Story
Say hello to Chase, a 1.5-year-old Shepherd/Kelpie mix who wandered in as a stray and is now ready to chase his way straight into your heart. As you might guess from his working-breed roots, Chase is smart, athletic, and full of potential—the kind of dog who’s happiest when life includes movement, learning, and a little purpose. Chase has lots of energy and will do best with daily physical exercise and mental enrichment. Long walks, hikes, training sessions, puzzle toys, or fun dog sports would all be right up his alley. He already knows “sit” and is eager to learn more, making obedience training a fantastic next step—not just for manners, but also to help build his confidence and social skills. When meeting new people, Chase shows a thoughtful, sensitive side. He did great with women, and while he was a bit unsure around some men at first, he warmed up quickly and happily joined them for short walks. With continued positive, rewarding experiences, especially around new people, Chase is expected to gain even more confidence and blossom into an even more well-rounded companion. Chase also did very well meeting our test dog and would likely enjoy having a canine friend, as long as introductions are done slowly and thoughtfully to set everyone up for success. This intelligent, active young dog will thrive with an engaged, patient family who’s excited to invest time in training, structure, and confidence building. In return, you’ll get a loyal, fun-loving companion who’s ready to grow alongside you. If you’re looking for a dog who will keep you moving, make you proud, and form a deep bond through training and shared adventures, Chase might just be your perfect match. Please complete an adoption application: https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions Chase has an appointment to be neutered on February 12th. He will be ready to go to his forever home after 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

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Marco is a purebred, Australian cattle dog a.k.a. blue heeler. He was born with a bilateral cleft lip. This birth defect does not stop him from doing anything. A normal dog would do. He eats just like a normal dog would eat. You just have to brush his teeth a little more often in that area to get the food out and check for grass or sticks that may get stuck in there. Please note this is not the same thing as a cleft palette. This is just a cleft lip and he can eat any type of food completely fine. Marco may look a bit different but he is a gorgeous boy. Marco is currently 5-8 months old 17 pounds. Male Heelers are typically 40-50 pounds fully grown. He is very timid and shy and under socialized but a gentle, nervous boy who has a huge heart and a beautiful soul. He does nervous pee so we are working on this and I do not think this will be forever I think once he gain some confidence, he will be perfectly fine. He gets very nervous with new people, dogs, and places. He needs a committed adopter willing to socialize him, be patient, loving , kind, and start on some basic puppy 101 training when he is ready. He is a nervous nelly but has the absolute sweetest soul. Please give him a chance !!
