How to Adopt

MOREL  is  currently being fostered in Toronto. 

🐾 Meet Morel ✨   Tall, slim, and blonde 

Morel has been in foster care for a full year—and today, she stands as the last of the 17 dogs rescued after being abandoned at the side of a rural road. Her transformation is nothing short of extraordinary.

From feral and frightened to curious, resilient, and ready for love, Morel has come so far. 💛

Take a moment to watch this video and witness her journey. It’s a beautiful reminder of why we rescue—and why every dog deserves a second chance.

📹 Facebook  - Come and see how I've changed! 

Morel is a stunning 10 lb girl, around 3–4 years old, rescued from a group of 17 dogs in rural Ontario. She’s full of quiet resilience and is now ready to find a patient, loving forever home where she can continue to grow and thrive.

A Spirit for the Outdoors 🌿   Morel loves to run and explore and feels most at ease surrounded by nature. She’s still cautious in new environments and gravitates toward women and calm, confident female dogs. She currently lives with two male dogs whom she mostly ignores. However, she’s not comfortable around small dogs or puppies and can be reactive toward them.

Personality in Progress 💛   Not quite a lap dog (yet), Morel is learning to trust at her own pace. Independent and spirited, she’ll flourish with someone who respects her space and celebrates her growth.

Medical & Care Notes 🩺

• Diagnosed with GERD — needs poultry-free food + daily OTC meds
• Should be fed separately as she learns to share
• Healed leg injury — joint support is helpful but she remains active
• Best suited for a home with minimal stairs

Training & Habits 🚗🐾   Morel is great in the car and usually naps during rides. She’s making steady progress with leash walking and potty training, especially with regular breaks or pad access. Crate training is slow — wire crates are a no-go due to past trauma, but she’s warming to large plastic or wooden ones. She has a strong bark when she’s excited or uncertain, though it took four months to hear her first bark — she’s still learning her voice.

What She Needs 🛏️   Morel is looking for a patient, dog-savvy person or family who understands her boundaries, sees her unique spirit, and is willing to earn her trust. She’s endured so much — and yet she continues to open her heart.

Morel has been  Rescued once. Ready to rise again — with you by her side.🐾❤️

ELLANA  is  currently being fostered in Maple, ON. 

🐾 Meet Ellana – Our Waddling Wonder with a Snaggle-Tooth Smile

Ellana is approximately 5–6 years young and weighs 12.5 pounds. She’s a quirky, lovable Pomchi with a snaggle tooth, a soft coat, and a waddle that’ll melt your heart. Her personality is a delightful mix of silly, sweet, and a little bit spicy—she keeps us laughing every day.

🔥 A Survivor’s Story   Ellana was rescued from ACS after landing on the euthanasia list. Before that, she survived a hoarding situation where the home caught fire, and animal control intervened. She’s been through a lot, but she’s come out the other side with resilience and heart.

🩺 Medical Notes   Ellana had a large cancerous mammary mass removed, and she’s doing well post-surgery. She also has a rare little “tick”—occasionally, she makes a fish-like mouth movement. It’s infrequent, doesn’t bother her, and may be neurological or stress-related. The vet saw no cause for concern.

👀 Personality & Behavior   Ellana takes a day or two to warm up to new people. She may bark or give the side-eye, but she’s not aggressive. If cornered, she might nip, so we’re looking for a home without children. Once she feels safe, she’s incredibly affectionate—by lunchtime, she’ll likely be in your lap.

🐶 Social Butterfly with Boundaries   She gets along well with cats and dogs, though she’s a bit of a “mama bear.” She’ll break up rough play, set boundaries, and let everyone know when it’s nap time. She’s confident, playful, and loves her furry friends—but she’s also the boss.

🛁 Care & Handling   Ellana does great at the vet, and she’s fine with baths and nail trims. She’s protective of her people around strangers but warms up quickly once she knows they’re safe.

🏡 Ready for Her Real Home   Ellana is soft, attentive, and truly listens when you talk to her. She deserves a home where she can be understood, loved, and appreciated for the unique gem she is.

Ellana needs a family because every mama bear deserves a place to rest her heart. 💫🐾❤️

SOPHIA  is  currently being fostered in Milton, ON

 🛏️Meet  Sophia: A Gentle Soul Ready to Bloom She’s quiet, cuddly, and waiting for someone to show her the world is safe.

Sophia is approximately 2–4 years old and weighs 8.3 lbs. She’s a shy, timid, and demure little girl who adores blankets, cozy beds, and long naps. Her calm nature makes her a perfect companion for someone seeking a peaceful, loving presence.

Sophia is good with cats, dogs, and well-mannered older children. While she’d likely be fine with children, she wouldn’t enjoy living full-time with younger kids or hyper dogs. She’s low-key and mellow, happiest in a quiet, stable environment.

When she first arrived, Sophia was skittish and unsure, but she’s truly come out of her shell. With a little time and patience, she becomes a devoted cuddle bug who just wants to be close to her person.

Sophia came from a difficult hoarding situation, and while she still needs a bit of socialization and confidence-building, her gentle, loving spirit shines through. She’s ready for a fresh start and a family who will cherish her.

🌟 Sophia: Let her be your quiet comfort and constant companion.

LOLO  is  currently being fostered in Toronto, ON.

💌 Meet LoLo! 🐾   A sassy senior

At 12 years young and a slender 10 pounds, LoLo still has plenty of pep in her step — and even more love to give! She adores her daily walks, cozy naps, and cuddles on the couch.

LoLo came into rescue as an owner surrender in Texas. Though she was described as shy at first, she’s blossomed in her foster home, revealing a gentle, affectionate personality that charms everyone she meets.

This quiet little lady gets along beautifully with calm dogs, cats, and people alike. She’s been an absolute dream to care for — easygoing, sweet, and full of love. LoLo greets her humans with soft kisses and happy tail wags every time they come home.

Recently, LoLo recovered from surgery after eating something she shouldn’t, so her forever family will need to keep their home “puppy-proof.” Her foster finds she only chews on things she shouldn’t when left alone, so a crate while away is highly recommended.

LoLo would be the perfect companion for someone looking to share life’s simple joys with a calm, loving friend who just wants to be by your side.

JOY  is  currently being fostered in Bowmanville, ON

 🐾 Meet Joy – A Little Dog with a Big Heart   

📍 10 months old | 21 lbs | Chi/Pug mix (best guess) 

💛 Looking for an experienced adopter or foster familiar with special needs dogs

Joy is a short, sturdy little gal with a big heart and an even bigger need for a special someone. She was born with hydrocephalus, and while her case is fairly severe, she’s defied the odds with her gentle spirit and loving nature.

She’s incredibly quiet—never makes a peep—and absolutely adores people and affection. Joy gets along well with other dogs, rides nicely in the car, and is even learning to use the doggy door (she’s about 50% there!). Like many hydro pups, she’s a slow learner, but she’s making steady progress every day.

Joy doesn’t spin in circles or have seizures, and aside from some depth perception challenges typical of neuro dogs, she has no major neurological issues. She’s sweet, silly, and full of potential for the right person who can offer her the patience and love she deserves.

We’re looking for a special needs adopter —ideally someone who has experience with hydro dogs and understands their unique care. Joy is truly a wonderful dog who will bring so much love and light into your life.

✨ Joy: a gentle soul with a silly streak, ready to bring sunshine to a special someone’s world.

PRUE  is  currently being fostered in Dunnville, ON

🐾 Meet Prue – A Shy Sweetheart Ready to Shine   

📍 Approx. 5–8 months old | 7 lbs | Chi/Rat Terrier mix 🎯 Estimated adult weight: 15–20 lbs

Prue and her sisters were rescued from a local shelter after being confiscated from a property with several small dogs—mostly Chihuahuas and Rat Terriers ranging from 10 to 25 pounds. These girls hadn’t lived in a home before and arrived very shy, unsure of people and their new surroundings.

But every day, Prue is blossoming. She’s quickly becoming a happy, wiggly pup who’s learning to trust, explore, and enjoy affection. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body—just a little nervousness as she adjusts to the world. Despite her initial hesitation, she craves love and attention and responds beautifully to gentle care.

Prue is incredibly sweet and has the potential to be an amazing companion. She’ll need basic puppy training, potty training, and lots of patience and love to help her thrive.

✨ Prue: a gentle soul learning to love life, one tail wag at a time.

MARCO  is  currently being fostered in Markham, ON.

🐾 Meet Marco – A Gentle Soul with a Unique Smile  

📍 Approx. 5–8 months old | 17 lbs | Purebred Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) 🎯 Estimated adult weight: 40–50 lbs

Marco is a stunning young Blue Heeler with a heart as beautiful as his unique face. Born with a bilateral cleft lip, Marco may look a little different, but this birth defect doesn’t slow him down one bit. He eats just like any other dog—he just needs a little extra dental care to keep food and debris from getting stuck in that area. It’s important to note this is not a cleft palate, and he can enjoy all types of food without issue.

Despite his tough start, Marco is a gentle, timid boy who’s still learning to trust the world. He’s under-socialized and gets nervous around new people, dogs, and places. He may even pee a little when scared—but with time, patience, and love, we believe this will fade as his confidence grows.

Marco needs a committed adopter who’s ready to help him blossom. Someone kind, patient, and willing to guide him through basic puppy training and gentle socialization. He’s not a bold adventurer yet, but he’s a quiet, sweet soul who wants to feel safe and loved.

✨ Marco: a nervous nelly with a heart of gold, waiting for someone to see past the shy and love him for the gem he truly is.

TABITHA AND TINK  are currently being fostered in Tillsonburgh,  ON.

🌟 Meet Tabitha & Tink – The Cheeseburger Sisters! 🍔💜

Tabitha (10 years, 7.8 lbs) is a pointy‑eared Chihuahua with a big love for cheeseburgers and a heart that’s just as big. She’s a little on the thin side, but with TLC (and the occasional burger treat), she’s filling out beautifully.

Tink (8 years, 6.8 lbs) is a scruffy Chihuahua‑Terrier mix with the cutest terrier whiskers. She’s never known life without Tabitha, and the two are inseparable—true sisters at heart.

✨ Their Story   These girls weren’t well cared for before coming to us, but their best chapter is just beginning. Both have had dentals and blood work, and they’re doing well for their age. They’re picky eaters (hot dogs and cheeseburgers are their guilty pleasures), but with patience and routine, they’re thriving.

✨ Their Needs

• A loving home together—they are extremely bonded.
• Stability, routine, and lots of cozy comforts (heating pads and sweaters are a must, since they’re always chilly!).
• Gentle introductions to new people and pets—they may bark at first, but quickly settle and are never aggressive.
• Pee pad trained ✅ and leash‑friendly (though winter walks might not be their favorite).
• 
  

✨ Why You’ll Love Them   Tabitha and Tink are typical Chihuahuas: loyal, spirited, and endlessly entertaining. They’ll bring joy, laughter, and companionship to the right home. They’ve captured our hearts, and we know they’ll capture yours too.

💜 These girls need YOU to give them the forever home they deserve. Could you be the one to write their happy ending?

CLOVE  is  currently being fostered in Hamilton, ON.

🌸 Meet Clove – The Sweetest Little Blossom 🌸

Clove is a tiny treasure, weighing just 2–3 pounds and around 12 inches of pure love. She’s quiet, gentle, and affectionate, with just a sprinkle of classic Chihuahua sass once she feels safe and starts to blossom.

✨ Her Personality

• Loving and sweet, happiest when snuggled up.
• A cat‑lover! She adores feline friends and was often found cuddling with cats at the shelter.
• Shy with new dogs, but warms up quickly with slow introductions. At first, she may show her teeth or growl out of fear, but it’s only her way of saying she needs time.
• 
  

✨ Her Story   Clove likely had a rough start—possibly bullied or pushed around as a stray—but she’s proving every day that she’s resilient. With patience, kindness, and routine, she blossoms into the most loyal little companion.

✨ Her Needs

• A calm, loving home where she can feel safe.
• Gentle introductions to new dogs and people.
• Lots of love, patience, and cozy spots to curl up.
• 
  

💜 Clove is not aggressive—just cautious until she knows she’s safe. Once she trusts you, she’ll melt your heart with her sweetness. She’s ready for her forever family to show her that the best is yet to come.

SHYLA is  currently being fostered in Texas.

🌸 Meet Shyla 🌸 - 💖 From heartbreak to hope, Shyla’s journey shows just how resilient and loving a little dog can be.

Shyla is approximately  4 years old • 8 lbs. 

Shyla’s story is one of survival and transformation. Rescued from a heartbreaking hoarding situation, she arrived shy, neglected, and pregnant. With love and care, she blossomed into a sweet, funny, and social little dog. She gave birth to five healthy puppies (all spoken for!)—and now it’s finally her turn to shine.

✨ Personality: Gentle, loving, and adores attention once she warms up

✨ Good with: Other dogs, dog-savvy kids (8+) 

✨ Not a fan of: Cats 

✨ Quirks: Shy at first, but quick to trust. Will bark at strangers (classic Chi behavior!)

Shyla has never known the comforts of a home—no cozy bed, no couch cuddles, no Christmas tree lights. She’s ready to be someone’s princess, the one who gets spoiled, adored, and cherished.

Shyla ,,,,,,, And just look at those ears… how could you resist? 🐾💖

CONNIE  is  currently being fostered in Texas.

🐾 Meet Connie  - 💖 Connie’s journey is one of resilience and quiet strength. 

Connie Approx. 5–7 years old • 12.5 lbs (working toward 13 lbs). She came into rescue a hot mess—severely matted and neglected—but with care and love, her coat is growing back beautifully.

✨ Breed guess: Poodle/Maltese/Doodle/Schnauzer mix (all white, appears non-shedding) 

✨ Personality: An old soul—chill, affectionate, and a little aloof in the sweetest way 

✨ Special note: Appears to be partially deaf   

✨ Good with: Dogs (she bonds quickly and even “moms” them) 

✨ Not interested in: Cats 

✨ Children: Best with mature, dog-savvy kids; would thrive in a quiet, calm home

Connie doesn’t really play, but she loves being near others, observing, and sunbathing. She’s protective of “her pack” but never aggressive—just gently herding newcomers away. She enjoys little walks (though she’ll need some leash training), car rides, and being part of a family.

She rarely barks, is very demure, and has a big, loving heart. We think at some point she was cherished so deeply that she almost believed she was more human child than dog—that’s the vibe she gives.

🏡 Connie deserves her second chance. She’s ready for a safe, routine, and loving home where she can finally be adored for the gentle, affectionate girl she is.
