My story

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

Dak / Neutered Male / 2 Years / 76lbs /Coonhound x Bulldog / Dogs: Yes / Cats: No / Kids: 16+ / Location: Port Colborne

Reintroducing… DAK!
Formerly known as Yamper, this handsome boy was adopted as a puppy but became “too much” for a busy family with young kids. Once back in our care, it was clear he hadn’t been given the consistency and structure he truly needed. He arrived in rough shape, but we got him healthy, confident, and ready for a fresh start.

Dak spent time in foster and then moved to a wonderful boarding program where he’s been brushing up on his manners and learning all the “good boy rules.” And he’s been THRIVING.

He plays with lots of different dogs every day
He’s super well socialized
He’d LOVE a playful canine buddy at home

Dak is food motivated, affectionate, loves a good sniffari, and is always excited for new adventures. He’s incredibly sweet and sensitive, he wants to please, but he can get overstimulated without clear guidance. Dak needs a confident, committed human who will give him structure, enrichment, and leadership. In return? The biggest cuddles, a loyal companion, and a dog who will blossom with the right person.

Here he’s become a well adjusted, happy boy. He can play or quietly entertain himself with a stick, or just take in the world around him. He’s ready for someone who will take the time to truly know him.

We are currently looking for a foster, a foster-to-adopt home, or an adoptive home for Dak. He deserves his person, someone who will help him continue to grow and thrive.

Could that be you?
