TRI wants to extend a huge thank you to everyone who purchased tickets for our raffle! ❤️
We sold 89 of the 150 available tickets, and every ticket purchased helped raise much-needed funds to support the dogs in our care and further the mission of Toller Rescue Inc.
Your continued support allows us to say yes when Tollers need us—whether that means veterinary care, transportation, fostering, rehabilitation, training, or helping a dog get safely into the right home. We truly could not do what we do without you.
Please stay tuned—we’re hoping to bring you more fun raffles like this one in the near future!
And don’t forget about our annual TRI auction! This year’s dates have not yet been finalized. Like everyone, our volunteers sometimes have real-life responsibilities and challenges that need our attention, all while we continue dedicating our time and energy to rescue. We’ll share the dates as soon as everything comes together.
Thank you for supporting TRI, supporting rescue, and most importantly, supporting the dogs. 🐾❤️

🐾 Meet Bear and Panda! 🐾
These handsome eight-year-old cousins are located in the Fayetteville, Arkansas, area. They have been together since they were puppies and are a deeply bonded pair, so they must be adopted together.
Bear and Panda currently enjoy a spacious fenced-in yard, where they love spending their days, and come inside in the evenings to relax with their family. They are good with cats and have done well with children.
Panda experiences some pain and takes gabapentin, so a home with very young children who may not understand or respect a dog’s boundaries would require careful supervision—or may not be the best fit for him.
Both boys are:
• Up to date on vaccinations
• Heartworm-negative
• Receiving regular flea prevention
• Taking joint supplements
Toller Rescue Inc. is assisting their family with an owner-supported placement. Their current owners will help us choose the perfect family for Bear and Panda, but the adoption will be completed through Toller Rescue Inc.
Their family is moving to a condo and the transition would be difficult for the two of them as they’re used to having their space so the family has opted to try to find them a better situation.
If you are interested in welcoming this wonderful pair into your family, please reach out to us for more information or to request an adoption application. Please help us share their story! ❤️ #tollerlove #toller #tollerretriever #tollerpuppies #tollersofinsta

This morning I woke up feeling grateful.
Many of you know that I serve as the Rescue Coordinator for Toller Rescue Inc. In December 2024, we received a call about six loose Tollers in Okmulgee, Oklahoma. We quickly learned that this wasn’t going to be a simple rescue. The dogs already knew how to avoid traps, and despite everyone’s best efforts, we faced challenge after challenge.
On New Year’s Day, an incredible woman from Tulsa named Tina joined the effort. She has dedicated herself to trapping lost dogs, reuniting them with their families, and helping rescues like ours. She and her husband went above and beyond, even building custom traps that ultimately helped us catch Bonnie and Clyde. It took nearly a year and a half to finally bring Bonnie to safety.
Last week, the final Oklahoma dog went to their forever home, bringing this remarkable chapter to a close.
Along the way, we gained so much more than rescued dogs. We gained friendships, an extended family, and an amazing network of adopters stretching from the Canadian border in Vermont to Rhode Island, Maryland, Northern California, Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and so many places in between. It has truly been an incredible journey.
I’m especially excited that Tina has graciously accepted the role of TRI Oklahoma. She and her entire family have become such an important part of our rescue, helping with trapping, transporting, and doing whatever was needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to our team.
Today, instead of focusing on all the craziness in the world, I just wanted to focus on gratitude.
Thank you to Sue Jones for inviting me to join this amazing organization. Thank you to Laurel White, who was one of the first people to recognize that Toller Rescue Inc. was needed to help Tollers of unknown origin, mixes and great imposters. Thank you to Tamra for her unwavering dedication as our Treasurer. And thank you to Lily Renee Hamilton, our young Secretary from Wisconsin, who has brought fresh energy, enthusiasm, and new ideas to this wonderful group of “seasoned” rescue ladies.
I also want to extend my heartfelt thanks to every one of our foster homes, trainers, transporters, veterinarians, behavior specialists, and volunteers. You are the ones who help these dogs heal, decompress, learn to trust again, and prepare for their forever homes. This year, we’ve had some particularly challenging dogs who needed months of patience, specialized training, and time to simply decompress before they were ready for adoption. Because of your dedication, those dogs were given the chance they deserved, and their futures are brighter because of you.
Most of all, thank you to every donor, adopter, volunteer, and supporter who has been part of this journey. Rescue is not for the faint of heart. It can be heartbreaking, exhausting, and incredibly frustrating. But it is also one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever had the privilege to be part of.
This morning I simply woke up feeling fulfilled…and very, very grateful.
Thank you for being part of our village. ❤️

Dexx has been adopted.
We have a family who has been waiting. They’ve been approved for months and he’s just the perfect fit for them so I wanna thank everybody for their applications, but Dex has found his perfect home.
Meet Dexx! ❤️
Dexx is an 8-month-old neutered male who is up to date on all his vaccinations and ready to find the loving family he deserves.
When Dexx first arrived at the shelter, he was very underweight and had clearly not been given the care or love every puppy deserves. Since then, he’s been thriving with good food, attention, and affection—and his sweet personality has absolutely won everyone over. He currently weighs about 38 pounds and appears to be a Toller mix.
Dexx has been at the shelter for a couple of weeks, and he’s quickly become a staff favorite. He’s friendly with other dogs, enjoys people, and is just the sweetest little guy. We aren’t sure how he does with cats yet.
📍 Located in Kentucky, but transport to Pennsylvania can be arranged for the right home.
If you’ve been looking for a young, loving companion who is ready for a fresh start, Dexx may be the perfect match. Please reach out if you’re interested in giving this wonderful boy the forever home he deserves!
Please share to help Dexx find his family! 🐾 #family‼️ #family #tollerrescue #toller rescue #tollerrescueinc

Meet Gunner!
Gunner is a handsome young boy who, at best, is a Toller mix—but quite likely he’s just a really good look-alike! Whatever his breed mix may be, he’s 100% adorable and full of personality.
At just over one year old, Gunner is looking for an active family who can give him the time, exercise, and attention he deserves.
🐾 Great with kids
🐾 Good with other dogs
🐾 Crate trained
🐾 Loves to play and has lots of energy
🐾 Up to date on vaccinations
🐾 Heartworm negative
🐾 Neutered
Gunner weighs @ 55 lbs
Gunner is very interested in cats and likes to chase them because he wants to play, not because he wants to hurt them. Unfortunately, some cats don’t appreciate his enthusiasm, so a home without cats—or with very dog-savvy cats and careful introductions—would probably be the best fit.
His family loves him dearly, but changes in work schedules mean Gunner is spending too much time in his crate and not getting the exercise and attention he needs. They’ve made the difficult and loving decision to find him a home where he can truly thrive.
Gunner is a happy, affectionate, energetic young dog who would love a family ready for adventures, walks, games of fetch, and plenty of cuddles.
📍 Located in Boonsboro, Maryland
📅 Age: Just over 1 year old
If you think Gunner might be the perfect addition to your family, please reach out to learn more about this sweet boy! 🐾❤️

Meet Wilma ❤️
Wilma is a 10-year-old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever looking for a very special home.
Sadly, Wilma’s owner recently passed away, and we are working closely with her sister to help this sweet girl find the loving home she deserves.
Wilma is paralyzed in her rear legs, but don’t let that fool you—she still has plenty of love to give. We are currently helping arrange a set of wheels for her so she can enjoy greater mobility and continue to live life to the fullest.
And Wilma’s personality is every bit as wonderful as you could hope for. She loves everyone—kids, cats, dogs, and people of all ages. She is sweet, social, and enjoys being part of the family. If there is love to give, Wilma is ready to receive it and give it right back.
Wilma needs an adopter who is compassionate and committed to her care, including:
* Helping her get in and out of her wheelchair
* Providing any daily assistance she may need
* Making sure she gets appropriate exercise and enrichment
* Giving her the love, patience, and security she deserves
Wilma is currently located in the Gettysburg, Pennsylvania area.
If you have experience with special-needs dogs—or simply have a big heart and are willing to learn—please consider opening your home to this deserving girl. Senior dogs and disabled dogs have an incredible way of giving back the love they receive.
Wilma has lost her person, but she hasn’t lost her spirit. Let’s help this beautiful girl find the loving forever home she so deserves.
Please share Wilma’s story far and wide. ❤️🐾

Luc – 10-Year-Old Male Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever
Luc is a 10-year-old male Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever seeking a calm, experienced, adult-only home where he can feel safe, secure, and understood.
Luc is highly intelligent, sensitive, and deeply devoted to his person. He thrives in quiet, structured environments with predictable routines. Once he feels comfortable, he is affectionate, loyal, and enjoys companionship while still valuing his independence.
Luc has many endearing qualities. He loves long naps in cozy hideaways, is obsessed with tennis balls, and enjoys playing fetch. Like many Tollers, he occasionally expresses his excitement with the famous "Toller scream." He enjoys following his favorite person around the house but is equally content relaxing on his own when he needs downtime.
A sporting breed at heart, Luc enjoys scent-based activities, sniff-heavy walks, snuffle mats, food puzzles, and other enrichment games. He is very food motivated and never forgets his nightly Greenie before bed. He also does well in structured daycare settings and especially enjoys water play and splash pads.
Luc does have behavioral challenges related to anxiety, fear-based reactivity, and resource guarding. He can become uncomfortable when feeling cornered, pressured, or approached too quickly, particularly by men. When stressed, he typically gives clear warning signals, including growling, before escalating. Because of this, he needs an experienced handler who understands canine body language, boundaries, and behavior management.
Luc's ideal home:
Adult-only household
No other pets
Calm, low-traffic environment
Experienced dog owner
Consistent structure, patience, and clear boundaries
Luc is neutered, house-trained, current on vaccinations, and maintained on regular flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. He has completed multiple training programs, understands basic commands, and benefits greatly from routine and consistency. He has no known medical issues and takes no daily medications.
This decision has been incredibly difficult and was made solely with Luc's best interests in mind. Over time, stress within the home contributed to increased protective and guarding behaviors surrounding his primary person. Despite extensive efforts to address these issues, it has become clear that Luc would have the best opportunity for success in a different environment.
Luc is not the right dog for every home, but for the right person, he has the potential to be an exceptionally loyal, intelligent, and rewarding companion. Trust with Luc is earned through patience, calm leadership, consistency, and respect for his boundaries. Once he feels safe, his playful, affectionate personality truly shines.
Additional information regarding Luc's routines, training history, and behavior will gladly be provided to help ensure a successful transition. #toller #tollerrescue #tollerrescueinc #tollerrescueincorporated #tollerrescuecalendar
