My story

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

Current Foster Location: Brockville, ON

Hi, I’m Raph — I'm a backyard explorer, tail-wagging greeter, and all-around great guy.

I love sniffing every inch of the yard (daily patrols are important), going for walks, and cruising in the car. I get along with everyone—dogs, people, probably squirrels too if they’d hold still.

I listen well, love to be greeted with a smile (and return the favour), and I’m happiest when I’m hanging out with my best friend Samantha. We’re a perfect pair—calm, affectionate, and full of life.

If you're looking for two wonderful little companions who will fit right into your life and your heart, we’re it. Seriously. You couldn’t ask for better dogs.
