Fred's Story

*Version française ci-dessous* Meet handsome Fred, who will be joining our NDDR family as soon as the right foster or foster-to-adopt family is found. Fred is a two-year old GSD who weighs approximately 75 pounds. He is an anxious dog who will need a calm and child-free environment. He has a tendency to bark at people out of fear, but with an experienced family who will be patient and will help him work through his insecurities, we know that Fred will thrive and will overcome a lot of his fears. We are looking for someone who understands his breed well and will have the time to stimulate him both physically and mentally. We are hoping to find Fred his BFF! They will be lucky to be loved by this loyal boy! To learn more about Fred or to fill out a foster or foster-to-adopt application, please contact us via Petfinder or send an email to adoptions@nddr.ca ?? Voici le beau Fred, qui rejoindra notre famille NDDR dès que la bonne famille d’accueil (ou famille d’accueil qui aimerait adopter après une période d’essai) sera trouvée. Fred est un berger allemand de deux ans qui pèse environ 75 livres. C’est un chien anxieux qui aura besoin d’un environnement calme et sans enfant. Il a tendance à aboyer sur les gens par peur, mais avec une famille expérimentée qui sera patiente, nous savons que Fred s’épanouira et surmontera beaucoup de ses peurs. Nous recherchons quelqu’un qui comprend bien sa race et qui aura le temps de le stimuler physiquement et mentalement. Nous espérons trouver un meilleur ami pour Fred ! Ils auront de la chance d’être aimés par ce garçon fidèle ! Pour en savoir plus sur Fred ou pour remplir notre formulaire de famille d’accueil (ou une famille qui aimerait adopter après une période d’essai), veuillez nous contacter via Petfinder ou envoyer un courriel à adoptions@nddr.ca

New Day Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

Our adoption process begins with our application form, which we send to potential adopters at their request. We also ask them to send pictures of their home and yard with the completed form, to allow us to confirm that the environment is suitable for a dog. Once the application form and photos are received and accepted, we begin by checking the applicant's references - our application requires them to provide a minimum of two personal references who are not family members, plus a veterinarian reference). We then schedule a telephone call with one or both of our rescue's co-founders to discuss their application and the dog(s) that interested them. If this call goes well and both the applicant and our founder(s) want to continue, we schedule a meeting for the applicant and the dog they are hoping to adopt. (One of our co-founders will also at this meeting, or one of a few trusted volunteers.) If everyone agrees to proceed at this point, the dog will go for a trial period at the applicant's home. These trials are a minimum of two weeks, and require the applicant to remain in communication with us, and send pictures and photos to let us know how things are progressing. One week after the dog has arrived, we schedule an update call to check in and discuss how things are going. We do this again at two weeks, at which point, if everyone agrees that it is a good match, we proceed with our adoption contract to officialize the adoption. In some cases, with dogs who have special needs or with dogs who are fearful, we will choose to extend the adoption trial to allow enough time for adaptation and reflection on whether or not the applicant is able to give the dog everything they need, and whether or not our dog will flourish there. In cases where the adoption trial is not successful, we relocate the dog to another suitable foster home as soon as possible.

Our Mission
