My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dima est une magnifique chienne de 5 ans, douce, calme et très attachante. Elle cherche un nouveau foyer car son propriétaire doit quitter définitivement le pays. À la maison, elle est propre, posée et adore se détendre auprès de ses humains.

Très intelligente et curieuse, Dima aime les longues promenades, les explorations et les jeux de recherche. Elle s’épanouirait particulièrement dans des activités comme le pistage ou le nose work. C’est aussi une chienne sociable, habituée aux interactions respectueuses avec les autres chiens, et à l’aise avec les enfants. Les chats et petits animaux sont à éviter.

N’ayant pas été exposée à beaucoup d’inconnus, Dima a besoin d’un adoptant patient, capable de lui offrir des introductions lentes et positives. Elle peut être protectrice de son foyer, mais reste très équilibrée dans un environnement serein.

Foyer idéal :
- Calme et stable
- Sans chats
- Personne seule, couple ou famille
- Promenades longues et régulières + activités mentales
- Introductions progressives aux nouvelles personnes/situations

Loyale, vive d’esprit et profondément affectueuse, Dima fera le bonheur d’un adoptant prêt à lui offrir douceur, sécurité et belles aventures.

Dima is a beautiful 5-year-old German Shepherd—gentle, calm, and deeply loving. She is looking for a new home because her owner must leave the country permanently. At home, she is clean, peaceful, and loves relaxing by her person’s side.

Highly intelligent and curious, Dima enjoys long walks, exploring new places, and engaging in searching or scent-based games. She would especially thrive with activities like tracking or nose work. She is also sociable, used to respectful interactions with other dogs, and comfortable around children. Cats and small animals should be avoided.

Since she hasn’t been exposed to many strangers, Dima needs an adopter who can offer slow, positive introductions. She can be protective of her home, but she remains well-balanced in a calm and reassuring environment.

Ideal Home:

Calm and stable

No cats

Single person, couple, or family

Long regular walks + mental enrichment

Gradual introductions to new people and environments

Loyal, sharp-minded, and deeply affectionate, Dima will be the perfect companion for someone ready to offer her security, patience, and wonderful adventures.

More about this shelter

Founded in Montreal in 1869, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (now known simply as the Montreal SPCA) was the first animal-welfare organization in Canada. It is not known under whose influence the society was formed, but its history acknowledges assistance from animal-welfare societies in France, England and the United States. In its early years, the SPCA concentrated primarily on improving the treatment of work horses, which were used all across the island of Montreal. The SPCA later began working on additional issues, such as humane dog control, cock-fighting and the killing of wild birds. The SPCA has come a long way since its beginnings: today, it is the largest animal-protection organization in Quebec, speaking on behalf of animals wherever there is ignorance, cruelty, exploitation or neglect.
