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!
My new name is Garnet. My past is unknown, I came from a home that had 20 of us, all small dogs.
I’m a mix, unknown, but possibly Chihuahua/Daschund mix. One of my parents had long hair.
I’m about 4 years old, and very nervous in my new surroundings. I will need time to feel comfortable being touched and picked up, but I’m not agressive at all.
Ideally a home that can take me for walks, give me the opportunity to discover the real world and be someone’s best buddy.
If you think you might be interested in me, put in an application. As time goes, I’ll come out of my shell and by the time we get to meet, you’ll know more about me.
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.
There is no cure, just getting used to being blind. It is progressing daily, unfortunately, so I will soon be totally blind.
Obviously stairs are to be avoided, not only due to my breed, but now my blindness.
I’m super friendly, great with kids and other dogs. I just need a place where I can walk around without bumping into too many things. Eventually, I’ll know my way around.
If you want to become my new family, please apply. I deserve a great home and will give you all my love in return.
My name is Fiona. I’m a Giant Schnauzer and I’m a beautiful big girl at 80+ lbs (I could lose a few lbs).
I’m almost 8 and travelled from Mexico, but my family had a baby, and I’m really not a fan. Snarling, growling, barking… My humans are afraid I’ll eventually her her.
So here I am, looking for a mellow household for my retired years.
I’m great with other dogs, walk super well on leash, easy to groom and just a big, easy going girl!
If you think you’d like me to spend the rest of my life with you, put in your application.
I’m Milo, a typical backyard breeder dog. At barely 1-1/2 years old, I’m looking for a new home.
I’m super skittish, scared of people, my own shadow and anything else that moves.
I was just neutered, and the vet discovered a serious heart murmur, grade 6 on 6. That means I’ll need to keep a mellow life, limited exercise and no excited play.
Once I get to know you, I’ll cuddle with you, but for now I need to be “handled with care”. No trying to grab me, pick me up, make me sleep on your lap. That will take some time. The more you push, the more I pull away.
I’m looking for that perfect home, who will know to love me despite my quirks, and help me overcome my fears.
My name is Killua, but you might as well call me Kilowatt because I’m just bursting with energy! I’m small, but if you want a running companion I’m the dog for you.
I’m a two year old medium Spitz type. I’m
active, alert, intelligent, affectionate, playful and love treats. I’m especially good at fetch and tug-of-war.
I’m very friendly with both people and dogs. I love playing chase and wrestling with other dogs, but if I live with other dogs full-time I confess I’m going to annoy them by stealing their food and toys.
All my coat needs is a weekly brushing but if you want to go all out and bathe and blow-dry me, I’m fine with that too. All attention is good attention!
I love my walks and runs. These days I walk about 4 km/day and run in the dog park for about 45 minutes. If I could run even more I’d be even happier. My favourite way to live is to wear myself out then sleep for hours.
I potty outside but I’m also paper trained. At first in a new home I might pick out my own little private spot in the house to do my business in peace. If that doesn’t work for you I’m quick to learn your preferences. I’ve had to go through a couple of homes so it can get confusing sometimes.
Like I said, I’m alert and intelligent. If you leave me alone too long I’m going to get bored and get into things. I’ll bark at squirrels and random noises, and rummage around for things to chew. I particularly enjoy going through wastebaskets and laundry baskets. You can crate me, I’m totally fine with that. I’d prefer to have someone around to give me guidance and reassurance though.
If you want to be my final home, I will love you forever! Kids or not, I’ll be happy with runs, attention and love.
I’m Ernest, Ernie for friends! I’m a 5-year-old American Chihuahua who just arrived from a high kill pound in New Jersey (strictly due to overcrowding), so I was offered a ride up north to beautiful Canada.
I lost my owner to old age and ended up at the local pound where I was pulled out by a wonderful lady who didn’t want to leave me there.
I’m in a foster home, still a little anxious from all these changes, but very well-behaved. I’m presently with a Chihuahua buddy, and it’s going well. I’m also ok with the house cat. I let her know who’s boss, and we’re good
If you want to give me a great home, please put in an application. If you’re a Chihuahua person, you’ll just adore me. No biting, no growling, just loveable!
I’m Rex B, and here’s my story: I’m originally from the streets of Lebanon, and I was rescued and adopted in Canada during the “international adoption” phase that happened between 2020 and 2022.
Unfortunately, these good souls in Lebanon who made us come to this wonderful country, were not aware that the Quebec Statistics for “keeping” us in a home are less than 2 years.
So here I am, a “statistic” of La Belle Province, and I am looking for a new home. I arrived here in 2022 as a teen pup, and after being in a home for over a year, I was surrendered because I was always a little “growly” and I bit a 3 month old puppy. This pup came to be fostered, and I didn’t necessarily want to share. I already had a “brother” that I liked to dominate a bit. So when I bit her, my dad got mad and kicked my bed in anger. My mom then thought it was better to send me away immediately.
I’m super friendly, great in the house, get along with dogs but do have some resource guarding around my food.
I can be your best friend for life, if you’ll have me for the rest of my life, which I hope will be at least 10 years.
I don’t want to bounce all over Quebec, I want a permanent home. I’m a Shepherd mixed with dozens of other breeds, your fun will be to guess what mixes my descendants might have been.
If you think you’d like to meet me and see if we “click”, the first step is to obtain an application The first step is to obtain an application form at http://www.sophiesdogadoption.com/application-forms/adoption-form/ and follow the procedure to obtain an application form.
My name is Pawla, and I’m a street dog from Morocco.
I was rescued by a lady who used to feed stray cats, when she noticed me, a young puppy, coming around to get some food too.
It was obvious I had a bad leg, a break that healed on its own. So she took me off the streets and eventually arranged for me to come to Canada.
I’ve been here for a while but nobody really worked on my socialization so Sophie’s Dog Adoption took me in and I am learning to go on walks outside and explore this new country.
I am very shy, still skittish of a lot, so I’m looking for a very patient person or family to slowly bring me to being a “normal” and confident girl.
I’m still young (-2 years old)and don’t have a prey drive do could live with cats or other critter.
Dogs I’m totally fine with. Having a dog friend could maybe even help me learn to be “free” of my past.
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.
