Abby

Doberman Pinscher

Female, Adult

Colborne, ON

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Abby! Typical to her lineage, this beautiful girl is full of energy, and is at her best when she has lots of opportunities to use her brain and move her body. She is currently in a boarding facility and enjoys the company of other dogs, but we feel she might do best as solo dog as she does show signs of possessiveness of her people, and might be happiest not having to share the attention. While she has no issues with the kennel kitty at her current residence, Abby was returned from an adoptive placement as she would give chase the cats in the home. While we feel this may have been due to a need for more stimulation, it may be most ideal to find Abby a pet-free home.Abby does have a few quirks, that we feel only make her more endearing! She has a very toothy bark, which can appear intimidating, but don't let that fool you. Her kindness shows through in her eyes, and she has demonstrated zero signs of aggressive behaviour. She also has a tendency to hover protectively over her food, toys and treats, but has not had any negative reactions to anyone nearby. However, this may be something she needs to work on over time until she understands that her people or other animals are not a threat to the items she values.Abby would benefit greatly from attending obedience classes to strengthen her leash skills and basic manners. She does pull on a traditional leash, but we have found a halti to be an effective way of controlling this. Generally as her excitement and curiosity wanes during her walks, she settles nicely. She is fully house trained, and is fine in the car.Due to her energy level, Abby would benefit from having a fully fenced yard where she can supplement her walks with yard play to keep her in balance. As a very smart girl, she would love challenging games and activities that make her use her brain.If you would like to be considered for Abby, please visit our web site at www.K9C.ca to complete our online application. Only those will be reviewed by our placement team. Please note, our dogs are placed on a "best fit" basis and not first come first served. Due to the high volume of apps we receive, only those deemed to be a potential match will be contacted.

Pal

Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier Shih Tzu

Male, Young

Colborne, ON

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Meet Pal! This young dog is looking for a quiet, low-activity home. His ideal match would be an active senior, or retiree. He loves human companionship, but it does take him some time to trust and warm up to any kind of physical touch. Loud noises also tend to stress him out, and this is why a quiet home is ideal for Pal.If you are looking for a walking companion, look no further than Pal! This little cutie is new to leash walks, but is quite comfortable passing people and other animals, greeting everyone with a wagging tail. As an undersocialized dog, he seems to enjoy taking in all the sights, sounds and smells, and has lots of endurance for good long walks. but is also happy to take shorter walks....he is just happy to be walking!Pal is exceptionally clean and well-mannered in the home. He has no destructive behaviours, and is learning to sleep in his crate at night. Pal can be a little toy possessive so it may be best not to offer toys to him as he can become very protective of them. We would not recommend Pal for a home with cats as he does like to chase and bark a them. He is currently sharing his foster home with other dogs, but we feel he would be happiest as a solo dog just because he benefits from lower activity in his home environment.Pal is not at all food motivated. Treats are not something he seems particularly interested in, but he is currently eating and enjoying a balanced home cooked diet, and could use to put on a couple of pounds. Pal does not like to be left alone, which is another reason an active senior or retiree would be a great match for him. The true way to Pal's heart is to allow him a lot of time and space to feel safe before expecting too much from him. While he does love to be loved, it seems like he may have experienced some trauma and is very unsure of new people. His adopter will need to understand that he will need time and patience to feel safe and build his confidence before he will show his softer side.As a hypoallergenic, non-shedding dog, Pal will need regular grooms to keep his coat tidy and mat-free. Because of his senstivity to touch, Pal currently needs to wear a soft muzzle while being groomed or examined at the vet. In order to be considered for pal, please complete our online application at www.K9C.ca. Successful applicants are chosen by best fit, and not first come first served. Please note that due to the high volume of applications we receive, only those we feel would be a potential match will be contacted further.

Story

Dexter brother to Duke is looking for a home with a fenced yard. He's good with other dogs with a proper introduction. A hunting dog at heart he is still a bit of a puller on a lead. He's an active boy, looking for a family or person who enjoys the outdoors. Unknown if he can be trusted off a lead. NO cats please and we're recommending children over the age of 8, with his exuberant nature he may knock smaller children over. Dexter is not appropriate for apt living and will need a fenced yard. He would do best with someone with hound knowledge. Dex is currently in care in the Colborne On area.
