We are Furever Home!

If you are experiencing behaviour issues including fear, aggression, destruction, barking, pulling on lead, jumping, mouthing or house training that are causing you to consider rehoming your pet, please consider contacting a trainer first. You can contact Dogs In Training at dogsintraining.hamilton@gmail.com or you can find us on Facebook. All training is done on a one-on-one basis, with each program specifically tailored to the dog's issues and the owners level of experience. Fees are very reasonable and dogs requiring multiple sessions receive large discounts. In addition, all follow up email advice is free for life. We train YOU to handle your dog. Don't have the time? We also offer a board and train services and many other options -- we will be as committed to making your pet into a lovable, well behaved member of the family as you are. Email us for a free consultation!

Jasper's Rescue specializes in "special needs" dogs, generally considered to be poor candidates for adoption. Some have medical issues, most have behavioural problems that need to be addressed. Others are simply "past their prime" or just aren't as cute as other dogs out there looking to be rescued - although all dogs are welcome!

Please remember that this does not mean that these animals have any less value as a family member than any other dog. Some, in fact, are highly coveted breeds who are just in need of behavioural modification to correct issues they may be having before being considered suitable candidates for adoption. Others may have certain needs which make them ideal for a particular type of home, but less ideal for others.

Of course, we do not limit ourselves to any one type or group of dog(s). We do, when the situation arises, lean towards those with the greatest need and the lower "adoptability factor." However, we generally have space available, leaving our resources to dictate whether our doors are open or closed.

If you have a dog or parrot in need, please contact us with all pertinent information regarding your pet and the details of your situation. We will respond immediately (within 24 hours) and of course are always available to answer any questions you may have regarding our policies, procedures, screening processes, adoption contracts, training, nutrition and general inquiries.

If you are interested in one of the incredible pets in our care, please read each pet's bio thoroughly, and don't be afraid to email us with any questions you may have about an animal's temperament or medical status. We love to talk about our foster kids!

Donations are always needed, and can be arranged for pick up or drop off by emailing jaspersrescue@gmail.com.
