🖤ADOPT SALOMON 🖤

M | 7Y | 22.7 KG | Neutered | Housebroken | Good with dogs | No cats | Not kid tested | Fostered in Kitchener

Lovely Salomon is a gentle, sweet fellow with a noble heart, ready to take on the world one paw at a time! Salomon is beginning to come out of his shell and would love a family to help him become the confident doggo he can be.

Salomon is a versatile companion. He is equally at home, snuggled up with you or exploring the great outdoors. He enjoys walks and hikes but is content with spending a quiet day at home, lounging and watching the world around him.

A little shy at first, it takes Salomon a quick moment to warm up to new human friends. But once he does, they are immediately best friends! Salomon has become best buds with his two foster doggo-siblings. Their relationship is extra special because Salomon respects their space, and they do the same for him. His furever dog brother or sister will need to show the same respect to best compliment Salomon. He has seen kids from a distance and didn't show much interest. With proper guidance and structure, we think he could do well with kiddos in the home. However, Salomon is not a fan of cats.

Salomon's sensitive nature means he gets a little spooked by loud noises. He needs a confident family to help him learn that these things are not so scary. Salomon is currently working on getting used to his crate and will need a family who is comfortable working through some separation anxiety with him, which is already improving with his foster family!

With tons of love and cuddles to give, Salomon is the best pal anyone could ask for. He is truly a gem, ready to meet his family, who will help him shine! Could that be you? Adopt Salomon today and be the lucky ones to have him in your life!

🖤ADOPT PANDORA🖤

F | 5Y | 23 KG | Mixed breed | Spayed | UTD on shots | Housebroken | Crate Trained | Good with dogs | Cat tested | Not kid tested | Fostered in London

Pandora’s name tells you it all—just like in Greek mythology, she is a gorgeous maiden who is seen as a gift to everyone. This doggo melts hearts like ice cream on a hot summer day! With tons of affection to share, she is eagerly looking for her forever home to shower in cuddles.

This active girl loves to go for walks and learn neat tricks. She enjoys being mentally stimulated, whether with fun toys or a day of play.

A bit introverted, Pandora needs some time to warm up to others (furry friends and humans alike). She is curious to meet other dogs but needs the right support and introductions to truly befriend them. Similar to people, Pandora would prefer you introduce her to your human friends outside the home to calm her nerves.

Pandora still struggles with her fear of noises, this is something to be mindful of while you work together to help her become comfortable with 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.

Playful Pandora needs a family to help her navigate this crazy world and give her the patience and training she needs to thrive. With proper structure and boundary setting, she will surely shine!

🖤FOSTER-TO-ADOPT CRAIG🖤

M | 9W | Domestic Short Hair | Good with dogs | Not cat tested | Not kid tested | High energy | Playful | Social | Fostered in London

Meet Craig! Our snuggly, affectionate baby boi is on a quest to find his furever family to love the heck out of! This easy-to-love fella is sweet like candy and the bestest buddy anyone could ask for.

Craig is a social butterfly! He adores meeting new people and is always ready to greet your friends with a warm welcome and plenty of cuddles. His outgoing and friendly nature makes him a perfect companion for anyone looking for a furry friend.

Craig is a bundle of energy, always ready for a good time! He’ll spend his afternoons recharging his batteries with a nice nap, but come morning and evening, he’s all about play. Whether it’s with humans, his toys, or anything that catches his eye, Craig is here for a good game of play, hunt, or chase. He’ll show his mouse toys who’s boss and impress you with his climbing skills as he dominates his cat towers. If you say ‘play,’ Craig is all ears!

While Craig’s energy can lead to classic mischievous kitty behaviours, such as biting on wires and knocking over things, with the right guidance and plenty of love, he can improve in these aspects. This means that with your care and attention, you can help Craig become the best version of himself.

Craig hasn’t had the chance to meet human kiddos yet. However, with the proper guidance, he could form strong bonds with children. Similarly, Craig hasn’t had the pleasure of meeting a fellow kitty, but we believe—with the appropriate support—that he may benefit from a feline friend to play with! Craig has had the fantastic chance to hang out with two doggos while with his babysitter, and he gets along great with them! With more guided and gentle exposure to the canine world, it is possible Craig will be making new dog friends left, right and center.

With an adventurous soul, Craig adores exploring new nooks and crannies of your home. His curiosity and zest for life make him the perfect companion, adding a touch of excitement and joy into everyday!

🖤ADOPT HOWARD🖤

M | 2Y | 24.2 KG | Mixed Breed | Neutered | UTD on shots | Good with dogs | Brief Interaction with Cats | Kid tested | Hip Dysplasia | Easy-going | Playful | Fostered in Burlington

Meet Howard!

You can find this good boy swimming at the beach or chilling with his humans. Howard loves walks around the neighbourhood, but only short ones. Long walks around the block get too boring for him. He loves the excitement of long hikes, where he gets to show you what he is made of!

Howard is a Zoomie expert with short bursts of energy. With this liveliness, he needs help with spatial awareness and going down stairs. Yet, with a family to guide and support him, he can improve in these areas and become an even more amazing companion.

Howard is on a special diet that helps keep his tummy happy, and we’d recommend that he stay on this moving forward. He also got to meet one of our orthopedic specialists for his hip dysplasia and knees! Howard told them that he was feeling great, and the doctors agreed that there are no reasons to be concerned.

As the sweet youngster he is, Howard can sometimes have puppy sillies, which include mouthing your arms and taking cool things that look like toys. We found the best way to deal with this is to trade him for actual doggy toys to keep him playful.

This lady’s man warms up to female hoomans right away. But, it takes him a few minutes to shake off his nervousness around adult males. Howard has met kids on walks and did okay, so it is possible, with more gentle exposure and guidance, he could befriend other little ones. Howard has been neutral towards other dogs but wants to play with them at the dog park. Therefore, through boundary-setting and love, we think he’d be a great companion for another dog. Howard has had brief interactions with cats but lives with a small dog. With good human support, Howard may do well with fellow felines.

Our cheerful Howard is waiting to find a family that will love him with all their hearts. Adopt Howard today and be the lucky one to have him in your life!

🖤FOSTER-TO-ADOPT JUNO🖤

F | 5Y | 31.2 KG | Mixed breed | Crate Trained | Good with dogs | No cats | Not kid tested | Medium Energy | Affectionate | Fostered in Sarnia

Bubbly. Loving. Joyful.

These are just a few of the words that come to mind when we think of our queen, Juno! She’s an adorable goofball who adores the company of good humans and is on the lookout for her forever peeps to join her on this rollercoaster we call life! Her playful nature will surely bring delight to your home.
A day of play, a nice long walk, or a short stroll will surely win her heart! This gentle giant is the most affectionate four-legged friend you will ever meet!
She loves her foster dog siblings, so, with proper introductions, she should do well with other doggy siblings. However, she did not see eye-to-eye with her foster cat sibling, so she is not recommended to have another feline companion in the future. Juno loves to meet brand new humans, but she requires ongoing training on her greeting manners.
Some may call it stubborn, but Juno just knows what she wants. She can sometimes be clumsy, but that is one of her beautiful quirks! With excitement to spare, Juno gets super proud of herself when she does what she is told! Her energy is infectious, but sometimes, this excitement can turn into some leash pulling, and she’ll need a family who is willing to continue working on this with her!
Let Juno’s shiny, bubbly energy fill your life with eternal happiness! She’s looking for a loving family to bring her into their home for a furreverrrr fun time!

🖤ADOPT BLUES🖤

Blue's just finished a board and train with our friend who will continue to work with his adoptive home to ensure he is set up for success

M | 5Y | 29 KG | Mixed Breed | Neutered | UTD on shots | Housebroken | Good with dogs | cat tested | Likely good with dog savvy kids | Fostered in London, ON

After spending the last 5 years of his life working for an industrial sled dog operation, Blues is ready to kick up his paws and enjoy retirement! He acts just like a puppy in many ways and is very happy-go-lucky.

Blues loves being around his people and will never say no to hugs and kisses. He would love to be your shadow all day if you let him! Blues may not understand the intricacies of a new environment, but he's happy to be along for the ride. His ideal day would include lots of cuddles and some high-energy activities like running or chasing.

Blues has made lots of progress acclimating to an indoor space and is no longer afraid of the stairs, tile floors, or reflective surfaces! Despite difficulties with crate training and basic obedience training, Blues has been trying his best and is great at recall. Blues has also had some issues with resource guarding but is getting better with consistent encouragement and the guarantee of a safe space with a closed door during food time.

As Blues is not big on crate training, he has broken out of his crate on a few occasions. Because of his love for inanimate objects, Blues will inhale the first object in his reach when bored and alone, which means he needs to be watched closely by his forever family. Blues has had medical complications related to this but is now feeling much better. As long as Blues is monitored, he is the sweetest boy you could ever meet!

Blues is currently fostered with two doggy siblings and is great at interacting with them. He is very comfortable with the pack dynamic and being with his siblings has helped build his confidence! He has not met any kids but judging from his instant affection around new people, he may do well with dog-savvy kids. He has also not met any cats.

We get it; rules are not fun!
They are, however, put into place for a reason.

It is important to set the new dog entering your home up for success. Structures, boundaries, and limitations are the foundation of creating an environment for your foster dog to thrive in. It is important to remember that fostering is the transitioning period; you are the middle grown from their past life to their future!

We are so grateful for all our fosters; we couldn’t do this without them!

🖤FOSTER or FOSTER-TO-ADOPT NETO🖤
M | 4Y | 28.3 KG | Mixed Breed | UTD on shots | Neutered | Dog selective | NO CATS | Not kid tested | Medium energy | Crate trained | Housebroken | Playful | Loves a good cuddle | Fostered in London

Neto, the gentle giant, is ready to meet his forever home! This smart and affectionate boy is bound to take over your heart with just one look. Neto will sit with his face in your lap and eye you until you pet him; that's how much he enjoys being next to you!

Neto loves his food and is very food-motivated. This has helped him pick up a few basic commands in just a few days! His calm nature also makes it easy for you to put on his leash and bathe him. Neto's still learning how to play, but with an introduction, he'll turn out to be a real goofball who loves fetch!

An ideal day for Neto would have lots of mental stimulation and training. He loves treats and puzzle toys, making him a great candidate to learn quite a few tricks. He enjoys being outside but gets very nervous about moving vehicles (including bikes and scooters) and will need a confident owner who is good at setting and maintaining boundaries until he's settled in. He will pull on his leash when he's anxious, but he has improved tons with aids like a prong collar and a gentle leader. It wouldn't hurt for his day to end with lots of cuddles with his forever family and a few treats, too.

Neto has a prey drive and would do well in a household with no cats or small animals. He's met a few dogs while on walks and prefers dogs who respect his space (we don't like strangers up in our space, either!). He would do well with a calm and confident doggy sibling who can also be respectful of his space until they get comfy with each other! Neto hasn't met any children before but should do well with dog-savvy kids. He's been great at meeting adults who are calm and friendly.

Neto's ideal forever family would live in a quieter area and would be confident in their ability to help him through his nervousness and reactivity outside! If you're ready for an intelligent and loving dog to join your family, then Neto is the one for you! You'll never have a lonely day with Neto by your side.

If you’re looking for a life full of fun, love, and smiles, you can stop looking now and fill out an application because this lovely girl has a lifetime supply!

She can be shy at first, but it doesn’t take long to see the rockstar waiting patiently to shine with her furrever family! She loves people with a passion that comes out in unstoppable bum wiggles.

Joan Jett needs a family who will provide structure and work through basic training with her. She already knows sit and is eager to learn more!

She’s a bit of an introvert around other dogs, but with proper introductions, she’d do well in a family with other dogs. She hasn’t met any cats yet, but she’d likely do well as long as boundaries are set and proper introductions are provided. She is currently getting over kennel cough and will need some space and time prior to introductions as well.

Joan Jett is ready to rock with her forever bandmates!
Think you have what it takes??

It's our founder's birthday! 💞
For those of you who are new here, This is Shelby (affectionately known as Shelbo); she is the woman who started it all here at BATM.

Shelby has the biggest heart. She works day in and day out for these animals. Giving them the best opportunity for a second chance at life. She’s the one driving all hours of the night whether it’s to the emergency vet or picking up dogs from the airport or emergency local intakes. She’s the one making sure our behavioural cases get a fair chance at a proper reset. She’s the one driving hours on end to local shelters or flying to Mexico to volunteer her time, expertise and lend a helping hand. She's the one on call 24/7 for our dogs and cats. She’s the glue that keeps the BATM team together.

Because of her, we have managed to save over 300 animals locally and internationally in the last 3 years of becoming a rescue. She is always encouraging us to be kind, be thoughtful, and do the best job we can. She is so supportive, so understanding and so loving. She pours her heart and soul into BATM. We definitely couldn’t do all of this without her.

Today is Shelby’s day…her 31st birthday. And the BATM team is trying to make this year’s birthday her best one yet. But…we need your help!

How can you help?
1️⃣ Apply to foster, foster to adopt, or adopt with BATM
2️⃣ share our dogs! We have so many amazing dogs who’ve been waiting for months to find their forever home. You never know who may be on your friend's list who’s ready for a new companion!
3️⃣ DONATE! We are in major need of monetary donations; every dollar helps, the littlest bit goes a long way! We are really STRUGGLING to raise money right now. Donations can be sent to [email protected]

Shelby will get an email and notification for all the above plans of action. Help us blow up her phone today by filling out an app, or sending us a donation. Let’s show her the same love and support that she endlessly gives to these animals and her team members.

Happy 31st Birthday Shelbo!

Love,
Your Little Rescue That Could, The BATM Team & BATM Animals🖤💜

🤍 TOM IS SEEKING A FOREVER FOSTER 🤍

What does that mean?
When you agree to forever foster a dog with BATM, all medical bills are covered by the rescue. We supply you with everything you need in terms of pet supplies - all we ask is that you give them a comfortable place to live out the rest of their days.

We currently have 2 dogs in our forever foster program:the.star who is a medical case, and .the.batmrescuedog who is a behavioural case.

Tom, is a dog that we cannot in good conscious deem adoptable as in the 8 months we’ve had him, he’s continued to have health complications. We would prefer to be able to provide for all his medical needs while he gets to live out the rest of his days with a family whose pure dedication is to loving him and taking care of him - without the financial burden of costly medical bills.

TOM | 4y | 27kg | Kid Tested | Dog Tested | Not tested with cats

What Tom Loves:
- His people!
- Lounging in the shade
- Fashion accessories
- Riding in the car
- Showing off his smarts with his training skills!

What Tom needs:
- Continued support with leash reactivity (excitement on leash)
- UV shirt anytime he is out in the daylight (even on cloudy days)
- Outside time in the shade (avoid the sun when possible)
- Weekly baths
- Regular massages to check for any lumps
- Vet checks as needed when lumps are found (at our clinic in Mississauga)

A foster close to Mississauga who is able to drive would be ideal, but we can accommodate anywhere within our foster region (Toronto - London)

If you can open your heart and home up to Tom, please fill out a foster application 🤍

🖤FOSTER-TO-ADOPT BINGO🖤

M | 11M | 20 KG | Mixed Breed | Neutered | UTD on shots | Dog tested | No cats | Kid tested | Silly | Adaptable | Fostered in London

You don't need a five-in-a-row on your playing card to find the most lovable, silly buddy to light up your world. We have the number one dog waiting for you! And B-I-N-G-O is his name!

That's right—we are calling the ultimate Bingo! Beaming Bingo is a fanatic of good belly rubs and good times! Ready to challenge you to a game of tug-of-war, Bingo is the companion you are looking for!

His versatility makes him a shining gem as a pet. He's equally happy chilling at home, cuddling up after a long day, or basking in the sun outside. But he also enjoys exercise, walks, and outdoor play. He's making great progress with his training, including basic commands and leash manners, showing his adaptability to different environments!

With a sprinkle of extraversion, Bingo loves the attention in the home and outside! When out in public, he will try to get the attention of fellow hoomans passing by. However, at home, he prefers visitors to kindly approach him.

Bingo is super curious about human kiddos. We have seen him warm up to respectful and gentle children in the past. With more guidance and help, it is possible we can befriend more youngsters. He did great with his past foster dog sibling, but that only translates to some canines. Bingo is indifferent to other dogs out of their stroll, while larger pooches give him the shivers. He will need a family that supports him through other doggy relationships so that he can potentially do well with future doggo brothers or sisters. While he hasn't had the pleasure of meeting a cat yet, with proper boundary setting and supervision, there is a chance he can make new awesome kitty friends.

In tune with his sensitive side, our lovely boi gets nervous around loud noises and other barking dogs. He has a tendency to flinch when approaching his face. Therefore, his forever humans will need to treat this area with extra special care and work on getting him comfortable with head touches.

Overall, Bingo is just happy to be here, and he would be even happier with his forever humans! Structure and boundaries are not just important but crucial for any doggo to thrive, and that's no different for Bingo. His forever humans will need to be committed to providing him with the necessary structure and boundaries for him to excel.

02/08/2024

As the long weekend approaches, and I've insisted my amazing team log off and enjoy some downtime with their loved ones, I'd like to take a quick moment to chat with you all about something that's been upsetting me the last couple of weeks.

You see, I've got this incredible group of volunteers who show up day in and day out; out of the kindness of their hearts and the pure love and devotion for the very lives we're striving to make an impact for. We celebrate them internally and make sure they feel loved and appreciated - but over the past couple of weeks, we've had SEVERAL instances where my management team or I have had to step in because applicants or the general public have been... well... incredibly unkind.

I will not get into details, as there have been too many incidents to count lately.
However, seeing my amazing volunteers feeling hurt, defeated, and overwhelmed like this.. it sucks y'all. The job itself is hard enough as is.
You see, every single one of us volunteers our time, including me, around our full-time jobs and busy schedules. We don't do this for a paycheck; our paycheck is seeing the animals we work so hard to save thrive in their new lives.

What you don't see is the absolute heartbreak that we all endure daily.
I've been volunteering in rescue for 10 years now, and I can genuinely say I've never seen it this bad. We are living in very trying times, and it is alarming to see what so many families and so many animals are currently enduring.

I understand that BATM has policies and procedures that, to some, may seem unreasonable or strict. Every foster rule, every adoption non-negotiable requirement - they're not put into place to make anything difficult, but rather to keep our animals, as well as your family, safe.

Every decision we make as an organization is for the protection and safety of the dogs and cats in our care. We take their success in their new lives very seriously, and seeing them thrive from the moment they come into our care far into their newly adopted lives is very important to us.

Now, I ask you.
Please, for the love of dog, be kind to my team.

Sincerely, one very exhausted founder.
xoxo Shelbo
