Nora Fostered in London, On Vaccinated, Spayed & Microchipped Adoption Fee: $700 Good with dogs & older kids Not cat tested German Shepherd I come with 30 days of free Pet Insurance Nora is an 11-month-old sweetheart with a gentle soul and a story that makes her extra special. She came to us having only ever lived outdoors and is missing the tips of her ears (likely from frostbite), but she hasn’t let that stop her from learning what it means to be a loved, indoor pup. At first, Nora can be very shy and fearful of new people and situations. But once she feels safe and learns to trust you, her true personality shines —she’s affectionate, loyal, and full of adorable quirks. She has made amazing progress in foster care! She quickly learned how to use stairs, loves to play with other dogs, and enjoys her toys (though they don’t always survive long). She is crate trained and about 95% house trained, and will let you know if she needs out. She also sleeps well through the night. Nora walks nicely on leash most of the time but can still be nervous around strangers and reactive to other dogs, so she’ll need continued guidance and patience. She knows “sit,” is learning “down,” and is getting better with “wait.” She has no resource guarding and is eager to please. Her funniest little quirk? Nora LOVES to tip over her water bowl, carry it around, and make a splash It’s a bit messy—but totally endearing! Nora would do best in a home with a fenced yard and a family willing to continue building her confidence. She may be okay with kids, but calmer interactions are best as she can be a bit mouthy during play. Nora still needs a bit more training, but she is incredibly smart and devoted. She truly bonds with her people—she’ll even check on you if you fall 🥹 If you’re patient and ready to help her continue to grow, Nora will reward you with a lifetime of love, loyalty, and laughs.

Winston, an 10-month-old All-Canadian mixed breed, is believed to be a mix of Shepherd. Winston's endearing nature makes him incredibly difficult to resist. He exhibits a fondness for other dogs and would benefit from having a playmate in his new home. As a young dog, he enjoys outdoor activities and playtime with his canine companions. It is not uncommon to find him napping alongside other dogs after an active session of play. According to his foster caregiver, Winston displays characteristics of a "Velcro Dog," as he prefers to remain close to his human. Whether he is lying next to her while she works or simply watching television in the evening, Winston consistently seeks companionship. A household where someone is frequently present would be ideal for his overall well-being. Winston has a love food and displays excitement during feeding times. Due to the presence of other dogs in the foster environment, he is showing good doggie manners for feeding time. He demonstrates good manners when receiving treats, patiently sitting and waiting for his turn. His toys should be the "indestructible" type, as he has a tendency to dismantle them into smaller pieces, occasionally consuming these fragments. Winston has been vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. He has also received monthly preventatives. Winston's adoption fee is $750.00, which includes health records and microchip registration.

Story
Hi, I`m Shiraz! I am a wonderful, friendly, affectionate girl with a big voice. I don`t think an apartment would be the best for me, since I am quite loud and boisterious. I`m not the biggest fan of other dogs, but maybe one day I`ll come around to the idea of sharing my space.I try to keep my run clean most of the time, so it seems like I may be house trained! However, I could use some work on my leash manners, sometimes I forget there`s someone on the other end of the leash.. I do love rolling in the grass and taking in the sunshine though! I`m big and strong, weighing in at 86 lbs. If you`re looking for a loving sweet girl come down to London Animal Care Centre and lets meet. I am here!Shriaz.

Story
A large breed dog with a ton of love to give! Bella came to us very untrusting and scared of new people. After some patience and lots of treats, she has learned that new people aren`t so bad! She is a very affectionate and silly dog once she warms up to you. Bella likes to go for long walks, play with sticks, and do tricks for cookies! Her ideal home would be with someone who has experience with dogs and can continue to work on her training/ socialization so she can be the best girl possible. Bella would do best in a quiet, low traffic household. She likes to hangout with her dog friends and could possibly share her new home with a respectful calm dog. Bella has a high prey drive and would not like to share her home with a kitty. Please call the shelter and set up a time to meet with this special girl.

**IF THIS LISTING IS STILL POSTED THIS DOG IS STILL AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION. NO NEED TO EMAIL ASKING IF THE DOG IS AVAILABLE. PLEASE READ THROUGH THIS BIO THOROUGHLY AS INFORMATION ON HOW TO APPLY IS CONTAINED IN THIS LISTING** For Adoption: Pascalie! Please read our dog bios carefully to be sure that the dog you are applying for suits your family and lifestyle. We at PDR believe in the benefits of post-adoption training for our dogs and their families. This allows for continued socialization, learning and helps to create a well-mannered and balanced dog. Post-adoption training is a requirement in our adoption process. To apply for adoption and for more information on our process and requirements, visit our website at https://pounddog.ca/adoption-info/. Meet Pascalie, an adorable (and she knows it) 3 month old German Shepherd X. Pascalie is a large breed dog and although she is currently 20lbs, you can expect her to be between 40-70lbs when fully grown. Pascalie, or Calie as we call her, is a darling, highly energetic puppy looking to find her perfect forever family. Pascalie came to her foster family home at 8 weeks old. She was dumped in a park with her brother, suffering from Parvo. Thanks to caring citizens and animal control they were rescued, vetted, and saved before making her way into foster care. She now has a bright future ahead of her. Pascalie has a soft, black puppy coat with tan booties and expressive eyebrows (you can’t miss them). While we don’t know what Pascalie is mixed with, the German Shepherd breed is notorious for shedding and requires regular brushing to manage the fur. You should expect to deal with hair on clothing, furniture…and lots of vacuuming. Pascalie has not let having Parvo slow her down. Now that she is recovered, she has had her age appropriate vaccines, and a clean bill of health from the vet and is living her best puppy life. Pascalie is a great choice if you’re looking for an energetic, athletic, and friendly dog. She wants to be friends with everyone and will sit and stare at them until they notice her. She fully expects that everyone will fall for her adorableness, want to pet her, and take her home. Pascalie is also very interested in other dogs but we have limited her interaction with dogs we know are up to date on vaccines. She is a very busy pup and loves to play with toys, chew on bones, and play tug. Pascalie is working on how to calm down and relax by resting in her crate. If Pascalie was left to her own devices, she would play and have the zoomies all.day.long. To set her up for success, it is important to monitor her down time or she will become overstimulated and act out. She loves anything she can get her mouth on so constant eyes on her, consistent “ah ahs”, and rewarding with treats and praise are necessary. We are continuing to work on her nipping phase and she has shown improvement, especially if she is properly rested. She is very smart and has learned “sit”, “down”, “wait” (for food), “crate” and “off”. Due to her puppy mouthing and jumping tendencies, Pascalie, will be good with older children (over 8yrs) who’s family have experience with large dogs. It is imperative that Pascalie attend obedience school, to continue working on her basic commands, build confidence, and learn to be around other dogs. She is extremely food motivated and thrives on positive reinforcement so she should be a straight A student. She is going to be too big and strong of an adult dog not to be trained and socialized properly. We are looking for a family for her that is committed to advanced training and will take her beyond the basic level. We are working on house training and Pascalie has done pretty well, with only 2 accidents in the home in 2 weeks. She currently goes for potty breaks every 3-4 hours during the day and only needs one break during the night. She has recently been able to hold for 5 hours overnight. Regular outside breaks are necessary as she hasn’t learned to signal that she needs to go. Pascalie, is crate trained and may only fuss for a few minutes. Again, her adoptive family will have to keep up with using the crate to avoid accidents, insure she is getting proper rest, and not doing all things unwatched puppies love to do. Remember with puppies in a new home, they have to get use to new routines, so it is not unusual for accidents to happen for the first while. A puppy needs 100% supervision when not in their crates so any accidents in the home are going to be human error. Puppies are a lot of work and anyone interested in Pascalie needs to have the time and schedule for her needs. Pascalie’s ideal home would be a detached or semi detached home with a fenced yard for her to run and play. She would also be fine in a home without a fence. Just know that you have to take her out on a leash for her potty breaks, multiple times a day, including overnight for the next little bit. The fenced yard is not to make up for walks…she will still need 2-3 per day. Pascalie’s foster home has a medium size, active 3 year old dog. They play well together outside the home. Inside the home, Pascalie loves to jump and nip so any other dog in the home must be good natured, patient, and willing to let Pascalie know when enough is enough. Having another acitve dog in the home to be a role model for her, and to walk/hike/run (when old enough), and play with would be great but not mandatory if her people are committed to her exercise, socialization, training and have the time to focus on a puppy. If there is another dog in the home it will need to be a male dog that is playful and tolerant of puppy energy. Daily work is needed on her physical and mental exercise. Currently, Pascalie is walked 3x a day for 15-20 minutes and that will need to be increased as she gets older. She also gets play time with toys, whether it’s chasing a ball, playing tug, or throwing her squeaky toys to pounce on them…she loves a good squeaky toy for 10-15 minutes every few hours. Pascalie also loves her puzzle bowl for meals, frozen kongs, and homemade enrichment toys, like kibble hidden in a towel. Time is also spent on training her basic commands. Her adoptive family will need to understand that this is a commitment and dedicate time for this throughout the day to set her up for success. Other than our dog, Pascalie has not had much opportunity to socialize with other dogs. The couple that she has met, she is very confident and playful. Her people need to have the time for her and be able to pay attention to her and exercise her. She is going to be an energetic and athletic adult dog so her people need to be active, outdoorsy types able to physically manage her adult dog exercise needs. She will be a dog that will want to be out all year long for runs, walks, hikes, you name it. This is an all season, all weather type dog. For busy outdoorsy types, this is the dog for you! Pascalie is a good puppy, but a puppy none the less and puppies are tiring and need constant support while they grow and navigate the world. Overall Pascalie is the epitome of what you would expect of a Shepherd X puppy. She is non-stop fun, athletic, and smart. She is going to make an active family VERY happy and will be a great addition to anyone who has a lot of time, energy, and love to give. We can’t wait to see what the world has in store for this munchkin!
