Full Circle Rescue

📍We are a Registered Canadian Charity . We ensure quality care, support, and compassion through education, outreach, and community involvement.

FCR is a 100% volunteer, foster-based dog rescue in Ontario. 🐾 Focusing on quality care, compassion, education, and community involvement. 🫶🏻 Full Circle Rescue does not have a facility and is strictly a foster based organization based out of Southern Ontario. We exist to save, protect, and improve the lives of abandoned, neglected, and surrendered dogs; the ones at the highest risk of euthanasia.

156 days. 💔

That’s how long Nala has been waiting for her forever home.

And honestly? We don’t understand how this sweet girl is still waiting.

Nala is 2 years old, 53 lbs, incredibly affectionate, smart, loyal, and happiest when she knows what to expect. She absolutely thrives on routine and loves having a person to follow, learn from, and do life with.

She’s house-trained, knows her commands, loves car rides, can relax on her own, and adores affection. Once Nala loves you, she is your girl through and through. ❤️

Nala would love a confident handler who can continue working with her on basic training and give her the structure, rules, and boundaries she thrives with. She’s a bigger, strong girl, so someone comfortable handling a dog her size would be ideal. She doesn’t need someone who has owned a Shepherd or Malinois before. She just needs someone committed, patient, and willing to keep building on the foundation she already has.

Nala would do best as the only dog in her home and is not suited to a home with cats.

She has so much love to give. She just needs someone to see her, choose her, and give her the chance she’s been waiting for.

156 days is long enough. 🖤

Could you be Nala’s person?

📍 Hamilton, ON
🐾 2 years old | 53 lbs
🐕 Shepherd/Malinois mix
🏡 Available for adoption

If Nala isn’t your dog, please share her. Sometimes it only takes one person seeing the right post at the right time. ❤️

THEY’RE STILL WAITING. ❤️

Some of these dogs have been with Full Circle Rescue for weeks. Some for months.

And honestly, we haven’t received much interest or many adoption applications for them.

They aren’t bad dogs. They aren’t broken. They just haven’t been seen by the right person yet. 🐾

So we’re putting them all in one place.

Swipe through to meet some of the dogs who have been waiting the longest, and see just how many days they’ve been waiting for their forever home. ❤️

We’ve also added a comment under each photo sharing why we love them, what makes them special, and what kind of home we think would be best for them.

Maybe one of them is your dog.

Or maybe you know exactly who needs to see this post.

Please share. Tag someone. Send it to a friend. You never know whose timeline it needs to land on.
