Story
Gally is a happy go lucky kind of dog! This fun boy was surrendered to us when his previous family was going through some medical issues. Gally loves to meet all people and does great with dogs with a proper introduction. Gally can sometimes be very strong and over excited with new people and dogs. He is looking for a family that can keep up with his training and energy level. We recommend a teen or older family due to his jumpy and rambunctiousness. Gally loves long walks, swimming and playing with his toys. He enjoys a good cuddle too! Gally has been diagnosed with Idiopathic Epilepsy and requires medication three times daily. He has not suffered from seizures since March 2024 and is well controlled on his medication.

Story
My name is Sarah Jessica Barker. I'm a 1 year old Australian Sheppard mix with the prettiest eyes. I'm a little bit of a nervous girl who takes her time when warming up to people, but once I'm there, boy am I love bug! Whoever ends up loving and adopting me should know that it will take a few meet and greets before I can go home. I'm not sure where my anxiety stems from, but when I get nervous, I like to hide in my crate, so it's important for me to have a safe space in my future home that I can retreat to. I like it when people take things really slow with me, go at my speed, and allow me to decide if I want to be touched or not.I have so many sweet quirks - for example, my favourite staff member taught me a gesture that means it's time for pets! This gesture helps me decide if I want to be touched or if I'm not ready for it yet. I like being offered plenty of choices, which is important especially since I'm so anxious.It's essential for me to go to a home with a dog-friendly dog to best help me transition into my new home. I love love love having a furry friend, you can see my silly and confident side come out the moment I hang out with a fellow canine!I would do best in a home without children because little people scare me when they move too fast. I have some boundaries, especially with touch, and kids might not understand that when they're younger. I'm sure I'd get along with anyone who is a teenager and older as long as they understand my needs. It's important for my future adopters to be willing to be patient with me and who are willing to help me through my anxiety. I know you're out there and I can't wait to meet you!

Story
Winter is a loving and loyal dog, a Chow and Australian Shepherd mix. She adores being petted and enjoys playing, although she’s not much into chasing balls or toys unless it’s indoors. Winter is incredibly attached to her family and always wants to stay close. She’s particular about her bathroom habits, only going on grass, never on concrete. True to her Chow heritage, Winter tends to bark at anyone who passes by the house, making her an excellent watchdog. She’s also good with cats and is very friendly with visitors, as long as you let her sniff you first. Despite her initial caution, she’s a gentle and affectionate companion. Winter has grown up with my kids over the past three years and is wonderful with children, including my son’s friends when they visit. She enjoys sniffing other dogs and playing or chasing them in the dog park to play, but if she’s not in the mood, she’ll simply ignore them. All in all, Winter is a wonderful family dog with a big heart.

Story
I'm Bandit, and I'm on a journey to find a forever family that will appreciate my loyalty and dedication. While I've had my share of challenges, I'm working hard on becoming the best version of myself, and I'm ready for the next adventure in life. I was surrendered to Dog Tales because I was protective of my family. It takes me some time to warm up to new people, but I've been putting in the effort and making lots of progress in my training. I'm a smart pup who's eager to learn and please my humans. I need a family who is committed to continuing my training journey, and I promise to give it my all. With the right guidance, I know I can be the best companion you've ever had. I can be selective with dogs, so it's important that any potential canine companions are a good fit for my personality. Plenty of playtime and fetch sessions are a must—I absolutely love playing with my people. I'm always ready for the next adventure. Whether it's a game of fetch, a hike in the woods, or simply enjoying quality time together, I'm up for it. I'm excited to share my love, loyalty, and intelligence with a family who will appreciate all that I have to offer. If you're willing to invest time and effort into helping me become the best dog I can be, then I'm ready to be your dedicated companion. Together, we can create a future filled with love, training successes, and exciting adventures.

Border Collie

Male, 7 yrs 7 mos
King City, ON
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details

Story
This energetic boy is looking for a confident and active owner. Bairn is high energy and loves to keep busy! He enjoys going for runs, long walks, swimming and cuddling with his people. Bairn thrives with constant training and loves to learn new things - he is such a smarty pants! He is reactive to new people, dogs and some vehicles; he will need to be walked on a muzzle as a precaution. Bairn’s reactivity is decreased greatly with a combination of: draining his energy, always keeping distance from triggers, positive reinforcement for good behaviour, and constant training on his walks to occupy his mind and keep him in control. Bairn will need a dedicated owner to continue this with him long term. Bairn is not friendly with new people and will need slow controlled interactions when introducing him to a new person. Once he can trust you, he is a lovable and goofy guy. Patience and understanding can go a long way with Bairn and, in time, he will prove he is the best boy! He is only suitable in a house with a fully fenced yard with no small children or other dogs.

Flawless

Border Collie

Female, 11 mos

Details
Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Flawless was surrendered to us from an extremely neglectful situation. She spent the first few weeks in the hospital being treated for an infected wound on her paw and on a re-feeding schedule due to being emaciated. This is an experience no puppy should ever have to endure. Fast forward to now, Flawless is thriving. She is healthy as can be, her coat is luscious and she has filled out. She is ready for her forever home. She is extremely high energy, she loves to play fetch and learn new things. Flawless has been getting better with dogs with slow introductions, and instead of being fearful and reactive (as she once was) she engages to play with dogs and is very curious. She will still require slow and controlled introductions with dogs. Flawless is as sweet and cuddly as can be with people she is familiar with. She is a good listener and will follow you like your shadow. She gets extremely attached to her people. With strangers Flawless can be very reactive and wary. It takes her some time to trust people. She will require slow and cautious introductions. Her ideal home would be with someone that does not have visitors often, and when they do they are prepared to work on building relationships. It will take time and patience for her to make friends. Flawless could possibly go to a home with another dog after a few meet and greets at Dog Tales to ensure they are compatible. She would do best in an adult only home with someone that is home often.
