My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

*BREED EXPERIENCE REQUIRED**

Name: Hans
Breed: Rottweiler
Weight: approx. 100lbs
Gender: Male
Spayed/Neutered: Yes Neutered
Age: 5 years old
Medical (shots etc): UTD
Good with dogs: No
Good with cats: No
Good with kids: No
Good with strangers: No
Guarding Issues: yes, has resource guarding with toys, bones, food and beds. Can be managed no problem.
House Trained: Yes
Crate Trained: Yes
Destructive: No
Leash skills: Great!
Okay with manipulations: Yes
Known commands: Sit, stay, no, drop it, down, paw
Behaviour Issues: Hans is a great dog once he knows and trust you. He has stranger danger. Therefore, he needs to meet someone several times before he is not reactive to them.
Other Observations: Once Hans trust you, he's a big goofy guy. Who loves to play, chase and snow is his favorite thing to role in and eat. Hans cannot go to a hectic household or with many people in the home. He would be best suited for an older couple who's very experienced with the breed and his behavior issues. Not for a novice owner.
Hans will bond with his people and will be protective. He is great on a leash, loves being outside. He doesn't really bother with dogs outside his kennel, but is reactive to dogs in his kennel.
His resource guarding is quite bad and he cannot have toys, bones or beds and blankets. We do give him raw bones at dinner time in his crate so by morning it's all gone and his aggression isn't there. Food aggression is bad as well. He gets fed in his crate, will sit and give paw before we feed him. Once the bowl is down, if anyone is near him, he will growl. Best to leave him eat in his crate.
Being Rottweiler means he is strong, and smart. I talk to him often and he enjoys conversations while on walks on getting some cuddle time. Hans will be an amazing dog with the right people. He has tons if love to give and loves his people. For a dog who is 3, he still has tons of play energy to interact with his people.

If you're looking for a dog who will be loyal and protective, but also have a soft side, Hans is your man!

More about this rescue

Strong and powerful breeds are some of the most misunderstood, feared and mistreated breeds in North America. As well as dominant and so called aggressive breeds. Thousands in our very own home of Ontario alone are euthanized, seized, dumped and surrendered. And at FABR we want to change that starting today, with you!

We strive to rescue power breed types, bully types, large and extra large dogs, the ones shelters and some rescues would dare take in. We rehabilitate,train, care for them and find them their forever homes. And we do travel out of province to bring them to safe provinces that do not hold a BSL ban, when needed. Every dog deserves a chance at life. A chance to be loved and have a family. Here at FABR we make that happen.

With fosters, volunteers and help from the community, we help and specialize in providing dogs with a safe place to be. A place for them to be the best they can be without judgment.

Once we take in a dog, our team starts assessments and planning what the dog needs are base on the dogs behaviors, personality and history (if we are giving any info of course). From there our team works with each dog individually to help them become ready to find their forever homes. We work hard to ensure our dogs have all the fundamentals needed in life and behavior wise to be successful in their new homes. With daily exercise, training, socialization and lots of play time.
Through all of our endeavors we hope to display the conviction behind our beliefs.
