Name: Buster
Sex: Male Breed: Chesapeake Retriever X Age: 9 years (approx in 2021) Energy level: medium Good with Kids?: No! Good with Cats?: No! Good with Dogs?: No I am reactive with other dogs & need to be the only dog in a home. Rescue Story: Owner Surrender Hi there! The name is Buster! I'm a 8-year old, 100 lb Chesapeake Retriever looking to find my forever family. I was previously an acreage dog but now I'm a city slicker that enjoys walks around the neighbour, playing fetch and destroying all the stuffies available. I didn't get walked very much by my previous family but I am good on leash and know how to stay, sit and heel. Because I didn't get much interaction with other dogs growing up I want to ignore them on walks and don't go out of my way to say hi. My foster family has muzzle trained me so that if a dog unexpectedly approaches me on a walk everyone is safe. I currently live in a town house with no backyard, but because I am on a consistent schedule I don't have accidents in the house and gladly wait for my foster parents to return from this thing called "work." Although I'm a big guy I am a HUGE cuddle bug and will gladly take up 75% of the bed and allow you to sleep around me. The retriever instinct in me is strong - so if you are relaxing on the couch I will be bringing you offerings of stuffed toys begging for you to 'Netflix and Fetch' with me. If I sound like the perfect guy for you please don't hesitate to ask about me! ** Training: Enrollment with a force free trainer will be mandatory with my adoption due to my reactivity.** **Medical: I have slight arthritis starting and will require supplements in the future. I also need to stay on the same diet of Low Fat Gastrointestinal** Apply to Adopt me Today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |
Kallie-Accepting Applications

Name: Kallie
Gender: Female Age: 13 years (approx in 2021) Breed: Husky X Size: Large Energy level: Low Rescue story: Owner surrender Good with Kids?: Yes! Good with Dogs?: No, I would prefer to be the only dog in the home Good with Cats?: Unknown Hello I'm Kallie! I'm a senior husky mix. I came into care as my owner passed away. I had some health concerns and my mobility wasn’t very good. I have had a couple mammary masses removed, I’ve been spayed, microchipped, I have some ear/skin issues that seem to just keep coming back. I have made wonderful progress though and have had lots of care to get me where I am today. I do have some ongoing health issues that will need to have continued treatment. Now let’s talk about what a wonderful girl I am. I love my people and grow quite attached to them. I do have some separation anxiety and am on medication for it. I do best with someone who is at home most of the time as I do not like to be left alone and can get very stressed. I love to play ball and tug of war with anyone willing and will toss the ball to me for more playtime! I am house trained and I do not get into any trouble being left out loose. I’m not a fan of barriers and have never been crated so that won't work for me. But like I said I’m so good left out that it’s not something I need. I love going for short walks and smelling everything. I can’t do long walks as I get very sore and stiff. I can be reactive with other dogs on leash on my walks, but I’m working on it. My favourite thing to do is to hang out on the couch with my people and just chill. I have been losing some weight for my health for mobility/arthritis issues. I am good with everyone I have met, but those cats I am just too interested in chasing after. I am great with kids who are respectful of me and will play and snuggle with them too. Oh and did I mention I am a very smart girl. I learnt commands so fast, especially for treats! My hearing isn’t what it used to be but as long as I see you, you have my attention. So over all I’m just a pretty happy, chill and very sweet senior gal wanting my retirement home who will love me and make sure my medical needs are continued to be taken care of. I will be your best friend so save a spot for me on the couch, I’m quite the couch hog! **Medical: 1) I will require regular ear cleanings and will have possible future ear infections that will require a veterinary visit and medications to treat. 2) Monitor my fatty lumps. Under my left armpit. 3) I am on Fluoxetine once daily for my separation anxiety. 4) I will have possible future mammary lumps. 5) Monitoring my mobility and hips for arthritis & providing joint supplements & keeping my walks short.** **Behavioral: I do have some reactivity on leash with other dogs & I have separation anxiety & am on meds for that. I will require enrollment with a force free trainer as well** Due to my age & medical needs my adoption fee will be reduced to $300 if you would like to donate to my medical needs please e-transfer to amanda@pawsinneedrescue.com!

halo-accepting Applications

Name: Halo
Sex: Female Breed: Pibble X Age: 9 months (approx in April 2021) Energy level: HIGH Size: Medium (45-50lbs) Rescue Story: Owner Surrender Good with Kids? Yes, but may get excited. Good with cats? Yes so far. No real experience. Good with dogs? Yes, love to have a playmate, especially large ones that can run fast like me! Hello, I am Halo. I came into care from my owners who didn’t have the required time to work with me. I am fully house trained and will go to the door to let you know when I need out. I am kennel trained. I do enjoy laying in my kennel for naps when the door is left open. I don’t enjoy being in a closed kennel when my human friends are home. Left for a few hours while you are out shopping or visiting is fine. If left loose in the house while you are out I will most likely become destructive. I do have separation anxiety which may be severe at times. I am working on this and I am learning to be outside by myself. I am happy to be outside with a furry playmate though. I am currently on daily medications for my anxiety and it is helping me to focus and relax. I love food and treats, especially fresh veggies. On that note - I may tend to counter surf if any food items are left within reach. While I may hide or shy away from you when I see the harness come out, I really do enjoy my walks. I love to meet new people and furry friends while out for my daily walk. If it is just you and I out walking I am very good on the leash. I may pull for the lead if others join us. I love to play fetch with my human friends. Spending time outside with you is a real treat. A real beef bone is the BEST enjoyment for me, but I also enjoy playing with my chew toys! I truly am a real sweetheart .I can get excited at times but I usually calm down fairly quickly, especially if a belly rub is involved. I love to cuddle with you when you are watching tv, or just enjoy being in the room with you. If you are home lots, can commit to my command training and have energy to burn off with me, we will get along just fine * Training clause. Force free training enrollment will be mandatory due to my lack of commands* *Medical - I am on a daily dose of Clonidine and Fluoxetine to help with my anxiety levels* Apply for me today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |
titan-HOLD on applications
|
Name: Titan
Gender: Male DOB: Feb 2018 (approx) Breed: Dane Mastiff X Size: Very large Rescue Story: Owner surrender Good with cats: Unknown Good with Dogs: Yes Good with kids/people: social but timid, will need slow introductions. We have learnt so much about this gentle giant! He fully believes he is a lap dog, he is protective of his people and loves to play! Sometimes he forgets his size around little ones, but means no harm at all. He walks great on leash and likes to snuggle. Titan is very chill and really a low energy dog, he is happy to be where his people are. Titan plays very well with other dogs, enjoys daycare and has no aggression whatsoever. He can be nervous of groups of people, and therefore doesn't ideally want to be at the dog park, rather play in the yard with his humans. Due to his size, a home to comfortably fit him (his drool and stinky toots included) is necessary as he is not an outdoor dog, though he does enjoy outdoor play. He is not suitable for a farm dog. **Enrollment in force free training will be mandatory as an agreement in his adoption. We also want to ensure he has pet insurance to protect him and you, as the likelihood of future medical needs will be costly.** |

Maya and Luna - Available for adoption
|
Name: Maya and Luna (bonded pair)
Gender: female DOB: Maya 2011 and Luna 2013 (approx) Breed: Maya is a pom X and Luna is a Maltese X Rescue Story: Owner surrender Good with cats: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with kids: yes with proper introductions My name is Maya and I am the brownish white fluff in the lower part of the picture. I am the resident Floor Queen of my foster parents home. What that means is that when I come into a room I will sit myself down and you will have to walk over me as I don’t move. I mostly sit by myself or snuggle with my sister Luna and will only occasionally come to you for snuggles, if I so deem you are worthy. Although if you pick me up, I will not refuse snuggles because I understand how great it is to get a snuggle from me. My sister Luna is the white one in the picture. She takes a while to warm up to people, but once she does, she is a snuggle monster. She will seek out snuggles at all times of the day and night. She has a lot of energy and will run around the house quite a bit. We both love going for walks, but sometimes the walks will be a bit much for me and you may need to carry me home. Luna is still learning how to walk in a relaxed manner, and you may need help to calm her. Luna becomes very attached to her humans, and can be defensive if she misreads the situation from her human. She is always on the look out for rabbits and would go chasing them down if there wasn't that inconvenient thing they call a leash. I will also mention that we do rabbit patrol. This is where we check constantly if a rabbit is in our human’s yard by looking out the window. If we find them, we will watch them carefully and patiently and make sure our human know they are there. We also look out for people walking by and we will sometimes bark at them. Just so you know, I am bonded with my sister Luna so we come together. Have a good day, and may my snuggle be upon you. *We are best suited for a home with a yard so Luna can burn some of that energy. Dog parks are not for us, and although we love a good walk, it can be a bit much if it is our only form of exercise. ** Training: Enrolment with a force free trainer will be mandatory with adoption due to Luna’s high energy.** Apply to adopt today |
