Lady has been adopted

Meet Lady 🐾

Lady is a 4½-month-old puppy who is half Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever and half English Shepherd. As you might imagine with that mix, she is a busy, smart, and very active girl who is looking for a home ready to keep both her body and mind engaged.

Lady would make a great prospect for dog sports such as agility, barn hunt, scent work, or obedience. She loves activity and will thrive with someone who enjoys training and working with their dog.

Like most young, intelligent pups, Lady still needs to learn the rules and develop good boundaries, but she is very friendly and eager to interact. She enjoys the company of other dogs and brings a lot of enthusiasm wherever she goes.

With the right guidance, structure, and plenty of things to do, Lady is going to grow into a fantastic companion and partner for an active home.

If you’re looking for a fun, energetic puppy to train and adventure with, Lady might be the girl for you! 🐕

Meet Bonnie 💛

Bonnie is a sweet, resilient 1 1/2 - 2½-year-old spayed female who has already overcome more than most dogs ever should. Once a feral stray and heartworm-positive, this brave girl has completed treatment and is now on the path to a long, happy, and healthy life.

Bonnie absolutely adores other dogs and would truly thrive in a home with multiple canine companions. Having dog friends helps her feel confident and secure. She is also kid-friendly and enjoys being part of the family.

She loves treats, toys, and gentle affection — and yes, she enjoys being pet! As she continues to blossom, her loving personality shines brighter every day. Bonnie is smart, observant, and a quick learner once she feels safe.

Because of her past, Bonnie will need:
• A secure privacy fence
• A patient adjustment period
• A crate for nighttime and when left alone (her crate is her safe space)
• An AirTag on her collar at all times for at least the first 6 months we are investigating tracking collars as well.

Bonnie feels safest when she has structure and security. With consistency and kindness, she will reward her family with loyalty, sweetness, and quiet devotion.

If you’re looking for a gentle soul who just needs a little time and a lot of love, Bonnie may be your perfect match. 🐾💕

Bonnie will come with her crate her bedding, her toys, her collars, her leashes, and her bowls

Meet Suki 🌸

Suki is a stunning, spirited girl with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She’s smart, engaged, and loves being part of whatever her people are doing. Whether it’s exploring outdoors, learning something new, or simply staying close to her humans, Suki thrives on connection and partnership.

She is an active, driven dog who will do best in a home that provides structure, daily exercise, and continued training. Enrichment, hiking, obedience work, or dog sports would all be wonderful outlets for her energy and intelligence. Suki truly shines when she has a job and a person to bond with.

Suki will be placed in an adult-only home and cannot live with other female dogs. She needs an experienced, dog-savvy owner who understands leadership, consistency, and clear boundaries.

In return, Suki will give you loyalty, devotion, and a deeply connected partnership. She is a lot of dog in the very best way — bright, engaging, and ready to give her whole heart to the right home.

If you’re experienced and looking for a smart, active companion, Suki may be your perfect match. 🐾💛

Suki has been with a trainer for three weeks and our trainer will be part of her adoption process

ADOPTED✅✅✅✅✅✅✅✅✅Meet Shela!

Currently being fostered in Texas, Shela is a very energetic, fun-loving girl with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life.

She may be more of a Toller look-alike, but don’t let that fool you — this girl absolutely plays the part! She’s smart, active, and always ready for the next adventure.

Shela is what we lovingly call an “escape artist,” so she’ll need a secure yard and a family who understands the importance of management and continued training. She’s clever and curious, and she’ll keep you on your toes — in the best way.

But at the heart of it all, Shela really just wants to be with her people. She thrives on connection and would much rather be by your side than anywhere else. Her energy comes with a deep desire to bond — she’s looking for her humans to love and stick close to.

She would thrive with:
• An active home
• A securely fenced yard
• Ongoing training and structure
• A family who includes her in daily life

Shela is ready to channel all that energy into being someone’s loyal companion. With the right home, she is going to shine. ✨

If you’re interested in learning more about Shela, please visit tollerrescueinc.org and fill out an adoption application on our forms page.

Let’s find this spirited girl her perfect match! 🐾

ADOPTED✅✅✅✅✅✅✅✅✅Meet Maggie (Fern)! 🌿. Maggie we have discovered would prefer to be an only dog. She’s fine walking in a leash but will need some patient, reward based , socialization and classes to help her be successful in all aspects of her life

Maggie is a beautiful, affectionate girl estimated to be about three years old. When she first arrived at the shelter, she appeared to have an old, unhealed leg injury. Thankfully, we’re not seeing any signs of that bothering her now. She has since been spayed, and Toller Rescue Inc. welcomed her into our care.

Maggie is currently thriving in her foster home in the Seattle, Washington area. She’s dog-friendly and enjoys the company of other pups, though her foster siblings would prefer to remain a two-dog household — so Maggie is now ready to find her very own forever home in the Pacific Northwest.

She loves children, aims to please, and truly enjoys being part of the action. Maggie does pull on leash, but with consistency and training (and her eager-to-please personality), this is very manageable. She’s a little bigger than the typical Toller and is currently just under 70 pounds, with a bit more weight she could still shed.

Maggie is a sweet, loyal girl who is ready for a family to call her own.

If you’re interested in giving Maggie the loving home she deserves, please visit tollerrescueinc.org and complete the adoption application found on our Forms page.

Let’s find this special girl her forever family. ❤️
