bath – Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area. George Genereux Urban Regional Park.

In the heart of winter, a shivering and scared dog was found abandoned in the Avalon Dog Park. The dog was a rescue, previously adopted from a shelter with the promise of a forever home, but now left to fend for herself in the cold. But just when all hope seemed lost, a dog lover named Sarah came to her rescue.

Sarah, a seasoned dog owner, had always had a soft spot for rescue dogs, and she could see the potential in the shivering ball of fur in front of her. She took the dog in, giving her a warm and safe place to stay, and soon enough, the dog began to show her gratitude and love.

As it turned out, the dog was a quick learner, and soon became well-behaved and obedient. She loved to play and go on long walks, and she had a special talent for making those around her smile. Sarah knew that she had found a special dog, and she was determined to give her the forever home she deserved.

But just when everything seemed perfect, Sarah faced a new challenge. The dog, who had been terrified of water, would not even go near a bathtub. Sarah, determined to help her furry friend, took things slowly, and with patience and understanding, she was able to help the dog overcome her fear.

And so, the dog who had been abandoned twice, finally found her forever home with Sarah. She was no longer a shivering ball of fur, but a happy and confident dog, loved and cherished by her new family.

This rescue within a rescue is a reminder that every dog deserves a second chance, and that love and patience can work wonders. So here’s to the dog who found a home, and to Sarah, the dog lover who gave her one. May their story inspire others to open their hearts and homes to rescue dogs in need, and to see the love and joy that they have to offer.

Richard St. Barbe Bak

Jax was just another abandoned dog when she was first found at the Avalon Dog Park. She was timid and scared, with only a couple of basic commands in her vocabulary. But little did anyone know, this furry ball of fluff would soon blossom into a confident and loving companion, thanks to the patience and love of her new owners.

Jax’s new owners talked to her foster family. It was the foster family who gave her a bath and said there bathroom had never seen so much water- on the walls and ceiling. When Sarah, gave her a bath we knew what they went thru! Now she will go into the bathroom and sit by the shower if she wants a bath. Less stress for her and Sarah!

Despite Jax’s initial fear of water, her new owner, Sarah, was determined to help her overcome her fears and build trust. Sarah took things slow and introduced Jax to water gradually, always making sure she was comfortable and relaxed. Over time, Jax’s fear of water diminished, and she even began to place both paws on the bathtub, although she still wouldn’t jump in.

Sarah’s dedication and patience paid off, as Jax slowly became more and more confident in her new surroundings. She learned new commands and began to develop her own personality. Today, Jax is a happy and beloved member of Sarah’s family, who brings joy and laughter wherever she goes.

Jax’s story is a testament to the transformative power of love and patience. Despite her traumatic past, she was able to heal and blossom into a confident and affectionate companion. If you’re considering adding a dog to your family, remember that rescue dogs, like Jax, have just as much love to give as any other dog and often just need a little extra patience and understanding to reach their full potential.

So here’s to Jax, the rescue dog who went from being scared and alone, to a cherished member of a loving family. May her story inspire others to open their hearts and homes to dogs in need.
