My story

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

Meet Rusty!



Breed: Doberman



Age: 6



Location: Calgary, AB



Personality: He is medium energy level and enjoys a few small or one big walk a day. Can pull on leash when too close to another dog or when he sees a scary neighborhood bunny. Super gentle and never jumps up even when excited. Will flop his whole body on your belly up for some tummy scratches 



Likes: Playing fetch and any kind of ball, he is great at not jumping or barking and loves to chase balls, loves peanut butter and carrots, yes that's right give him a big Carrot to crunch, also loves alllll the pets and wants to be near you at all times. Classic velcro dobie. 



Dislikes: Being left alone for long periods and can be midly frustrated on leash when seeing other dogs as he wants to play



Ideal Home: Preferably someone who works from home and not gone long periods of time as he can be anxious when away from family. 



‍‍‍ Family: loves all people including kids, has a prey drive so best with larger dogs only in home and no cats



Health: no medical concerns. He was originally seized for neglect and was emaciated when rescued, but is now at a healthy weight.



Rusty has been neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. All adopters must agree not to use any punitive training methods including, but not limited to, leash corrections; pinning; alpha rolls, etc.

More about this rescue

Adopt-a-Dobe is a not-for-profit rescue society located near Edmonton, Alberta. Our purpose is to rehabilitate and rehome Dobermans in need throughout Western Canada (BC, Alberta, and Saskatchewan).

We support the ethical breeding of purebred dogs and will always work to reunite displaced dogs with their breeder if possible.

We advocate for rewards-based training methods and believe that using humane, effective, evidence-based behavior modification is an integral part of promoting animal welfare and responsible pet ownership.
