house beside Mongsheel. When she runs into other dogs while walking outside, she doesn’t seem interested at all even when they approach her. She only stares in the direction of home. She will hide behind anytime any dog approaches her. 

7. Reaction to Cats:
-We see street cats on our way to go to walk Mongsheel. She just lifts her one paw and stares them for a bit and then goes on her walk again. 

8. Barking Habits:
- Mongsheel barely barks. She only barked for the first 3 days when we tried to give her a shower and put the leash on her body. Since then, she only growls a little bit and recently, she’s still scared but lets us put a leash on her. 

9. Aggression or Biting Issues:
-Mongsheel doesn’t bite aggressively or purposefully. 
-She bites defensively when she’s scared but it can get better once she spends long enough time and gets used to you. 

10. Eating Habits/Favorite Food:
-When we give her food, she doesn’t eat right away. She only eats around 1-2AM when everybody falls asleep and she finally gets to feel safe herself.
-Mongsheel prefers chicken more than beef and she eats it right away, regardless if it’s her regular eating time or not. She also loves duck meat.

11.Coprophagis (eating feces)
-None

12. Sleeping Preferences:
-It depends where the men are. She sleeps wherever the foster father isn’t. She doesn’t really sleep inside her kennel. When it’s too hot, she moves from her sleeping pad to the ground and sleeps there.

13. Crate Training:
- None. It’s really difficult to train her with the crate because she generally doesn’t listen to us. She would come into the crate when we tried, but she gets scared and runs out of it if it moves even a little bit. And if she’s inside when we close the door and lift the crate, she can pee or poo inside because she’s so scared.

14. Potty-Training:
-She has perfectly used a pee pad indoors before we started walking her outside. For the first couple days we walked her outside, she would pee and poo right away at the entrance because she was too scared. However now she poos around the grass while we walk. 

15. Marking:
-Mongsheel doesn’t mark indoors. She sometimes pees a little bit outside.

16. Playing with Toys:
-She’s not interested in toys, though she does like chewing on wood.

17. Separation Anxiety:
-She doesn’t have separation anxiety. She’s even more comfortable alone.
-Mongsheel enjoys watching the outside environment through the window when she’s home alone, but she spends most of her time asleep. Sometimes when we come back home, Mongsheel looks at us in a way that feels like she’s saying, “why are you back already?”

18. Walking Outside:
-with us at the same speed because we have been trying to train her with it. 
She loves running, so we always run the last 200 meters or so back home with her. She somehow looks more excited after running with us. 
-If we ever let her choose where to go, she will always come straight home. 
-She tried to bite us the first time we tried to put the harness on her. After that, she would growl at us. Now she won’t do either of them but she tries to stay away when she sees her leash and harness. 
Mongsheel always goes to her pee pad to pee after she wears her leash.

19. Does she recognize her name? Does she come to you when you call her outside?
- She doesn’t recognize her name. And she doesn’t even look back at me when I call her outside. Mongsheel doesn’t come to us if snacks are not involved (Which could be because it’s her foster father).

20. Understood Commands:
-Shake hands / High five / “V” / “Nose” (still training)

21. Health Issues/Required Treatments:
-None. She takes Anthelminthic and Heartworm medicines every month, just like other dogs.

22. Car-Training:
-We don’t think she has any issues with being in the car based on our experience when we first brought her home from her first foster home. 

23. Things of note for interested Families:
-Mongsheel is a super-duper scaredy cat.
-She sheds a lot.

24. Ideal Family:
-She may be better placed with a women over men. She’s perfectly fine with being home alone.
-If you’re a married couple, one of you staying home with Mongsheel could be a nice way for her to get used to you faster.
-I wouldn’t recommend a family with kids for Mongsheel. She could bite them if they approach her without knowing better.
