Story
Hello! My name is Barney!I`m a bit of a sensitive giant who is snuggly and cuddly with my human. I like to protect my human from anything and everything. I would love to have my human all to myself but might be willing to share for a couple of humans who are experienced with big guys like myself. I`m a chatty grumbler and would do well with someone who finds that endearing. I am a big softy at heart and love to play with stuffy and squeaky toys when we`re not busy hanging out watching our favorite show!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: I would do best in a calm, adult-only home without too many people.OTHER DOGS: Potentially, with an easy-going female. I can be picky about my dog friends.CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident around dogs.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has experience being the primary caregiver of a dog.FENCED-IN YARD: Recommended given my size and strength.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings given I don`t always love being with strangers in tight spaces. SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Low-medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!FOSTER ME!

Story
Hey everyone, my name is Rogue. (100 lbs)When I first came in I was very scared of everything and would not leave my kennel. The staff worked hard with me to gain my trust and I realized they are not so scary after all. I am unsure of new people and may take a bit to warm up to you, but once I do we can be best friends!! I love treats, walks and to have zoomies in the yard. My new owners need to have experience working with a reactive dog so they can help teach me how to be polite when meeting new people. At this time I should be the only animal in the home while I work on my training/behaviour. I am a good dog, I really am, I just need someone to give me a second chance. If you`d like to meet me please call the shelter and book an appointment with them, then come on in and meet me!! I`ll be waiting :)

Story
Penelope is a stunning Rottweiler mix, approximately 4–5 years old, who came to us as a stray and has been quietly winning hearts ever since. She is affectionate, intelligent, athletic, and deeply people-oriented — the kind of dog who wants to be with you, not just near you. Penelope loves people. Truly. She seeks connection, enjoys attention, and thrives when she has a job, a handler, and a sense of purpose. This weekend, she joined a canicross run and earned glowing reviews (shared below), impressing experienced runners with her composure, trainability, and heart. Honest & Educational: Penelope’s Dog-to-Dog Challenges Penelope can be barrier reactive with other dogs, particularly in stimulating environments or when dogs are vocal toward her. This behavior appears rooted in nervousness rather than intent, and she gives clear, subtle stress signals (lip licking, small whines) before escalating — which is actually excellent information for a skilled handler to work with. Based on what we have seen: She can be around other dogs at a managed distance She improves quickly when guided by a confident handler She is responsive to redirection and settles once she understands the situation Because of this, Penelope is looking for an experienced, committed adopter, ideally with Rottweiler or similar breed experience, who understands behavior management and is willing to continue her training journey. She knows basic commands (sit, stay, gentle), respects the leash despite her strength, and genuinely wants to do well — she just needs a human who knows how to guide her. The Bottom Line Penelope is not a “first dog” or an “easy mode” placement — and that’s okay. Dogs like Penelope are often the most rewarding. She is loyal, affectionate, eager to work, and deeply bonded to her people. With the right home, Penelope won’t just do well — she will shine. If you’re ready to invest time, experience, and heart into a truly special companion, Penelope may be the gem you’ve been searching for. Please complete an adoption application for our shiny Penny: https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions Penelope has a spay appointment booked for early January. She is searching for a foster-to-adopt home or foster home without other dogs prior to her 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
