Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Oakley is the epitome of what a ‘Bully mix’ is when well loved; he’s always happy, loves every animal he meets and makes you laugh with his silly antics! This 10-month-old lovable goof doesn’t have a mean bone in his body, despite being very under socialised in his younger years. Coming from a puppy mill and then being adopted on a whim, made it so that Oakley didn’t get to meet many people or dogs in the beginning and had never been on leash. He’s very adaptable and with love, positive reinforcement and cookies, he will become the perfect boy! He will need to be worked on with leash training, he’s wonderful with all dogs (a bit too curious with cats, but listens when you call his name). He is a bit nervous around humans at first.
He is an active boy; he spends most of his days playing in the yard with toys (loves playing with the hanging rope toy by himself) and playing with his doggy friends! He would love to have one or more dog siblings to play with, but if not, he will need to have his energy spent with other exercise. He is still a puppy and there will be lots of firsts with him, we are looking for a patient family who appreciates this boy. He is super affectionate & and total cuddle monster. He is silly, loving and very special; he’s looking for his family that sees the unlimited potential Oakley has!
Oakley is vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and sterilized and will come with her medical booklet.
Sometimes a dog takes a little more time to open up, you may see them showing more and more of their personality over the course of the first few days, weeks or even months! We don’t know all that they’ve been through before they were rescued, but they are so forgiving and full of love and it’s worth every tough moment in the end. Developing a trusting relationship with your rescue dog is the most important thing. Stability, patience, positive reinforcement and love are the most important things!
Oakley est le typique ‘Bully mix’ qui a seulement connu l’amour. Il est toujours heureux, aime tous les animaux qu'il rencontre et vous fait rire avec ses agissements cocasses. Il est un chien adorable de 10 mois qui a aucune méchanceté en lui. Il ait été très sous-socialisé dans sa jeunesse, vient d'une usine à chiots, puis adopté sur un coup de tête, donc Oakley n'a pas rencontré beaucoup de gens ou de chiens durant ses premier 8 mois et n'a jamais été tenu en laisse, mais il est très adaptable et avec de l'amour, du renforcement positif et des gâteries, il deviendra le garçon parfait. Il faudra le travailler avec un dressage en laisse, il est merveilleux avec tous les chiens (un peu trop curieux avec les chats mais écoute quand ont dit son prénom). Il est un peu nerveux avec les humains au début.
C'est un garçon actif; il passe la plupart de ses journées à jouer dans la cour avec des jouets (il adore jouer seul avec le jouet en corde suspendu) et à jouer avec ses amis chiens. Il adorerait avoir un ou plusieurs frères et sœurs chiens avec qui jouer, mais sinon, il devra dépenser son énergie avec de l’exercice. Étant encore un chiot et il y aura plein de premières avec lui, nous recherchons une famille patiente qui appréciera ce beau garçon. Il est super affectueux, très colleur, drôle, aimant et très spécial. Il recherche sa famille qui vera le potentiel illimité en lui.
Oakley est vacciné, micro-pucé, vermifugé et stérilisé et viendra avec son livret médical.
Parfois un chien met un peu plus de temps à s'ouvrir, vous le verrez peut-être démontrer de plus en plus sa personnalité au cour des premiers jours, semaines et mois. Nous ne savons pas tout ce qu’ils ont vécu avant d’êtres secourus, mais ils sont tellement indulgents et pleins d’amour et chaque moment difficile en vaut finalement l’effort. Développer une relation de confiance avec votre chien de sauvetage est la chose la plus importante. La stabilité, la patience, le renforcement positif et l’amour sont les choses les plus importantes.

We do regular follow ups and virtual home visits before the family meet the dog. :)

Go meet their pets
We are presently foster based so the meetings will take place where the dogs are being kept and that way the potential family can also discuss the good and bad habits of that dog to see if it's the right fit. The families need to be willing to work on a behaviour if it needs work and to provide the appropriate time and patience for the dog to accllimate to it's new home!

More about this rescue
We are a small shelter with lots of experience with dogs and rescuing. I worked for a larger shelter in the past but didn't always appreciate the way things were handled so I decided to branch out in a smaller scale but with all of the wonderful contacts and information that I've learned in the past decade + of doing rescue! Dogs are my passion and I would love to place as many as possible in their loving, furever homes!
