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.🐾❤️

CULLUM is  currently being fostered in London, ON.

🐾 Meet Cullum – The Ladies Man  who will put  the sparkle in your heart 

This tall, slender boy (just 8.5 lbs) is about 1.5–2 years old. He’s shy and skittish, but underneath that gentle shell is a truly sweet, loving soul. Cullum doesn’t have a mean bone in his body — he’s great with other dogs, playful, and happy once he starts to feel safe. Having a social, confident dog in the home would be a big comfort to him as he continues to learn “how to dog.”

One very important thing about Cullum: He is terrified of men. No matter how patient or kind, men make him extremely fearful. This may improve over time with the right environment, but there’s also a chance it may not. For this reason, Cullum would thrive best in a female-only home where he can truly relax and blossom without that added stress.

Because he’s a bit of a flight risk, Cullum must be kept very secure with a harness and leash, especially during his first days in a new home or anytime doors are opening. Safety will be key until he fully settles in.

Every day, Cullum is blossoming a little more — gaining confidence, discovering play, and showing glimpses of the cuddly lap pup he’s meant to be. With patience, stability, and lots of love, he will grow into the dapper little prince who proudly struts in his autumn sweater and showers you with kisses.

Cullum just needs that one special human willing to give him the safe, loving life he deserves. Could that be you? 💕

👉 Check out his reel on Facebook and Instagram to see why he’s a classic ladies’ man — charm, ears, and all!🐶💕✨🐾❤️

GINGER is  currently being fostered in Hamilton, ON

🐾Meet Ginger – Spotted, Snuggly, and Just a Bit Magical   

At only 9.5 lbs and around 10 months to 1 year old, Ginger is fully grown and bursting with charm. Her nearly bare face adorned with peach fuzz, striking skin spots, and standout ears suggest she might be part chiweenie with a splash of Chinese crested. She's social, gentle, and full of silly personality — the kind of dog who can make anyone smile. Ginger does well with kids, other pets, and warms up quickly after a touch of shyness.

And if you think Ginger’s fabulous, wait till you meet her sister Olive — they share the same whimsical good looks and affectionate nature. Double the peach fuzz, double the heart-melting moments. 💛

🌟Ginger’s got the fuzz, the flair, and the fabulousness — adopt joy with ears and attitude!💫🐾

BURRITO  is  currently being fostered in Milton, ON. 

🌯 Meet Burrito – Our Sweet Little Survivor

Oh gosh… Burrito! This adorable boy was rescued from a high-kill shelter and has stolen our hearts ever since. At approximately 3 years old and 9.6 pounds, Burrito is the sweetest little companion you could ever hope to meet.

💔 A Tough Start, A Strong Spirit   Burrito is heartworm positive, and while we typically complete full treatment before adoption, Burrito had a severe reaction to his first injection—we truly thought we were going to lose him. Because of this, he will continue with the “slow kill” method, meaning he must stay on Heartgard or another monthly heartworm prevention for the rest of his life. He may eventually test negative, but this can take years. It’s not ideal, but it’s the safest path for him.

🐾 Gentle, Loving, and Ready for a Family   Burrito is great with cats, dogs, and kids. He’s a little shy when meeting new people—he may cower, hide, or tuck his tail—but with a gentle voice and a few treats, he’ll be in your lap in no time, dancing and being his silly self. He’s a soft soul who just wants love.

🚽 Potty Manners   He’s doing well with potty training, though he did mark a bit when he first arrived. Occasionally, he may still pee on something, but it’s not constant. A belly band during the first few weeks in a new home can help him adjust.

Burrito has been with us for a few months now, and we absolutely adore him. It’s time for this little guy to find his happily ever after because every Burrito deserves to be wrapped in love.  💫🐾❤️

ELLANA  is  currently being fostered in Burlington, 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. 💫🐾❤️

LYLA  is  currently being fostered in Dufferin County, ON.

 Meet Lyla: A Loving and Well-Mannered Companion Seeking Her Forever Home 🐾❤️

Lyla is approximately 2 ½ years old and weighs 11 pounds.  She was adopted from a high-kill shelter in Pasadena, Texas, but was sadly owner-surrendered only five months later. Despite this, Lyla remains a good dog with many wonderful traits. 

She walks well on leash 🚶‍♀️, has excellent potty manners 🚽, and is very good with people, children, and other adult dogs. Lyla experienced some anxiety on her first day in a new environment , but quickly settled in and acclimated within a day or two. She LOVES attention 💕 and thrives on affection. Lyla has a prey drive, so she is not suitable for homes with very small or fluffy puppies, cats, kittens, or small squirrely animals 

She needs to live with other adult dogs 7 pounds or heavier or as an only dog.  She is not dog aggressive and currently lives peacefully with several other dogs. 

Lyla has a mild luxating patella in her rear left limb, but this doesn’t affect her cheerful disposition or well-mannered behavior. She is smart and would benefit from basic training  and tasks to keep her engaged.

What Lyla needs most is a stable, loving home with a routine, people to love her, and a chance to flourish . She’s been given up on too many times already—now is the time for her forever family. 🌟

Lyla isn’t just looking for a home—she’s looking for a family to cherish her for life. 💖🐾

EDGAR  is  currently being fostered in Texas.

 🌞 Edgar’s Golden Years Glow-Up From forgotten to forever—he’s waited his whole life for you.

Edgar is approximately 10–12 years old and weighs 10.5 lbs. Short, stout, and full of quiet charm, this sweet senior boy has lived his entire life outdoors in a heartbreaking hoarding situation. He’s never known the comfort of a cozy bed, the joy of fresh blankets from the dryer, or the warmth of being someone’s world. But he’s ready. So ready.

Edgar is incredibly gentle and affectionate. Though shy at first, he melts into your arms and becomes a devoted cuddle companion—a true couch potato who’s happiest just being near you. He’s low-key, low-maintenance, and full of love.

He recently had a much-needed dental and walks well on leash and harness. His potty manners are improving at the ranch, though he did mark a bit when he first arrived—so a belly band during his adjustment period might help. He’s developing mild cataracts but still sees and hears just fine.

Edgar gets along beautifully with cats and other mellow senior dogs. He’s not a fan of puppies or hyper dogs in his space—he won’t hurt them, but he’ll grumble to let them know he’s over that phase of life. His ideal home would be with other seniors who match his pace, or as a cherished only dog.

Whether in a condo, apartment, or quiet home, Edgar doesn’t ask for much—just a sunny spot to nap, a soft blanket, and someone to finally call his own. He’s waited his whole life for this. And he deserves nothing less than a happily ever after.

🌟 Edgar: Proof that love is worth the wait.

DONKEY   is  currently being fostered in Texas.

🫏Meet Donkey: Ears for Days, Love for Life! The tiniest goofball with the biggest heart.

Donkey is approximately 5–8 months old and weighs just 5 lbs. He’s expected to be 11–14 lbs fully grown, making him the perfect pint-sized companion with the best ears you’ve ever seen!

This little guy is social, silly, and full of personality. He gets along beautifully with other animals and children, and he’s always ready to make new friends. Donkey loves playing outside, chew toys, and romping with his doggy pals.

He’s a delightful mix of playful energy and sweet snuggles. Once he gets his zoomies out, Donkey settles into cuddle mode and adores being held. He’s a happy, well-rounded pup who’s ready to bring joy to his forever family.

Donkey thrives on chew treats, cozy naps, and companionship. Whether he’s bouncing around the yard or curled up in your arms, he’s happiest when he’s loved.

🌟 Donkey: Small in size, giant in joy.

GYPSY is  currently being fostered in Texas

 🩷 🌺 Meet Gypsy Girl: From Survivor to Sweetheart She’s lived through heartbreak—now she’s ready for healing.

Gypsy is approximately 2–4 years old and weighs 9.8 lbs. This resilient little soul came from a devastating hoarding situation where she was bred relentlessly and forced to survive outdoors through scorching heat, freezing winters, and the chaos of over 46 dogs and predators. She’s never known safety—until now.

Gypsy arrived very pregnant and gave birth just two weeks later. Of her three babies, one passed the first night, and the other two struggled to thrive. We placed them with a bottle baby foster after discovering that Gypsy’s nipples, enlarged from years of overbreeding, were too big for her tiny pups to latch. It was a heartbreaking reminder of all she’s endured.

But Gypsy is ready to leave the past behind. She’s blossoming into a friendly, social, silly, and loving companion who adores being with her people. She’s great with other animals and loves attention, cuddles, and connection.

We do want to be transparent: Gypsy bit the ACO officer during confiscation and nipped a volunteer’s ankle 48 hours after giving birth. We believe these were protective instincts, not aggression. Since then, Gypsy has interacted with at least 15 different people—including bathing, nail trims, and vaccinations—with no issues. She’s not an aggressive dog, but she does have a touch of “protection dog” energy.

Because of this, we are asking for a home with no young children. A calm environment with adults or older teens would be ideal. Gypsy is a doll baby with a little sister sass, and even the vet’s office fell in love with her.

🌟 Gypsy: She’s earned her peace—now she’s ready to be your heart dog. 🌸

WREN  is  currently being fostered in Texas

 🕊️ Meet Wren: A Whisper of Hope She’s tiny, timid, and waiting for someone to show her the world is kind.

Wren is approximately 3–4 years old and weighs just 6.8 lbs. This delicate little girl was rescued from a heartbreaking hoarding situation, where she lived among 46 other dogs with no real socialization or safety.

She is incredibly shy and skittish—but never bites, never shows aggression. Wren is sweet, demure, and gentle, with an angelic soul that’s just beginning to trust.

Though under-socialized, Wren is not feral. She simply needs patience, kindness, and a calm environment to help her build confidence and discover the joy of being loved. She’s very submissive with other dogs, so she’s currently placed with our seniors, and she’s also good with cats.

Because of her sensitivity, we ask for no small children. A fenced yard would be ideal, giving her space to explore safely. With time and encouragement, Wren will learn to walk on leash and harness, but she’ll need gentle guidance during her transition.

She is truly an amazing girl—quiet, soulful, and ready to bloom with the right person by her side.

🌟 Wren: Let her be your quiet miracle.

LINDEN is currently being fostered in Texas

Meet Linden – the timid little guy with a heart full of love 💛   

Linden is looking for an experienced foster or adopter who can help him blossom. He’s approximately 1–2 years old, weighs 11.5 pounds, and came from a difficult hoarding situation. He’s not aggressive, but he’s a bit feral-ish, skittish, and timid as he learns what it means to “dog.”

He does let us pick him up—and once you’ve earned his trust, he actually enjoys attention. We still have to baby talk him, gently coax him into a corner, and then he’ll squat sweetly and let us scoop him up. He’s never bitten, just cautious and unsure.

Underneath that nervous exterior is a gentle, loving soul who’s ready to be someone’s best boy. Linden is great with other animals, but we’re recommending no small children and ideally a fenced yard. With time and patience, he’ll walk beautifully on a leash and harness.

He’s adorable, funny, and has a sweet demeanor, but he needs help building confidence and some decompression time to feel safe. Once he knows you, he’s incredibly cuddly—and yes, he sits funny sometimes, which is just ridiculously cute.

🌿 Linden may be a nervous nelly now, but with love and patience, he’ll be the quirky cuddlebug you’ve been waiting for.

ESTELLA   is  currently being fostered in Texas

🌸 Meet Estella: The Lap Baby You've Been Dreaming Of Gentle, loyal, and ready to be adored.

Estella is approximately 3 years old and weighs 9.8 lbs. She’s a soft-hearted sweetheart who came from a heartbreaking hoarding situation, but she’s ready to leave the past behind and step into the loving life she’s always deserved.

She’s shy at first, but comes around quickly with kindness and patience. Estella is incredibly gentle, sweet, and affectionate—the kind of companion who will follow you everywhere and melt into your lap the moment she feels safe.

She would thrive in a mature adult home with loving, patient people who can dote on her and help her blossom. Estella is great with dogs, cats, and well-mannered older children.

She walks on leash and harness, though she may be a bit hesitant during her first few days—just take extra care and let her adjust at her own pace.

Estella is a true doll. Despite her rough beginnings, she craves love and attention and is ready to give her heart to someone who sees her for the treasure she is.

🌟 Estella: Let her be your shadow, your snuggle, your heart.

FREYA   is  currently being fostered in Texas

🌞 Meet Freya: Grace in a Tiny Package She’s lived in chaos—now she’s ready for calm, cuddles, and connection.

Freya is approximately 3 years old and weighs 6.2 lbs, though 7 lbs would be a healthy weight for her. Tall and slender, she came from a heartbreaking hoarding situation and arrived at the rescue nervous and timid, but she’s made beautiful progress in just a few weeks.

Freya is incredibly sweet and gentle. She loves baby talk and being doted on, but she’s sensitive to how she’s approached. She does not like being chased or picked up from above—she’ll run off. But if you squat down and offer gentle encouragement, she’ll crawl right into your lap and let you scoop her up.

She acclimates quickly—just a few days to bond deeply with her person and settle into her new space. Freya is a total lap dog, devoted and affectionate once she feels safe. Because of her delicate nature, no small children please. She’s also not a fan of hyper dogs or puppies, but she does well with low-key dogs her age or older, and she’s indifferent to cats.

Freya has an old soul. She thrives in a mature, calm home where she can sunbathe, snack, and enjoy the finer things in doggie life. She’s prancy and does little dances, but she’s mellow and not much of a “player.” She needs a home that matches her peaceful energy.

After surviving a chaotic life among 46 other dogs, Freya deserves a stable, loving, and positive family who will cherish her gentle heart.

🌟 Freya: A quiet soul ready to bloom in your arms.

NEMO  is  currently being fostered in Texas

 👑 Meet Nemo: A Tiny Prince with a Big Overbite and an Even Bigger Heart 🐾

Nemo is approximately 4–6 years old and weighs just 4.8 pounds—a tiny, tiny boy with a big, adorable overbite that makes him absolutely unforgettable. He’s a quiet, cuddly sweetheart who may be skittish at first, but he’s not aggressive and doesn’t bite. He just needs a couple of days to adjust to new people and surroundings.

Nemo loves:

• 🛋️ Being carried and cuddled
• 🐶 Girl dogs and gets along with most pups
• 💬 Baby talk and being doted upon

He can be a little chi chi machismo with dominant male dogs, so a gentle pack is best.

Leash & Potty Notes:

• 🐾 Will walk well on leash and harness once he’s bonded and familiar with his surroundings
• ⚠️ Needs extra precaution at first—use a well-fenced area or doggie pen, plus leash and harness for the first few days
• 🚽 Will need a belly band indoors until he’s fully potty trained

Nemo’s ideal home:

• 💖 Has gentle, patient humans who understand decompression and bonding
• 🐕 Includes friendly female dogs or mellow companions
• 🚫 No small children, please

Nemo is a sweet, quiet, cuddly little prince who’s ready to be someone’s tiny shadow and snuggle buddy. He just needs that extra special person to help him feel safe, loved, and adored.

SOPHIA  is  currently being fostered in Texas

 🛏️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.

LILLY ANN  is  currently being fostered in Texas

🩷 Lilly Ann: A Gentle Soul Seeking Safety Thrown away once—now she’s ready to be treasured forever.

Lilly Ann is approximately 8 years old and weighs 6.8 lbs. She came to us after a heartbreaking incident—caught on a Ring camera as someone literally threw her onto a stranger’s porch. Thankfully, the kind family took her in and helped her find her way to rescue.

Upon arrival, Lilly Ann had a massive inguinal hernia and several bad teeth. She’s since been spayed, had a dental, and underwent hernia repair. While the hernia has reopened slightly, it’s now just a quarter of its original size. Because she didn’t tolerate anesthesia well, we’ve chosen not to pursue another surgery. She’s comfortable and doing well.

Lilly Ann is shy, loving, and a little timid. She may scream when picked up suddenly, but if you let her crawl into your lap or use a blanket, she settles beautifully. She’s super quiet, low-key, and a total lap dog. Her potty manners are excellent, and she’ll also use wee pads.

She may pant or pace for a few days while adjusting to a new person or place, but once she feels safe, she becomes incredibly cuddly and affectionate. She’s now eager for pets and snuggles from our team.

Lilly Ann is great with cats and dogs, and we believe she’d be fine with children as occasional visitors. However, she would not enjoy living full-time with hyper children or young, energetic dogs. She thrives in a calm, gentle environment. She is a truly peaceful, loving soul who deserves a life filled with kindness and security.

🌟 Lilly Ann: She’s ready to be someone’s soft place to land.
