My story

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

Meet Dini, an energetic 11 month old Mastiff/Boxer mix, with a heart brimming full of love and enthusiasm for life! A behaviour counselling session with our Adoption Staff is necessary before adopting her.

Dini was surrendered to us after her leg healed improperly after breaking it and needed to be amputated. She is now all healed up and ready to go, go, go!

Despite having one leg less than her other doggy cohorts, she still manages to keep up with the best of us and loves chasing after toys and balls! She does however, tire quicker than other dogs her age and would love having a comfy couch and a loving lap to relax in after.

This girl will need a confident, experienced owner who is dedicated to further training, particularly in the areas of socialization and reactivity in order to improve her interactions with other animals. Because she has these issues, a household with small children and other pets is not recommended.

Dini has bilateral ectropion, which is common for her breed, so her eyes will often look red, as they will trap more environmental contaminants. She may require saline rinses and/or lubricating eye drops to keep her eyes healthy and prevent conjunctivitis.

Dini's ideal home would be one that has a backyard in a more rural setting where she would be showered with all of the attention and affection she so desperately desires. A calm, patient and committed human that is capable of handling a behaviorally complex puppy.

If you're looking for a loving companion who will fill your life with joy, Dini is ready to bring her warmth and affection into your home. Are you ready to give Dini the loving home she deserves?
