Name: Breed: Age: Gender: Weight: Good with cats or Small Animals: Good with dogs: Good with Young Children: Good with Older Children: Fenced Yard Required: Crate-Trained: House Trained: Name: Milo Breed: Lab/Corso Cross DOB:  August 2024 Gender: Male Weight: 35lbs and growing Good with cats: Not Tested but probably Good with dogs:  Yes Good with Children: Over 7 years old Fenced Yard Required: Preferred House Trained: Almost! Location: London, Ontario   Bon Giorno! My name is Milo, but I go by many names at home - my foster dad calls me Pepito (he says I just look like a “Pepito”, whatever that means!) and my foster sis calls me Pookie, cauz, according to her, I just look adorable. I’m a 4 month-old Lab Retriever- Cane Corso male. The Canuck in me gives me my floppy ears and makes me a highly food-motivated cuddly teddy bear, and the Italian (the Cane Corso is an Italian Mastiff breed) gives me my piercing grey-green eyes and “tux” – I have a white front on smart brown fur flecked generously with black all along my back and tail - Mamma Mia! Cosi Bello (so handsome)!  They expect me to be a big ‘un when I grow up, but I’m a petite 35lbs (about 17Kg) right now.   I have enjoyed being with my foster family, but am ready to live la dolce vita with my forever family! Dad has been training me to be your faithful friend all my life – walking on a leash and potty training are ongoing, although I still do have accidents indoors (cauz I’m a pupster!); he has also taught me to wait for my kibble until he says “OK”, to sit, to stay (on a good day!), and to leave it until released. I’ve also trained my sis to play my favorite game of fetch with me, throwing a ball over and over again until SHE gets tired! I am up to date on all my shots and have been microchipped. They say I’ll need “fixing” later – I wonder what that is?!   I am easy-going, mischievous yet loving, and go out of my way to try and meet other doggies and humans when I’m on my walks. I play well with all the dogs I meet, although dad says I can be a “trifle over-enthusiastic”. I do feel a little scared when I meet strangers for the first time, but it’s nothing that a treat (or two, or three) can’t take care of! My unique selling proposition (dad says I gotta market myself) happens to be cuddling – every evening without fail, after supper and my last constitutional, I curl up on the couch with dad, put my head on his lap (or flop on his chest completely), and catch a few Zs. He seems to like that – sorry, change that to LOVE that!   Milo’s adoption fee is $850 which includes his vaccines, preventatives, microchip and neuter when he is older.   If you think you can give him a happy ever after home, please complete our online adoption application at this link https://www.animalert.ca/apply/dog-adoption  If you wish to learn more about Animalert, please visit our website at Animalert.ca Due to the volume of emails, phone calls and messages Animalert receives, it is not possible to respond to all applications.

Story
Barks and Meows Rescue introduces Gunner. He is a yellow labrador Retriever who was born in May 2021. He weighs 57lbs and has a medium-length hair coat. Gunner was transferred to our Rescue where the opportunity for adoption is much greater here.     Gunner is a very happy active boy. He requires stimulation as he is on the move a great deal of the day. He loves playing with other dogs, especially chasing. He is very fast and will try and herd the other dog/dogs he is playing with. Gunner is very social with children and people. He was in foster care at another rescue since he was 4 months old but never found the right family. Gunner is astute and has excellent recall. He would benefit and excel from obedience classes. He rides well in a vehicle and loves car rides. Gunner needs work and practice walking on a lead and body harness. He has a 1/4 acre, fully fenced area, to run on at his foster home so is not used to going for walks. He would do fine in a home with older children as the younger ones, he would bowl over accidentally when he gets playful. The ideal home for Gunner is one where the family includes him in their outdoor activities. He needs to be able to run a good hour or perhaps go on a good long hike when it's not hot out. He requires mental stimulation so leaving him home with some toys won't work for this boy at his age. He is still a big puppy but housebroken. Gunner is neutered, up to date with vaccines, 4dx tested negative, dewormed, and on heartworm/flea/tick prevention.   Thank you very much Melissa Caron Photography for these lovely photos you took.

Story
Barks and Meows Rescue introduces Oh Henry. He is one of 8 puppies born to Mommy Ellie on October 18. There are 5 girls and 3 boys in this litter. Ellie was rescued already Pregnant from a high-kill shelter. She had come in as a stray with a large pure black lab. We believe looking at these pups, that is who the father of the litter is. We believe this litter will reach 60 lbs plus when fully grown. They have thick, shiny coats. The entire litter has wonderful affectionate personalities. Currently, they are similar in all aspects. This entire litter is extremely affectionate and loves to be held and cuddled. They will be high-energy dogs based on their breed mixes. They have huge appetites and have been fed Royal Canin Medium Breed Puppy Food. They eat extremely fast, just like labs tend to do. They are fed every 4 hours during the day. They are a very busy breed mix and are currently stimulated with toys. They are paper trained and get warm quite easily. They give kisses but are very squiggly when trying to hold them. Oh Henry loves attention and is constantly wagging his tail for more kisses. He plays well with his siblings. They love the soft squeaky toys and are so excited when their foster family is in with them. They are not the greatest in the bath but are getting used to it. They are always on the go. Dynamics of owning a Labraheeler Labraheelers respond well to being trained, which is an advantage, especially for novice dog ownersLab and Cattle dog mix dogs make excellent companion pets for active individualsLabraheeler dogs are highly intelligent dogsMany Labraheelers make good watchdogs and will bark at strangers that approach your home.Labraheelers are loving and loyal toward their familyLabraheeler dogs are very active and need energetic owners who can spend hours outdoors exercising the pet.Labraheeler dogs are excellent exercise partners for people who enjoy outdoor sports and want a dog that would be able to walk long distances without easily getting tired. Labraheeler dog is the right dog for that job. Labrador Retrievers as well as Cattle dogs are tireless dogs that really enjoy and even need long walks every day to stay in good mental and physical shape. If you have the time that it takes to properly care for and exercise your dog every day - rain or shine - then Labraheeler may be the dog for you. Labraheelers need lots of space to thrive. Living in a city apartment is not ideal for these active dogs that need lots of outdoor exercises frequently which may not be possible in the cramped city environment. Even if you have a large park nearby but live in an apartment building then it would help to have neighbors with hearing problems, otherwise, you may get many complaints that your dog creates too much noise. Labraheelers are naturally vocal dogs that will bark and they will bark a lot, especially when not left alone or when they miss their long walk and have the energy that needs to be used in some way. Barking may be a solution for a Labraheeler to keep himself or herself busy for some time but for your neighbors, this may not be a pleasant experience. That is another reason why Labraheeler dogs are not recommended for people who live in a city apartment. This litter is currently very social and its adopters will need to continue to do so. Mommy Ellie is a very social cattle dog which is not the norm for her breed so that is a bonus for this litter genetically. Oh Henry had his first set of vaccines on Dec 13 including Bordetella. He was microchipped and weighed 6.2 kg. He is currently the largest in the litter. UPDATE: He had his 2nd set of vaccines including Lepto on Jan 23. He weighs 10.5 kg. UPDATE: He had his 3rd set of vaccines including Rabies on Feb 3. He weighed 15.3kg. A fully fenced yard or farm is mandatory to apply for Oh Henry. Preference will be given to those families who have another socialized dog in the home to keep him company and to teach him the dynamics of the home. As always, Barks and Meows Rescue will pay for the spays and neuters of this litter at 6 months of age at the West Lorne Animal Hospital.

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. 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. We thankyou for respecting these guidelines.
