Story
Some dogs are born into loving homes and then are adored for the rest of their lives. Others are not. And this happened to SPIN’s beautiful Salem. Salem wasn’t perfect. Goodness knows he wasn’t perfect. He pulled on leash and chased the cats and he was bouncy and playful and a little mouthy and he growled at his owner when they tried to punish him. For four years this was his life. Four years of being a disappointment because he was, you know, a standard poodle. Many people desire a perfect dog, or perhaps a warm, stuffed animal—cuddly, soft, quiet, perfect. They often believe this is how dogs naturally are, not considering their energy, intelligence, playfulness, and fears. When these traits emerge, people blame the dog, and resentment settles in. We loved him right away. Everyone who met him liked him immediately! What a smart, cuddly pup! Of course, we are all poodle people and all we could say to him was, "Welcome to SPIN, buddy!" To help him overcome his general level of anxiety that was built up over the 4 years he was in a stressful home, SPIN put him on Fluoxetine. And man, has this helped. You will see below in the description from his foster that he is still a little jumpy around loud noised and new things – he still doesn’t love having his ears and neck touched or pulled. I think we can understand why. Ah, Salem, we will find you a home where you can feel safe, warm and loved.

Story
Bella is truly a one-of-a-kind companion, and her name suits her perfectly. This affectionate girl thrives on human connection, gladly following you from room to room and always eager for a cozy cuddle whenever the opportunity arises. Her days are a delightful mix of leisurely naps, playful toy chewing, and curious explorations in the yard, where every new scent offers her a world to discover. However, nothing brings her more joy than the warmth of your affection and the excitement of outdoor walks. Independently spirited, Bella has seamlessly adapted to the comforts of home. She is house-trained, understands basic commands, and her intelligence shines through in her ability to entertain herself with toys. Quiet and observant, she knows when to alert you if something seems amiss, making her not just a pet but a true partner. Walking with Bella is a charm; she’s well-behaved, enjoys the freedom of off-leash excursions, and always stays attuned to your call. When meeting new people and dogs, Bella takes her time, assessing each situation with care. Once she feels comfortable, her confidence grows, allowing her to make fast friends with both two- and four-legged companions in the neighborhood. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to welcome Bella into your life. She is not just a beautiful soul on the outside but will undoubtedly enrich your life in ways you never imagined. Whether you seek an adventurous playmate or a loyal companion for quiet moments outdoors, Bella is the perfect addition to your family. Open your heart to her, and you won’t regret it! Bella is being fostered in East Gwillimbury. ••••••••• As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details!

Story
Meet Salle! Salle is a 2-3-year-old, approximately 20 lb sweetheart who just arrived from Mexico. Her story is heartbreaking but filled with hope: she was found on the streets in rough condition alongside two other dogs who seem to be her relatives. Thankfully, our rescue partner in Mexico took them in and gave them the care and love they needed to recover. Now fully vetted and ready for her forever home, Salle has quickly shown her foster family how much she adores affection—both giving and receiving! She thrives on attention and being around others, so we believe her ideal home would include another dog companion and a fenced-in yard where she can explore and play. Salle is still learning how to walk on a leash, but bring a pocketful of treats, and she'll eagerly work to improve her skills. She will need some ongoing training. She’s proven to be low-shedding, with no evidence of fur left behind on furniture or clothing. While her exact mix is a mystery, we think she might be part poodle and 100% sweetness. If you’re looking for a cuddle buddy, loyal companion, and your new best friend, Salle might be the perfect match for you. Fill out an application today! Applications will be reviewed after Nov. 26 ••••••••• As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details!
