Story

Oreo is a 3-year-old male Border Collie/Jindo mix who was rescued from a shelter just before he was scheduled for euthanasia. Sadly, and for unknown reasons, before finding himself abandoned and alone at the shelter, his teeth had been deliberately ground down. Amazingly and despite this, he remains a lively, energetic, and otherwise healthy dog who is remarkably intelligent, craves human interaction, and is very loyal to his guardian. Oreo has the exceptional intelligence typical of Border Collies, fully understanding various commands such as "sit," "wait," and "house." He is also deeply loyal to his guardian and has a strong capacity for forming deep bonds typical of the Jindo breed. He is truly a remarkable dog who has the capacity to grow into an even more amazing companion through continued obedience training and by establishing a trusting relationship with his guardian. Oreo is incredibly affectionate and loves people. He is also very social and gets along well with other dogs. However, he has a habit of jumping when excited, which requires caution when a person is interacting with him in a low position. With consistent training, this behavior can be corrected. Being highly energetic, Oreo possesses excellent jumping ability. At the training center, he has been known to leap over fences—not out of a desire to escape, but due to his curiosity and strong attachment to his guardian. In fact, he has demonstrated behavior where he jumps over a fence when he hears his guardian's voice outside, only to return shortly after. For this reason, families with yards should ensure proper supervision, and a high-fenced environment may be more suitable. The Ideal Family for Oreo is: ✔️ Someone who understands the high intelligence and energy levels of Border Collies, the exceptional loyalty of Jindos, and can provide sufficient mental and physical stimulation ✔️ Someone with experience in training or handling large dogs ✔️ Someone who values bonding with their dog and is ready to build a deep connection ✔️ Someone who can provide ample space for Oreo to move and exercise freely Despite his heartbreaking past, Oreo still loves people and finds his greatest happiness in being with his guardian. With so much intelligence and energy, he has limitless potential to become the perfect lifelong companion if he meets the right family, one that understands him and is ready to provide him with love, care, and proper training. Oreo is waiting for his new family! ❤️

All our dogs are vaccinated, sterilized and are fostered in homes with families. NOBARS believes that a dog is best assessed for a new home environment by living in one!!!! Therefore we do not use kennels, but have a network of approved foster homes where our dogs can be properly assessed before being offered for rehoming. Our foster homes offer a varied range of experiences which means we can choose an appropriate foster home for each dog, but it also means our dogs are able to experience situations which are invaluable to owners looking to take on a new forever friend, such as children, cats and other dogs. http://www.facebook.com/NOBARSRESCUE?ref=hl http://www.nobordersanimalrescuesociety.ca Adoption fee $800

Story

🏠Currently in a Seattle foster home Hi there, I’m Charlie! 🐾 I’m an 1-year-old boy with a small, adorable frame — I weigh about 5.6kg (just over 12 pounds). I may be little, but I have a big heart full of love, curiosity, and playful energy. 🧡 My Personality I’m a cheerful pup who’s always curious about the world around me. New places and experiences can feel a little overwhelming at first, so I might be a bit shy when I first arrive. But give me a few days, a little patience, and a lot of love — and soon you’ll see my true personality shine through! I warm up quickly and love spending time with people once I feel safe. I’m playful, affectionate, and I enjoy being part of the action. Whether it's following you around the house or snuggling after a bit of playtime, I just want to be close to you. 🐶 I’m Still Learning! Since I’m still a young pup, I’m working on learning all the basics — like potty training and how to walk nicely on a leash. I need a kind and patient family who can guide me with calm encouragement and help me build confidence through positive experiences. With time, consistency, and love, I’ll learn quickly and grow into a well-mannered little gentleman. 💫 What I Need A patient and loving home willing to teach me Positive guidance as I learn about the world A safe space to explore, play, and rest Plenty of cuddles and reassurance A forever family who believes in me 💕 I may be small, but I have so much love to give — and so much life to live. If you’re ready to welcome a sweet, playful, and loyal companion into your heart, I’d love to be the one. Will you be my forever family? With tail wags and puppy kisses, Charlie 🐶✨

Story

I’m a 1 year and 11-month-old boy, a Jindo-Terrier mix, weighing about 21kg. I had a rough start in life — all my siblings found homes, but I ended up on the euthanasia list at a shelter. Thankfully, I was rescued just in time, and now I’m healthy, happy, and patiently waiting for my forever family. I’m gentle, friendly, and love making new doggy friends. I get along well with most dogs, though if someone is too loud or pushy, I might take a small step back — I’m cautious, not aggressive. With people, I’m calm and sweet. I love sniffing new friends and leaning into pets like to say, “Go ahead, I don’t mind!” Sudden movements or high-pitched voices can startle me at first, but if you reach out gently, I’ll quickly wag my tail and open my heart. I’m great with kids and adults, men and women. I even met children before and had no problems at all. I’m generally people-loving and approach strangers comfortably. I do have a little quirk with cats — I ignore ones that stay put, but sometimes chase cats that run. So I’d do best in a home without cats. Walks are my absolute favorite! I get excited when I see my harness, but after the first 5–15 minutes, I calm down and walk nicely. I love sniffing everything, and sometimes I may pull a little if I find a scent I can’t resist. Loud noises like fluttering banners, cars, or motorcycles don’t bother me much, though I might jump if a cat or bird runs by. I’m fully house-trained and go outside for all my business. I tend to mark sometimes, and I prefer natural surfaces like grass, dirt, or sand. I’m not clingy — I can relax alone at home and don’t get anxious when you go out. Inside, I enjoy quiet time and resting more than playing non-stop, and I rarely bark. I’m comfortable riding in the car, and I have no motion sickness or anxiety. I take my medicine easily and cooperate at the vet. I do dislike having my paws cleaned, but I never show aggression — I just wiggle free for a moment. I’m calm, well-socialized, and easygoing. I can live in a multi-dog home, but if I get plenty of walks and playtime, I’d also be happy as an only dog. I’m just a big, soft-hearted, easygoing boy who loves people and friends of all kinds. So, where is my forever family? I’m right here, quietly wagging my tail, waiting to meet you. 💛 With love, Mansu 🐶

Story

🏠 Currently in a Vancouver foster home Hi, my name is Hugh 🤍 I’m a male Jindo mix, 8 months old, and I weigh about 10kg (22 lb). I’m still a puppy, and the world is a little unfamiliar to me. I was rescued when I was very young and grew up living with other puppies. During my time at a foster home in Korea, I had some difficult experiences with young children who touched me too much and didn’t know when to stop. Because of that, I’ve learned to be cautious about approaching people first. But that’s not the whole story of who I am. At first, I may take a step back and quietly observe. But if you give me time and let us get to know each other, I’ll allow gentle touch, and eventually, I’ll choose to come closer on my own. Once trust is built, I’ll look at my person with soft eyes, walk over quietly, and lean against them for comfort. I’m very social with other dogs. I get along well with dogs my age and feel calm and secure when I’m around them. With unfamiliar people or new environments, I just need a little more time to adjust. During that time, I ask that you respect my pace and watch over me with patience and consistent love. I’m still only 8 months old. Before my past worries become permanent, with enough time and bonding with my person, my current cautiousness can fade away. I have so much potential to grow into a loving, affectionate, and gentle companion. I’m careful because I was hurt, but that also means I’m truly ready to learn what love is. What I need isn’t special training or advanced skills— just someone who can say, “It’s okay. Take your time.” I’m waiting for someone who will walk beside me through that time, until my heart feels safe enough to fully open. My past may have been painful, but my future can be warm— with you 🤍🐾

Story

Hello, I’m Sebastian 🐾 A 3-year-old Labrador–Doberman mix, about 27 kilos of love, elegance, and joy. I’ve got the long, lean body of a Doberman and the warm, food-loving heart of a Labrador — truly the best of both worlds. My journey hasn’t always been easy. I spent too long in a city shelter and eventually found myself on the euthanasia list. Just in time, Dream Tails stepped in and gave me a second chance, bringing me to their training center — and now I’m ready for the next chapter of my life. I get along wonderfully with other dogs and communicate beautifully with them, showing my feelings clearly and setting boundaries in a calm, respectful way. I walk nicely on leash and don’t pull, making our walks something we can both enjoy. I’m often told I’m very handsome — but what truly sets me apart is my heart. I’m overflowing with love, and every bit of attention makes my heart feel like it might burst. I can’t wait to experience the comfort of a warm home and to finally feel safe with my forever family. Because I haven’t lived in a home before, I might show a little puppy mischief at first as I adjust. With patience, guidance, and understanding, I’ll settle in and thrive — I promise my love will make it all worth it. All I’m dreaming of is a family who will give me time, kindness, and cuddles… especially cozy moments on the sofa with my mommy and daddy. 🫶🏻 Could you be my forever family?
