Today's dog has a charming Jindo dog face with Husky colors
Guardian: Her name is Glenne and she's a "Jindosky", a mix of Jindo dog and Husky
Glenne's a bubby dog with a charming smile and bubbly personality
But, the guardian says all of her bubbliness is gone the moment she steps in the house...
Glenne froze right when the guardian opened the front door
She rushes to the restroom as if she's running away from something!
She looks discouraged after coming back home
Guardian: I think she's afraid of the house She's terrified every time she's home
Glenne looks nothing like the dog she was a moment ago, outside
Guardian: Come out
Eventually, the guardian goes to the living room, carrying Glenne in her arms
But, soon after...
the fella dashes to the dressing room in a haste
Guardian: She runs like that at home. Never has she walked comfortably like a normal dog
The guardian says she goes to the dressing room and won't move a muscle whenever she's home
But, maybe she'll come out if yummy food is served!
Guardian: Come here, let's eat, come here
Half her body's out, but Glenne's hesitant to take a step
Eventually, the guardian carries her to the food bowl again
As if she's been starving, she wolfs down the food, burping
But, as soon as she finished the bowl, she dashes into the dressing room, again
What about if she's lured with her favorite snack?
Glenne only smacks her lips with the snacks right in front of her...
The guardian tries to use the harness she uses for strolls, but it won't make Glenne move a muscle
Eventually, she ran away to the front door...
Maybe the floor's too slippery??
We placed mats in the hallway where Glenne has a hard time walking
Will it work..?
But, even with the mat and snacks, Glenne's still frozen
Again, she dashed into the dressing room, running uncomfortably
Eventually... Glenne and the guardian came back outside
Glenne doesn't look discouraged at all, but rather looks bubbly, playing with her friends!
And she walks and runs just fine!
Guardian: I think she really acts differently at home
I really wanna know why she's like that...
Her abnormal behavior disappears like magic whenever she's out
But, Glenne freezes whenever she's home, where she should feel the most comfortable...
Even her facial expressions differ so much when compared to when she's outside
Guardian: We started with walking with a leash on. At first, she didn’t know how to climb the stairs…or anything.
Glenne was born in foster care and had never lived with people. And the family adopted her as a family
With the guardian couple's endeavors, Glenne began to adapt slowly, but fear of the house never got better
What's terrifying her so much?
The guardian's just sad watching Glenne unable to even sleep comfortably
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: Hello
Lee Chan-Jong made a visit to help with Glenne!
He begins to observe Glenne's behaviors attentively!
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: Alright, let's go
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: Are you the first adopter who adopted her when she was 9 months old?
Guardian: I’m the second adopter
Before then? / She was too timid, so an hour later the first adoption
she was sent back to foster care.. Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: After an hour? / Yes
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: So, for Glenne, what this place is, it’s a capture cage. A capture cage
Glenne must have recognized the first house she was adopted to as a capture cage
When she came back to the shelter after an hour and felt freedom,
a house became a place Glenne needed to escape from
Breaking up her misunderstandings begins!
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: Hold her and close the door behind you
The first step to overcoming fear is getting out of the dressing room!
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: Keep massaging her
After placing Glenne on the dog mattress, massage her and plant good memories
Glenne loosens up and lies down comfortably!
She's starting to realize this house isn't a dangerous place, but a place where she's loved
Next, it's walking training!
Lee Chan-Jong, Expert: You have to walk a lot
After placing non-slip mats, lure her with snacks
Next, have her walk to further places!
Using the dog mattress she felt comfortable with earlier, induce her to walk!
As if she's still fearful, she hesitates
But, she musters up the courage!
And she arrives safely!
The training repeats, increasing the distance
Now she comes to the dog mattress more comfortably!
Give her ample amount of time to get used to walking!
Guardian: Come here~ Oh my, so amazing!
With the harness and the dog mattress, Glenne can walk quite a distance!
This time, she tries to walk down the hallway without being led!
She seemed hesitant for a second, but she encourages herself to follow after her guardian!
Guardian: Oh my, good job
Producer: She walked on her own! Guardian: Exactly, I can't believe what I just saw...
Glenne's body and mind were frozen with painful memories.
But, her guardian never gave up on Glenne
We hope a house will mean a place she can rest the most comfortably from now on!
