Story
Chance / Neutered Male / 65lbs / Black Lab mix / Dogs: Yes / Cats: No / Kids: Yes Remember Chance? This sweet boy came to us from Manitoba in mid-December, and after completing his veterinary work, he’s now ready to find his forever family! 🐾❤️ Chance is a cuddle lover through and through. Whether it’s snuggling up with his humans or lounging around with his foster sister Willow, he’s always ready for some affection. When he’s not napping or snuggling, you can catch him playing with his favorite squeaky toys, or looking out the window for people watching opportunities. He’s got a big heart and is super smart—he already knows sit, focus, lay down, and shake a paw! 🐶 Though Chance has the energy of a young Lab, he’s also incredibly sweet and gentle. He loves people of all ages (especially when they give belly rubs!) and is great with other dogs. He’s also food-motivated and eager to please, which makes him an ideal candidate for continued training. Chance would thrive in an active home where he can burn off his energy and continue to learn new skills. He would absolutely benefit from obedience classes to help him become the best boy he can be. 🏃‍♂️💡 Chance is not cat-friendly and should not be adopted into a home with cats or small pets. He’s house-trained and does okay in the crate, but would benefit from ongoing crate training and structure. He LOVES car rides and can’t wait to hit the road with his new family! 🚗💨 Chance is a truly kind and loving soul who’s ready to bring so much joy to his forever family. If you think you can provide the active and loving home this boy deserves, apply today! 💖 Chance is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He is being fostered in Guelph.

Story
MORE PHOTOS/VIDEOS: https://www.facebook.com/TLCRR https://www.instagram.com/taffyslegacycaninerescue taffyslegacy.com/selma Selma was pulled from a list of dogs who were going to be euthanized. We know she is a tough case based on how fearful she is, however we had the room to give her a chance and so far, she’s exceeded all of our expectations. We hope that with training and time we can help her find balance in her scared little brain and see that people really aren’t so bad. First impressions: Strangers: Extremely timid with people, we pulled this girl knowing full and well that she will take a couple months of training and rehabilitation to become adoptable. At present she is very fearful, shies away and will not approach new people she does not know. Dogs: Loves ALL dogs. Selma is very dog social and will match the play style of her friends. She is currently living in our Kennel, where she gets to go out to Doggie Daycare multiple times a week to spend time with many of her friends. When the play gets too intense, she becomes submissive and rolls on her back, so she makes the perfect playmate for many dogs. Cats: Unsure with cats, we will test her once she settles in. She is however quite prey driven towards the resident chickens, noteworthy, but this does not necessarily mean she couldn't live with cats. Kids: Though we have not tested her with children we feel that based on her timid-ness she'd do best in an adult only home with another canine companion who is confident to show her the ropes, this could change after spending some time in care. Crate: Selma is clean in her kennel and goes in and although the first few days she was apprehensive going out, she has no hesitation going back in, she seems to like her kennel! Leash: Clearly has minimal or no leash experience and acts semi-feral on leash. She panics, tries to get away and gator rolls when leashed. This is currently being worked on. Car Skills: Thus far, she has shown to be quiet in her crate. Energy Level: Medium to high energy, runs like the wind outside, but settles quickly in her kennel. Confidence: Very unsure, will need consistent training and positive reinforcement to build her up. Affection: With the people she trusts she will lean into you and then flop over for belly rubs, but does take time to build this trust. Resources: Has not shown any issues with people or other dogs thus far. Training: very food motivated, takes food a little rough, but is eager to train. Behavioural: Even though Selma was the equivalent of semi-feral when leashed at the shelter, she showed no indication of wanting to bite. Given her level of fear, this was reason enough to give her a chance. Behaviourally, she will need work on building confidence and counterconditioning her aversion to the leash (which admittedly has already improved leaps and bounds). Best traits: absolutely adorable, great with all dogs, clean in her kennel, food motivated and eager to train. Needs improvement: Positive introductions to the leash and building confidence with humans. Selma is in perfect health! She currently has her spay appointment scheduled for the end of Nov 2023, and has one more booster shot left to be completed. Otherwise, she is up to date on her vetting. **She has not yet been heartworm tested** ADOPTION PROCESS: taffyslegacy.com/adoption-process

Story
Rocky is one of the smaller male pups from a litter of 10. He is a challenging pup who pushes every limit he can! He will need a firm, patient owner who sets boundaries and stand by them. Like his brothers, he is a typical little boy who loves to run and chase and wrestle until it's time to eat. He will be a large dog, as both mom and dad are over 75 pounds. He is looking for a forever home that has some experience with the food motivated lab and stubborn mastiff. It is recommended that he attend a puppy socialization class to become comfortable with friends who are not his siblings. He will be visiting the vet this week for his vaccines, flea and tick treatment, microchip, and wellness screening. He will come with a voucher for his neuter at 6 months of age at our vet in Woodstock. His adoption fee is $500. You must be 21 years old to adopt and provide vet and personal references. An application to adopt him can be found on our website www.oxfordcountyanimalrescue.com. Click on Adopt, then Dogs for Adoption and scroll to the bottom of the page. All applications are reviewed, and if we feel you might be a good fit for him, you will be contacted to arrange a home visit as well as for permission to speak with your vet. Repeated phone calls and emails with not advance your application. We are a volunteer, foster based rescue and there is no opportunity to meet him before an application has been approved. We thankyou for respecting these guidelines.

Story
Meet Stephie! Stephie is the ultimate easygoing and affectionate companion. She’s a certified velcro dog with major FOMO, wherever you go, she wants to go too! Whether it's hiking a trail, running errands, or simply walking to the kitchen, she’ll happily tag along. She’s an incredibly happy and gentle girl who loves to engage in play, especially fetch, but is just as content snuggling up for some love and attention. Stephie is also very food motivated and will excitedly bounce around whenever treats are involved, just be mindful of leaving food within her reach, because she’s eager to try anything! Stephie is great with other dogs and has shown neutral, polite greetings both inside the home and on walks. She is also good with children of all ages. While she hasn't met any cats yet, she’s an easygoing pup with a sweet nature. She’s not a fearful dog but is a little cautious and curious in new situations. Loud noises might startle her briefly, but she quickly recovers and continues on her way. Stephie is nearly perfect on leash, walking calmly with minimal pulling, sometimes she even lags a little behind, just enjoying the stroll. She’s still working on her house training and crate training. While she settles after a few minutes of whining at night, she would much rather be curled up next to her person. She hasn’t been left alone for long periods yet, but she has shown no signs of destructive behaviour. Stephie would thrive in a home where she can be part of the action and always by her family’s side. Whether you’re an active household or a quieter one, she’s adaptable and just happy to be included. She’s truly the most loving and loyal girl, her future family will be so lucky to have her! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Stephie?
