A courtesy post for our long-time foster and dear BATM supporter.

Our friends at had a tragedy strike this morning with their own personal dog that has landed them with $20,000 in vet bills.

Their sweet girl Harley's sutures ruptured this morning from a spay complication.
She's woken up from surgery but is not out of the woods. They needed to remove 2 metres of intestine and now we need to wait and pray that her body accepts it.

She also may need a blood transfusion and a feeding tube.

There is nothing more terrifying than when an accident occurs. The anxiety and the anticipation they're both feeling right now is beyond overwhelming.

Please keep sweet Harley in your thoughts and prayers.
Please share this post.
And if you have the means to, please consider donating.

🖤ADOPT PANDORA🖤
*Sponsored Adoption Fee*

It’s frightful outside (here in London ON) but Pandora knows what she’s doing, she’s warming her tootsies to stay warm ❄️

F | 6Y | 23 KG | Mixed breed | Spayed | UTD on shots | Housebroken | Crate Trained | Good with dogs | Cat tested | Not kid tested | Fostered in London

A gift from the Gods themselves. The jewel that lights up every room she is in. Our Pandora will open your world up with newfound joy, adventure and tons of cuddles!

You know what they say, girls just wanna have fun and Pandora is no exception! So take her on walks or show her some cool tricks, she is here for a good time!

She may seem a little reserved when you first meet her, but after some time, she can come out of her shell and make new furry and human friends! Her sweet curiousity leads her to want to make doggie friends, and with the right support and introductions, she can develop great canine companions.

With new humans, Pandora would love it if you introduced her to your friends so she can warm up to them and make them her friends too!

Noises can be a bit scary for Pandora, so it is something to be mindful of as you guys work together to help her adjust to her new life. She is also a flight risk within the first couple of weeks, meaning even in a fully enclosed yard and in the house - it’s important to keep that leash on until she’s fully decompressed and settled in.

As with any dog, Pandora would greatly benefit from proper structure, boundary setting, and lots of love and patience. She is an absolute gem and is looking for the right family to help her sparkle to the max!

🖤ADOPT JOAN JETT🖤

* SPONSORED ADOPTION FEE *

F | 3Y | 25.4 KG | Mixed Breed | UTD on shots | Spayed | Dog tested - proper introductions needed | Cat tested | Kid tested - dog savvy kids | High energy | Playful | Excitable |Fostered in Sarnia | Instagram:

Guess who is feeling energetic!?! Whether it is a nice walk, a talent show displaying her latest tricks, or a good fetch sess, you can count on our Joan Jett in. Miss Jett is an avid learner. As long as you speak her love language, food, she is here to impress with her neat tricks!

Joanie loves a good routine and structure to her daily life. While she is not a big snuggle bug, just being near her humans fills her up with joy. She savours the little things in life, like chilling with you in a room or hanging around even when you're busy.

Meeting new people lights our girl up with excitement, which can look like jumping and leash pulling. With energy on energy on energy, Joanie prefers calm canine companions to complement her energy. Dogs with high excitable energy can be too much for Joan Jett to handle. We’ve seen Joanie do well with dog-savvy cats, so it is important that proper introduction and boundary setting are in place went introducing her to kitties.

Balance is key. That’s why in the perfect home for Joanie, she would be able to have it all: chill time, play time, tricks time. An unideal environment would be a chaotic, overly energetic one that can overwhelm her. As she has a ton of energy herself, she’ll run around, burn it off, then enter chill mode.

Our sweet girlie is one in a million. With her fun-loving, lively spirit to love, she is ready for a fam to love and help her thrive. Does this sound like you? Apply to adopt Joan Jett via the link in our bio! 🔗

🖤ADOPT CHEVY🖤
M | 9Y | 33.4 KG | Mixed Breed | Neutered | UTD on shots | Housebroken | Crate Trained | Knows basic commands | Not dog tested | Not cat tested | kid tested | Fostered in London, ON

Get ready to rev up your engines to welcome the energetic Chevy! Chevy has a sweet and affectionate personality that's bound to make you fall in love with him. He's always ready to play, but he also knows when it's time to be calm.

Some of Chevy's favourite things include a nice morning walk for him to burn off energy and enjoy all the sights around the neighbourhood. Chevy is very food motivated and strives off of structure, so having training sessions and fun enrichment activities will keep his mind engaged. Even though Chevy enjoys his physical activity, he's always ready to spend time with his humans - whether that's sitting by their side or getting some much-deserved belly rubs.

Chevy is still working on his leash walking skills. He sometimes will lunge and pull at his leash when something catches his attention. However, with consistent redirection and leash training, Chevy has already started to make progress. Consistent training and patience will help him make great progress in the future.

Chevy can be reactive to dogs depending on the situation and the individual dog, but has not met any dogs off-leash. With gradual introductions and proper boundaries, Chevy could coexist well with a doggy sibling. Chevy has not met any cats. Chevy has interacted with small children and is wonderful with them. Chevy can be protective of his family, so introducing guests gradually and making sure they approach him calmly and respectfully will help maintain positive interactions.

If you're looking for a buddy that's sweet and playful, then Chevy is the dog for you! Once he feels comfortable in his environment, his gentle and loyal side shines through. Adopt Chevy today if you're ready to give him a home where he can receive all the love and attention he deserves!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTINE!!

The woman who makes it all happen!

My partner in crime, my right-hand woman, my voice of reason, my very hardworking, never-ending ball of energy. She is the executive director of BATM, the brains of the operation. We have been on this wild ride together for four years.

If you’ve ever been to one of our events, you know exactly what we mean when we say her energy can light up an entire room. To know her is to love her, wholeheartedly.

What most people don’t see (unless you’re behind the scenes at BATM) is that she’s truly the glue that holds this entire operation together. From rebuilding our entire database from scratch and designing our website, to constant networking, planning, organizing, and running events - she does it all. She’s the one building booth setups, making late-night airport runs, helping me plan and run our spay and neuter clinic in Mexico, organizing storage (again and again), teaching our alumni on training days, educating our team, stepping in as an emergency foster when needed, and even modelling our merch. There isn’t a corner of this rescue she hasn’t helped shape, grow, or support. She pushes the team to discover what drives them and helps them build a path to chase it. She creates structure, systems, and stability in an ever-evolving organization and somehow does it all with a smile. The list of what this woman contributes could truly go on forever.

This woman is the reason I can weather the hard days. She doesn’t just believe in me—she stands beside me, helping turn this dream of mine into reality. She’s right there through the tough moments (and let’s be honest, there’s lot of those in rescue), and she’s right there beside me when it’s time to celebrate the wins, too.

We wouldn’t be where we are today without you.

SO BATM FAMILY, FRIENDS & SUPPORTERS please join me and my team in celebrating this wonderful woman by wishing her the best day ever !!!!!

Love, Dad (Shelbo) xoxo

🌈 In Loving Memory of Chief

Chief was truly one of a kind; the kind of dog you met once and never forgot. His kind soul and goofy demeanour had a way of instantly winning hearts.

He came into our care after being dumped as a senior at a local shelter, where he was sadly at risk of euthanasia due to his declining health. Chief had osteoporosis, compromised kidneys, and several other medical challenges. Because of this, we made the decision that he wouldn’t be a good candidate for adoption. Instead, we welcomed him into our Forever Foster Program, where he could live out his life surrounded by love and stability while we covered all of his medical needs.

Forever foster programs are vital because they give senior and medically complex dogs the chance to live their golden years in comfort — not overlooked or forgotten in a shelter. These programs allow us to ensure every dog is given the dignity, care, and love they deserve.

That’s where Kristin stepped in. She became exactly who Chief needed. Kristin brought him in for his monthly Librela shots, cared for him through his splenectomy recovery, and did everything possible to give him a safe, happy, and pain-free end of life.

Her children were also a huge part of Chief’s journey, showing him unconditional love and learning firsthand what compassion truly looks like. It’s deeply admirable to dedicate yourself so selflessly to an animal’s wellbeing & to raise the next generation to do the same.

Chief gained his wings this evening after suffering a seizure that left him in rough shape. We made the difficult decision to let him go peacefully, prioritizing his comfort and quality of life.

This program exists because of dogs like Chief — to give them a second chance at the life they deserve. We’re so grateful to have been part of his story.

Rest easy, sweet boy. You were so loved. 🫶🏻
