Amazing rescue with such an important mission! We adopted Kaya and had so much support from the entire team who really equipped us for success. We have since fostered 3 dogs with KK9R, and they have helped us every step of the way from providing all the resources we needed to how to best introduce fosters to Kaya. It has been such a joy to support this organization!

With so many rescue orgs in NYC, it can be hard to find the best fit. As a volunteer, former foster parent, and recent adopter @ Korean K9 Rescue, I can say that the team is incredible, the process is very clear and hands-on, and I could not be happier with my experience and my rescue pup. They have extensive resources for prospective and new adopters including orientation, manuals, vet recommendations, trainers, etc. An important piece for me is KK9R's post-adoption check-in process and the wonderful community they have built for "alumni" adopters. Cannot recommend them enough!

I’ve fostered 3 dogs with KoreanK9 over the last few months and this is one of the best run rescues you can find. Everyone on their team truly does everything they can for their dogs, as well as their fosters and other volunteers. Each dog I’ve fostered has been so well behaved and truly a joy to watch grow into their new environment. It is clear their team in Korea does a lot to help the dogs start to adjust before they come to their new country. I highly recommend getting involved with the organization in any way you can - adopt, foster, volunteer!

Perfection in an organization! As an adopter, volunteer, and foster of KoreanK9, I am excited to share my glowing reviews of a five star rescue organization!! I have been volunteering with KoreanK9 Rescue since January of 2023. The volunteer experience is extremely rewarding, the team is absolutely amazing and super kind, and the other volunteers share a passion for saving these sweet dogs. I applied to foster with KoreanK9 Rescue and the process was super seamless, I started Fostering Thunder (Photos attached), and knew I had to adopt him! The organization was very supportive and walked me through everything, got on the phone with me whenever I had questions, and now that I have adopted Thunder I still chat with Gina and team weekly! I don't think you can find a better organization they are truly one of a kind! They saved my sweet Thunder and I am forever grateful, not to mention KoreanK9 Rescue is the best community. Thank you <3 !!!!!

Gina, Vicky and the overall team and the amazing volunteers and fosters are some of the most caring and supportive people I've had the pleasure of meeting. The main focus and goal truly is to get dogs into good homes so they can live out a happy and healthy life. KK9R spares no time, money or effort in doing this. their responsiveness is top notch, their care and focus is always at 100% and the sacrifice is truly inspiring.

There are truly not enough words in this world to describe how amazing Korean K9 Rescue is. Fostering: |After losing my beloved family dog prior to the pandemic I was unsure if I was ready for a new pup but tested the waters with KK9 Fostering and it was the BEST decision I could have ever made. They support you along the way in every single step and provide EVERYTHING. All you need to provide is your loving home,love to the new pups coming in, and drop them off at adoption events. I fostered two beautiful dogs Rose and Kami who just made me sooo happy. If I ever had questions they were always available to help out and I never felt alone. If you are considering fostering look no further and do not hesitate! Adopting: The most unexpected thing happened to me while dropping off my foster at an adoption event. I fell in love and met my new fur baby !! The adoption process again was so organized and they set me up for success with supplies and recommended trainer. You will get everything you need from medical records, learnings from previous fosters, and not to mention a community !! They will follow up with you and again you are never alone! You can always reach out to learn more or ask questions. Korean K-9 changed my life for the better and if you are ready for this to be you look no further!!
