Violet ⭐ Available for Adoption ⭐ 10-month-old female, Spayed In Foster Care Since: June 13, 2024 Good with: Dogs, Children, Chases cats Location: London, Ontario Adoption Fee: $700 Meet Violet, a beautiful blue-eyed Husky mix with a heart full of energy and affection. She is the perfect adventure companion—whether it's a walk around the block or a day outdoors. She’s working hard on her leash training and basic commands like "sit," especially when food is involved. She is also progressing well with potty training and will be fully trained with a bit more consistency. Violet gets along wonderfully with her foster dog siblings of all sizes and breeds. While she may chase the cats at times, as a young pup, she’s learning to coexist peacefully. She loves playing with other dogs, kicking soccer balls, and chewing on her favorite toys. Loyal and affectionate, Violet forms strong bonds with her humans and loves being by your side. She enjoys running alongside her foster mom and would be ideal for an active family or person. After a fun day, she’ll happily curl up for a cozy cuddle. Though she’s not a fan of her crate yet, she’s making progress with crate training and will soon feel comfortable. Violet is microchipped, spayed, and up to date on vaccinations. If you're interested in welcoming Violet into your home, please fill out the adoption application below- https://form.jotform.com/221626931360250

Story

Magnolia - Available for adoption ~1 year old female In foster care since: September 23, 2024 Fostered in: London, Ontario Adoption fee: 700 Meet Magnolia! This sweet sleddie girl came into care in September 2024 and, after months of love from her foster family, she’s ready for her forever home. She’s a mix of shyness, smarts, and energy. She may be cautious at first, but she’s quickly learning that fun is worth overcoming her fears. Her foster mom jokes that Magnolia moves like a deer, with perky ears and graceful, speedy runs. When she’s happy, she trots around in the cutest way, especially with her big brown doe eyes that could melt anyone’s heart. Unfortunately, Magnolia didn’t get to enjoy puppyhood before, but she’s making up for it now! She’s full of energy, curiosity, and loves to zoom around. A big yard and playmates would be her dream come true. She’s quickly becoming a great house pet and would thrive in a home with another dog to help guide her, though she’s open to a people-only home that offers patience and love. Magnolia is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. She’s good with dogs, cats, and kids (though she tends to avoid busy toddlers). Ready to give Magnolia the loving home she deserves?

Story

Available to Foster or Foster to Adopt Located in Paris, Ontario Born December 9th 2024 Adoption fee $700 Hi, I’m Beth, a gorgeous Mastiff mix pup with a heart as big as my paws! My siblings and I were born outside, braving the freezing cold, until we were lucky enough to find a warm place in rescue. Not long after I left my siblings for my very own foster home, I ended up in emergency surgery to treat two inguinal hernias. I was in critical condition, and they weren’t sure I’d make it through, but I wasn’t ready to give up! I fought through it and have been thriving in my foster home ever since. Despite every challenge I’ve faced, I’ve kept fighting, and now I’m ready to find the forever family I fought so hard for! I’m a total cuddle bug—my favorite place to nap is curled up in your lap. With my princess personality, I love being wrapped up in a cozy blanket. When I’m not snoozing, you’ll find me chasing toys, working on treat puzzles, or chewing on peanut butter Kongs. I’m currently living with three other dogs, and we get along great! I haven’t been around cats yet, but I’m pretty sure I’d be just fine with them. Potty training is still a work in progress, so I’ll need a family willing to help me with that. I do great in my crate and sleep soundly through the night, only crying if I need to go potty. I’m the perfect mix of playful companion and snuggly lap dog, and I’m looking for a family who’ll love me as much as I’ll love them. Together, we’ll make all the battles worth it! I am up to date on my vaccines, microchipped and will be spayed prior to moving to my furever home. If you think your home would be a good fit for a spunky girl like me, please fill out the application below. https://form.jotform.com/221626931360250

Story

Available to foster or adopt 3 years old Fostered in London, Ontario Well hey there!! I’m Noelle! And I’m ready to steal your heart! I came from a local First Nations community, where I was living outside with my pups. But luckily, we were all brought into care on December 14, 2024, and now I’m enjoying the good life indoors, all cozy and comfy. My pups don’t need me anymore, and now it’s my turn for some extra love and attention! Unfortunately, I tested positive for both heartworm and Lyme disease, so I am looking for a foster or adoptive home to let me relax while I go through treatment. My medical care is paid for by the rescue. I’m a total sweetheart: calm, loving, and always up for snuggling with my humans. I’m housebroken and great with kids. I’m eager to learn, and I’m pretty proud of my leash skills (they’re a work in progress, but I’m catching on!). I’ll always be near you, hoping for some pets—and maybe a snack or two (I’m very generous that way). I am still learning the ropes when it comes to leash skills but with patience and training, I’m making progress and looking forward to continued improvement! I am reactive to other dogs , so a home with no other pets is a must for me. I need a family who is willing to continue working with me and maybe, hopefully one day I will learn to love some doggy friends! I have been microchipped, am up to date on my vaccines and will be spayed in the near future. If you think your home could be a good fit for me, please apply below! https://form.jotform.com/221626931360250

Story

Available for Adoption Fostered in London, Ontario Born December 9th 2024 Adoption fee $700 Hi there, I'm Tate – though my friends sometimes call me Tater, Tater-tot, or even Po-tater! You might recognize me from the Yellowstone litter. I am a Mastiff mix of sorts, but I like to think of myself as a little champion with plenty of heart and a hint of playful mischief! Born on a frosty December day as one of eight adorable pups, I've always known I was my mama's favorite. I'm pretty sure I remember being born first, so I like to say I’m older by a few minutes. A few minutes is a lot if you're waiting for breakfast! I'm a total cuddle bug, always up for snuggles, naps, and playful romps. I love hanging out with the big dogs at playtime and showing off my spirited personality. Even though they are bigger than I am and a lot older, I definitely hold my own (and find good hiding spots they cannot fit into when I need a break—I love that trick). I even love the cat, and one day I know she will love me too. I'm crate trained and steadily perfecting my potty skills. And while I might not be the biggest fan of cold weather or snowy days, nothing beats curling up in a warm, cozy spot on the couch—especially when there's a funny YouTube video of squirrels on the screen. My perfect match is someone who will love me forever. I may be cute and small now, but just wait until I'm a big, lovable boy taking up a whole lot more of the couch. I'll need you to love me just as much then! If you're looking for a loyal companion with a heart full of love, a dash of cheeky charm, and a spirit that’s as warm as your favorite blanket, then I might just be the perfect match for you. Let's make some unforgettable memories together! I am up to date on my vaccines, microchipped, and will be neutered next week. If you think you’re up for loving a guy like me, please fill out the application below! https://form.jotform.com/221626931360250
