Local Dog Rescue is a private no kill all-breed rescue dedicated to caring for unwanted dogs in the Thunder Bay area. Run voluntarily from my home, i'm just a guy with a love for animals doing what I can to provide a safe caring environment for dogs in need until permanent loving homes can be found. All of my dogs live indoors in a cage-free environment, are well socialized, get plenty of exercise through country hiking and walks around town and enjoy daily car rides and lots of play! You can also see them at the dog park! Socializing helps make the transition to your home easier and a lot less stressful for them (and you).

If you are looking for a dog who won't bark, jump, dig, chew, shed hair, has perfect manners and is 100% housebroken, may I suggest you visit the stuffed animal aisle at Walmart. But if you're realistic and want to provide a loving home to a dog thats perfect even with his or her flaws, then grab some treats and come on in!
