Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.BLISSFUL came into rescue from a backyard breeder along with her sisters (Grateful and Thankful. She’s had her first and second vaccines, a microchip and been deemed a healthy girl by her vet and ready to find her loving family. We were told her parents are Collie/Mastiff mixes of around 55-69lbs but it’s just a guess on the weight she’ll grow to be. This loveable, happy girl loves people and gets very excited when she meets new people and especially so with people she already knows.  BLISSFUL is crate trained and sleeps soundly in it at night and will also nap in it quietly during the day. She loves to play with a variety of toys and especially likes the ones that squeak and roll around. Tug-of-war with a rope toy is one of her favourite things to do but of course she does likes to win. Housetraining is going very well and she hasn’t had an accident in the home              for a couple of weeks now but she is taken outside often. She’s quite food motivated and currently uses a slow feeder for her meals to help her slow down when she eats. We do recommend that she be fed in her crate if other dogs are in the home until she learns to slow down when eating. She loves her treats and has been easy to give basic training to due to her love of food.  BLISSFUL’s ideal family is an active one who will take her on lots of walks and hikes on the trails to help her burn iff that puppy energy.?She’s adventurous so would always be up for one especially seeing as she travels so well in a vehicle she would always be up for one. She’s fostered with a large dog and loves to play with him but when he’s had enough of her puppy antics he’ll let her know and she heeds his cues. She hasn’t met a cat but if they’re dog savvy and a slow, monitored introduction is done then they should get along okay. She requires a fenced-in yard as she loves to run around and play outside (under supervision) and it will also keep her safe.  Children should be aged 6 and up and be caring, gentle and loving towards animals. They also need to understand that puppies will chase, nibble on toes and generally be very playful. BLISSFUL’s spay is included in the adoption fee and as per our rescue agreement must be performed by the time she hits 6 months of age. If preferred, the adopter can use their own vet and we’ll reimburse what we would’ve paid for it if it was performed at the Barrie SPCA as we use them for our spay/neuters. We just need a copy of the invoice and a picture of the pet (preferably in a cone or onesie) to do so. We also need her adopter to be in agreement to sign her up for obedience/puppy training in order to adopt her.  If you’re interested in BLISSFUL and would like to meet her then please submit an adoption application to do so. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 18, 2024, 10:48 pm

Story
Shanel is such a happy good dog. She is an ideal family dog at 6 years old and weighs about 70 pounds. Due to some family issues she needed to find a new home. But she got lots of love and was raised in a home with children and other dogs. She is good with other dogs and loves to play. She walks well on a leash and loves to go exploring. She especially loves human affection and would be an amazing companion. She loves meeting new people and dogs and truly is one of the happiest and friendliest dogs we have met. She is spayed, up to date on her shots, and in good health. She has no separation anxiety and would do well in almost any home - as long as it is filled with love. If you live in Ontario within 3 hours of Toronto and would like to meet her and get to know more about her and our foster to adopt program, please email our rescue at c4ptoronto@gmail.com.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.MOLASSES hails from Moose Lake in Northern Manitoba and came down south to find her forever family. She’s spayed, vaccinated including rabies and microchipped. We have no knowledge of her parents so the breeds we have her listed as are merely a guess based on the breeds she looks like. She’s just the sweetest little lady and she loves to cuddle up with you and will try and sit on your lap too. She’s pretty laid back and has a low energy level so would definitely suit a quiet home with a retired couple or one with someone who works from home.  MOLASSES is house trained and also crate trained and will sleep in her crate all night without a peep. She was originally fostered with an older cat who would just lay around or sit in his chair and she really took no notice of him. However she then went to another home and seemed to have a prey drive for the cat who lived there. So it’s hard to say whether or not she would get along with the next cat she meets and at this point in time, we’re not recommending she be with one even if they’re dog savvy. She’s really good with other dogs but she doesn’t appreciate rude dogs who’ll get into het face and bark at her as she’ll just bark right back. We are only letting her be adopted to an adults only home and one that doesn’t have children coming to visit. A fenced yard would be great for her as she does enjoy being outside.  A little bit of background history on MOLASSES: she was in her Northern community when one of the networks we work with had volunteers there to do a spay/neuter/Clinic and fell in love with the wonderful nature she has. She needed to have a spay but no one came forward to claim her afterwards so they decided she was too great of a dog to leave behind so brought her back with them. They then posted her for a rescue to take and this rescue stepped up to take her in. That little tidbit is important to point out on how they felt about her and it’s relevant to this next part about her. Molasses was adopted out into a home for 9 months with young teenagers in it and there ended up being an incident and we now have to say she has a bite history. We’re a full disclosure rescue and this incident will be discussed in full with a potential adopter. It should be noted that as soon as we received her back into the rescue she went straight to a board and train programme for 4 weeks with a Behaviourist/trainer for a full assessment and she wrote up a very detailed report on her and it is also available to a potential adopter.  It is important that the adopter of MOLASSES be prepared to take her for basic training as it not only benefits her but will help to form a bond between her and her new owner. If you feel MOLASSES would be suitable for your home and lifestyle plus you have somewhat of an understanding about her then please fill out an application to meet her. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 4, 2024, 1:30 pm
