My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Woah! Where am I?! Am I really here looking to find my forever family?! It was just last month that they were telling me I only had a few hours left before they put me to sleep, and now I'm ready to find my own family?! Wow! Things sure can change quickly around here!

My name is Winter and you've probably seen my face around here a few times recently! I'm the extra special boy who spent 10 days in board and train at Doggy Discovery Zone and oh my gosh did I ever have fun! And I learned so many new things! Some of those things are:

Implied sit
Off leash field recall
Down
Stay
Leave it
Leash walking
Potty training
How to get bathed without being scared
Kenneling willingly
Kenneling overnight without crying
Putting my harness on nicely and waiting to go for my walk
Jogging with my human off leash within 30'
Playing nice with other dogs
Not jumping
And more!!

I'm about 1 year old with what foster mom says are the most beautiful blue eyes, and I'm some sort of husky mix. I have a beautiful white coat that I love to get extra dirty (that's why I had to learn how to take baths!). I'm about 47 pounds and I think I'm done growing, but I could surprise you with a few more pounds now that I'm getting proper meals and exercise!

I like to chew (I'm still a baby!) so during my training I learned lots of good redirection, so if you give me my designated chew toys, I'll move on to those. But I should definitely be crated when you're leaving me alone so that I don't eat anything not meant for dogs!

I used to bounce around a lot and knock kids down, but after my training, I've returned to a foster home with small children and all has gone well! I live with other big dogs with no issues, and have even met small dogs. There are lots of cats here and I'm usually pretty good with them, but sometimes I'll chase them up the stairs if they seem like they want to play.

At the end of the day, I really just want somebody to play with me and somebody to cuddle up on the couch with. Somebody to love me. I'm ready to start the next chapter of my life!

✳️An adoption fee of seven hundred applies to Winter. He is neutered, dewormed, up to date on vaccines, and as a bonus comes with an easy walk harness courtesy of Doggy Discovery Zone, as well as a one on one lesson with Mika at DDZ who trained Winter for 10 days, to help you get to know each other!

More about this rescue

Baladi & Sled Dog Rescue of Ontario is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, providing veterinary care, and finding loving homes for dogs from the dog sledding industry.

We also extend our reach locally by rescuing stray cats and dogs from Aboriginal communities that we partner with. Additionally, our efforts expand globally as we started this rescue by saving Baladi cats and dogs from the streets of Egypt, but now that it is banned we continue helping Baladi's by supporting their placement in Egyptian shelters.
