Story
*This dog is located in the Niagara area*Apply to PALLIATIVE FOSTER at rebeldogrescue.com*Hey yall, Im Otis! One of my hobbies is napping, whether it be on your carpet or in your lap. I might be 65lb, but weighted blankets are a thing these days right!? I love being outdoors, and I use my nose to sniff around and take in all the fresh air. I would like to say that Im a total love bug once I get to know you! Otis has embarked on a board & train program following minor bite incidents so that we could learn more about how we can help Otis succeed and become a well-balanced and confident dog. From Otis' trainer:After working with Otis in our board and train program we have discovered he is not an aggressive dog. Otis is nervous, sensitive and fearful. Mainly to new people and loud noises. He needs an owner who will continue his training. He has learnt place, leash walking, crate training, sit, recall, release command, waiting at thresholds and waiting for food. Otis responds well to a calm, confident leader. He needs someone to help with his decision making. He is not a high energy dog so the walks and keeping his training up is all he needs. Otis will also need an owner who advocates for him, so that means making sure not to let strangers walk up on him. He is unsure of loud noises and even the vacuum cleaner. We continue to teach Otis how to walk away when he feels nervous instead of becoming defensive. This is another example of advocating for him. His new must be stepping in when he feels nervous and getting him to a place where he feels confident and safe. Otis is looking to put his bite history in the past. We are confident with the right owner he will be successful and make a wonderful companion!Name: Otis Weight: ~65lbAge ~6 yearsGender: MaleBreed: American bulldog mixColour: WhiteMedical: Skin cancer, treated for heartworms, received dental cleaning, possible allergies and has been received penicillin inj and dexamethasone inj.

*This dog is scheduled to arrive in Grimsby, Ontario on Saturday, November 2*Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website. Cornell is a nervous dog with heart of gold. Hes been at the shelter for 109 days - and has spent a lot of his formative months inside of a noisy chaotic place. He is hyper aware of all the scary noises going on at the shelter and is a pretty reserved because of it. Cornell has done great in foster, is calm and quiet in the kennel, and has been friendly with everyone he has met. He would do best in a home that has a confident and friendly dog that can help show him that the world isnt so scary. Small children may startle him and he should probably go to a home with mature kids and a house that doesnt have too much in and out foot traffic. A slow paced caring home will surely give him the confidence he needs to come out of his shell.Name: Cornell Breed: Mixed breedAge: ~9 monthsWeight: ~35lbSex: Male, neutered Colour: White and blackMedical: No concerns Good with men: YesGood with women: YesGood with kids 0-6: Unknown, no exposureGood with kids 6+: Prefer older as he is shy and needs time to decompress and warm up Good with dogs: YesGood with cats: Presumed to be good with cats with proper introduction based on cat-test; fostered with cats and will meet once decompressed House trained: 90%Crate trained: YesResource guarding: None seen Walks on a leash: Yes, but nervous and needs some coaxing Energy level: Medium once he opens up Requires detached/single home: No, but would be best outside of a city environment Separation anxiety: None seen Barker: Low-average

Story
Diamond has been with us 3 years, and in those years only 1 application that was not a match has come in. This girl is a firecracker and super high energy, but she's got the sweetest side. She makes us laugh daily and we wouldn't change a thing about her! Diamond's adoption has been donated by an amazing sponsor. All we want is to find her a loving family and home. https://form.jotform.com/213266369147057 Or you can reach out to myself Jen@fightagainstbreedracism.com or Kari, Kari@fightagainstbreedracism.com for any questions you may have. Name: Diamond Breed: American Bulldog X Weight: 47.50 lbs Gender: Spayed/Female Age: 4 years old Energy Level: Medium to High Medical: UTD Good with dogs: Selective. Social outside but don't think indoors she'd do good in a home with another dog. Unless someone was experiencing and took the time it takes to work with her. She does love to play with her rescue friends. Good with cats: No has a high prey drive for all small animals Good with kids: No young children due to her energy. Good with strangers: yes gets overly excited Guarding issues: None that have been seen Behavioural issues: can have separation anxiety in new environments. And will be destructive if left alone too long. House trained: Yes Crate trained: Yes Leash skills: still a working progress, but has come a long way since she first came to us. Pulls a lot and will try to go after small animals if she sees them. Will need someone that can control/handle her. Walks way better with a martingale. Okay with manipulations: Yes, always willing to please. Notes: Diamond is a very sweet, affectionate girl who is eager to please. She has shown to be food motivated which is a bonus for training. Diamond gets very overstimulated and excited fast. She will jump up and grab at you or the leash but she listens if you are firm with her. Diamond is your perfect companion if your looking for a dog who can keep up with an active lifestyle!

Story
Hanky Panky is our shelter goof ball! Big, Strong, Clumbsy, Highly Active, Playful, Foodie ... these are all terms that fits perfectly for Hank! Hank arrived to our shelter as a stray and so his history is a little unclear. While he has been staying with us we find Hank to be an Adult that hasn`t outgrown his puppy behaviour quite yet! You can often find Hank in the park running around, playing fetch, tug-o-war or simply just seeking some affection. He loves to be by your side and if treats are involved - He`s in! Hank loves to make friends, but is shy at first. He does take a few moments and yummy treats to open him up and taking that step to becoming your best friend. Once he feels safe, you`ll see him bounce off the walls for you to show how much your friendship means to him! Training is a work in progress and will require ongoing work with basic training and manners, as well as socialization. Hank would do best in a home with experienced owners who are comfortable with training a strong boy and an understanding of behavioural cues. He would also do best as the only pet in the home at this time. If you`re ready for our goof Hank please contact Toronto Animal Services - West Shelter at 416-338-6271 to start the adoption process.

Story
Scooby Dooby Doo, Where are you??He`s right here at Toronto Animal Services West Region as a matter of fact!This charming, active and goofy young boy brings all the fun, thrills and excitement of his namesake cartoon character. So be prepared for unexpected adventures around every corner!Mr Scoob LOVES to be around his people; whether it`s going for a nice long walk, engaging in a wrestling match, playing a game of fetch or tug in the park, or having a snooze in front of the TV. He`s gonna be your new best friend!A typical Bully-breed dog through and through, Scoob thinks nothing of leaping up into your lap and smothering you with sloppy kisses. His enthusiasm and zest for life is evident in the way he eagerly drags us out to the park every time we walk, and how he jumps up to greet everyone he encounters.Family`s with young children may find him a bit too boisterous. Though he has not met a doggie playmate here at the shelter, we feel a nice careful introduction to other well-mannered dogs may result in an excellent play session. When it comes to cats - we have no idea how that may pan out.Scoob is a little on the lean side, and could benefit from putting on a couple pounds. Scoob was recently neutered and is still recovering. He is currently wearing a satellite dish (much to his displeasure) to speed up recovery time!For more information on Scoob`s quirks and charms, and to learn about our adoption process, please contact our West Region shelter at 416-338-PAWS (7297). We are open from 10:30AM to 6:30PM!

Story
Lil Oscar is currently being fostered in Texas. 1.5 years young and the best boy! 43 pounds but still a little thin. 45-48 pounds would be ideal. We have him listed as a bulldog/ boxer mix. Lil Oscar is paralyzed on the left side of his face. This could have been caused by head trauma or stroke. He was found as a stray and picked up by ACS San Antonio. He was on the euthanasia list but the staff was so fond of him, they snuck him in the office and started begging rescues to take him. Because I have a huge heart for bully breeds, he is now an honorary chihuahua. Lil Oscar has no limitations, he just drools a lot on his left side. We add fresh pet or chicken to his dry food instead of giving him wet food and a large matt under his water and this helps him not be so messy. He still loves chewy bones and treats. He has so many great qualities, I am praying someone can see past the drool and love him anyway. ❤️ He is great with cats, kids, dogs. He walks perfect on leash, rarely barks, is potty trained, well socialized and he is a giant baby. He is full of love, so gentle, doesn’t jump up on you and he is great with little dogs too. He has a beautiful white coat, does not mark, squats to pee. He is a gentle soul and full of so much love to give. So please give him a chance. Approved adopters please send your hold requests to the email you were given. To get approved please visit our website www.texaschihuahuarescuecanada.org to fill in an application to adopt.
