My personality

My story

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

FOR ADOPTION IN ONTARIO - BRONX: Cute, Complicated, and Completely Worth It

This tiny 10 pound 5 year old pup with the big personality found his way back into our care earlier this year. Since then, he has been through quite the journey, one that included over 3 months in a professional board & train program (at the not-so-tiny cost of $12,652.62 ). During that time, he also had an extensive veterinary work-up to rule out medical causes for his behavior.

The verdict? Bronx is healthy, strong, and as it turns out, very clear about his likes and dislikes.

Now back in foster care, Bronx is doing well, but it is clear he will always be a dog who requires observation and understanding. When Bronx doesn’t like something, he will tell you—no guessing games here. He is complex, yet easy. Needy, yet independent. Sweet and affectionate, yet occasionally a little salty. In short: he is a whole little man in one small package.

Bronx thrives when people understand that dogs, just like humans, can have quirks, moods, and boundaries. He will cuddle like it is his job, then promptly ignore you like yesterday’s news. He is THAT guy. He knows he is not everyone’s cup of tea, but he would like to declare that he can be a bit of a jerk… but most of us have dated worse. And he is way cuter. 🐾

Bronx deserves love, patience, and a family who will celebrate him exactly as he is. We know those people are out there. Until then, he is working hard in foster care, and we couldn’t be prouder of how far he has come.
