Rescue Me: Bessie, From South Korea, Wants To Join Your Family

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA — Bessie, a dog available for adoption through Loudoun County Animal Services, is a seasoned world traveler. She was originally rescued from a residence in South Korea, according to the animal shelter.

Bessie is currently in foster care, but she is ready to join a forever family of her own that will allow her to live her best life.

Bessie has already been spayed, and she has a gorgeous tan and white coat. According to the animal shelter's PetHarbor page, she has been with the animal shelter since December 2020.

"Bessie has learned so much since her initial days in a small cage," the animal shelter wrote online. "While her definition of being a dog might still look a bit different from the norm, Bessie is thriving and teaching us every day to love and accept her, just as she is."

Bessie is a bit of an outdoor dog, and the animal shelter noted that she enjoys spending time in a spacious yard with a breeze and her back and the sun shining down. "Her favorite outdoor activity is sprinting around the yard, bouncing and wiggling and encouraging her dog friends to join in.," the animal shelter wrote.

Bessie also enjoys her toys. She manages to entertain herself with them, tossing them back and forth, checking their squeakiness, and ensuring they're Bessie-approved.

Although she's a dog, Bessie is quite the social butterfly. "Bessie finds comfort in her other dog friends," the animal shelter said. "When she isn't sure, she looks to them for guidance and support."

Her foster family also noted that Bessie found a fast friendship with a chicken.

Anyone interested in meeting Bessie can fill out a survey to schedule a conversation with a member of Loudoun County Animal Services and have a meet and greet with this incredible pup.
