🖤ADOPT JOAN JETT🖤

F | 2Y | 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 | Instagram: | 353 days in care

Joanie can be excitable when meeting new people, often jumping and pulling on the leash. Due to her playful energy, she may not be the best fit for a home with small children. Older kids who can help manage her excitement and join in on training could be a good fit! She prefers calm dogs that match her energy and is still working on staying cool around more excitable pups.

Joanie thrives on routine and structure. She’s not the snuggliest, but loves being near her people, whether it’s chilling in the same room or hanging out nearby while you’re busy. With training, she’s grown into a confident, balanced pup who knows how to have fun and relax when it’s time to wind down.

Joanie can be excitable when meeting new people, often jumping and pulling on the leash. Because of her playful energy, she might not be the best fit for a home with small children. Older kids who can help manage her excitement and join in on training could be a good fit! She prefers calm dogs that match her energy and is still working on staying cool around more excitable pups.

Joan’s ideal home is one with a good mix of playtime, mental stimulation, and chill moments. She does best in a calm environment with clear routines. A home that’s too chaotic or has overly energetic dogs might overwhelm her. Once she’s had a chance to run around and burn off that energy, she’s happy to settle down and relax.

Joan is housebroken, crate-trained, and knows basic commands like sit, stay, and place. She’s working on intermediate commands and loves a good challenge during training. Her playful spirit and eagerness to learn make her a joy to be around.

If you're looking for a fun, energetic pup who’s always up for an adventure, Joanie might just be the perfect match for you. She’s ready for a family that can keep up with her energy and give her the structure she needs to thrive.

Ok y'all, this super sweet boy is about to hit 1 year in foster care in less than 2 weeks. Please share this post so we can find him a home before then!

🖤ADOPT NETO🖤
M | 5Y | 33.5 KG | Mixed Breed | UTD on shots | Neutered | Dog tested | NO CATS | Great with Kids | Medium energy | Crate trained | Housebroken | Fully Obedience Trained | E-Collar Conditioned | Loves a good cuddle | Fostered in London | 349 days in care

Our best pal Neto is a sugary-sweet sweetheart filled with a lively and energetic spirit. He enjoys his time running around like a lovable goofy ball but adores a good cuddle sess! He is a cuddler, he is a snuggler, he is a lover. Some may say he is a NEAT-O addition to the family!

Make way world because Neto is coming out of his shell! Exploration and investigation run fiercely through his veins as he thoroughly enjoys his time in new environments. A peaceful hike to let the curious soul run wild, what more could you ask for! He takes a gentle approach when meeting your new human friends but warms up to them quick!

They say food is a way to a man's heart and Neto is no exception! Have a yummy snack? Neto is all ears! As a treat fanatic, it can be used as a great reward system for training! He has shown some prey drive in foster care, and we recommend a home without cats for this reason.

In his current foster home, Neto is neutral and respectful towards children when passing by on his strolls. With further boundary setting and introductions, it is possible Neto can be a real bestie to your young ones. Neto would do best with a calm dog that respects his space. However, he will need the right guidance to properly befriend a new dog.

Our friendly, social boy would do best in a quieter home. Neto loves a nice quiet space but is doing really well getting over his fear of loud noises.

🐾 Forever Fosters Matter 🐾

Our Forever Foster Program exists so that dogs with medical or behavioural needs can live out their golden years in a loving home—without the financial burden on the family who opens their heart to them. 💛

Take Chief, for example. At his recent check-up, his blood work showed signs of anemia. We dug deeper and found suspicious lesions on his spleen. Thankfully, the amazing team at Lakeview Animal Hospital fit him in for an emergency splenectomy 💉 and he’s now recovering comfortably with his devoted foster mama and her kiddos. 🐶💤

Our rescue covered:
✔️ His annual exam
✔️ All diagnostic testing
✔️ His surgery
✔️ Lab analysis on the lesions
✔️ All post-op care

This is the kind of support your donations make possible. 💸
If you'd like to contribute towards Chief's medical bill, it is currently sitting at $2,500

If you’re able, please consider donating to help us continue giving dogs like Chief the chance to heal in a home full of love.

You can donate:
1. via zeffy https://www.zeffy.com/donation-form/c7c99198-9ef4-40e6-b116-cbbd35b6fb17

2. via e-transfer to [email protected]

Once again - some thank you's:
Kristen - the love you have for not only Chief, but all the animals has always shown brightly. You're such a kind, patient and compassionate woman. We're so grateful to have you as a part of our team. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our boy!
Robyn - you already know how much of a rockstar you are. Thank you so much for constantly being so on the ball with making sure all the animals in our care's veterinary needs are met, and moving mountains to ensure Chief got what he needed ASAP.

Dr. Chris, and the wonderful team at for always going above and beyond for all the BATM kids, and loving them as though they were your own! We're so grateful to have such an awesome team helping us ensure our dogs thrive in their second chance at life!

🖤ADOPT PRIM🖤
F | 3Y | 50 KG | Great Dane | spayed | UTD on shots | Housebroken | Crate Trained | Knows basic commands | Good with dogs her size with proper introductions | Not kid tested | Not cat tested | Fostered in London, ON | 109 days in care

Don't be scared by her size, Prim is the Greatest dog a person could have! Prim is very sweet and loves her humans. She may be a little nervous at first, but Prim is gaining confidence every day!

Prim is an active girl and loves the outdoors. She isn't a couch potato - she likes playing outside too much! - but Prim is always up for a good cuddle once she gets her exercise in. Prim is also very food-motivated, which makes training sessions fun for her!

Prim can be nervous around new settings and humans, but once she trusts you, she begins to relax. Prim would do well in a home with a dog her size after proper introductions. Prim has not met any kids but may do better in a quiet household with little traffic.

Prim's forever family should know that she will need plenty of time to adjust to a new environment and will thrive with a patient, slow-paced approach. If you're looking for a fun-loving and affectionate companion, Prim is ready to fill your days with joy and adventure! With her sweet nature, there's no doubt that Prim will become your best friend!

There is an individual who has been attacking us, our founder personally & many other businesses in the area. We’ve chosen to block & move forward. If I felt the conversation would be productive, here’s what I would say:

Hello Izzy B’s Pet Services!

I’ve seen your recent posts regarding my work and felt it was important to respond respectfully, but clearly.

First, it’s misleading to suggest that balanced trainers “slap an aversive on every dog.” That’s not only inaccurate, it’s a misrepresentation of what balanced training is. A prong collar or any training tool is just that—a tool. When used appropriately and humanely, it becomes a means of communication, not punishment. And the suggestion that every dog is treated the same way under my care simply isn’t true. Every dog receives a plan tailored to their individual temperament, history, and behavior.

Second, rescue dogs are not blank slates. Many arrive with trauma, fear-based behaviors, or high arousal and drive. Limiting our approach to one quadrant of learning—positive reinforcement alone—often does a disservice to dogs who need more clarity and structure to succeed in the real world. We don’t just train for tricks or treats. We train for safety, predictability, and long-term success in adoptive homes.

The claim that our methods are rooted in punishment is both unfounded and unprofessional. My work is guided by a deep respect for dogs, a clear understanding of behavioral science, and a commitment to helping them become stable, adoptable companions. That includes boundaries, structure, and yes, tools—used thoughtfully.

You’re welcome to advocate for your approach. But attacking other trainers by name, and accusing them of harming animals without firsthand knowledge, is not how progress is made in the dog training community. My focus will remain on the dogs—because they are the reason I do this work.

—Shelby
