Mr. Marbles

This adorable snowball is Mr. Marbles. I’ve wanted a dog for a while, and in 2020 I felt a new loneliness. With the lockdown it all seemed right so I began my search. It was hard! I guess I was kinda picky, wanting a Pomeranian that was young but not a puppy, and a RESCUE. I got ignored by a lot of places for being young and living in an apartment, but I kept my search. When I found Jindo Love it was perfect- almost too perfect. Everyone thought I was crazy adopting a dog from KOREA! But the ladies at JLR were all so responsive helpful and they listened to me and my story. I had a gut feeling that this was it. They actually ended up adopting the dog I wanted out to someone else (who is lovely btw), and said “actually we have another for you”. I was ecstatic that they still considered me. Marbles was a shy little guy with a skin condition that they were still treating so he was never listed for adoption, but I was patient and waited for him. I flew from FL to NY to pick him up and it was love at first sight. Since then marbles and I have been attached at the hip. He is the perfect dog for me. I was honestly worried about adopting a dog I had never met- it was obviously possible we wouldn’t vibe (I also have a cat). But I think the people at JLR fundamentally understood who I am and what I wanted/needed because Marbles is the perfect match for me. I’m forever grateful to JLR for the amazing work they do, and I’m so happy to be a part of the Jindo Love Family. ❤️
