My story

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

💙Available for adoption💙

Mister Ole blue eyes himself, Sinatra!

This boy is just such a loving guy, not only is he super playful and sweet but he's a velcro dog too! Loves to be his person and will follow you everywhere. Once he trusts you, which you will have to work for, but once he does, man he opens up and will do anything you ask of him. Super obedient and super respectful dog.

To the SOB who dumped him at the Burlington Costco, shame on you. Karma will come for you, I promise! You didn't deserve his loyalty and love. He didn't lose out, you lost out!

Name: Sinatra aka Sinny, Ole blue
Location of dog: Simcoe, Norfolk County
Breed: Mixed breed
Weight: approx 65lbs
Gender: Male
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Age: Approx 18 mts to 2 years old
Energy Level: Medium
Medical (shots etc): UTD
Microchipped: Yes
Good with dogs: Yes when introductions are done properly. Seems to like females more. Has barrier aggression in his kennel tho with all dogs. Much better outside his kennel. If going to a home with another dog, must understand it can't be instant friendship. This will take time. Meaning separation for the first little bit with slow intro and slow interactions. If you don't have the patience to do this, then please don't apply if you have another dog in the home.
Good with cats: unsure not tested
Good with kids: tested with kids 10 plus. I don't see any aggression towards younger kids in him, but would feel better knowing he's not around kids under 10. Too many people live young kids unsupervised with dogs.
Good with strangers: barks at first but tail Wagging and proper intro he's all over you!
Guarding Issues: No
House Trained: Yes but will have accidents in his kennel now and then.
Crate Trained: unsure, only has been in a kennel. Could be trained to use a crate tho.
Destructive: No, only his stuffies, he needs to get that squeaker lol
Leash skills: good, pulls a bit when excited or wants to play with another dog, but easily corrected.
Okay with manipulations: yes, loves treats and aims to people please
Known commands: sit, stay, enough (when he barks). If someone put time into learning new commands, he would excel for sure!
Behaviour Issues: has some anxiety. Mostly when alone or away from his people. Manageable if you are patient and willing to work through it. He gets calming treats at night to help him.
Medical issues: None
Other Observations: Sinatra, is a great dog with amazing potential. I wouldn't suggest a beginner dog owner, as he needs someone with patience and time to earn his trust and help him adjust to a new environment and home. He does have anxiety but with the right person, completely manageable. Will need an active family, he needs exercise, stimulation and boundaries. Will need some decompression time, as he went from a shelter to a kennel here. A family who will not rush him through decompression and a family who will stay committed to him, is exactly what this boy deserves.
Sinatra will make an amazing family dog and will be loyal and love his people unconditionally. His blues eyes just melt your soul and you can see in his eyes, just how sweet he truly is.
We don't know he's past, but I can tell it wasn't a good one. He does flinch at some movements at times, and is unsure of new situations but is always willing to face them with his person.
I promise you, you give this handsome guy a chance and really invest yourself into him, he will be a great dog and a great best friend!🩵

Reason for Surrender or transfer: local shelter transfer. Was found as a stray in the Burlington costco parking lot.

More about this rescue

Strong and powerful breeds are some of the most misunderstood, feared and mistreated breeds in North America. As well as dominant and so called aggressive breeds. Thousands in our very own home of Ontario alone are euthanized, seized, dumped and surrendered. And at FABR we want to change that starting today, with you!

We strive to rescue power breed types, bully types, large and extra large dogs, the ones shelters and some rescues would dare take in. We rehabilitate,train, care for them and find them their forever homes. And we do travel out of province to bring them to safe provinces that do not hold a BSL ban, when needed. Every dog deserves a chance at life. A chance to be loved and have a family. Here at FABR we make that happen.

With fosters, volunteers and help from the community, we help and specialize in providing dogs with a safe place to be. A place for them to be the best they can be without judgment.

Once we take in a dog, our team starts assessments and planning what the dog needs are base on the dogs behaviors, personality and history (if we are giving any info of course). From there our team works with each dog individually to help them become ready to find their forever homes. We work hard to ensure our dogs have all the fundamentals needed in life and behavior wise to be successful in their new homes. With daily exercise, training, socialization and lots of play time.
Through all of our endeavors we hope to display the conviction behind our beliefs.
