Story
Domino is a victim of divorce. Domino is a great dog, he wants a family he can love and protect. Domino is 5 years old, came in from a rescue in Antigua when he was around 2 yrs old. The family had him for 2 years. He has great energy, loves to walk & play but will also relax, not hyper or over active. In last year the family dynamic has changed drastically, there has been a lot of stress in the home. Because of this, Domino's behavior shifted from laid back to being stressed, since he's been here, he is happy and content, listens well. The reality is the family just didn't want to deal with Domino's stress on top of their own. He will need a balanced, happy home, he thrives for the security of his people loving & praising him. He can have another dog in the home but he is content being the only dog, and also content being left alone He's a gentle guy looking for love and just wants to sit by your chair winning your approval. He also loves his crate & crate trained.

Story
Ranger is the tallest of the males in his litter of 10. He is vocal and loves to tell you about his day and then tell you again! He loves to be pet and looks at a gate as a challenge, not a barrier. He is a typical busy puppy, who loves to play, run, and wrestle. He will be a large dog, as both mom and dad are over 75 pounds. He is looking for a forever home that has some experience with the food motivated lab and stubborn mastiff. It is recommended that he attend a puppy socialization class to become comfortable with friends who are not his siblings. He will be visiting the vet this week for his vaccines, flea and tick treatment, microchip, and wellness screening. He will come with a voucher for his neuter at 6 months of age at our vet in Woodstock. His adoption fee is $500. You must be 21 years old to adopt and provide vet and personal references. An application to adopt him can be found on our website www.oxfordcountyanimalrescue.com. Click on Adopt, then Dogs for Adoption and scroll to the bottom of the page. All applications are reviewed, and if we feel you might be a good fit for him, you will be contacted to arrange a home visit as well as for permission to speak with your vet. Repeated phone calls and emails with not advance your application. We are a volunteer, foster based rescue and there is no opportunity to meet him before an application has been approved.

Story
Rocky is one of the smaller male pups from a litter of 10. He is a challenging pup who pushes every limit he can! He will need a firm, patient owner who sets boundaries and stand by them. Like his brothers, he is a typical little boy who loves to run and chase and wrestle until it's time to eat. He will be a large dog, as both mom and dad are over 75 pounds. He is looking for a forever home that has some experience with the food motivated lab and stubborn mastiff.

Story
Meet Shelby, a cute, sweet, cuddly, energetic girl looking for her furever home. We believe she is about 1-1.5 years old. She was found all alone at a hiking lookout, probably waiting for her people to come back for her. She had no collar or chip, and no-one came to look for her. She was extremely shy, nervous, and hungry and a bit worse for wear when she was found, but she is finding her groove now! She is very eager to please, and a quick study as she is very food motivated. She is currently working on crate training, loose leash walking, sit, down and leave it. She is house trained as long as she is let outside regularly, but she does not ask to go out. She seems to warm up to females quicker than men, but is becoming more confident with time. She doesn't like to be left alone, and is still a bit nervous of new people and places . She is currently being fostered with an older female lab/shepherd/ mastiff mix and is learning the ropes from her. She has learned to swim, fetch, chase sticks, play tug of war, wrestle and is learning to play with toys instead of shoes. She does like to chew! She likes to go for car rides and is developing a fascination for chasing squirrels. We are working on redirecting this new hobby. She has met a few other dogs and cats, but has not spent a lot of time with cats so she may be a bit too interested in them as they resemble squirrels. She has done well with the few older kids she has met . She is looking for a family who can give her lots of love and continue to work with her to help her continue to become more secure and confident. She is up to date on vaccines, heartworm negative, flea and tick treated and has been spayed. Her adoption fee is $500. You must be 21 years old to adopt and provide vet and personal references. An application to adopt her can be found on our website www.oxfordcountyanimalrescue.com. Click on Adopt, then Dogs for Adoption and scroll to the bottom of the page.

Story
Vinny is a very cuddly little guy. He will snuggle right in with you on the couch or in bed. He'll even jump up into your lap as soon as you are sitting down. He LOVES people! He loves to play fight with his sister Luna, and his foster family, but is very gentle. He really doesn't enjoy being picked up and held though. He is a voracious eater and loves to chew on sticks, blankets, toys, and his bed. He needs lots of redirection and verbal cues to stop chewing on those things. He is very food motivated and learns new tasks quickly. He will bark at other dogs in neighbouring yards or on walks. His foster family is working on using treats to distract/reward him for proper behaviour. He is curious, cuddly and cute and you will fall in love with him as he follows you all around the house! He is neutered, is up to date on his vaccines, is heartworm negative, has been flea and tick treated, and is microchipped. His adoption fee is $500. You must be 21 years old to adopt and provide vet and personal references. An application to adopt him can be found on our website www.oxfordcountyanimalrescue.com.
