Limbo💛 | in Toronto

Limbo is a sweet, gentle 10-month-old Anatolian Shepherd mix looking for his forever family. At around 90 lbs, he may be a big boy, but at heart he’s a calm, affectionate teddy bear. Limbo adores people - including kids - and gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes. He’s fully house trained, has beautiful manners, and is a wonderfully easy companion.

Limbo walks nicely on leash, enjoys relaxing outdoors watching the world go by, and is happiest with moderate, structured daily walks. He loves having another dog around and has been thriving with his foster sibling.

🩺 Medical Needs & Surgery Fund

Limbo has bilateral elbow dysplasia, likely linked to poor nutrition early in life. He is currently comfortable on a daily dose of meloxicam and is scheduled for corrective elbow surgery on January 27th at Caledon Mountain Veterinary Hospital to improve his long-term comfort and mobility.

This surgery — along with imaging, anesthesia, rehabilitation, and aftercare — is a significant expense for our rescue. If you’re able, we would be incredibly grateful for donations toward Limbo’s surgery and recovery, or even for sharing his fundraiser to help us reach more people.

Following surgery, Limbo will need:

Controlled, low-impact exercise
Ideally a home with minimal stairs
An adopter committed to joint-friendly routines and long-term care

Despite his size, Limbo is not a high-energy dog. ❤️ He enjoys calm walks, gentle play, and mental enrichment, and would do well in a city or suburban home where his activity can be thoughtfully managed. He is not suited for farm life or free roaming.

Limbo is an incredibly affectionate, patient puppy who simply wants to be close to his humans. He will be a deeply loyal companion to the family who can offer him the structure, love, and support he deserves.
