My name is Tater, I’m a 5 year old English Bulldog mix. Unfortunately I had a rough start and somehow I ended up at the pound in the USA.

I was transfered to an SPCA for care and adoption as I had severe allergies that had gone untreated. However, during a playful interaction with an employee, my teeth broke skin on his hand accidentally. That put me right on death row.

A great lady stepped up to the plate and took me off death row and brought me to Canada.

I have come a long way with my playtime with humans. I am great with kids however we recommend older kids, in case I get carried away.  

I am so good in a crate and can be left alone for a few hours.

Good on walks, even though I need to be reminded not to pull, I wilI adjust. I make good eye contact with you, checking in, while walking.

I will need regular exercise to help me be well behaved and sleep well.

I currently live with a cat and 3 other dogs. I WILL CLAIM any food that is on the floor as my own. You will need to make sure there is no food on the ground if there is another dog in the house.

I will love you to pieces and give you lots of kisses as a way to say thank you for giving me a home. 

*****I have allergies and I am currently taking meds for it. This is an added expense to consider when adopting me*****

I’m China, a 5 month old Chihuahua who is looking for her 3rd home. You read right!

I’m very shy and skittish around new people, but I will come around. 

I’m friendly, quiet, mellow but still need to practice bathroom habits. I am still very young so I’m learning fast.

I’m good with the other foster dog, so a friendly buddy would be nice but I can also be the only dog.

If you are looking for a dog like me, you must have the patience to help me learn and navigate this crazy world. I want love  and mostly stability. You need to be ready to have me for the rest of my life, which might be 20 years (I’m a Chihuahua ).

I’m Fry, an 18 month old Aussie. I was relinquished to Sophie right after Xmas for nipping young kids running in the house. Not sure of my previous background, but my tail is docked.

As far as puppies go, I’m super well behaved! I know lots of commands, am totally house trained, and only bark if I hear strangers at the door. 

I like to be in eyesight of my humans, but I’m independent as long as I have toys to chew. I cry to ask for help when they roll under the sofa. 

But don’t let these baby blues fool you! I have *lots* of puppy energy so you’ll need to spend time with me so I don’t get bored create my own activities! I definitely cannot spend my days alone in the backyard.

Another dog in the home would be ideal because I love to wrestle. I tire out all the resident dogs in my foster home. My foster mom keeps an eye on us, and I calm down right away if she tells me I’m playing too rough.

My favourite thing ever is the dog park, which I go to every 2 days to burn off my Aussie herding energy. I just run and run and run and never stop! 

I have zero prey drive, squirrels can pass right in front of me and I don’t care. Haven’t met any cats though. I’m working on leash walking as I like to turn in circles and might trip you by accident.

I am sweet and affectionate but I’m not a lap dog. I love to please and am super smart.

Ideally you can take me to agility or teach me talking buttons (I’m already learning them) – something that keeps my mind and body occupied.

I’m looking for an active family and if there are kids, they should be older so they don’t trigger my herding instincts with running and jerky movements. Are you my forever companion and adventure buddy!

I’m B.I.G., a 2 year old pitbull who’s looking for a new home.

I’ve been named after the rapper, as pitbulls are notorious for their bad rap , you can also call me Biggie.

I’m a big boy, but super gentle and mellow. The Chihuahuas on my foster home actually intimidate me.

I’m good with dogs, been around a cat before and most likely would love a family with kids.

All I want is a good life, a loving family and I will give it back tenfold. I’m just a sweet boy who needs a forever home.

If you think I could become your best friend, put in your application!

I’m “Buddy”, a six year old Lab mix.  I was originally adopted on “free adoption for seniors” day at the SPCA back in January 2024.

Unfortunately my dad passed in August, and I ended up with my dad’s family. However, it’s just not the home form me. I was put on Prozac from the time I was first adopted, but it’s not doing much for me. I’m getting weaned off it slowly.

I am very much a “one person” dog, as I am super loyal and want to please.

Love getting attention, being petted, brushed, back scratches, and love relaxing and sleeping near you.

I’m sweet, attentive, know basic obedience, and am fully housetrained.

I love going for walks, playing in the snow, fetching, but I can get reactive if I meet dogs on leash.

Now for the anxious side of me:  I can be reactive on leash, I will get into the garbage if left alone, I will bark at people entering the house, but also at movement within the house.

You see, I’m now in a family of five, and it’s too much for me. I was put in a situation before the holidays where stress made me react and snap. Nothing major, but enough to realize I’m not in the right environment.

I’m good with other dogs in general, I Iive with a little fluffy dog now and we’re great.

Ideally I’m looking for a structured and quiet household so I can get over my anxiety and find my forever home.

I’m Einstein, a two year old, 14lb Yorkshire looking for his permanent home!

I’ve already been dumped twice that I can remember, so I’m looking for at least my 3rd home.

My youth is unknown. I am not a fan of kids at all and could easily nip, so no kids in your entourage is best, and I am jealous of other dogs getting the attention. That means, I want to be the prince in my new home.

However, I can be manipulative,  which means I might have gotten away with everything as a pup. I will growl and show you my attitude if I’m not happy.

Ideally, I need a one person home, but someone very structured. Otherwise I will take over and run the house. You will become mine, and I will rule! 

Previous experience with dogs like me is a must. I’m clean, friendly, affectionate but a little needy of attention. No separation anxiety, but when you’re home, I’ll want to share your space.

If you think I could be the guy for you, forever this time, then put in your application.

I’m Teega, an 8 year old Chihuahua who was quite neglected, living with a senior who was recently hospitalized and won’t be able to take me back.

I’m super skittish, even scared at the moment. It will take me some time to learn new ways.

I’ve never been out, always stayed in the apartment. Pipi pads was my thing, I’ve never even had a collar around my neck.

I’m looking for someone who knows chihuahuas like me, can help me come out of my shell, have the patience to let me come around. I won’t be ready to jump in your arms when I first come to your home.

Ideally no kids, that would be hard for me to get used to.

If you’d like to give me a chance at a structured, loving, stable home, you know what to do! Apply to adopt me!

I’m El Diablo. I came from the same home as Toupie. I’m about 8 years old, and also a Chihuahua, but I’m fat! I’m close to 10 lbs.

I’m also getting a full dental, as my teeth are really bad too. Brushing my teeth will be a must of you don’t want me to go through that again.

I’m much more scared and nervous than Toupie. I’m just starting to venture around the house, and came on the couch recently.  With time and patience, I will learn to trust.

I’ve also never been on a leash, just having a collar on is a big deal, so you will need patience to teach me that outside is fun.

If you want to give me that special home, I’ll be super grateful.

Hi, I’m Noodle! I’m probably a poodle mix and about two years old. My hair can grow quite long and get matted so I need to be kept trimmed and regularly brushed. 

I weigh about 6 kilos (13 lbs) so a “small” dog but I’m big enough to not be too delicate.

I’m very sweet, quiet, friendly, forgiving, cuddly and happy go lucky. No separation anxiety. I get along with dogs and adults and would probably enjoy kids to play with too.

I’m a young dog so I need to get out every day to stretch my legs. In the winter I get cold (even when I wear a jacket) so I need to be able to run to warm myself up. 

The people in my last home had health issues that meant they couldn’t walk me any more, so now I’m looking for my forever home. Whoever you are, I know we can make eachother happy!

I will be quite popular, so get your application in sooner than later.

I’m Gringo, a tiny 5 lb chihuahua. I’m loveable, affectionate, playful and independent.

I’m 7 years old, and I love people, but don’t pick me up!. I’ll jump on your lap, sleep in your bed, lay on the sofa with you, but don’t pick me up!

I love going for walks, love treats but I’m a picky eater. Some fat on me certainly wouldn’t hurt!

Ideally I see myself with one person, and eventually you’ll be able to pick me up, but you’ll need to give me time for  that. I just got neutered and a full dental, so I have beautiful teeth. But… I do still mark from time to time. I’ll need a little work on that issue, so access to a yard would help.
