Story
Available for Adoption! A few months ago, we found an amazing family for Loki’s brother Hawk, and now it is his turn to find his forever family! Sadly, Loki’s owner was not able to care for him like she had hoped and wants him to have the best life; he is such a loved boy and will be spending his time at a foster until he is adopted! Name: Loki Location of dog: Midland, Ontario Breed: Presa Canario Weight: 80lbs Gender: Male Spayed/Neutered: no, will be at appropriate age Age: 8 months (DOB: July 29, 2024) Energy Level: low-med Medical (shots etc): 1st shots – will be fully vaccinated before being adopted Microchipped: no, will be when neutered Good with dogs: yes, better with bigger dogs – is fostered with 2 females and is loving life! Good with cats: yes Good with kids: dog savvy kids Good with strangers: yes Guarding Issues: yes House Trained: yes Crate Trained: yes Destructive: normal puppy behavior Leash skills: good Okay with manipulations: yes Known commands: sit, stay, no, shake paw, down, fist pump and come Behavior Issues: jumps up when excited Medical issues: no Other Observations: Loki is a pretty laid-back guy. He LOVES his balls and not only will bring it to you to throw for him but will also just play alone with it rolling and bouncing it then going after it. Loki knows how to sit, shake paw, fist bump, lay, down and come. He knows no and quiet but sometimes struggles to listen for long but he tries. Loki gets fed about 2 cups of food at 7am and again at 4 pm. His bedtime is around 8pm. He loves to sleep in his crate on his back with his legs up in the air. Loki has been learning to walk nice and to have good manners in the house. Loki has grown up with two feline friends who he is extremely gentle with. Loki loves to run and jump in the yard. From Loki’s Foster: Loki enjoys chew toys, but they must be robust, virtually indestructible. Loki is neutral when it’s bath time. He doesn’t love it nor does he hate it, Loki will indicate when he’s had enough by trying to get out. Loki doesn’t mind being brushed. Loki is absolutely okay with having his paws wiped clean when he comes back from walks. He hasn’t demonstrated to be reactive to seeing other dogs when out for a walk. He’s reminded to ‘leave it’ and he carries on. Loki is still working on not jumping up on his persons when excited. Also note, his sheer size makes him the ultimate counter surfer, and he has incredible reach. We are working on this as well. He is a good boy, and will seek out some pets by resting his head on your leg. He’s very smart, and responds well to praise and high value treats. He currently gets crated a couple of times a day for naps and chill time. At bedtime, he settles quickly and remains quiet throughout the night. He gets along well with his foster sisters. They have also been teaching him manners. He is very playful. He is absolutely adorable, and loving.

Mila

Presa Canario

Female, 1 yr 4 mos
Kitchener, ON
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Story
MORE PHOTOS/VIDEOS: https://www.facebook.com/TLCRR https://www.instagram.com/taffyslegacycaninerescue https://www.taffyslegacy.com/mila Mila was adopted from animal control in August of 2023 by a friend of TLC's Director, someone they had met years ago in rescue. At the beginning of October, they received a call from animal control as they were listed as the emergency contact for their friend’s dogs. They were informed by the animal control officer that their friend had been taken by ambulance and that she was non-verbal. Unfortunately, their friend ended up having cancer and passed away two weeks later. First impressions: Dogs: Can be reactive to some dogs through her kennel, however we introduced her to Bob and the two of them hit it off immediately. She played rough from the get go and was “boxing” him with her paws relentlessly until he finally gave in and played. Her lack of boundaries with other dogs could get her into trouble as surely not all dogs would appreciate this overzealous playstyle. Cats: Unsure with cats, we will test her once she has settled in. Kids: Though we have not tested her with children we feel she would be best in an adult only home or a home with older dog savvy children. Her tail is a whip and she is a bit of a wild girl. Strangers: Friendly, outgoing, hyper and likes to jump up. Crate: Mila has been having frequent accidents in her kennel despite adequate let outs. We believe she is having accidents as an attention seeking behaviour and we are working to try to fulfill her through play with other dogs, exercise and training to curb this behaviour. Leash: A bit of a wild girl on leash, however she does settle fairly quickly and takes corrections well. Car Skills: Mila travels well and is quiet in the car so long as she is tethered/crated. We feel given her energy level she may be a bit of a pest if left loose. Energy Level: Medium. Mila is an energetic girl, but can be fulfilled through physical activities, such as walks and play, and mental stimulation activities like puzzles. Confidence: Fairly confident, however she would definitely benefit from a confident handler who will advocate for her and continue to build her up. Affection: Mila is extremely affectionate and loves pets, however she is a bit of an unruly puppy trapped in an adult dog’s body and likes to mouth, jump up and is overall a bit rude. Resources: Has not shown any issues with people or other dogs thus far, though we really haven’t had much opportunity to test this around other dogs. Behavioural: Mila is a wild child and as mentioned above, does enjoy practicing rude puppy behaviour (mouthing, jumping etc.). Training: This girl loves food and is eager to train. She is smart and offers behaviours readily. It will not take much to get her on her best behaviour so long as she has a consistent trainer. Best traits: affectionate, playful, silly and fun to train. Needs improvement: Discouraging jumping, mouthing and general bratty behaviour through training. ADOPTION PROCESS: taffyslegacy.com/adoption-process
