My story

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

Arriving February 7, will be fostered in the Niagara Region

Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website.

Mocha is a friendly girl who loves people and other dogs alike. Though she may be shy at first, she is quickly warm and affectionate with men and women, and has lived happily with children of all ages. With other dogs, she is playful and energetic, showing loose, happy body language, and would love a canine companions who enjoy matching her fun-loving spirit, though not required.

She is likely to be cat-friendly after calmly sharing space with cats - sniffing, offering a friendly lick, showing playful interest and moving on once satisfied. She settles quietly in her crate with a little encouragement and is making great progress with house training. While she still needs some practice on leash and is working on managing her excitement and jumping when greeting people, she has no history of resource guarding or separation anxiety. With a medium energy level and a big heart, she would do best in a loving, active home where she is fully included in family life and cherished as a true member of the pack.

Additional adoption info

R.E.B.E.L Dog Rescue is looking for committed adopters, ready to bring a rescue dog into their life. In order to ensure that we find the best homes for our dogs, adoption applicants must go through an adoption approval process. We receive a number of applications for each dog and only one will be chosen as the successful candidate. Candidates are selected based on the dog's needs. Not being selected for the dog that you applied for does not disqualify you from adopting from us in the future.

Go meet their pets

We do our very best to place our dogs into adoptive homes before they arrive into Canada. This ensures that they have a safe and loving place to go after their long journey up North. All dogs adopted through R.E.B.E.L Dog Rescue will receive a 15 day adoption probation period. This period starts the day the dog enters the care of the adopter. This means that the adoptive family has 15 days to determine that dog is a good fit for them. Although it may feel scary to not meet the dog before adopting, the 15 day period allows you to get to know the dog within your home. If you buy a dog off of Kijiji or at a local shelter you may be given a couple hours to meet the dog. We believe that our program's 15 day probation provides much more insight into how he or she will fit into your home, rather than. a brief meet and greet.
