Name: Buster
Sex: Male Breed: Chesapeake Retriever X Age: 6 years Energy level: medium Kids: No Cats: No Dogs No Rescue Story: Owner Surrender Hi there! The name is Buster! I'm a 6-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! ** Enrollment with a force free trainer will be mandatory with my adoption! I also have slight arthritis starting and will require supplements in the future. I also need to stay on the same diet** Apply to Adopt me Today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |

The lady that brought me to the pound said I had a few litters of puppies and was not being taken care of. I am a medium energy girl who is good with all the dogs I have met so far. I don't care for dogs that are up in my face and hyper, that's rude man. I am happy to be the only dog or co-exist with dogs, maybe one day I will learn to play. I am such a good girl though! I am house trained, kennel trained and know sit and lay down. I am also really good on a leash! I mostly love to play with balls! Omg any kind of ball is good, I could play fetch all day! Even by myself! I love to get pets and love to cuddle! My foster mom says my tail is always wagging cause I'm a happy girl but watch your wine on the table! 😐. I do like to protect my kennel a bit but I'm good with sharing everything else. I am a quiet girl but bark if I hear noises sometimes or if I'm left too long and have to use the bathroom during the day. My bark is a low, raspy one though.

Hi! My name is Salter -
My mom, Sandy, had 12 puppies, but only 10 of us survived. I was adopted and then returned because my new owners felt like they could not handle me.

I am house trained and kennel trained but am so big I need a large x pen. I am good on car rides, but can drool as the motion makes me sick. I am currently on medication for my anxiety issues.

My name is Treena and I am a hip old lady looking for a retirement home. If you are home most of the time and are looking for someone to hang out with, I'm your gal. I enjoy long naps and the occasional treats. I am fully house trained and just an awesome dog (my foster leaves pee pads out for me at night because sometimes I can't make it until the morning). I am so quiet and barely bark, unless I am left by myself, so apartment living would not be for me. Because of my age it is taking me a bit of time to warm up to people but I love my foster mom and follow her everywhere. Hope to meet you soon!!! **Medical: I have a mouth of bad teeth but due to my heart murmur and age I cannot be put under at this time as it would be a risk to my health, there may be dental issues down the road with me. I only really like eating wet food with a bit of kibble mixed and need to put on a bit of weight still but need to be kept on a wet diet. I am also on medication for my anxiety** Apply to adopt a senior today! http://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |

Name: Diddy Kong
Gender: Male Breed: Min Pin X Age: 2 years old (DOB Nov 16, 2016) Size: Small Rescue Story: Born into care Dogs: Yes but I can be choosy with my doggo friends, so the right fit is key Kids: Yes but only older kids only as I can be nippy Cats: Yes! Hello I'm Diddy Kong aka Diddy. Many of you might remember me and my siblings who arrived about two years ago into Paws Animal Rescue. I came back into care because I was quite anxious, nervous, and was having some issues with the kids that my pawrents had coming/going in their home. I know its hard to believe that such a cute thing like me could not want to be cuddled by kids, but fast movements and loud noises kinda scare me. Kids also don't like it because I mouth during play, but hey its what I did with my siblings when we were little! At my foster home we play fetch, and play with other toys! I really love toys. Between toys and several walks a day I am staying very entertained and haven't displayed any destructive behaviour around the house. I’ll let you know when someone is at the door with a bork, but other than that I’m not a big fan of being loud. I love when my foster parents are home and when they leave I feel a little bit anxious but I'm getting braver. I sleep all night long in my crate and it makes me feel safe. I've only had one accident in the house since being here, I'm very good at doing my business outside. I LOVE snuggling; when you are on the couch, I really want to be right beside you - luckily I don't shed too much so my foster mom said ok I can snuggle on the couch. I know 'sit' and 'touch' and I am working everyday on 'lay down' and 'stay', I like learning and would love your help to keep going. I do like other dogs but not every dog so the right fit is a key for me as I learn to share my space and toys. I have been around cats/kittens too and don't mind them. Older kids for me only please! So if you have space in your home, are willing to commit to further training, I'd love to meet you ! ** ENROLLMENT WITH A FORCE-FREE TRAINER WILL BE PART OF MY ADOPTION CONTRACT ** Interested in adopting me?

Older kids only for me as I have a bite history Good with Cats?: Yes but I take awhile to warm up to them and can chase them at first Good with Dogs?: Yes I love other dogs Hi there! My name is Benjamin and I am a happy older fellow looking for home with someone who ideally doesn’t work full days. I am house trained, but my bladder is too small for long days. Don’t let that scare though because I am pee pad trained. I LOVE food (I am currently on a diet to lose a little bit of weight) and I am very excited to eat at meal times. I am learning that I am not supposed to chase the cat, and I am making progress but the cat just has to learn to stop sneaking up on me. LOL. I enjoy walks, I am choosy about toys and my favourite thing to do is lay in the warm rays of the sunshine At first, I am a little leery of new people and new situations, but quickly realize I do not need to worry. I love my foster mom and follow her everywhere. My foster dad is okay, but when my foster mom is home, I kinda forget about him (sorry foster dad). I must say that I think I am just an awesome dog. I am quiet and barely bark. I love going for walks and playing with other dogs. **Force free training enrollment will be part of my adoption clause as I have a bite history and need to work on building confidence** Apply to adopt me today! https://www.pawsinneedanimalrescue.com/apply-to-adopt-a-dog.html |

Good with cats: Untested Good with kids: Older kids only as I can be nippy and uneasy Good with dogs: I will need another dog in the home who is calm and balanced for me please. Hey guys, its me Jacquie. After spending more time with my foster mom, she has gotten to know me better. I am super smart and know how to sit, shake, and lay down. I know to ring the bells with my nose on my foster mom’s back door when I want to go outside, which is a lot because I love it out there. I love going for walks, and I am pretty good on a leash. I also LOVE going to the vet! I get so excited when we get out of the car and I wiggle my butt and greet everyone. I jump right on the scale, because I know they will give me TREATS! I am very food motivated. I am anxious when I first meet people. I warm up to women quickly, but men are a little scary. With some treats and patience, I usually come around. The vet says I am dealing with some anxiety. They have me on a medication for this that has helped a lot. I have stopped hiding all the time. I am crate trained, but I do not like it that much. I am quite noisy when I am in there, but I will quiet down eventually. I prefer to sleep in the bed with you, but I will settle down and sleep in my crate if it is in the room with you. I love my foster sisters, but I can be dog selective with new dogs. I forget that if I sniff them, it is only fair that they get to sniff me. I like chewing on stuffies and chasing after balls. I don’t quite bring them back to you though. I get so excited when my foster mom comes home from work, that after I have been outside, I just want to climb on top of her. I am house-trained, but I was having a few issues. My foster mom took me to the vet and it turned out I had a UTI caused by crystals in my urine. To prevent this from coming back, I will need to be on special food for the rest of my life. I hope I find my furr-ever family soon! **Medical: I am on anti-anxiety medication and I have a urinary kibble diet** **Training:I will require force free training enrollment with my adoption due to my anxiety and behaviors** Interested in adopting me?

Rescue Story: Owner Surrender Hi there, I’m Watson— but my friends call me Sunny. I like hanging out in a grade four classroom, spending my time with little people. I know to go outside when I need to. But, my foster mom is also diligent about taking me out shortly after I eat, and watching for sniffs when I let her know that I need to go. I am very cuddly, and I love snuggles with the cat. I also live with a big dog, and have lots of friends that are smaller than I am. I would do well with a friend. I like soft textures and you can find me hiding in a blanket or on my big bed! I have puppy teeth still, so chew toys are a must! I enjoy walks, and I’m still getting used to the leash on the sidewalk. I love to run and visit with friends, but I also tire out quick and love to sleep in my bed. It’s tough to say how big I’m going to grow up to be. Right now I think I’m smaller than I really am. I like sitting in laps and on feet, especially while my foster mom is trying to cook in the kitchen. I know how to sit and lay down. Once my stitches are healed, I’m sure I’ll be rolling over too!
