Hi, its me Milo!! Some of you may have been following my story for the past couple years wondering if I'd actually ever be up for adoption... well as of today I am!! I do need a very special home because I have a few quirks that my foster mom thinks I'm still going to be dealing with for a long time.

I have a huge fear of confinement. I hate kennels, vehicles and being picked up, basically anything that impedes a means of escape. Right now, I have a safe space in my foster moms bedroom. I love it under the bed. Out of sight, hard to get to me, but I have a few directions to go if I am scared. I stay in her room with the door closed when she goes to work. For a while she left one of my foster sister dogs in the room with me, but she figured out I get pretty excited and I chewed a lot of toys, blankets and things that she didn't like. When I'm by myself I don't do such naughty things usually. A couple times when I've been out in the rest of the house the bedroom door has closed from wind or another dog bumping it... boy that freaks me out... I mean I need access to my room just in case! I'm working on being braver.

This next quirk isn't just a me problem... my mom says some dogs just are like this. I'm pretty scared of toddlers. I mean, they are so little and unsteady on their feet. I bark at them and try to keep them from getting close to me. My foster mom has taught me that biting is really bad and I should always bark and back up, which is what I do. I also like to herd things so if kids are running around I bark and chase them. My foster mom says with my history of being so scared of people its probably best not to push the limits with children.

I don't like strangers to pet me, but boy do I like getting treats. I was taught to "touch" with my nose, and I love to go up to any person and boop them with my nose in hopes of getting a treat! I also know to sit, down and sit pretty. I do a version of shake a paw but I'm super sensitive about people touching my feet especially the front ones so I just touch your closed hand and expect a treat. I know to sit nice and make eye contact for my meals too. I'm a pretty smart cookie. I recently accepted my mom trying to put this crazy harness on me so I don't choke myself if I'm excited on a walk. She has to reach under my tummy to grab it and it took a while to trust she wasn't going to pick me up, but mostly now I just stand super still and wait. I get a treat once its on, so its an okay deal!

I totally love to walk. I mean I did a 5km walk in the rain to get to the vet for my vaccines and neuter. She was really proud of me, and I was such a good boy, hardly any pulling after the first couple blocks.

I talk too much my mom says. I spent the first year in care in the house because I wouldn't listen, wear a collar or leash and I never said a word. But now that I feel safe and I'm taken care of, healthy and happy, I need to let the world know! I bark when I'm excited, which is often... when my mom gets home from anywhere, when its walk time, food time, when my foster siblings play and I need to police them. I mean its a pretty darn good world when you have someone you trust to keep you safe.

I totally adore female dogs. They are the best. I have 2 sisters that I protect... even from my mom. She's always hugging them and cleaning their eyes... I tell her not too, but she just looks at me and keeps doing it. I also protect my girls from the annoying foster boys that live with me. I try to nip them sometimes even though they are way bigger than me. A couple times my mom wasn't close enough and I got grabbed and bit. She said it was my own fault and I should be "friends" but its hard... other boy dogs suck. She says my new home with either be just me, or maybe a cat friend, or a girl dog... come on girl dog!

So, I've been going on for a bit now. My mom says she can tell you tons more about me if you think I might fit into your home or family so please fill in an adoption application and my mom will contact you! I will need several meetings with you before I can be moved to a new family. My mom is very protective of my progress and doesn't want to set me back.

Thanks for reading all this... I mentioned I was a talker!

bubaloo

Name: Bubaloo (Bubba)
Best Breed Guess: Lab - Boxer Cross
Age: 1.5 years
Weight: 85 pounds
Sex: Male
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Up to date on age appropriate vaccinations: Yes
Kennel trained: ​ Yes

Hi I’m Bubba! I’m a big fun loving guy. I’m told by my foster mom that I’m very smart and pretty well behaved for such a young guy. I love to play and run and be silly, but I try really hard to follow all the rules, like not jumping up on people, or furniture. I sit really well for my supper and to get my leash on for walks. During the day when my family goes to work I hang out in my kennel. I run there as soon as I think it's time for everyone to leave. But sometimes I don't have to go in my kennel, like when my foster mom walks the other dogs I live with. And she says I’m so good even being left out.
Sometimes I talk too much she says. If I’m really bored I like to tell mom so. Then I'll try to find a toy or a bone to play with if the other dogs won't play. When I hear her car pull up, or the mailman comes I also need to say something.
I’m a bit scared of meeting new people. I bark and growl. But my foster mom has this word “friends" she keeps saying. And if I stop growling and look at her instead I get treats. I guess she doesn't want me to do that, so I'm working on it. Might take some time to trust so many new people. I really do love my family with all my heart once I feel comfortable and safe with them. Mom says I need a patient new family that will continue to teach me about being friends.
There's lots more to know about me, so if you think I might be a good fit in your family you should put in an app and my foster mom can fill you in on the rest!

nala

Age: 10 weeks
Weight: 14 pounds
Sex: Female

Hello, did my cute profile picture catch your attention?

My name is Nala and my foster mom says I'm the sweetest thing ever and so very smart. I am named after Nala from the lion king as I'm told it means beloved and I am very loved. I want to be your best friend like Nala was to Simba and love you up with puppy snuggles.

I play hard, rest hard and love people but can be a bit reserved at first. I also love rolling in grass and playing with my canine foster sister.

My foster Mom says I have a very laid back personality and I am usually calm and chill for a puppy. I even sleep through the night by myself in the kennel.

I have already learned that if I sit nice I will get a treat and I am working on laying down. We are working hard on this whole peeing thing and my foster Mom always tell me what a good girl I am, when I go pee outside. Now when she tells me to “go pee”, I even know what she wants. The odd time I don't notice in time to get outside and have to use my pee pad in the house. My foster Mom says that is okay as I am still pretty little.

If you are looking for a sweet companion please put in an application and let my foster Mom rave about what an amazing gal I am!

Greetings everyone. My name is Honey, or as my foster mom likes to call me, Honey Boo Boo.

I've heard that something called winter is coming and that it's chilly. I would really like to find someone to cuddle with before that happens, as that is my favourite activity. I love to fall asleep in my foster mom's arms watching TV on the couch and even like to sleep on her feet when she is cooking! Wherever my human is, so am I.

I really love cats, especially if they let me hang out with them. Sometimes when big dogs bark, I can get a bit scared as I am very submissive. But I do still like dogs, I just wish they all liked me.

I am kennel trained, but I still get sad for a few minutes if my humans are leaving. My crying stops quickly, but I just want to let them know how much I am going to miss them before they go. I am good at using training pads, and will go to the washroom outside if I am out there, but like most puppies, I get distracted easily and forget to ask to go out. I am working hard on this skill.

I don't really understand toys yet, but when my sister plays with them, I am very curious about what she is doing. I am hoping to figure this out soon.

I hope you put your application in soon. I'd love to be your Honey!

sugar

Name: Sugar
Best Breed Guess: Pyrenees Lab cross
Age: born Aug 19/2019
Weight: 11 pounds
Sex: Female
Spayed/Neutered:  Not old enough
Up to date on age appropriate vaccinations: Yes
Kennel trained: ​ Yes, as long as I have a treat and toy when going inside.
House/Potty trained: Working on it
Adoption Fee: $375 ($100 refunded after proof of sterilization) 
Good with kids: yes
Good with cats: yes, I have two kitty foster siblings and I listen to them very well.
Good with other dogs: yes

Hello, my name is Sugar, and you guessed it, I am as sweet as can be! I do have my spicy/ sassy side and can be a bit stubborn but my foster momma says I am so cute that I am easily forgiven.

I really like to play hard and sleep hard. My sister can't always keep up with me, so I am hoping my new family will have some members that enjoy play time. I like all dogs and cats and listen really well to them when they tell me they don't want to be near me.

I like to spend time outside, and am a fan of any weather. If you have toys outside, I will like it even more. I have also just discovered squeaky toys and whoever invented those is a genius! They bring me fun for hours!

I am very food motivated and will do anything for a cookie or bone. I have figured out how to sit when there are no other exciting distractions around. I am very good in the kennel and like to chew on a nylabone or cuddle my stuffed gingerbread man. Potty training is hard work because I haven't figured out how to ask the human to let me out, but if you remember to put me outside often enough, I do very well.

If you need a little sweetness in your life, I'm your girl. I am sugar and spice and everything nice!

hershey

Name: Hershey
Best Breed Guess: Shepherd cross
Age: 4 months
Weight: 22 pounds
Sex: Female
Spayed/Neutered:  Not old enough
Up to date on age appropriate vaccinations: Yes
Kennel trained: ​ Yes
House/Potty trained: Mostly
Adoption Fee: $375 ($100 refunded after proof of sterilization) 
Good with kids: yes
Good with cats: working on it
Good with other dogs: yes

I was named Hershey because I am as sweet as a Hershey Kiss. I am a smart dog and like cuddles after I have tired myself out from playing. I came from up north and felt pretty important as I got a ride on an RCMP plane to Regina with 5 other puppies.

I am good at going in the kennel as long as you throw in a treat, but it is not my favorite place to be yet. Oh, and I do sleep all night now without having to be put out!

I am a little reserved when meeting new people, but once I get to know that you are friendly, I warm up to you right away.

I get along with my foster brother but he is older and not very playful, so he is teaching me that not all dogs want to play with me. I am also learning not to bark or chase the cat in the house.

I am learning to sit now and come when called. I am willing to learn and especially love getting treats! House training is doing well, but I’m still learning and can have accidents. I try to use the pee pads but sometimes mistake a mat for one.

My foster family say I am a sweet girl who loves to play hard with my toys. After all the rough-housing, I love to have a nap to restore my energy. As I’m still a puppy, I am learning not to bite humans and only bite my toys. I really like to chew on things so I need lots of chew toys and chewing treats. I love having someone to play with as it gets lonely when I have no one. On nice days I love to run and play outside and investigate all the new things in the yard.

I would be an excellent companion for kids and can't wait for my forever home. I will make an excellent family member and lifelong friend!

harley

Name: Harley
Best Breed Guess: Stafford Terrier cross
Age: Approx 8 months
Weight: 40 pounds
Sex: Female
Spayed/Neutered:  Yes
Up to date on age appropriate vaccinations: Yes
Kennel trained: ​ No, they are scary
House/Potty trained: Mostly
Adoption Fee: $275
Good with kids: yes,  loves kids
Good with cats: Unknown
Good with other dogs: With proper introductions and time

Hi everyone! Don’t you just love my fawn brindle colouring and unique ‘tiger stripes’?! I am really just learning to trust the kindness of humans, and am beginning to develop my confidence. Things were a bit rough before I came to my foster home so I think I’m going to need a furever home that will be extra patient with me as I find my way. I am leery of new places, other dogs and cars. I really need my foster family to help me feel comfortable and safe. My foster mom says I have the sweetest personality, and that you should know I love to chew bones and cuddle up with my people. I feel very uncomfortable in a kennel but I do like to hang out under chairs and watch the world go by. I sleep quietly in the laundry room; it’s my own personal safe space. My favourite spot by far though is the couch; I am an ace at couch naps! After a time, I became great friends with my foster brother and I love to wrestle and chase him! I am initially scared of other dogs but with proper introductions and patience my foster mom feels like I would would benefit from having a sibling to help me navigate the world more confidently. I had a rough start and I think I deserve a family that will show me patience and love. Do you have a comfy couch that I could curl up on? How about buckets patience and love to give to me? I would love to meet you!

We have more dogs coming soon!
