Story
Meet Tracker — part Heeler, part goofball, part amateur detective, and 100% ready to find his people. When Tracker first arrived, he acted like someone had accidentally dropped him into the wrong movie. He was timid, shaky, and clearly unsure about this whole “meeting new humans” situation. But after some time to decompress, the real Tracker has started making an appearance — and spoiler alert: he’s pretty great. These days, Tracker happily walks up to staff members on his own for attention and pets, proving that underneath that nervous beginning was just a sweet young dog waiting for the world to feel a little safer. Watching his confidence grow has honestly been one of our favourite glow-ups. True to his name, Tracker is very serious about investigating every blade of grass, leaf, squirrel rumour, and mysterious sidewalk smell on walks. Sniffing is his passion. Is he solving crimes? Mapping secret treasure routes? Conducting important neighbourhood business? We may never know. He’s a medium-energy boy who enjoys getting out and exploring, and as a young Heeler cross, he’ll need both physical exercise and mental stimulation to keep his clever brain happy. Puzzle toys, adventures, training sessions, and sniff-heavy walks will all be right up his alley. During his dog assessment, Tracker was playful and polite with a much larger intact male dog, and we believe he could happily live with another playful canine companion if introductions are done properly. We also feel he could do well with dog-savvy children who understand that sometimes a young dog needs a little patience while building confidence. Now, fair warning: Tracker currently believes leash walking is a full upper-body workout for his humans. He can be strong on leash, but with obedience training and positive reinforcement, he should improve quickly. In fact, we strongly recommend enrolling him in training right away — not only to help polish his manners, but because smart dogs like Tracker absolutely thrive when given structure and learning opportunities. At the end of the day, Tracker is a sweet, sensitive young dog who just needed a little time for his personality to shine. Now that it has, he’s ready to find a home where he can continue building confidence, making friends, and living his very best adventure-dog life. Please complete an adoption application: 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. https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions *Please note: we only adopt within Ontario

💙🐾 MARCO: 100% Blue Heeler, 200% Heartthrob 🐾💙 📍Fostered in Southern Ontario Ladies and gentlemen, dogs and squirrels… meet MARCO! Marco is a 1-year-old purebred Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) weighing in at a perfect 25–30 lbs of handsome. He was born with a bilateral cleft lip, which basically means he looks extra unique and ridiculously cute. Don’t worry—he eats, drinks, plays, and steals hearts completely normally. The only special treatment he requires is a little extra tooth-brushing in that area. That’s it! ✨ Features include: ✔️ Softest cuddle buddy mode ✔️ Professional couch snuggler ✔️ Excellent passenger prince during car rides ✔️ Knows “sit,” “stay,” and “bedtime” ✔️ Crate-trained and sleeps like an angel ✔️ Dog-friendly and ready to make friends ✔️ Premium zoomies package included Marco can be a little shy when meeting new people or exploring new places. Think of him as an introvert who just needs a minute before becoming your new best friend. Once he trusts you, prepare for a lifetime supply of love, cuddles, and loyal companionship. 🐶 Other dogs? LOVE THEM. 🌳 Outdoors? OBSESSED. 🎾 Fetch? YES PLEASE. 🚪 Potty breaks? He’ll let you know by heading to the door like the smart boy he is. He may do a little nervous pee when meeting new people (honestly, some of us can relate), but he’s making great progress every day. A fenced yard would be Marco’s version of winning the lottery—a safe place for zoomies, fetch sessions, and important squirrel surveillance duties. 💛 Marco doesn’t know he’s different. He only knows that he wants someone to love, trust, and cuddle forever. If you’re looking for a dog who’s equal parts adorable, sweet, goofy, and loyal, Marco is ready to move into your heart (and probably your spot on the couch). Apply to adopt Marco today—you’ll wonder how you ever lived without that smile. 🩵🐾

Story
Hello! My name is Marie!I came into the shelter with my best bud, Donny. We enjoy each other`s company and are currently enjoying being housed together while we stay at GHS. While it`s not required that we are adopted together, if you have the means to take us both, we would certainly be thrilled! Since I can be timid about the world around me, and having a dog helps immensely with my confidence, my GHS friends are requiring that I have a dog friend in the home for this benefit. I am a very sweet girl who has the most lovely wiggle bum you ever did see. And, I enjoy swimming in water! What better quality in a dog is there than that!? I am also affectionate and will be sure to ask for pets! MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be okay, but no young children given my sensitive nature.OTHER DOGS: Required! A well-socialized dog will help with my confidence in the world.CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident & experienced with large dogs.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I’m sensitive and would do best with someone who has dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Yes, so I have a safe place to lounge outside, which is one of my favorite things to do! Rural without a fence may also be an option.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any home with a private yard or rural.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: 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! I’m excited to be selected as part of the Paisley Project and I’m looking for a foster home!

Story
Hi there, I’m Donny!I am a sweet boy who gets excited when seeing new people. I can be a bit nervous if people come on too strong but love when they are calm and gentle! I arrived as a stray found roaming in the country with my friend/relative, Marie. My past is unknown but my GHS humans wonder we`ve I`ve ever lived in a home before. I love to spend ALL day in the outdoor portion of my kennel and would probably stay there all night too, if they`d let me - they don`t, despite my numerous requests, in case you`re wondering. My other favorite place to be is in a pool of water. I love lounging in water and would sleep there if it was safe. While I was nervous about walking on leash and going through doorways, in just a few quick weeks, I`m now excelling at both! I`m treat motivated and love to bring my toys with me when I lounge outside. I am much more confident when Marie is around but have done well with all the dogs I`ve met so far. We would love to get adopted together but know that`s asking a lot so as long as you have a dog in your home who can help me continue my confidence building, that will be ok.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be okay, but no young children given my sensitive nature.OTHER DOGS: Required, if you aren`t able to adopt me and Marie together, I am looking for a home with a confident, well-socialized dog in the home to help with my confidence.CATS: Potentially, with cat confident & experienced with large dogs.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I’m sensitive and would do best with someone who has dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Yes, so I have a safe place to lounge outside, which is one of my favorite things to do!
