My story

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

Meet Winston, a loving Boxer mix with a heart as big as his soulful eyes. Winston’s journey hasn’t been easy—he was found abandoned and tied up in Quebec, but even after all he’s been through, he’s ready to fill your life with so much joy, snuggles and plenty of fetch.

This sweet boy recently underwent surgery to repair a bilateral perineal hernia and had few fractured teeth extracted. He’s now on the road to recovery and focused on starting the next chapter of his life with a family who will show him the love and security he’s always deserved.

Winston has a way of stealing hearts. Everyone who meets him falls in love with his kind nature and cuddly personality. He’s happiest when he’s close to his people or chasing a tennis ball. If fetch were an Olympic sport, Winston would be a gold medalist!

Winston does experience some separation anxiety, so he’d thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time. He’s currently on a training plan to help him feel more secure when left alone, and with patience and consistency, his confidence is expected to grow.

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and fun-loving companion who’s overcome the odds and is ready to bring endless love (and maybe a slobbery tennis ball or two) into your life, Winston might just be your perfect match.

Are you ready to give Winston the happy ending he’s been waiting for?
