OUT-OF-TOWN Dogs with NDR refer to dogs we have saved that have yet to make their journey to Ontario. These dogs are currently in our care with the help of our partners in the area. These dogs will all travel to the Niagara Region once an appropriate adopter or local foster is found.

Foster insights/backstory:
Ember was found as a pregnant stray. The finder did find homes for all her puppies but kept Ember in a 10x10 outdoor kennel by herself for quite a while. She is now so very happy to be living inside and is very well behaved.
Ember is very shy at first. She has a very calm, sweet personality. She does get nervous when some of the other foster dogs bark at her but she’s only barked back a few times…usually she just runs past them. Her best friend is a 1yr old male that she plays very well with. She would make a great inside couch pup but I think she can adjust to any lifestyle. She is so very loving and gentle!
