My story

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

*This dog is scheduled to arrive in Grimsby, Ontario on Saturday, January 18, 2025*Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website.

Zelda is a one-year-old bundle of joy, weighing around 20 pounds and packed with personality. This affectionate and playful girl has loved to make friends with everyone she meets, greeting you with a wagging tail, kisses, and sometimes even a little belly flop for extra attention!

Zelda is a social butterfly with other dogs, especially smaller ones who love to chase and run as much as she does. Her favourite activities include playful wrestling matches, zooming around the yard, and snuggling up for cozy lap time when playtime is over. In her foster home, she gets along fabulously with multiple dogs and thrives in a pack setting.

While Zelda hasnt been exposed to cats or young children, her gentle and friendly demeanor suggests shed do well with kids. However, she has been known to jump up with excitement and she might accidentally knock small kids over in her enthusiasm.

Zelda is crate-trained, almost perfectly house-trained, and is working on perfecting her leash-walking skills. Shes eager to learn and will thrive with a family thats ready to provide guidance and plenty of love.

Her ideal home? A family with a yard for her zoomies, lots of attention to give, andbest of allanother dog (or several) to be her playmate. Zelda is a fun-loving pup who will bring endless joy, snuggles, and laughter to her forever home.

If youre ready to spoil Zelda and make her part of your family, shes ready to fill your days with love and wagging tails!

Additional adoption info

R.E.B.E.L Dog Rescue is looking for committed adopters, ready to bring a rescue dog into their life. In order to ensure that we find the best homes for our dogs, adoption applicants must go through an adoption approval process. We receive a number of applications for each dog and only one will be chosen as the successful candidate. Candidates are selected based on the dog's needs. Not being selected for the dog that you applied for does not disqualify you from adopting from us in the future.

Go meet their pets

We do our very best to place our dogs into adoptive homes before they arrive into Canada. This ensures that they have a safe and loving place to go after their long journey up North. All dogs adopted through R.E.B.E.L Dog Rescue will receive a 15 day adoption probation period. This period starts the day the dog enters the care of the adopter. This means that the adoptive family has 15 days to determine that dog is a good fit for them. Although it may feel scary to not meet the dog before adopting, the 15 day period allows you to get to know the dog within your home. If you buy a dog off of Kijiji or at a local shelter you may be given a couple hours to meet the dog. We believe that our program's 15 day probation provides much more insight into how he or she will fit into your home, rather than. a brief meet and greet.

More about this rescue

R.E.B.E.L Dog Rescue was founded in 2020 by a small group of young women with one thing is common: a love for dogs. Since establishment, RDR has successfully found forever homed for over 700 dogs. Our mission is to rescue dogs in dire situations and give them a second chance at life through education and empowerment. All of our dogs come the streets and shelters across Texas, where they are experiencing a dog overpopulation crisis. Our team has travelled to the State to see first-hand how we can help and make a difference in the lives of animals.
R.E.B.E.L stands for: rescue, educate, believe, empower and love dogs. We live by these words every day and encourage the dog-loving community to follow suit!
