I’ve been named Hinalani at the Hawaiian shelter that I came from.
I came to the shelter as my “human” was taken to jail. It was suspected I might not have actually belonged to him, but nobody ever claimed me so here I am.
I’m only 10 months old, but unfortunately not very popular so I was to be put down to make room for more.
An angel got me out here to Montreal for a chance at a new life, that will include snow! I can’t wait for that to arrive.
I’m good with everyone and everything. People, kids, cats, dogs….Need some work on leash walking and a little reminder for my bathroom needs, but so far so good.
If you think I could be your girl, put in that application and find out.

You guessed it! I’m a long haired chihuahua and I’m 8 years old. I am a male despite my name, Cookie Huahua.
I will be getting a full dental ASAP, so not sure how many teeth will be left. But I’ll be like a brand new puppy!!
I’ve been given up due to “allergies”, but my family kept my short haired “sister”. Go figure.
I can be a little barky, as most chihuahuas are, but mostly at noises or people coming in. I may therefore not be the best candidate for apartment living.
I’m learning to go outside for my business, as the pipi pads are hit or miss and I am learning very fast. Leash walking had never been a thing, so that will be a learning experience.
I’m super friendly once I know you, I’m just looking for a great family to love and cherish me forever.
I’m Banjo, the sweetest tripod puppy you’ll ever meet! My mix is a guess, I’d say I might get to 30lbs fully grown.
I’m 4 months old and missing a back leg due to an accident. But once amputated, I bounced right back!
I’m jumping, running, hopping and bouncing like a 4 legged pup!
I’m proving to be a very smart boy, already learning that we do our business outside.
I would love kids iny life, but right now I nibble with my teeth, so some work will be needed.
Everyone is going to want me, but THINK before you apply. I’m just a teeny thing, but so are my sharp little teeth. I’ll be losing those soon, then watch out for your furniture!!
I’m Marco Little, also known as Toshi and I’m a compassionate adoption as I need full time care. Someone needs to always be there to check on me. We don’t know my lifespan, but I’m full of life and don’t want to be euthanized, despite that being the recommendation.
I’m a 6 month old tiny Yorkshire, (-3lbs), and suffered brain damage at birth. I’m therefore unable to walk, or even hold myself up.
I went to see a neurologist, and this is their findings:
“One cannot tell the cause of Toshi neurological status. Keeping in mind that Toshi neurological status has not deteriorated since in the present foster home, inflammatory, neoplastic and degenerative causes are ruled out.
Congenital anomalies and traumatic event are both possible. If traumatic, the trauma occurred at the base of the skull because the main damage involves the brainstem.
However, one would expect involvement of cranial nerves II (optic nerves) and III (oculomotor nerves) bilaterally with such a lesion, these nerves being situated at this level in the brain.
Despite the history given by the breeder, congenital anomalies are possible.”
That being said, I definitely have a “joie de vivre” and love being cuddled, eating and just being near you.
I do need help with my bathroom habits as I cannot walk, and basically need someone with me all the time.
If you’re a full time care giver and want to add me to your life, I’ll be forever in your debt.
I’m Loulou Chi, a sweet and very healthy 10 year old Chihuahua mix (maybe with Boston).
I’m getting my teeth done next week as they’re really bad, not sure how many will be left, but I’ll feel like a million bucks!
I’m super chill and friendly, affectionate and quiet. I’m housetrained and can stay home alone. Zero separation anxiety.
I’ve shown no fear or signs of agression, so I’d probably be good with kids. Of course, it always depends on how they treat me.
I’m NOT a compassionate adoption despite my age, as I have many good years ahead of me, especially once my mouth is taken care of. That is the costly part of having rescued me.
I’m Dale! I’m an English bulldog mix from California. I’m about 5 years old, and here’s my story:
I was pulled from Contra Costa animal shelter, where I was on the euthanasia list back in July due to “lack of space” and bad skin problems at the time.
I went to coyote Crossing animal ranch in Byron, California and stayed on the farm from July until November.
During that time, I was being kept outside, mainly in a kennel with another dog. I then travelled to Montreal by ground transport.
I saw the vet the day after I arrived here because my skin needed attention. My ears were badly infected as well.
My skin is doing much better. I have food allergies and am on purina vet hypoallergenic dog food. I’m also on antibiotics, an anti-allergy, ear drops, medicated baths, and medicated foam between my toes. It’s working wonders!
I’ve been living in a home, maybe for the first time. Everything is new for me. Unloading the dishwasher, folding laundry etc… like what’s this? What are you doing?
I’m happy with a few short walks a day; one in the morning (I literally need to be forced to go out unless I’m desperate for a pee) and a short afternoon walk. I am fully housetrained.
I sleep a lot and then we go on our night walk, which can last about 25 minutes. After that, I’m good to just hang out with the kids.
Right now, I’m living in a house with three kids (4,5,11) and a cat. I do really well with the kids, but I’m a strong boy and don’t seem to know my size. I am a “bully” breed after all.
Unfortunately, I’m really not a fan of the cat, so it’s not working out. In California, there was many cats on the property and I did just fine with them. I walked right past them, not bothered at all. I think living in a home with a brand new cat is too much for me. I get overstimulated at the sight of the cat and it’s pretty hard to calm me down afterwards. And when I get overstimulated, I chew stuff (blankets, pillows, etc).
I’ve never been on a leash so I’m still learning what is expected of me on a walk. I don’t pull, but often stop, look up at you like what now? Then I’ll start walking, then stop and look up at you.
I’ve learned what having a family is and I’m now ready for my permanent home!
I’m Rambo Derman, a stunning 2 year old extra large, male doberman. I’m good with dogs, lived with cats in the past and looking for the right home.
I’m eager to learn, especially if the reward is a ball. I’m looking for my 3rd home through no fault of mine. My first home left me behind when they left the county.
My second home adores me, but I don’t adore the kids. I’m very uncomfortable around them, every time they move I growl at them.
I’m not at all agressive, but I sure am impressive. My bark is loud, and my teeth are big.
I love the ball, I would do super well with agility. I’m active, young, affectionate and would love an active home.
I’m an old boy, looking for a compassionate adoption.
I was living in a home where I was severely neglected in the past few years, I arrived with horrendous eye and ear infections.
To make it worst, I’m completely blind and my hearing is not so great from the massive ear infections I had. I do have dry eye syndrome, or KCS, so I need artificial tears to help as my eyes don’t produce them on their own .
My heart and lungs are great, I still have a lot of “joie de vivre”, so I’m looking for a compassionate home to take me in until the end. I still have a few good years in front of me, if you’re willing to give me the care I need.
The adoption process through Sophie’s Dog Adoptions consists of filling out an application form to adopt, a full screening is done to ensure that the dogs I place will in fact be going to good, forever homes. These dogs have been through a lot already, and don’t deserve to come back again and again. The right family / person is out there for each dog. The process can sometimes be longer than with other rescue groups or organizations, but an animal is for life and it should not be something to rush into. Once I am satisfied that the family/person meets the criteria to adopt one of my dogs, then the adoption is finalized with a contract. ADOPTING A PET IS NOT SOMETHING TO TAKE LIGHTLY, IT IS, IN MY OPINION, THE SAME AS ADOPTING A CHILD.
