Story
🐾❤️ DALE WANTS TO GO HOME! ❤️🐾 Three years ago, Dale was just a puppy when he found what everyone hoped would be his forever home. He grew up surrounded by love, had a family of his own, and knew exactly what it felt like to belong. Unfortunately, after three years, Dale has found himself back in rescue, and this handsome boy just doesn’t understand why he isn’t home anymore. 💔 Sometimes, even dogs who have lived together for years develop differences they simply cannot work through. Sadly, that was the case for Dale and his canine brother. While Dale is considered dog friendly, we truly believe he would be happiest being the one and only dog in his next home, where he can soak up all the love and attention without having to share his space with another dog. And let us tell you, Dale has SO much to offer! ❤️ This incredibly handsome 3½-year-old Boxer mix is extremely friendly, house trained, crate trained, and a wonderful listener! He’s already learned how to live in a home, understands the routines, and knows how to be part of a family. He’s not a puppy who needs to learn everything from scratch. He’s a boy who simply needs another chance. And can we talk about those EYES?! 😍😍😍 Dale has a beautiful condition called heterochromia, which simply means his eyes are two different colors! One gorgeous blue eye and one warm brown eye make this handsome boy even more unforgettable. And no, having two different colored eyes does NOT mean he’s blind in one eye! Heterochromia itself does not affect vision. You may also notice a few battle scars on his handsome face. Those are reminders of the disagreements he had with his brother, but they certainly don’t take away from just how gorgeous this boy is! What breaks our hearts the most is that Dale does NOT want to be living in a shelter. He spent nearly his entire life knowing the comforts of a home, and now he’s surrounded by the sights and sounds of rescue life. He doesn’t understand what happened or why everything familiar suddenly disappeared. Dale isn’t looking for anything extravagant. He just wants a family, a comfortable place to sleep, someone to love, and the security of knowing he’s home again. Three years in a home should not be the end of Dale’s story. We want it to be the beginning of his next chapter. ❤️ Please help us find this sweet, handsome boy the forever home he deserves. Even if you cannot adopt, sharing his story could be exactly what brings his new family to him! ❤️ Let’s get Dale OUT of the shelter and BACK into a HOME! 🏡🐾 P.S. A little something we’d like everyone to understand: Dale’s former family did not make this decision lightly, nor did they simply give up on him. They loved Dale very much and went above and beyond trying to restore the relationship between their two dogs. They sought help from professional trainers, behaviorists, and explored options to help the boys live together peacefully again. Unfortunately, despite everyone’s best efforts, the relationship could not be repaired safely. Sometimes, even with love, dedication, and professional guidance, two dogs simply cannot continue sharing a home. This was an incredibly difficult and heartbreaking decision for his family, and we ask that everyone show them the same kindness and compassion we hope to find for Dale. ❤️

Story
Meet Fred: 85 Pounds of LOVE  Fred is a 1-2 year old, 85-pound Boxer/Pitbull Mix (per his dna test!) He’s smart, affectionate, goofy, and eager to please, and he’ll do just about anything for a piece of cheese. He’s also still growing into his big frame and occasionally forgets he isn’t a lap dog.  What Fred knows   -Potty & crate trained -Sit, down, and stay -Roll over (on soft surfaces only; he has standards) -Leash manners are a work in progress. He’s learning that walks are a team effort. Fred is extremely food motivated, which makes training easy. (Did we mention, cheese works especially well?!)  Fred’s ideal home would not include cats or small critters, please. But he does GREAT with dogs his size or larger, including his foster brother George, who is nearly twice his size. Fred lives with three kids (ages 11, 16, and 16) and is doing wonderfully. Because he’s big and can be clumsy with his size, a home with children over 10 is the best fit. Fred isn’t looking for perfection, just a family who appreciates a big personality and an even bigger heart. Fred is available for adoption through Buffalo Underdogs Rescue. Please share Fred. Somewhere out there is a family looking for exactly this much dog. ##2865061##

Story
Bridget arrived at NCCR on 8/22/26, transferred out of a full-to-capacity shelter that ran out of room. She is a 7-9 year old spayed female, believed to be a Boxer mix. Bridget is a wonderfully gentle soul, a calm girl that gets along fine with most other dogs, and cats, too!She is looking for a soft place to land where she can receive the care & kindnessshe deserves. She will be sure to repay you with lots of love and devotion. Just look at those soulful eyes!More pictures and info to come as we get to know her better.*Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure she is a great fit.Not sure if you are ready to adopt? Please consider applying to foster Bridget, which will lead to a happily ever after adoption, either with you, or the family you help get her ready for! Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience. Learn more and apply on our website, under the “Get Involved” tab. If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
