IMPORTANT - DOBERMAN CARDIAC STUDY INFORMATION

NOTICE - DOBERMAN CHRONIC ACTIVE HEPATITIS STUDY

Note:  I'm sorry if some of these listings are out of date.  I ask people to let me know once the dogs are adopted.   They usually don't.  I don't always have time to keep tracking them down.

Ongoing:

Lucy - 8 year old, black, spayed female.  

Lucy's description from the shelter reads:  Very sweet girl who loves attention - looking forward to lots of exercise & owners who are familiar with the breed. Good with children & other dogs. May require medication for ears and for help with incontinence.  Well trained.

Bowser - 4 year old, black, neutered male.  

The shelter's description reads:  I am a 4 year old Doberman. I originally came to the OSPCA in 2006 through the Investigations department because I was chained up outside an apartment building with no shelter or human contact and getting food tossed at me through a window. I was adopted out and then returned a year later because I could not keep weight on and I was not learning about house breaking. Since I've been back at the shelter I have put some weight on, althoug it has not been easy. I am slowly improving at going to the washroom outside, but I do still have a long way to go. All this can be managed in the right home. I've got a great and lovable personality so I'm well worth the effort! To learn more about me please come to the shelter and speak to the staff.

Phoenix - adult, black, neutered male.  

The rescue group describes him:  We have just taken Phoenix from the shelter and placed him into a foster home. We are so very grateful that the Oshawa shelter was able to care for him and hold him until a foster home could be found. Phoenix is very happy to be out of the shelter! He’s enjoying his runs in our park, but what he really enjoys is spending time with people. He would be best suited to an adult home or a home with older children. More information will become available as his foster home as time to assess him.

Note: TAGS only adopts within the Durham region. Don't complain to me about it, don't expect them to break their rules. They have every right to make their own policies.

Mojo - 4 year old, neutered, blue male.

Mojo is described as a charming boy, excellent with children of all ages, social with dogs and cats. Mojo loves to play with other dogs, but the best time for him is playing ball...could be a future flyball dog!!
