Djo

I’m Djo, a 4 year old male, most likely a mix of Wire Haired Daschund and Chihuahua.

I’m super friendly and affectionate, but can become protective of my human.

I’m housetrained, able to stay home while you work, and love to play.

I’ve never been around kids, they make me a little nervous, so ideally I’m looking for a quiet home with no young kids.

If you think you’d like to know me, put in an application and let’s see if we’re a match!

Merlin Chi

I’m Merlin Chi, a 9 year old Chihuahua.

I’m looking for a new home this holiday season, and I’m hoping to be loved once again.

I’m really sweet, fully pee pad trained but would probably like the idea of going for walks too.

I had a crappy past, but I’m very social with other dogs. I can be wary of strangers, but once I know you, I’m super charming. I do have a preference for men.

I’m getting a full dental on January 8th, we’ll see if I lose any teeth. But at least my mouth will smell pretty!

If you think you’d like a cuddly little buddy, I may be the one for you.

Enzo Shorkie

I’m Enzo Shorkie, and I’m a 4 year old Shih Tzu/Yorkshire mix.

I had a very neglected past and lack of socialization. I’m wary of new people I meet, but become friendly pretty quickly.

I’m not sure how to walk in a leash without getting super excited and reacting to people and animals I meet. Some work is needed to make walks pleasurable.

However, I’m super clean in the house, quiet, can stay home alone and have zero resource guarding.

I’m looking for a new start with a wonderful family that will have patience and love to give me.

Avellana

I’m Avellana, a sweet, caring, playful, smart, food motivated puppy. I’m 3 and a half months old, and of unknown mixed breed. I should grow to a maximum of 30 lbs, most likely.

I had an uncertain start in life at a young age, however since being in rescue, I am thriving!

I love playing with the other young dogs and I’ve learned good manners through this.

At my foster home, I’ve been doing an excellent job with house training!  I will let my foster know I need to go out by doing a little dance or whine, and she promptly takes me out.

I’m learning to be content in the crate at night and am so happy to see my person in the morning, hopping around and giving kisses.

I am truly one special girl who just wants to love and be loved and will make an excellent member of your family.

Please keep in mind I’m a puppy so need to chew on things. Having plenty of toys around to redirect me is a must and I happily go for the toy.

If you feel you can give me a safe, loving home with plenty of exercise please put in your application .

Bettsi

I’m Bettsi, a sweet Pomeranian who needed a dental so badly, I lost 20 teeth. 16 already had fallen out by the time I arrived at Sophie’s Dog Adoption, so that leaves me with 6 teeth, all on the same side. So they’ll need to be brushed as I can’t really “chew” anything hard.

I’m about 9 years old, but I’m very good shape. Heart, eyes, lungs, all good!

I’m just looking for a new home that will keep me forever and take good care of me.

Kira Chi

I’m Kira Chi, or Kiki for friends. I’m a 7 year old Chihuahua with a traumatic past.

I spent 4 months outside, playing “catch me if you can” in a lumber yard. After months of trying, I was caught with a fishing net!

I’m now settling in slowly, but I’ve already made friends with the dogs here and Sophie! 

If you’d like to give me a chance at having a mellow, easy going life, put in your application! I’m a doll once I trust.

Dio

I’m Dio, a one year old, male Cocker/Poodle mix.

My past is unknown, but I have very sweet qualities. A little “marking” as I’m not neutered, but that’s happening in a few days.

Not sure about kids, as I do a little resource guarding with food, and I don’t like my feet touched very much. Probably had a bad experience with nail cutting.

I came looking like a shaggy rug, so had to be shaved down. I’m not as cute, but you can now see my face.

If you’re looking for a doodle, I could be the one for you. Sophie’s getting to know me better so she can answer your questions.

Pirelli

I’m Pirelli, a 7 year old Chinese Crested dog, weighing 15 lbs. The vet says I’m a little chunky!

Also almost entirely naked with glamorous long hair and boots. 

I’m in good health, though I’ll need you to help me look after my skin and protect me from cold and sunburn. 

I’m a bit nervous with new dogs and people. Sometimes I even bark at them but I make friends within a minute, so all is good. I like spending time with my dog friends. I’ve lived with cats in the past, and ok with older kids.

Indoors I’m super-cuddly. I want to play and I want to be under your blanket with you. We can watch all your favourite movies together.  

I love going on walks, especially if I can take my time. My favourite game when I go outside is wandering around, lifting my leg and peeing on things. I don’t play that game when I’m inside though.

If you are looking for a cuddly, cool-looking friend, I may be the one!

Bubba

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.

Mimi Jack

I’m Mimi, a 9 year old, female, Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix.

My human moved out and left me behind with his roommate. Not knowing what to do, I’m now with Sophie’s Dog Adoption.

I’m getting a full dental this week, and I’ll be ready to smile at my future family.

I’m great with the dogs in foster care, I’m very friendly and easygoing. If you want to give me a good home for my retirement years, I’ll be forever grateful.

Scrappy

I’m Scrappy, an 8 month old dog! I’m a pure mutt, nobody can really say what breeds I’m mixed with.

I’m about 30 lbs, so not a big dog. I’m looking for a new home already as I’m part of the statistics of people getting rid of their dogs within two years.

I’m good with kids, a little nervous around dogs, but a quick learner.

I’d you think you’d like to make me a part of your family, you need to put an application in!

Pawla

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.

DOGS FOR ADOPTION

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.
