AKRIA - FOSTER NEEDED/FOSTER TO ADOPT
Akria is running out of time. She needs a committed foater for ๐SUNDAY MAY 25th.
3 Years Old | Spayed | 45 lbs | Fully Vetted | Heartworm Negative | UTD on vaccines |
Meet Akria, a spunky little firecracker with a heart full of love. Don’t let her compact frame fool ya—this gal is solid muscle, sweet as sweet tea, and ready to find herself a forever home that’ll love her as big as the sky.
โ
Easy to leash up (even if she’s dancin’ with excitement)
โ
Strong, but walks like a dream once you’re movin’
โ
Listens real good when you tell her what’s what
โ
Always wearin’ a big ol’ smile
Now, this girl don’t much care for fences—she’ll talk smack through the bars if she sees another dog struttin’ by. But don’t you worry, once out in the open she can coexist just fine with a dog that don’t mind her being a little bossy.
She’d love a home where she’s got:
๐โ๏ธ A yard to run her zoomies out
๐พ A human who’ll throw the ball just one more time (okay, maybe five)
๐งก Someone to love on her and give her that attention she craves
She’s been around youngins before and might just do real well in a lively, loving family who can match her energy and give her space to shine. So if you're lookin' for a ride-or-die gal who’ll keep you smilin’, Akria’s your girl. She’s ready to trade in the kennel for a couch, a yard, and a human (or two) to call her own.

KOBE - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION/FOSTER TO ADOPT
6 years old | ๐ถ 65 lbs | Unaltered Male (scheduled for the summer) | Bully Breed
Kobe MUST go to an experienced home, inorder to ensure he is set up for success.
Kobe is a sweet, soulful boy who’s ready for a new chapter with someone who can give him the life he deserves. He’s a gentle giant with a playful side and a heart full of love – a true “big suck” who thrives on affection and connection.
Kobe is extremely affectionate and loyal. He’s friendly with all people and especially loves attention from visitors. He’s a perfect mix of playful and couch potato. He enjoys walks, gets excited when company arrives, and settles in happily for a cuddle session. Kobe is very obedient and a great listener. He responds well to direction and just wants to please.
Kobe has lived with another dog, but we need to be mindful is an unaltered male. He could live with kids 12+ but he is sensitive to stress in his home, and would do best in a calm environment. Kobe spends most of his time alone as his current family juggles multiple jobs. This life is unfair to such a loving, people-focused dog.
Kobe went to Wagtime, and doesn’t really show a lot of interest or reaction to other dogs, but he shows signs that—with patience and proper introductions—he would love to play and interact positively with other dog. He is not trained to be off-leash, so getting him out on a long line, will be important when practicing recall.
Kobe is fed Inukshuk, a high-quality fish-based dog food that supports his energy and health. He has a playful nature but is polite—he doesn’t jump up on people and knows how to respect space. At this time, Kobe has no known health issues and is in good physical condition.
Kobe is ready to love and be loved. He’s not just looking for a new home – he’s looking for his person. If you’re patient, kind, and ready to help this sweet boy feel safe and secure, Kobe will reward you with unwavering loyalty and affection.
๐ฉ Reach out to us today to give Kobe his first real chance at life.

JAMIE - FOSTER NEEDED/FOSTER TO ADOPT
Meet Jamie – A Sweet Soul Desperately Waiting for a Second Chance
๐พ 3-Year-Old Female | ๐ถ Lab Mix | ๐ Currently in Shelter | ๐ Approx. 50 lbs
Jamie is a beautiful, gentle lab mix who’s been overlooked for far too long. She's currently stuck in a small cage, day in and day out – and it’s breaking our hearts. This friendly, affectionate girl has so much love to give, and all she needs is someone to see her for the special dog she is.
Jamie is wonderful with people and gets along well with other dogs. She’s sweet-natured, easy to love, and just wants to be part of a family. Like many shelter dogs, she’ll need a bit of time to decompress once she’s out of the shelter, but she’s the kind of dog who will blossom quickly in a home full of kindness and patience. Jamie will do best in a home that has the time to help her settle in and show her what it means to be safe and loved. She’s only about 50 pounds—a perfect medium size—and she will be forever grateful to the person who gives her a chance.
Jamie is more than ready for her fresh start. She is up to date on her vaccinations and heartworm prevention. She is spayed and a healthy little lab mix ready to find her family.

LINDSAY - FOSTER NEEDED/FOSTER TO ADOPT
Meet Lindsay – A Gentle Soul Ready for Her Break ๐พ
Lindsay is a total sweetheart who’s been overlooked for far too long. While we originally stepped in to help her pen mate, Clint, it was Lindsay’s quiet, loving spirit that truly grabbed our hearts. She’s been living in a shelter cage for over two years, patiently waiting for someone to notice her.
Lindsay is incredibly dog-friendly and would love a canine buddy to hang out with. We haven’t had a chance to test her with cats or younger kids, but we have a feeling she’d do well with gentle, older children (10+) who understand how to give her the space she may need to adjust.
After two long years in a shelter, Lindsay deserves a home where she can finally decompress, feel safe, and learn what it means to be truly loved. She doesn’t need much—just patience, kindness, and a quiet space to rest and settle in.
๐ Here’s the hard part: Lindsay can’t enter our rescue until a foster is confirmed. Without a foster home, she’ll remain in her cage, waiting—again.
She is vetted, spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, and her heartworm prevention.
If you’ve ever considered fostering, please let it be for her. Lindsay has waited long enough.

MAX - FOSTER NEEDED/FOSTER TO ADOPT
Hi, I'm Max – Please Read My Story ๐พ
I’m Max. I’m a 2-year-old Mastiff mix with a big heart, a lot of energy, and even more love to give. I was rescued from a really bad situation with people who didn’t treat me right. Since then, I’ve been trying to be the best boy I can be — but now I need a new home again, and time is running out.
Right now, I’m staying with a kind person and his friend, but his friend is 74 and just can’t handle my size and energy anymore. I am getting kicked out. They’ve tried everything to help me find a new place, but the rescues are full… and I’m scared. I’ve heard what happens to dogs like me when no one steps in. I don’t want to go to a shelter. I don’t want to be put down. I just want someone to see me and give me a chance.
Here’s what you should know about me:
โ
๏ธI’m super active and would thrive in a home with a big backyard where I can run and play.
โ
๏ธI love walks, cuddles, and being told I’m a good boy — it makes my whole day.
โ
๏ธI’m good with other dogs and kids, but I still get excited and jump sometimes. I’m learning, I promise.
I’m a sweet boy with a good heart. I just need someone who can see past the rough edges and give me the chance I’ve been waiting for.
Please don’t let me fall through the cracks. Please help me find a home before it’s too late.
With love and hope,
Max ๐พ
Max is still on the Rez. We can not save him until we find him a place to land. He is currently not neutered and will get all his vetting done. Before we can take Max into our rescue, he needs a committed foster home. Cats are unknown, kids 10+ and super dog friendly. He’s a big goof and will make anyone very happy.

๐ฉถZENA – URGENT NEED - ADOPTION FEE WAIVED๐ฉถ
My name is Zena… I’ve lived a lot of life. But the best part of it… the part that mattered most… was the time I spent by his side.
I wasn’t just his dog. I was Garry’s best friend. His comfort. His reason to smile on hard days. You see, my person was a paraplegic… but that never stopped him from loving me with his whole heart. We had our routine, our bond, our quiet moments that only we understood.
Then things changed. He got sick. A brain tumor. And even though he was deteriorating really quickly, he kept fighting. I could feel him slipping away, little by little.
In his final days, they brought me to see him. I laid beside him. I knew. I felt it. He was leaving soon. He held on as long as he could… but yesterday, he had to let go.
I wasn’t ready. I don’t think I ever would be.
They told me he asked for me. That he wanted me to see him one last time, so I’d never think he left me on purpose. That kind of love… it’s once in a lifetime.
Now I’m learning to live in a world without him. And I’m hoping there’s someone out there who understands what it’s like to lose someone you love that deeply. Someone who knows grief… but also believes in healing… and the kind of love that helps you feel safe, happy, and whole again.
Because even though he’s gone… I will love him forever. And I know he’s up there watching over me… making sure I find a family who will love me for the rest of my days, the same way I loved him for all of his.
Love,
ZENA ๐ถ๐พ๐ฉถ

9 Months Old | Bully Mix | 50 lbs | Dog + Cat Friendly | Crate + House Trained
Say hello to Indy, affectionately known as Indy Baby—a sweet, snuggly, low-energy pup who’s just starting out in life and already proving to be an absolute gem. The poor dude has been returned TWICE - the poor guy needs a family that has breed experience and someone who is willing to give this young pup the time he deserves. He’s a great dog with so much love to give. He needs a family that will provide him with the physical and mental stimulation a young dog needs.
This handsome boy is:
๐พ Calm and cuddly with the occasional puppy zoomie
๐พ Gentle with cats and dogs – he LOVES to snuggle and play with other pups
๐พ Great with kids, even toddlers (just the occasional puppy nibble, easily redirected.
๐พ Crate trained and sleeps through the night like a champ
๐พ A quiet guy who settles quickly and takes corrections well
Indy is the kind of pup who will curl up beside you on a heated blanket, follow you around the house like a shadow, and greet you with a tail wag and sweet kisses. He’s food-motivated, loves squeaky toys, bully sticks, and those famous Tim Hortons doggie Timbits (he’s got taste!).
He walks nicely on leash, enjoys car rides, and would thrive in a home with:
Another dog who wants a best friend and cuddle buddy
No small children. Although very friendly, he needs a mature household that will have the time for this poor guy.
Cats (he’s a respectful roommate)
A family who understands puppies and is ready to keep up his positive training
Whether you’re looking for a laid-back best friend or a sweet pup to grow with your family, Indy is the whole package. He’s got love to give, manners to build on, and a heart of gold that just wants to belong.

ZENA - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
She loves unconditionally…
It’s all she’s ever known.
For 10 years, Zena was her owner’s whole world. She never left their side. Always watching… always waiting… always loving. The kind of dog who loved her person more than she loved herself.
Now, that person is in palliative care. And Zena is left behind… confused… heartbroken… and still just as loyal.
She’s 10 years old… a gentle Shepherd mix… and the kind of companion you don’t come across twice. Calm, house-trained, sweet with kids… and happiest just being near her person.
No cats for this girl (she’s got a strong prey drive)… and she’d thrive as your one and only. What she needs now is a peaceful home… and a soft place to land for her golden years.
Anyone who gets to call Zena theirs… consider yourself lucky.
A LOVE LIKE HERS ONLY COMES ONCE.

Puppy playtime can look a little wild… nipping, rolling, growling, chasing… but don’t worry, it’s all part of how puppies learn and grow ๐ถ๐พ
Puppies explore the world with their mouths… so yes, nipping is totally normal. It’s how they interact with littermates, test boundaries, and learn bite inhibition. When they play, it can seem chaotic… tumbles, barks, growls, chases, and even a yelp or two. But it’s all part of learning how to dog.
What you’re seeing is completely normal…
• Nipping without intent to hurt
• Play growls and barks
• Zoomies and tumbles
• Taking turns chasing each other
But here’s what’s not normal…
• One puppy constantly overpowering another without breaks
• Escalating aggression (snarling, snapping, stiff body language)
• A puppy ignoring clear “no” signals from another pup
• Fearful responses… tail tucked, trying to escape, hiding
They play hard, nap harder, and every moment is a step in learning social skills, confidence, and connection… with our help guiding the way.

ASH – FOSTER UPDATE
Sometimes a dog arrives… and it’s like he already knows what love feels like, even if he’s never truly had it.
Ash is doing so well in his foster home. His foster mom says every time she tries to take a photo, he runs straight over for cuddles. He’s not camera shy… he’s just love-hungry.
He’s still learning his manners (a few potty mistakes and the occasional shoe-napping adventure), but he’s quiet, sweet, and just wants to be close. No barking. No fuss. Just love. That’s Ash.
There’s something so special about watching a dog finally relax…
When the tail wags freely.
When the eyes soften.
When home starts to feel like safety.
We’re not sure where Ash’s journey will lead just yet… but what we do know is this:
He’s not just surviving anymore.
He’s finally learning what it means to be loved.
Thank you to his incredible foster family for giving him the kind of care every dog deserves. ๐ค๐พ๐ก
With gratitude,

WE ARE URGENT NEED FOR FOSTER HOMES
They’ve been dumped. Abandoned. Left out in the cold. ๐ฅบ
Some are strays who’ve never known kindness.
Others once had families… but were tossed aside like they didn’t matter.
And now, they wait, in overcrowded shelters or alone on the streets hoping someone shows up before it’s too late.
Fostering is their lifeline. ๐พ
We’re urgently looking for foster homes to help us save more dogs before they’re euthanized… or left to survive the freezing nights alone.
You don’t need to be perfect.
You just need a safe home… a kind heart… and the willingness to say, “I’ll help.”
Here’s what we provide:
Crate. Food. Vet care. Support.
You’re never on your own.
We also work with you to find the right fit … whether you have kids, cats, dogs, or a quiet space for someone who needs peace. We’ll assess each dog and match them to your lifestyle so fostering is a positive experience for both of you.
Because this isn’t just rescue work…
It’s heartbreak prevention.
It’s rewriting endings.
It’s reminding these dogs that someone still cares.
If you’ve ever wanted to help… this is your sign.
www.thedogrescuesociety.net/adoption-form
Help us keep them out of the cold… and into the arms of someone who sees their worth.

CLOVER - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
Hi it’s me Clover๐๐ถ๐
I might be fun-sized, but don’t let that fool you๐คญI’ve got a heart full of love and a BIG personality. I’m the kind of pup who’ll make you laugh with my silly zoomies, snuggle close when you need a friend, and greet you like you’re the most important person in the world… because to me, you are.
I’m just a year old, full of playful energy and affection. I love toys (especially squeaky ones!), other animals, car rides, and people of all ages. I may be a little too bouncy for tiny toddlers, but it’s just because I get so excited to be around love.
I’ve got the basics down… crate-trained, leash trained, and I even signal when I need to go outside. I’m still learning how to say hi politely (I jump because I care!), but I’m a quick learner and eager to please.
All I really want is a family to call my own… someone who’s active, kind, and ready to love me as much as I’ll love them.
Could that be you?

MAXINE - URGENT FOSTER NEEDED/FOSTER TO ADOPT
Please share ๐ญ we are desperately still looking. We are waving the adoption fee for anyone who steps up to save Maxine.
We are so sad for Maxine, she has been in our care for over 3 weeks and we have been desperately looking for a suitable place for her to go with ZERO luck.
What do we do with a dog no one wants? Maxine is a GREAT dog and is looking to be someone's companion. She is beautiful and would desperately like a soft bed, and a quiet home to decompress in.
Maxine was sent to be euthanized TWICE. She was saved because people advocated for her and truly believed she is an amazing dog. The poor girl has spent the last year of her life in a cage with no family to call her own. Maxine escaped death and has sadly been back to the kennel life and she has been placed in boarding. We are hoping we can find a home with no other dogs or cats. Although she is NON REACTIVE, and doesn’t go looking for trouble, we don’t 100% trust her yet to fully interact with other dogs. Not to say that she wont have friends one day, but she really needs to settle and decompress. She will stay in boarding, until we find the right match. No small children - only because we are still getting to know Maxine, and we want her to succeed.
Here are a couple things we LOVE about Maxine.
โ
๏ธShe is calm and quiet.
โ
๏ธShe is crate trained
โ
๏ธShe is non reactive
โ
๏ธShe walks like a superstar on a leash
โ
๏ธShe is stunningly beautiful
โ
๏ธThe love and gratitude she shares will make your heart melt.
โ
๏ธShe is a companion dog.
โ
๏ธShe is gentle
โ
๏ธShe is obedient and wants to please
โ
๏ธShe has great teeth
Maxine's only downfall is that she should not live with another dog or cat. She CAN be around other dogs and be in a controlled and structured setting with them, but we do not feel living with another dog will be successful yet.
