Story
Meet Denver – The Ultimate Cuddle Bug! Denver is the kind of dog who makes you fall in love instantly—just ask his foster mom in Mexico, who knew right away that he was a total sweetheart. Now in Canada, he’s proving to be just as lovable! This little guy is all about the snuggles and will gladly accept all the pats, belly rubs, and cozy naps you have to offer. He’s a champ on the leash, walking calmly like a seasoned pro (as long as there are no puddles—those are clearly suspicious). Snow, on the other hand? No problem! Denver gets along just fine with other dogs socially but would prefer to be the only pet in the house. He also has strong opinions about squirrels, though we suspect the squirrels started it. Cats are also a little too much like squirrels so woios not be good in his home. While he’s mostly a laid-back kind of guy, Denver does have occasional bursts of excitement—think joyful zoomies and some enthusiastic pant-leg nibbling. He’s still figuring out this whole "toys" thing, but he’s discovered the joy of chewing on a small bone, so we’re making progress. As for house training, well… let’s just say Denver needs a bit of a schedule. He knows outside is an option, but sometimes those small rugs just look so inviting. With consistency, he’ll get the hang of it. At bedtime, Denver is all about the cuddles and prefers to be very close to his person. He might even insist on spooning. Personal space? Never heard of it. Denver would do well in a home with or without other pets, as he’s easygoing and doesn’t cause any drama. His foster family will keep an eye on him for any new quirks, but so far, he’s proving to be an absolute gem. Denver is currently accepting applications, that his foster family will review. If you’re looking for a snuggly, slightly quirky, and totally lovable companion, he just might be your guy! Denver is being fostered in Richmond Hill. ••••••••• As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details! An application for me can be found at www.justpaws.ca. Just Paws is located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. We do not adopt out of province or country. Please note that although many of our dogs get along with children, we are not able to adopt to any household with kids under the age of 8 years old. This is a stipulation of our insurance and is not a reflection on suitability of the potential adopter.

Story
Meet Howie! Since arriving in Canada, Howie has shown that he is a total sweetheart—gentle, a little shy, and full of potential! While he’s still figuring things out, his playful and curious side is starting to peek through. Like any good chihuahua, he loves burrowing into a pile of blankets or snuggling up with his humans on the couch. He’s got a great appetite and has a special fondness for liver treats! Howie is still adjusting to the chilly March weather—one minute he’s happily trotting along, and the next, he decides he’s had enough and needs a royal escort .His adopters will need to help him build confidence on walks and keep a close eye on his little nose, as he’s quite the scavenger. He’ll also need to bundle up in cozy sweaters and jackets until he gets used to Toronto’s colder climate. Since he’s a delicate little guy, he prefers a harness over a collar for walks. So far, Howie seems to be potty trained! He’s had only one small accident and isn’t in a rush to get up in the mornings—perfect for someone who loves to sleep in! He has been happily snoozing in bed with his foster family, all wrapped up in cozy blankets. Loud city noises (like big trucks and sirens) can startle him a little, and he’s still deciding how he feels about bigger dogs. While he coexists well with his foster's small pup, he hasn’t initiated play yet. Toys also don’t seem to be on his radar just yet, but with time and encouragement, that may change! So far, Howie hasn’t barked at all, and the only little grumble he’s made was when he was snuggled up with his foster and their dog got a bit too close—he just loves his people and wants to keep his cuddle spot safe! Through his entire journey from Mexico to Canada, Howie was a perfect travel companion—quiet, calm, and easygoing. He is going to make a wonderful addition to a patient and loving family who will help him grow in confidence, shower him with warmth (both emotional and literal!), and enjoy every adorable moment with him. Howie is currently being fostered in Toronto and is waiting for his perfect match! ••••••••• As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly.
