Toronto dog needs forever home in the country
I have to give up my loving 3 1/2 year old border collie/shepherd
cross, and am desperately seeking a new home for her. She's about 50 lbs and black with white markings, very smart, and very loyal. She was not meant to be a city dog. We lived outside of the city until she was a year old and she seemed fine (a bit vocal, as goes with the breed). Since we moved to Toronto she's gotten more and more stressed, manifesting in a lot of leash aggression and barking. She's no longer able to handle any kind of off-leash dog park. I've done some extra training with her around this issue (clicker training) and we spent a solid six months working hard on it, and another year after that trying to reinforce good behaviours while avoiding stressful situations, but I can't seem to make it better. I really want to find a country home for her, preferably without other dogs on the property. Can anyone offer suggestions? This is obviously a heartbreaking choice for me to make. I've spent over a year mulling this one over. |

Toronto dog needs forever home in the country
Sadly, you are highly unlikely to find a home for your dog on this site.
It was developed for people working in rescue to discuss problems and solutions..... not for placing dogs. Today, there are just a few of us who check in now and then to direct dog owners back to local sources. You are more likely to find a new home through a local or regional rescue/animal welfare organization. In your case, advertising in a rural newspaper classified ads in the areas just outside Toronto is likely to be far more productive than the listing here. Jo Wolf Martinez, Georgia, USA |
