Meet Kali!
Quick Facts:
2 Years old
Female

FMD Mix
✔️Good with people
✔️Good with other dogs
✔️Housebroken
✔️Vaccinated and neutered
✔️Microchipped
✔️Friendly with strangers & children
✔️Good on leash
⚠️Not cat tested
Kali lived her entire life on a chain outside. Although she had an owner, she was not treated as a loved pet but merely a piece of property. Because of this, she was left defenseless when a stray dog attacked her and was left with severe injuries to her front legs. Her owner did not have the money to take her to the vet and her injuries became infected. She’d also had a litter of puppies not too long before the attack and she continued to nurse despite her pain. By the time our volunteer found her and was able to convince the owner to allow her to take her to get treated, the wound was so horribly infected her two front legs needed to be amputated. Her owner didn’t want her back since she was no longer able to do the job he kept her for :(.
Despite the traumas, her harsh life has not hindered her love for humans and other dogs. She loves her fosters and receiving affection from all those who meet her (who can resist that sweet smile?). She loves playing with other dogs (and she can!) and being outdoors. Kali’s been fitted for a wheelchair and she’s been much happier now that she can go on walks again! Her puppies have all found new homes and now it’s her turn.
We are open to a long-term foster or adopter who can accommodate her special needs in SF/Bay Area or NY. She is able to get around at home without her wheelchair but will need help going up and down stairs. Because of her mobility issues, she will remain in Taiwan until we can confirm a foster or adopter in order to keep her comfortable.
If you think you’re the right fit, please submit an adoption application via the link in our bio!

Meet Varu! (Available for adoption in SF/Bay Area)
Quick Facts:
2.5 Years old
Female
33 lbs
FMD Mix
✔️Good with people
✔️Good with other dogs
✔️Good with cats
✔️Housebroken
✔️Vaccinated and neutered
✔️Microchipped
✔️Friendly with strangers & children
✔️Good on leash
Varu was abandoned in the mountain because she had skin issue with bad smell. A kind stranger sent Varu to a non-kill shelter where there were numerous dogs due to the dangerous location and lived for almost 2 years. Our foster noticed Varu when he went to the shelter to pick up Maeve and Oakie. Varu immediately wanted to play with the foster and was very friendly. The foster was equally enamored and wanted to give this sweet playful girl a chance at a new life. He was not able to take her the same day but returned for her once he had the space.
Varu is a loving animal, friendly to both human and dogs, cats, and other small critters. She is a sweet-natured and intelligent dog, and happy go lucky girl. She adapted in new foster immediately and got used to the new environment quickly. Anyone can pet her, even strangers and kids. She is super friendly around people meeting outside in a public setting as well as indoors. She loves to be cuddled!
The perfect adopter for Varu would be one who will continue her training and help her become a great canine citizen!

Reintroducing Bingsu! **PLEASE READ HIS BIO THOROUGHLY- his behavioral issues will require an experienced handler!**
.
Quick facts;
Male
Jindo
30 lbs
1 y/o
📍SF Bay Area
✔️Housebroken
✔️Vaccinated
✔️Microchipped
✔️Neutered
⚠️Not Good with Cats & Small Animals
⚠️Not Good with Dogs
⚠️Not Kid Tested
.
Bingsu was originally purchased from a breeder in TX. Due to a career change his owner could no longer give him the attention he needed and surrendered him to HARA.
.
Bingsu has basic obedience down (waiting at thresholds, sit, down, crate, heel) but is under-socialization and fearful/anxious in new places. His obedience can help keep him on walks and outings, but he will need continued confidence building and training.
.
Bingsu has shown dog reactivity and aggression on walks and in foster care, but has improved with exposure and interrupting fixation on dogs outside. He has not been able to nicely interact with other dogs, and is currently on a crate-and-rotate schedule with other dogs in his foster home. He is neutral when they are around his crate. Bingsu has a very strong prey drive and cannot be in a home with small animals, including cats.
.
Bingsu has shown resource guarding of his crate and food, which needs to be managed and trained in any new home. When allowed to free-roam indoors without structure, he can develop guarding behavior with spaces that he thinks are “his”so we highly recommend having him on a crate schedule between walks/outings until he is settled and under control.
.
Bingsu will need a very savvy home- but we know there’s someone out there for him! He is undergoing training for his resource guarding, obedience, reactivity, and fearfulness while in foster care, and we expect his adopter to commit to professional training.
.
Otherwise, Bingsu is an extremely playful dog. He bonds strongly with his handler and is good with vets and strangers. He is totally housebroken and crate trained.
.
If you are ready to give Bingsu a second chance at life and commit to training, please apply at harasf.org/application !

~4 years old
Female
48 lbs

✔️Good with people and kids

Adora was a stray puppy when our volunteer found her with her sister in the mountain side of Taiwan. Adora was very friendly towards other dogs even though they were constantly getting bullied by other stray dogs. Adora is as good as it gets! She's sweet, gentle, friendly with strangers, kids, and other dogs. Her sister found a loving home in Canada but Adora's freedom flight got delayed due to a surgery for femoral head ostectomy and luxating patella. It took two year for her to fully recover and complete PT - but she's ready for her forever home now! She doesn’t need additional PT and has been cleared by the vet. Her favorite pastime is to cuddle at home and go for walks!

⭐️ ADOPTED! ⭐️
Meet Onyx! Onyx is adoptable in the SF Bay Area!
.
Quick facts;
Female
40 lbs
3.5 Years Old
✔️Housebroken
✔️Vaccinated
✔️Microchipped
✔️Dog Friendly
✔️Cat Friendly
✔️OK with Kids 10+
⚠️Can be Shy & Noise Sensitive
⚠️Crate training
.
Onyx was a stray puppy dropped off at a public shelter at just 3 months old, and she stayed at that shelter with no adoption interested for a whopping three years! @haro_tw decided to bail her out of the shelter and get her into foster care, where she would have a better chance of acclimating to home life and being adopted.
.
Having had no exposure to the outside world for so long, Onyx was very shy and noise sensitive when moving to a more urban area. She has done very well decompressing with her foster family, who walk her daily and desensitize her to new environments and sounds, but she can still get spooked by loud unexpected noises. Onyx can be shy and submissive meeting new dogs, but is curious and will approach and sniff them.
.
Onyx can be shy meeting new people but is curious to sniff and meet new people and accepts pets and handling without any issues. She has warmed up to her foster family very well and is playful (loves toys) and eager to please and do commands for treats. She has no resource guarding and is good on car rides. She is still in the process of learning how to walk nicely on leash.
.
The perfect family for Onyx would be one that can continue building her confidence and training her basic obedience.
.
