Story
Name: Samantha Breed: Rottweiler Age/Sex: ~2020, FS Health Concerns: None at this time Good with: Breed experienced, responsible teenagers NO DOGS. NO CATS. NO DOG PARKS Samantha is an exuberant young girl, who is ready to start the best chapter of her life! She was found as a stray, so she's starting a fresh new page, and is writing her own history. Samantha is very confident, and forward. She does not appear to have received much training in her previous life, and is working hard on understanding concepts such as impulse control, and leash pressure. She is strong, and used to throwing her weight around to get what she wants. She is doing very well with her crate training, though can be destructive if bored. She cannot have soft bedding material, a Kuranda style bed is best. Samantha has excellent food and toy drive, and will play for hours. She loves the water, and everything is fun and exciting. This is no couch potato girl, she's an active working girl, and she knows it! She enjoys working for her ball, has been introduced to disc rollers, and is always up for learning something new. She is very green, and easy to take in any direction. Samantha has shown some selectivity with people, but with proper intros, and some food, is easily bribed. Staying on top of her training to ensure good choices, is key. If you get lax with her, she will absolutely take it, and run with it. Due to her nature and forward personality, homes with teenagers that can be actively involved in her training, and are comfortable establishing boundaries with a powerful, guardian breed, will be considered. Samantha has made it quite clear that she does not want to share her personal space with other pets. She can be neutral, but will get very forward and aggressive, if they enter her space. She has done very well learning to be neutral, and with continued management, should be fine in a wide variety of sporting environments. Samantha is a fabulous rottweiler, very green, and ready to go in any direction. She is a joy to work with, and very affectionate with her person.

Story
My name is Rocco,At first glance, I may look like the kind of dog who could guard a castle — broad chest, strong stance, that classic Rottweiler confidence. But spend even a moment with me, and you’ll realize I am just a big, soft, sucky boy who wants nothing more than a human to love. I am wonderful with strangers, gentle with children, and happiest when I am a part of the family action. I like to say I thrive on connection with people and would make an incredible companion for someone who wants a loyal, affectionate shadow.Here is what I am looking for: • A loving home where I can be the only dog• A family or individual who appreciates a big, cuddly companion• Someone who understands that behind my tough guy looks is a total sweetheartMy ideal Home includes: Children: YesOther dogs: NoCats: NoFirst time owner: An experienced owner would benefit meFenced in yard: could do well with or without a fenced in yard. Housing environment: apartment/house with a yard. Someone home most of the day: I do well on my ownSome other things to know: Activity level: Medium House trained: yesBirth date: 06.09.18

I just need someone willing to go slow, believe in me, and watch me bloom.My ideal home involves: Children: No thank you Other dogs: still assessing- seems curiouscats: unknown- has never lived with cats First time dog owner: Experienced owner Fenced in Yard: Yes - 6feet fence House: house with a yard fenced in/ apartment Someone home most of the day: left alone for an 8hr work day is fine.

I’ll follow you from room to room, curl up beside you during quiet evenings, and happily trot old or new adventures with you.

I don’t need anything fancy—just someone who sees the sweetness in me and wants to help me feel brave.Children: older children Other dogs: she is timid at first but doing well with other dogsCats: unknown, has not lived with cats beforeFirst time dog owners: experienced dog owner neededFenced in yard: yes or rural property not fenced. will need training and supervisionHousing environment: house/ apartment Someone home most of the day: An 8hr work day would be fineActivity level- medium-highhouse trained: YesBirthdate: 05.12.24If you are interest in getting to know Rose please fill out an adoption profile on our website or call the shelter for more information at 519/833.2287

Story
Copper is an approximately 3-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback mix who arrived at the shelter as an unclaimed stray, and he’s been quietly learning that the world can be a safe place ever since. When Copper first came in, he was a very timid and nervous boy who would retreat to the back of his kennel when staff approached. Everything felt overwhelming, and he needed time to decompress and adjust at his own pace. With patience, consistency, and gentle care, Copper has started to show just how much he is capable of growing. Today, Copper is beginning to truly shine. He can now often be found at the front of his kennel with a softly wagging tail, ready to greet familiar faces. He moves in and out of his kennel nicely and has shown that he is comfortable with handling and care, remaining calm even during more invasive handling such as having multiple ticks removed. He has also been comfortable being rotated alongside other dogs, continuing to build his confidence in a social environment. While Copper is still a shy boy when meeting new people, his progress is clear. He now approaches cautiously with a relaxed body and a gentle tail wag, warming up much more quickly than before. Volunteers have noted that once he is away from the shelter building, his confidence grows significantly and his true personality begins to come forward. Copper already knows several basic commands including sit, paw, other paw, and down, suggesting he has had some prior training. He appears to be house trained and keeps a clean kennel. With continued positive reinforcement training, he will benefit from further work on leash manners, confidence building, and socialization. His volunteer friends have had many wonderful things to say about him: “Loves treats and cuddles.” “Lovely boy, super affectionate, walks well on leash, very gentle when taking treats.” “Initially a little shy and nervous but warmed up really quickly, liked to be petted and touched.” On walks, Copper enjoys exploring and engaging with the world, though he can still be strong on leash at times and may be easily distracted by squirrels. Even so, he settles well overall and continues to improve with guidance and reassurance. After a recent walk, he returned with a loose body, wide wagging tail, and an open, relaxed expression — a beautiful sign of how far he’s come. Copper will need a patient, understanding adopter who can provide a calm, structured home and prioritize ongoing training, secure handling, and gradual socialization. He can startle easily and may be a flight risk in unfamiliar situations, so safe containment and careful leash management are very important. He would also benefit from continued positive reinforcement-based obedience classes to help build confidence and strengthen his skills. Copper is still a work in progress, but he is already showing what a gentle, affectionate, and promising dog he can be. In the right home, with patience and kindness, Copper has every opportunity to blossom into a deeply loyal and loving companion. If you think you can provide a home for Copper please submit an application using the link below: https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions Copper has a future appointment to be neutered. He will be ready to go to his forever home after he has recovered from this surgery. Animal adoptions and viewing are by appointment only. This allows our Adoption Staff to spend quality time with each potential home to ensure the most successful matches are made between the animals and their new families. *Please note: we only adopt within Ontario
