Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Are you looking for a spunky young boy to add to your family? Well look no further as Buster is here! Buster in an energetic boy that would love to find a family that can spend lots of time each day on getting his energy out. He loves to run and play with his toys. One of his favorite toys is a rope that we have attached to a tree, he will tug at it for time and take short breaks to run around the yard before going back to the tug. This handsome boy would make the perfect camping or adventure buddy for those that love the outdoors. If he sounds like the perfect fit for you, apply today!
~ Buster is looking for an active home that will be able to take him on lots of adventures ~ An home with a single adult, couple, or family that have older children with large dog experience ~ Buster would do best in a home with no other dogs, cats, or small animals ~ We recommend Busters new family socialized him in a proper and safe way ~ Buster is looking for a house type home rather than an apartment due to him reactivity to dogs ~ Buster will need to be signed up for training (1 in person or 3 virtual) prior to going into his fur-ever home to ensure he can work on his big boy manners and basic obedience
Regularly Exhibited Behaviours Noticed: - High Energy - Reactivity - Under-Socialized - Can be vocal and jumpy at times - prey drive
Explanation of Behaviours: - A young dog who is high energy and will need a lot of training, attention, exercise, and enrichment to do well. - He will need to be socialized a lot in a safe and proper way to help set him up for success in the future. - He has shown some dog reactivity while in our care and can be vocal at times. He will need his adopters to help work on this with him in a safe and positive way.
This dog would benefit from: - Active home - Adult home or family with older teenaged children with large dog experience - No apartments - No other dogs, cats, small animals (only pet home) - Lots of training and socialization - Lots of time and attention
Training needs/behaviours that need to be worked with for this dog: - Basic Training - Basic Manners - Work on reactivity (specifically noted towards other dogs) - Work on prey drive

**Please remember that animals are coming back from foster care to the centres for their meet and greets. They will be experiencing a new environment and meeting new people, which means they may not exhibit the same behaviours they did in their foster videos or while in foster care.

Come into the Centre and if you see a pet you like, you are able to do a "Meet and Greet" with that pet. Spend some time in alone with the pet or take a dog out for a short walk. If you are still interested in adopting the pet you can meet with one of our Adoption Counsellors who will have you fill out and application and will ask you some questions about the environment in which you live. If you seem like a wonderful match and your envirnoment meets the needs of the pet then your application should be approved!
