Adoptable Dogs

Rex

Rex is an 11 month neutered male White Shepherd/Husky who's nice temperament and unique appearance makes him an ideal candidate for any loving family attracted to either breed. He is a good looking fellow with the distinctive features of one brown and one blue eye and a fairly short, low maintenance white coat. He is somewhat underweight at the moment due to his circumstances prior to coming into our rescue. No doubt he would blossom in a permanent, loving home where he would be settled and happy with lots of T.L.C and individual attention. Rex is a dog who likes to please and is not backward in showing affection to his friends. Being a pup, he is still inclined to be somewhat exuberant in his greeting but he is learning restraint and to present himself in a more acceptable fashion. No doubt he has had little in the way of formal training in his short life but the good news is that he is young enough to absorb knowledge like a sponge. Rex would enjoy the stimulation of learning and derive satisfaction in pleasing his teachers and mentors. He is excellent with other dogs, even those smaller than himself, so he would be quite comfortable in sharing a home with a canine buddy who could be a role model in the art of doggy decorum.

We all know that the "Oscars" are over and that multi-talented artists received this prestigious award but our Oscar is yet to find a deserving recipient.

Brandi

Brandi is an 11 month spayed female pup weighing 35 lb and who resembles a Labrador in miniature. We would dearly like to know what delightful combo of genetic distribution resulted in such a petite and sweet natured Labrador look-a-like. Her roots are firmly established in Newfoundland and no doubt family members are still there with the memories of their ancestors. Like many Newfoundlanders Brandi has left her home Province in pursuit of broader horizons and the opportunities a girl might find in the more populated Province of Ontario. She has come to us from the S.P.C.A in Newfoundland and has her own fond memories of her friends there, without who's encouragement and financial assistance her dream of finding a family here could not have been realized. She is blessed with an out-going personality but is submissive with other dogs and respectful of cats. Brandi loves people of all ages and displays the normal energy level one would expect of a young dog, therefore a home where someone can devote time to her would be a dream come true - for Brandi, as well as all the friends she has made along the way. Please call us at: (905) 939 - 2692 for more info. .Brandi is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered

Mitch

Mitch is a 2 year neutered male Border Collie/Australian Shepherd with the striking markings of the Border Collie and also some characteristics of the Aussi, most noticeable being the short tail. He is proving to be an extremely smart and easily motivated dog who already has a firm grasp on basic training as well as additional skills such as going down on command, shaking paws for a treat and, undoubtedly, he has more tricks in his repertoire as yet to be discovered. This unique and attractive boy has a lot to offer his new family in the form of companionship, loyalty and fidelity. His enquiring mind, keen intellect and excellent conformation will enable him to fulfill many roles including formal obedience, agility, doggy sports and activities as well as walks, hikes and camping with his human friends. He is also fond of travelling and is well behaved and quiet in a vehicle. Mitch is good with other dogs and would happily share his new home with a canine play-mate, male or female. He has been formally introduced to Opus the resident cat, who's tolerance of cavorting canines is minimal at best, and showed little interest in asserting himself - meeting grudging approval from his nibs. If you are a fan of the herding breeds and can offer this gorgeous boy the home he so richly deserves, please call us at: (905) 939 - 2692. Mitch is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered

Sydney

Sidney is a 9 month neutered male Australian Shepherd/Retriever weighing about 50 lbs and approximately the size of a Border Collie. This uniquely beautiful dog bears a resemblance to both of these popular breeds. In keeping with his Aussie heritage he has no tail to speak of and from his Retriever lineage comes his gorgeous light gold coat. He is out-going and sociable, both with people and other dogs. In consideration of his young age and breed mix he would do best in a home where his keen intellect could be challenged and his exercise needs met. " He has no tail to wag it's true - Alas poor Sydney can't tell you - How much your kindness means to him - With wagging tail as most dogs can. It seems as though to make amends - This pup works harder to make friends - With happy face and smiling eyes - He'll let you know you're idolized. His heart is pure, make no mistake - He'll neither pause not hesitate - To welcome you and will not fail - To make you forget he has no tail."

Suzi

Suzi is an 18 month spayed female red and cream Siberian Husky with blue eyes and weighing 45 lbs. Her tale is one told many times but not always with a happy ending. Suzi was in a situation with other Huskies where her well-being and personal needs were set aside in order to produce Husky pups for breeder profits. She has been a mother to puppies even though she is still a pup herself. She has now been fully vetted and spayed and the rest of her life will belong to her in the pursuit of happiness and her own fulfillment. She is blessed with a resilience borne of the Husky's ability to endure and to overcome life's inequities, coupled with an optimistic and sweet nature. Due to her puppy rearing experience Suzi is extremely tolerant of other dogs, even the smaller ones, and would be quite delighted to share a home with a canine brother or sister of any breed. She is quickly rediscovering her own puppy-hood and loves to play now that she is allowed to follow her natural inclinations, a play-mate in her new home would certainly be a bonus for her. She would do best with a family or individuals with previous experience with her breed and an appreciation of their special qualities. For additional info on Suzi or to make an appointment to visit with her you can reach us at: (905) 939 - 2692. Suzi is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered

Checkers

Checkers is a 6 year neutered male black and white Shih-Tsu weighing 12 lbs. His disarming personality is slowly emerging as he becomes more confident and comfortable in his new situation. He is beginning to let out his inner puppy with bouts of tail chasing and playfulness with his stuffed toys. No doubt he once had a home and is wondering why he is here with us. It seems he was somewhat neglected in recent times as his beautiful coat was in need of attention to restore it to well groomed beauty. He has now spent time with our excellent groomer who doubles as an understanding and compassionate friend of rescued dogs. Little Checkers was treated to the works; cut, wash and blow-dry, and he was very cooperative and brave throughout, although the nail trimming was not his favourite part. He is very pleased with his new look, however, and quite keen to have his picture taken for everyone to see how handsome he is with his large expressive eyes and beguiling features. He is in need of a family who will be patient enough to let him become accustomed to his new surroundings before making demands on him and he will prove to be a wonderful and loyal companion. No young children due to his smaller size and vulnerability. Please call us at: (905) 939 - 2692. Checkers is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered

Thomas

Thomas is a 5 month, 4 lb neutered male domestic short haired beautiful grey striped tabby kitten in need of a purrfectly wonderful home. This ordinarily sweet natured little cat has obviously had negative experiences around people and we believe he was dumped on our country road to fend for himself. Well, what with Winter approaching and the threat from predators - even dogs - his chances of survival were slim to none. It seems that luck conspired with fate to bring Thomas, tired and hungry, to one of our dog pens looking for food, giving us the chance to capture him, get him fully vetted and bring him into the safety and comfort of our home. For a few days little Thomas was reluctant to give up his defensive posture and give us his trust. However, he is making steady progress, along with overtures of affection accompanied by the welcome sound of loud, contented purring. This brave little kitten who came out of the forest looking for help deserves to find a kind, caring and patient family who will enjoy watching him overcome his timidity and grow into a confident and contented cat. If you can find it in your heart to offer Thomas the warmth, affection and love he has never known please call us at: (905) 939 - 2692. Thomas is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered
