Story
Ricky is an approximately14 year-old neutered male Corgi (best guess) mix weighing approximately 40 pounds.  Ricky came into rescue when his owner of 10 years was no longer able to provide for him.   Speaking of Dogs quickly discovered that Ricky had bladder stones when he first arrived.  The stones have been successfully removed and he has fully recovered. He is currently on potassium citrate tablets 2x a day which he takes with his meals.  He is also on veterinary food to prevent crystals in his urine.  His last vet check showed that he is doing well and is crystal free.  He is happy and very proud of his speedy recovery and 10 pound weight loss!!!   Ricky is a loving and loyal dog who believes he is the perfect size to sit in your lap.  He adores putting his head on your lap and getting his ears rubbed. He will lean into your legs and put a paw in your lap if you stop petting him before he has had enough.    Ricky has 2 or 3  thirty minute walks each day as well as zoomies in the fully fenced backyard to help him maintain a healthy weight. He also thoroughly enjoys playing tug with his toys. Ricky enjoys being active outside in both summer and winter. Ricky is fully housetrained and sleeps throughout the night.  He has his own bed during the day but sleeps with his foster Mum at night.   He is also excellent at riding in the car.  He  looks forward to visiting his foster "Grandma" every chance he gets.  He loves it when Grandma rubs his belly and tells him he is a good boy.   He can also be left alone in the house for 4 or 5 hours at a time without incident. He will also let you know when he wants to go out for a pee break. Ricky can be vocal and will alert his foster family to anything he perceives to be unusual in his surroundings.  This includes people and other dogs. Ricky is the only pet in the house and he prefers to be the centre of attention.  He loves to watch TV with his people and happily waits to be told he can get up on the couch.  He also waits to be told he can go get his breakfast and dinner.  Best of all Ricky knows not to be underfoot when people are cooking in the kitchen.  He is a clever dog who learns quickly with positive reinforcement training.    Currently Ricky's foster mom is working with a trainer to help with his impulse to bark when people come to the door or pass him on the street.  Ricky can be redirected with a treat and then happily meets new people with big tail wags.  He has made friends with many of the neighbours. Ricky is more reactive to other dogs he may pass on his walks. Because of his reactivity and alert barking, apartment living is not for him. To help Ricky on his walks he wears a halti with a double lead to his collar.  While still a work in progress, Ricky is making improvements seeing other dogs on the street and associates the word "bed" with a direction to settle down.  Ricky also knows the following commands:  sit, stay, down, and off and pee. If you are looking for a smart, happy, playful, loyal and loving friend who wants to be your BFF then Ricky is the dog for you.  Here is a link to our adoption application:  https://www.speakingofdogs.com/adoption/dog-adoption-application-2/ Due to time constraints, we cannot respond to every email asking for more information on a dog. Please carefully review the bio for the dog and our adoption process https://www.speakingofdogs.com/adoption/adoption-process/.  If you are still interested in adopting, please fill out the adoption application form at the bottom of that page.     October 2, 2026, 8:33 pm

Story
MEET TATER!   Name: Tater Age: 6 months Sex: Neutered Male Breed: Welsh Corgi Mix Color: Brown & White Weight: 5.7 kg (12.6 lbs) Height: 33 cm (13 in) at the shoulder   His Story   Tater was found wandering near a village community center and was eventually taken to a municipal shelter, where he was placed on the euthanasia list. Thankfully, he was rescued and given a second chance. Now this adorable little guy is ready to find his forever family!   With People   Tater likes people and is friendly with both men and women, although he doesn’t seem to have had much experience living closely with humans before.   He’ll come when called, ask for affection, and happily let even new people pet and hold him. He’s comfortable being picked up and will even roll over and show his belly to someone he’s just met.   That said, when he’s busy playing with his dog friends, people become much less interesting — he may completely ignore you when called! He can also be vocal when separated from people and sometimes barks when he wants attention or something from you.   With Other Dogs   Tater is a very social little guy who loves other dogs! He readily approaches both familiar and unfamiliar dogs to say hello and initiate play.   He especially seems to enjoy bigger dogs and can be a little cheeky and confident with dogs around his own size. If another dog picks a fight, Tater will try to stand his ground and give it right back — but truthfully, he’s not much of a tough guy. The moment things get a little too scary, he’s quick to make his escape.   Because he genuinely enjoys canine company, Tater could be a great fit for a home with another friendly dog or even a multi-dog household.   With Cats   Tater has not yet been tested with cats, but a cat test can be arranged upon request.   Energy Level   Tater has a moderate energy level and enjoys being active outdoors, but he can also settle down and relax afterward. He is still only six months old, though, so his future family should be prepared for all the normal energy, curiosity, and mischief that come with raising a puppy!   Walks   Tater doesn’t have extensive leash-walking experience yet and can be slightly cautious around unfamiliar smells or surroundings. However, he loves sniffing and generally follows his handler’s lead well.   He isn’t particularly bothered by passing cars and handles things like drainage grates without much hesitation. With continued practice and positive experiences, he should become an increasingly confident walking companion.   At Home   Tater does not guard food from either people or other dogs.   Separation anxiety has not been observed, but he does have a tendency toward demand barking and can be vocal when separated from people. Because of this, a home with very close neighbors or strict noise restrictions may not be the best fit.   He settles calmly when placed in a kennel and currently uses both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty areas. As with any puppy moving into a new environment, he’ll need patience and consistency while learning his new household routine.   Tater would be a wonderful match for a family looking for a friendly, playful, dog-social young pup who is ready to experience family life and continue learning along the way.

Story
Meet Bokdong — A Gentle, Special Boy Looking for His Forever Home   Name: Bokdong Age: 1 year old Sex: Neutered Male Breed: Mixed Breed Color: Gray/Brown Weight: 9 kg (20 lbs) Height: 34 cm (13.4 in) at the shoulder   RESCUE STORY Bokdong was rescued on April 23 from an animal hoarding situation along with his mother, Boksun, and other dogs. Despite everything he has been through at such a young age, he is a calm and gentle little boy.   MEDICAL HISTORY & SPECIAL NEEDS Veterinary examinations indicate that Bokdong has significant vision and hearing impairment. He appears to have some response to light, but for practical purposes, he should be considered visually impaired. Although he was also assessed as having hearing loss, he will occasionally bark in response to sounds outside.   Bokdong was also born with/developed an angular limb deformity in his front legs and has undergone corrective orthopedic surgery.   Bokdong’s surgery was performed to correct the abnormal bone angle, reduce uneven stress on his joints, and help minimize future pain, lameness, and progression of arthritis.   Despite his special needs, Bokdong has adapted well and enjoys a quiet, peaceful life.   ‍ WITH PEOPLE Because Bokdong cannot see normally, he does not immediately approach unfamiliar people and may startle if touched unexpectedly. Giving him a moment to realize someone is there makes a big difference.   Treats are a wonderful way to win him over! Once he becomes familiar with someone, he accepts affection and handling well. He can also be safely picked up with an arm supporting him under his belly.   WITH OTHER DOGS Bokdong will approach unfamiliar dogs to say hello but generally has little interest in playing with them. He occasionally responds when his littermate, Kkami, initiates play.   He is very non-confrontational and tends to move away rather than react if another dog bothers or challenges him. Overall, he is quite independent around other dogs and is perfectly happy simply sharing space with them.   WITH CATS Bokdong has not yet been observed around cats. Cat testing can be arranged if needed.   ENERGY LEVEL Low energy. Bokdong is naturally calm and loves relaxing and resting. He would likely thrive in a peaceful home where life is relatively predictable and he can learn his surroundings at his own pace.   WALKS Because of his limited vision, unfamiliar routes can initially make Bokdong nervous. Once he becomes familiar with a route, however, he walks much more confidently.   If he becomes frightened or uncertain, he may stop and resist being pulled forward. He will do best with a patient adopter who allows him time to understand and become comfortable with new surroundings.   OTHER BEHAVIOURS • No food guarding with people or other dogs • Occasionally barks when he hears or senses something outside • May occasionally demand-bark when he wants something • Can become anxious when first placed in a kennel and may howl quite a bit initially, but settles with time • Primarily goes potty outdoors   IDEAL HOME Bokdong doesn’t need anyone to feel sorry for him — he needs someone who understands that he experiences the world a little differently.   A calm, patient adopter who can give him consistency, gently introduce him to new environments, and allow him time to memorize his home and walking routes would be ideal. His limited sight and hearing may require some adjustments, but Bokdong has already shown how well he can adapt when he feels safe.   For the right person, this quiet little boy has so much love and companionship to give.

Story
Hi, future family 🧡 My name is Nut, and I’m a 1-year-old boy with a round little body, short legs, and a face that makes people smile the moment they see me. I’m about 10kg, and people say I look like a mix of Shiba Inu, Welsh Corgi, and Jindo. Somehow, I got the best parts of all three — a bright Shiba face, the gentle charm of a Jindo, and tiny Corgi legs that wiggle along when I walk. Apparently, the way I toddle toward people is “extremely cute.” I hear that a lot. But before I got this second chance, my story was almost over. I was rescued from a city shelter just before euthanasia. If help had come any later, I wouldn’t be here today writing this to you. Even though my past was difficult, I still love people very much. I never stopped hoping someone kind would choose me. I’m actually pretty friendly when meeting new people. I like staying close to humans, and if you look at me or talk to me, my tail starts wagging almost immediately. I really enjoy attention, affection, and simply being near the people I love. I also get along well with other dogs and enjoy running around or relaxing beside dog friends. I do have one funny little habit though… Sometimes I get a tiny bit jealous. If another dog is getting all the attention, I might quietly squeeze my way in or try to remind everyone, “Hey… I’m here too!” But it’s not aggressive at all — it’s more like a little kid asking not to be forgotten. Honestly, I just love people so much that I want to be included in the love too. There’s something important I hope you understand about me: Living in a real home will be completely new for me. I’ve spent my life in shelter environments, so things like house routines, walking politely on leash, waiting alone, potty habits, and understanding family life are all things I’m still learning. At first, I might make mistakes, get overly curious, feel nervous in a new place, or show lots of puppy energy. But that doesn’t mean I’m a “bad” dog — it just means I’ve never truly had the chance to learn what family life feels like. Rescue dogs like me sometimes need time to adjust. For the first few days or weeks, I may seem shy, overwhelmed, or different from what you expected. New environments can feel scary at first. But if you stay patient and give me time, I promise I’ll slowly begin to relax, trust, and show you more and more of my real personality. And I think… my real personality is pretty lovable. I’m the little dog who trots after you on short legs. The one who looks at you with bright eyes whenever you call my name. The one who simply wants to be loved and included in your life. Once, I was standing at the edge of goodbye. Now, I’m waiting for a forever family who will give me a warm home, kind patience, and a life where I never have to feel unwanted again. If you choose me, I’ll spend the rest of my life loving you with my whole heart. 🧡

Story
Solmi's story is one of resilience, hope, and second chances. Before joining the safety of the rescue, Solmi was placed on the euthanasia list at a city shelter in South Korea. Thankfully, the rescue team reached her in time, and she arrived at Big Dog in April 2025. Since then, she has shown everyone exactly who she is-a gentle, loving girl whose greatest joy is simply being close to people. If you're looking for a dog who will happily curl up beside you after a walk, Solmi is your girl. She absolutely adores affection and will gladly lean in for pets, cuddles, and gentle hugs. Her calm, affectionate nature makes her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal best friend. Solmi has limited experience with children, so a home with respectful older children would be the best fit. She also enjoys spending time with other dogs, happily running and playing in the yard before settling down for a well-earned nap. While she doesn't need another dog in the home, she would do well either as an only dog or with a friendly canine companion. She is currently learning her house manners. She is also becoming comfortable with her crate and is learning that it can be a safe, cozy place to relax. Although she has shown no reaction to cats, introductions would need to be managed thoughtfully, and further cat testing can be arranged if needed. After everything she has been through, Solmi hasn't lost her trust in people. In fact, she seems to believe that everyone she meets could become her next friend. She has so much love to give and is simply waiting for a family who will give her the happy ending she has always deserved. Good with women: Yes Good with men: Yes Good with kids: Yes, older children recommended as her interactions with kids has been limited Good with other dogs: Yes, plays well with other dogs and loves running around the yard Good with cats: Possible, shows no reaction - further testing can be done House trained: In training, prefers doing her business outside, but recognizes pee pads (indoors) Crate trained: In training Energy level: Medium, she's active but loves to rest near people and be handled Can be handled/touched: Yes, loves physical affection and being held Barker: No Flight risk: No, but extra caution should always be taken in the beginning Food aggressive: None Current food: Kirkland Signature Adult Formula Walks on leash: Yes, matches the pace of the person without pulling on the leash Leash reactive to people or dogs: No Rides well in car: Rides well but may have slight car sickness in long rides - should subside with practice Destructive: No Needs a home with a yard: Preferred Needs a home with another dog: No Can live in an apartment: Possible, provided she gets regular exercise Please visit our website niagaradogrescue.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs.
