Backstory:
Remi was surrendered to a kill shelter in Kentucky with his mom who was pregnant with another litter of puppies. She was pulled by another rescue and delivered 11 puppies who all found homes, while Remi stayed at the shelter waiting to find his forever home. He would do best with someone who has some shepherd experience and is willing to teach this sweetheart some basic obedience and manners, as he is so smart and eager to please! He just wants to be your best friend.
Foster comments:
Remi is the most gorgeous brindle shepherd we have ever seen! He is such a loving & playful boy who's eager to learn. He knows 'sit' and 'come', and has being doing very well with 'wait' commands on his walks. He is working on his leash reactivity and is very responsive to training, but will require a strong handler as he is a big boy. He has never shown any food aggression with treats or food. Remi is a huge cuddle bug that just loves to be loved on. His favourite thing to do is play fetch and he loves all toys!

The majority of our dogs are adopted before traveling to Canada. We are a foster based rescue, so a meet & grett can be arranged with some dogs that are already here.

More about this rescue
We are so much more than a dog rescue! We are a community of incredible volunteers with one goal in mind: To help dogs in need find a loving, forever home. We are moms and dads, sisters and daughters, sons and brothers from all walks of life. We have come together with one goal in mind: To help dogs that need it most. Those on death row, those lost, those hungry those broken hearted. We will work and work and work until we find a family for each one of them. We will not stop until each one of our dogs has the one thing they wish for: the safety of a home and the love of a family. We are foster based. This means we do not have a facility, dogs are pulled from shelters and put in to comfortable homes until they are adopted. Each foster volunteer allows us to save one more dog and help him/her find a loving forever home. Since 2015, NDR has saved over 6200 dogs. These dogs are ALIVE today because of we cared and we worked and we cried and we pleaded and we drove and we checked and we advocated and we fought and we begged and, in the end, we made this possible without funding or paid staff. With no shelter or corporate sponsors. With nothing but the will of our amazing volunteers working together to help save the lives of the dogs we can help. We keep our heads down, we focus on what we need to do to help our dogs and we go to work. We have made a difference in the lives of those dogs that are fortunate enough to be ours.
