Ryder was found as a stray and brought to Hamilton Animal Services. Ryder’s stray time came and went, but no owner came forward for him.
Ryder has severe dental disease and is in desperate need of surgery. He also has a fatty lump on his chest that needs to be looked at by a vet and possibly removed. Ryder is the sweetest dog though, despite the pain his mouth must be causing him.
We were happy to get Ryder out of the shelter and into a foster home which happens to be Ladybird co-founder Melissa and her family! Ryder wil see the vet soon, and hopefully he is healthy enough to have the dental surgery he needs so he can start the search for his forever home when he’s healed.

Welcome to Ladybird, Ryder! We’re so happy you’re here!
