Story
Tater and a sibling were dumped outside and left to fend for themselves. Luckily, they were found and brought to a shelter, and he has made his way into our care. He’s almost 6 mos now and growing like a weed. So far he is good with all people and dog selective, but social and happy. Tater requires a home that has people in it most of the time- so a 'work from home' situation would be ideal! If you can give this beautiful little buddy a home for him to grow into his soon-to-be large self, apply on our website! www.benevolentbullyrescue.com

Story
This little smoosh named Lena is an 8 mos old Bulldog mix. She had a less than ideal start to her life being tied outside for the majority of it. She is approximately 60lbs but will probably grow a fair bit, and end up in the 80lb range. Lena is in need of people that will give her the time, patience and understanding that she will need to flourish. She has lots of energy and gets reaaaallly excited to play and interact. But with some help she could easily be taught to use these things as positive attributes. Lena’s ✅: ~Humans ~Medium to Large dogs Lena’s ❓: ~Cats/small animals ~Small dogs Lena’s ❌: ~Living outdoors ~People who aren’t going to include her as apart of their family

This is a courtesy post. Please email bryan.patrick.raymond@gmail.com for further information. Meet Malice Rhodes: Your Active, Social, and Well-Mannered Companion Malice Rhodes is a delightful one-year-old Presa Canario weighing approximately 75 pounds. With a striking combination of athleticism and an easy-going nature, he brings the best of both worlds to any home. Personality and Behavior: When outdoors, Malice Rhodes thrives in an active environment, engaging in various activities and displaying his athleticism. However, once inside, he easily transitions into a calm and settled state, making him an ideal companion for both active and relaxed lifestyles. He doesn't demand excessive exercise but is more than capable of being lively if that's the pace you prefer. His social nature extends to both humans and fellow canine companions, displaying a friendly and open attitude in various social settings. Training and Behavior: Malice Rhodes boasts basic obedience skills and has been effectively crate trained. Interestingly, while he behaves exceptionally well within the home, he's equally comfortable outside the confines of the crate, exhibiting commendable behavior throughout. He doesn't display resource guarding tendencies, aggression, or separation anxiety, which makes him a truly remarkable pet. Specific Considerations: One important aspect to note is that while Malice Rhodes is typically sociable with other dogs, he may occasionally display humping behavior (roughly 5% of the time). As a result, a meet-and-greet with any potential dog siblings would be necessary to ensure compatibility and a harmonious living environment. Ideal Home Situation: Malice Rhodes is adaptable and would thrive in various home settings. His welcoming demeanor and lack of specific behavioral issues make him an excellent addition to families seeking a loyal, social, and well-mannered canine companion. Overall, Malice Rhodes is a gem of a dog, offering the perfect blend of sociability, adaptability, and good behavior. His presence will undoubtedly bring joy and companionship to any household lucky enough to welcome him.

Story
Thank you for your interest in Leo. While he grew up loved, Leo lived a very sheltered life and missed out on many of the exciting experiences we want our dogs to enjoy. But everything changed when he joined SPIN. Now, he's exploring new things like bustling cities, meeting people, cars, bikes, cozying up on couches, and even learning to walk on a leash. The first thing we learned about Leo is that he is an amazing dog.

Story
Alli Don’t swipe left! If Allie created her dating profile this is what she would say: I am looking for someone who can take me for long walks on the beach, spoil me with love and spend their time with me. I am miniature schnauzer that will definitely add spice to your life! Some say I can be a typical schnauzer so if you know the breed you know…. I have been called an alert dog. I can be vocal to let you know a neighbor is near, a delivery is at the door or there is a squirrel on the property. In saying this, I wouldn’t do well with shared walls. Your neighbors may not appreciate my alarm. Did someone say “cheese?” If so, I am all in! I will stop on a dime for a piece of cheese! I would make an excellent partner as I LOVE to be with my people. Best to keep me as a solo furry child. I have been known to show them who is boss and others don’t like it. I am ok with dogs outside that I see however I may bark at them. Keep me walking with you and I am good. I am a happy girl who is a svelte 15lbs, spayed, UTD on vaccinations, and microchipped. If you think you are a match for me please let me know as I am ready to be yours! All my love, Alli xxxx ••••••••• As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details! An application for me can be found at www.justpaws.ca. Just Paws is located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. We do not adopt out of province or country. Please note that although many of our dogs get along with children, we are not able to adopt to any household with kids under the age of 8 years old. This is a stipulation of our insurance and is not a reflection on suitability of the potential adopter.
