She loves her walks and her treat puzzle toys. She loves playing with her bigger dog and human siblings.

Still cannot believe that Ramses was going to be euthanized.
He was tied up to a tree.. with a bowl.
Nothing else. He would not let a soul near his bowls…

He gained resource guarding because that’s all he had to resource. Only thing he had and.. of coarse in survival. That’s the last thing you want taken away.

He needed patience… guidance and understanding.
He would only allow Melissa the CEO to interact with… the paid trainer was able to open up to him until he lunged at her.
Therefore Melissa came back into play. As you can see. He opened up to her guidance. And let her start touching his bowls while eating… which showed her that he trusted her. She became inviting him into her home and he started regaling human trust.

Ramses was rehomed to a farm. Which we were very careful of the meet and greet but Melissa felt he was ready.

He found his forever home. And we check on him.
He’s currently watching kids jump
Off a river bridge and is all about his company ❤️❤️ (and protecting)

Thank you everyone for helping when you could.
You helped him THRIVE. Melissa just did the cuddles.

🥰🥰🥰

Hi Everyone! Have you fostered and/or adopted a dog through The Big Dog House ? We’d LOVE to hear from you via messenger! Send us a pic of the lucky dog(s) with a caption stating the best part, in your opinion, about your experience. Better yet, send us a short video clip (if you’re not shy!). We would love to share it with everyone.
I became a volunteer after my family fostered, and soon after, adopted Hunter (pic in the comments). I am so glad we found him!!!

Wanted to share something sad but beautiful.
Wanted to share something sad but beautiful.

Hi there, this is Melissa! Our sanctuary protector (KING) is back home. I wanted to share a company that is in Brighton Ontario for pet loss. We usually use Gateway, but we came across another company. These are the amazing services provided. Gateway can be pretty expensive.. this company is VERY fair priced and local. My favorite part of this company is the container given. Sharing this for anyone that needs it in the future🐾🌈🩵 Brighton Memorial Cremations Ontario Canada Also special thank you to Port Hope Animal Emergency Clinic for the extra things like the hair clippings and nose and paw print cards. (Those did not include with the Brighton services) only the Clay version was from Brighton!

Oakley still needs a foster!!! Unfortunately we are still looking for a suitable foster home for her!!! Once we have her in a foster home we can have her spayed and adopted!!!
Oakley still needs a foster!!! Unfortunately we are still looking for a suitable foster home for her!!! Once we have her in a foster home we can have her spayed and adopted!!!

Oakley is 2.5 years old and great with kids and cats! She has been rehomed due to not agreeing with her elder brother which is a small breed animal. The exception to understanding her recent behaviour changes may have to do with the owner being pregnant and Oakley senses that and tries to protect her mama. Other than that she is very sweet mannered and still a puppy! House trained and a cuddle muffin! Go to our website at www.thebigdoghouseontario.com and click foster to apply!

Our Mission.

We are here, not to make money.. we are here to give dogs another chance at a better life. Whether they were in a bad situation or just need a better situation than they are in now.

Our kennel is both Profit & Non-Profit as we make profit from our dog boarding and daycare services however, when we take in a dog and have it surrendered to us, we lose income due to give these dogs a stall to board until they find a home. We also try very hard to keep our rescues in our reach instead of sending them out to foster homes so that we can minimalize their interaction with so many different environments and people. Our staff all have medical backgrounds in Animal Medicine. Some work in vet clinics and some have vet clinic experience. We have designed to make this place as comfortable as we can for all the dogs. we have a TV, a fireplace, couches and the property is fully fenced. We have no cages here.. we have designed wooden stalls designed to keep the dogs safe and secure.

We strive to help all animals.. and whenever someone adopts from us. If they ever feel the need to board with us.. we offer a 50% discount to the new fur parent to be able to keep in contact with rescues and we get to reconnect with everyone!

Thank you for all your support in helping us grow and giving more dogs chances of having a better fulfilled life.
