Story

Thank you for your interest in Hubert. He is such a fun loving, energetic, happy, barky boy. He loves people and dogs and life. Some of it he loves a little too much. Well, not too much for him but too much for other dogs. But he is really just a softee who wants to run and play and be chased. Running, bouncing, barking, playing, snuggling, hugging, what could be better?

Story

Oh, Boomer, you are a love and a frustration all rolled into one beautiful package. Boomer was sold to a family with young children during Covid and that meant he had a lot of people home all the time and didn't get much of the socialization he should have received. He did get a lot of company at home though! Unfortunately the young boy in the family fell ill, they needed to move and were unable to bring Boomer with them. That's how he came into our care. We've been taking out time getting to know him because as much as he is a lovely boy, he has his struggles too.

***REMINDER: Please read the bio requirements and only fill in the application if you can meet ALL requirements. Due to the number of applications being received for each dog, we are only able to contact the applicants who have met ALL the listed Requirements*** Chelsea may be adopted with Foxy (same foster home) or separately if there is a companion dog in your home . Name/Tag#: Chelsea 4203 Age: 6 years old Sex/Altered: Female/ Spayed Weight: Just under 10 lbs. Breed: Miniature Poodle Foster Home Location: OTTAWA, ON Adoption Fee: $750.00 Temperament: Very sweet, can be a little shy at first in new situations Activity/Energy Level: Moderate Up to date on Shots: Yes, plus dental done Housebroken: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Ok with Dogs: Yes Ok with Cats: Unknown Ok with Kids: No, adult only home please Origin: Mill release Requirements: Securely fenced yard, a well-balanced companion dog (could be Chelsea), adult only home with previous dog experience Meet Chelsea- a very sweet and playful poodle that is so ready to be your next best friend. Chelsea is the total package – she has a fantastic personality, she loves to meet other dogs, she is housetrained (will use pee pads too), crate trained, and loves going out for walks. She was introduced to snow for the first time in her life and she absolutely loves it; you would think she is part husky the way she runs through the snow. It is so cute to see her just jump right in and frolic in the fresh snow. She is also just as enthusiastic to curl up for cuddles on the couch beside you during downtime. Grooming is a breeze with her, she is an eager participant and just stands there while you groom her. Because of her lack of socializing with young children, she can be a bit intimidated by them and will try to move herself away from them when they are around. Chelsea has learned so much in her time in foster care, the more you can introduce to her the more confident she is becoming. She is very eager to make sure she is living her life to the fullest and loves to be a part of everything that you are doing. Chelsea loves to interact with the other dogs in her foster home and will initiate play. Chelsea is looking for a home with another playful dog in it to keep her company and an experienced adult only home with a fenced yard. You can’t go wrong with adopting this girl! Questions?

Rescued alongside her four puppies, Juno’s gentle and nurturing personality shone as she cared for her little family. Now, it’s her turn to enjoy the love and care of a forever home. Juno is polite, eager to please, and always ready for the next adventure. She’s fully potty trained, sleeps soundly in her crate at night, and loves her daily walks. Juno is curious and thoughtful when exploring new situations and looks to her human for direction. She’s quick to adapt and thrives on encouragement, making her a loyal and trusting companion. What Juno’s Looking For: Juno would love a family who can match her playful and adventurous spirit. She enjoys playing with other dogs, curling up on the couch during quiet moments, and heading out for walks or hikes. A playful fur sibling would be wonderful, or she’d thrive with regular socialization through doggy friends or daycare. Her intelligence and willingness to learn make her a joy to train—she already knows “sit” and “stay” and is eager to pick up more skills. If you’re searching for a sweet, smart, and devoted companion to share life’s adventures, Juno is ready to bring her gentle love and cheerful personality into your home. Questions?

Story

***REMINDER: Please read the bio requirements and only fill in the application if you can meet ALL requirements. Due to the number of applications being received for each dog, we are only able to contact the applicants who have met ALL the listed Requirements*** Name/Tag#: Mila 4225 Age: 18 months Sex/Altered: Female/ Spayed Weight: 19 lbs Breed: Terrier Mix Foster Home Location: GUELPH, ON Adoption Fee: $750.00 Temperament: Happy, shy Activity/Energy Level: Medium to medium high Up to date on Shots: Yes Housebroken: 98% trained Crate Trained: Yes Ok with Dogs: Yes, great Ok with Cats: Unknown Ok with Kids: Yes, children 8 years or older who are dog savvy Requirements: A companion dog in the home, securely fenced yard, someone who is home part of the day, no kids under 8 years, experienced dog owner A few words from me: Hi! I’m Mila and I’m so excited about everything! I love my foster sibling, Ruby. I would love a home with another dog to play with. I enjoy meeting new people as well as new dog friends. Playing in the snow is a blast, thankfully my foster mom got me a warm jacket! I’ll do anything for a treat, and I love to have a good cheese chew or bully stick to pass the time. And now, a few words from my foster mom: Mila is a very fun and outgoing 18-month mixed terrier breed. She is a very athletic and dainty little girl. She would happily enjoy a good hike but also loves a nice quiet walk around the neighborhood. Mila would love to live with another playful dog. Running and playing are two of her favourite things. She hasn’t interacted with any children but I suspect she would be fine with older, dog savvy kids. Mila is crate and house trained. She has a medium- high energy level and does need a fair amount of stimulation. Mila is very smart and is picking up leash training very easily, and she has tons of potential to go in any direction with her training. At the end of a long day of playtime, Mila loves to curl up on your lap and cuddle. She loves affection and it’s very clear she would love to have a family to share all her love with. Questions?
