My story

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

Lily est une chienne de 10 ans pleine de vie, très proche des humains. Elle est amicale avec les étrangers, adore les enfants et recherche beaucoup la présence de ses gardiens.

Son niveau d’énergie est élevé : elle a besoin de dépenses physiques régulières, combinées à des périodes de repos bien encadrées. En balade, certains points sont à travailler (rappel, gestion des distractions).

Avec les chiens, Lily peut être insécure et nécessite des introductions lentes et contrôlées. La cohabitation avec les chats n’est pas possible.

À la maison, elle est propre, à l’aise avec les manipulations et ne montre pas de protection de ressources pour ses jouets. Elle souffre toutefois d’anxiété de séparation et tolère difficilement la solitude. Elle a été sous médication pour l’anxiété par le passé, arrêtée en septembre 2025.

Lily recherche un foyer expérimenté, présent, actif et prêt à l’accompagner dans son cheminement. En retour, elle offrira une immense dose d’amour et de loyauté envers sa future famille !

Lily is a 10-year-old dog full of life and very people-oriented. She is friendly with strangers, loves children, and seeks a lot of closeness and interaction with her caregivers.

She has a high energy level and needs regular physical activity, balanced with well-structured rest periods. On walks, some training will be needed, including recall and managing distractions.

With other dogs, Lily can feel insecure and requires slow, controlled introductions. She cannot live with cats.

At home, Lily is house-trained, comfortable with handling, and does not show resource guarding with her toys. However, she struggles with separation anxiety and finds being alone difficult. She was previously on anxiety medication, which was discontinued in September 2025.

Lily is looking for an experienced, present, and active home ready to support her along her journey. In return, she will offer an incredible amount of love and loyalty to her future family!

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.
