Korean K9 Rescue is creating a better future for homeless and mistreated dogs with the help of kind, compassionate adopters! We are a non-profit, No-Kill 501(c)(3) dog rescue organization based in Queens, New York that saves dogs from the meat trade, puppy mills, and high-kill shelters in South Korea. We transport at-risk dogs to the New York City, where we place them in loving forever homes.

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!

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!

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!

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!!

I've only know about this organization for a year, but in that time they have transformed my life. My husband and I started by adopting a puppy in February. We repeatedly say it's the best decision we've ever made. KK9R does everything they can to set you up for success and support you through the process. They gave us a thorough orientation, made sure we had all the supplies we needed to bring our girl home and recommended an excellent vet and trainer. Then, we became part of their community by attending their fundraiser parties, which are a blast. They're so fun, but the swag bags alone are worth the price of entrance. Next, we fostered 3 wonderful dogs and volunteered at adoption events. We had wonderful foster experiences because KK9R is so organized and professional. The dogs do a lot of training and socialization in Korea, so when they arrive for foster and adoption they already know basic commands, leash walking and have great manners. It's been exciting be able to help dogs and an organization I believe in so much. We fostered failed our last time around, so here we are 1 year later with dogs, our lives completely changed and happier than we've ever been.

I have volunteered with KK9 for several months now and am incredibly impressed by the dedication and deliberation of their staff. They find the best possible homes for each of the dogs in their care and make sure that all of the adopters are equipped to deal with the types of dogs they are adopting. The dogs get premium care, with trainers, meals and supplements, and every penny goes back to helping these dogs find their new homes. This is the service I wish I had when adopting my own dog and I’m so happy to help an organization I know is doing right by the animals and people.
