My story

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

Coal / Male / Approx 11 months / 25 lbs / Beagle Cross / Good with Dogs / Untested with Kids / Untested with Cats / From Tennessee / Fostered in Toronto

Meet Coal! Coal's foster describes him as affectionate, playful, sweet, and energetic

He came to us after he was surrendered with his siblings to a shelter, and then pulled by our partner rescue in Tennessee.

Despite having a bit of a rough start, Coal is a happy go lucky guy. He loves to play, and go for walks, but also loves napping and is always up for a good cuddle.

He is friendly and warm with all people and dogs, and loves making new friends. Sometimes he gets a little too excited and jumps up to give a lick, but he’s still a puppy and working on his manners. Coal has not yet been tested with children but his foster believes he would do very well with dog savvy kids.

As Coal’s mom was a Beagle-he loves to follow his nose. He’s a great walker and currently gets 3/30 minute walks per day. He pulls a bit when he gets excited, but it’s mostly when he wants to say hi to someone. This is something he is working on. He’s a very good boy and has already gotten the hang of the commands “no”, and “stay”. In addition to walks, this clever boy thrives with lots of enrichment activities like lick mats, puzzles, and training. He is aaaalmost there with potty training, and will require some support when he moves into his forever home.

Coal has been left alone for up to 4 hours and does very well. When his fosters leave the house, they always make sure to walk him first and provide toys or puzzles so he settles well in the crate. When not crated, he lays down and waits for his fosters at the front door.

At night time, Coal sleeps in a crate where he can see his people. As long as he is next to them, he relaxes and sleeps comfortably.

Coal also does very well in the car and would make a good road trip buddy!

Prior to coming into care, Coal tested positive for Anaplasma which is a tick-borne infection and is not contagious. A CBC was performed to see if there is an active infection. Coal 's CBC came back indicating that there is no active infection however it is recommended that Anaplasma positive dogs get an annual blood test to monitor and that pre-op blood work including a CBC test and platelet count be performed before any surgeries or dental extractions.

Additional adoption info

To adopt one of our dogs, please fill out an application at https://www.fetchandreleash.ca/adoption-info#adoption-form. Although we do our best to reply to all inquiries within 72 hours, please remember we are a volunteer-run organization. We appreciate your patience.

If we think your application has potential to be a good fit, a Fetch + Releash volunteer will contact you to set up a time to speak over the phone and conduct the home visit. In addition to the phone interview and home visit, we also require personal, veterinarian, and landlord reference if applicable.

After the phone interview, home visit & reference check, you will then be granted a private meet and greet with the dog.

After the meet and greet, the adoption committee will then review your completed application and make a final decision.

More about this rescue

Established in 2016, Fetch + Releash is a volunteer run dog rescue dedicated to saving dogs in need. Our foster dogs come from a variety of different backgrounds such as shelters, strays and surrendered pets, both locally and abroad. Through our network of volunteers, foster homes, trainers and veterinarians, we strive to give every dog the loving forever family they deserve. As a foster-based rescue, our dogs live in private homes across the Greater Toronto Area where they receive the love and attention they need to ready them for adoption.

A dog is a lifetime commitment and not to be discarded due to health, lifestyle change or inconvenience. Some of the top reasons dogs end up in shelters are lack of training, lifestyle changes (i.e. new baby, marriage), relocation, cost of dog ownership, not enough time for pet etc. Our goal is to ensure our adoptive families are well versed in the realities of dog ownership and ready to make a lifetime commitment.
