Story
Meet Talon, a 1-year-old Border Collie mix with a big heart, big energy, and an even bigger love for his people! ⚡❤️ Talon is the definition of friendly - he warms up quickly, loves attention, and is always ready for fun. This boy has plenty of youthful energy and would thrive with an active family who enjoys walks, playtime, and keeping both his mind and body busy. Talon doesn't seem to dislike other dogs; however, he has shown some reactivity with food involved. He may be best suited as the only dog in the home or suitable to live with other pups as long as he can be separated during mealtime! He also isn't a fan of little ones, so an adult/older children only household is a must. Under all that excitement, Talon is incredibly sweet and affectionate-he absolutely loves being around his people and giving his whole heart to those he trusts. If you're looking for a smart, loving, high-energy companion who will join you on every adventure, Talon is ready to take flight with you! 🐾💙 Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 26.7 Age: 1yrs 0mths 1wks

ALL ABOUT ME Name: Luna Age: 1 year old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Border Collie-Jindo Mix Colour: White Weight: 12kg / 26.4lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY Hi, I’m Luna — a gentle, elegant girl with a quiet spirit and a big heart. I was rescued from the euthanasia list at the Busan City Shelter. Thanks to my rescuers, I’m now safe and well-cared for. What I need next is a forever home filled with calm, love, and the warmth of human connection.   MY HEALTH No known health issues   MY PERSONALITY I have the soft grace of a Border Collie — calm, intelligent, and quietly affectionate. I love being around people and enjoy outdoor time, but I settle just as easily indoors. I don’t need to be the center of attention — just near you is enough. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or a shared moment of eye contact, I bring peace wherever I go. I bond deeply and love quietly — I may not be loud, but I’m unforgettable.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I’m incredibly affectionate and polite. I approach both new and familiar people with gentle confidence, happily accepting pets and cuddles. I lean in close, make loving eye contact, and quietly melt into your arms. I’m calm, well-mannered, and deeply connected to the people I love. With Dogs: I’m friendly and social, especially with dogs my size. I enjoy calm play and respectful greetings. If another dog is aggressive or overwhelming, I prefer to walk away — no drama here. High-energy dogs can be a bit much for me, so I’d do best with calm or moderate-energy playmates. With Cats: I haven’t lived with cats yet, but given my gentle nature, I would likely adjust well with a slow and proper introduction.   ENERGY AND ACTIVITIES I have a moderate energy level — just the right mix of outdoor enjoyment and indoor calm. I enjoy going for walks and taking in the world around me. I may pull a little on the leash out of excitement, but I listen well and follow my handler’s guidance. Sudden noises might make me nervous, but I recover quickly with reassurance.   TRAINING & HABITS I don’t guard my food and eat peacefully around others I rest calmly in my kennel I rarely bark — I’m a peaceful presence in the home I’m mostly potty-trained and do well with outdoor bathroom routines I’m eager to keep learning with patience and positive reinforcement   MY IDEAL HOME I’d love a gentle, loving family who appreciates quiet companionship and emotional connection. My ideal home would include:   A calm, low-stress environment where I can truly relax People who enjoy soft cuddles, nature walks, and peaceful days A secure space where I feel safe, respected, and part of the family Ideally a home with another friendly, calm dog — but I’m also content as your one-and-only   SPECIAL NOTES I’m not the loudest dog in the room — but I’m one of the most loyal. I bring a soft, healing energy that’s hard to describe but easy to feel. I’m elegant, intuitive, and gentle to the core. If you’re looking for a best friend who will walk beside you through calm and quiet moments, I’m right here waiting for you. ##2559291##

Story
Currently in a Toronto foster home I might be a mix, but I’ve got the best of both worlds — the smarts of a Border Collie and the focus of a Jindo. I’m clever, full of energy, and once I love you, I love you with all my heart. I was born in an old abandoned house, far from people and care. But when I was just 3 months old, kind humans rescued me and brought me to a warm, safe foster home. That’s where I spent the first 2 years of my life, learning what it means to be loved and to live indoors. Due to some changes in my foster family’s life, I had to move to a training center. At first, everything was unfamiliar and a little scary… but I surprised everyone by adjusting quickly! Now I get along great with the trainers, and I love learning new things. I’m really good at understanding people — not just their words, but their feelings too. When I meet someone new, I might hesitate for a moment. But give me a little time and kindness, and you’ll see the real me — sweet, affectionate, and even a little silly. I also get along well with other dogs and know how to play nicely without causing trouble. I love walks and being outdoors, and I’m happiest when I can explore the world with someone I trust. After some fun and exercise, I’m more than happy to relax quietly at home. I’ve got a calm, sensitive side too. I’ve spent most of my life around women, so I might be a bit shy around men at first. But please don’t worry — with patience and gentle care, I’ll come closer, lean in, and show you how much love I have to give. What I’m really looking for is someone who’s ready to build a bond — who’ll walk with me, talk with me, and understand that trust takes time but grows deep. If that sounds like you, I think we could be a perfect match. I’m ready to give my heart. Are you ready to be my forever family? 💛 Love, Dior

Story
Quick Facts • Name: Cookie• Age: 6 years old• Gender: Male• Neutered: Yes• Breed: Collie Jindo mix• Colour: Golden beige• Weight: 18 kg   All About MeHello world! My name is Cookie and I’m currently 6 years old. When you first see me, you’ll just love the way I look. I have collie’s narrow head shape with silky golden-beige coat. Too bad I can’t show off my appearance now, but please do check my YouTube link attached (don’t forget to “Like” and “Subscribe” our channel heehee!) for details! You’ll just fall in love with me.   Social SkillsDid you know that I love hooman and furry friends? I just love everyone!!! Although I’m kennel-trained, when you open the kennel, I often jump and run only because I’m just so happy all the time. I’m full of curiosity, energy (not too much though), and love to greet new friends. Yes. I love socializing! When I meet new friends I usually approach them first. For hoomans, when I first meet them, I get so excited that I jump up and down. But don’t get me wrong. This doesn’t mean I’m being aggressive. So please be patient with me. I’m sure I can improve if you train me. Many hoomans describe me as an intelligent dog and I totally agree with it! It must be my collie DNA or something as I can easily tell how hoomans feel. I think I’m born with it. So again, if you train me, I know I’ll be a good companion. Cats? What’s that? I don’t even know who they are and I have no idea how I’ll react when I see them.   Energy and ActivitiesI enjoy outdoor activities, especially long-walks and hiking as I’m a good walker. It takes a lot of my energy so when I come home, I like to sit and rest peacefully. I usually don’t bark and stay nicely in a kennel. I also don’t guard my food against hoomans and furry friends. I generally take my potty break outside. When I visit new places, I tend to mark so please keep that in mind.   Special NotesI can still remember my first time entering my shelter back in 2018. I was a skinny little puppy and it’s already been 6 years ever since! Despite my time in the shelter, many hoomans say “Cookie is a great, calm dog.” I’m so ready to bring warmth and joy to your home! If you’re looking for a sweet, loving, and clever companion, I’m the one! Let’s make some wonderful memories together   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Cookie's YouTube Playlist ##2458091##

Story
Quick Facts • Name: Choco• Age: 2 years old• Gender: Male• Neutered: Yes• Breed: Border Collie Mix• Color: Black and Brown• Weight: 13 kg / 28.6 lbs• Microchip: Yes   My HealthI’ve had all my vaccinations completed and tested negative for heartworm in November 2024. I also had surgery on both of my hind knees in May 2025, and my vet said everything went perfectly. I’m walking and playing like a champ! I’m healthy, active, and ready for adventures with the right guidance.   My PersonalityI’m a sensitive and observant boy. New places and new faces make me cautious at first, but give me a little time and I’ll warm up quickly. I love people and, once I trust you, I’ll come right over for pets, cuddles, and a little attention. I have a gentle and affectionate side that shines once I feel safe.   My Social Life• With People: I take a moment to get comfortable with new humans, but I love showing affection to those I trust. I haven’t met young children yet, so I’d do best with older kids or adults who understand gentle communication and can give me time to adjust.• With Other Dogs: I enjoy meeting other dogs, especially those my size or a bit smaller. I feel more confident when other dog friends are around and love peaceful playtime.• With Cats: I haven’t met any cats yet, so I’m open to learning and meeting them slowly.   On My WalksWalks are exciting and full of discovery! I sometimes feel unsure around new sights or sounds, but with gentle guidance, I quickly find my courage. I enjoy following my human’s lead and exploring at a calm, curious pace.   Life at HomeI’m a calm and easygoing housemate once I’ve settled in. I don’t guard my food with people, though I may give a gentle “hands-off” signal to other dogs at mealtime. I use both indoor pads and outdoor spaces for potty. I’m good at letting you know if I need something or if I spot a stranger. I can get a bit car sick and might mark a little when visiting a new place, but with time and patience, I adjust quickly.   My Ideal HomeI’d thrive in a home with patient, loving humans who understand that a little time and training will help me shine. Someone who enjoys helping a boy build confidence and exploring the world with care would be perfect. I’m a loyal, affectionate companion who will be your devoted friend once I feel secure and loved. I can’t wait to meet my forever family and share all my love and loyalty every single day.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Choco’s YouTube Playlist ##2516970##

Story
**Note: Currently, Camper is in Korea, but he will fly to Toronto upon adoption. Background This handsome boy was rescued from a slaughterhouse in the summer of 2022 in Daegu, Korea. After his rescue, he lived in a local shelter for three years but couldn’t find a home in Korea. After hearing his story, we brought him to our boarding house, knowing that a loving family is waiting for him in Canada or the US. His forever home is out there, and he is ready to find it. Personality & Behavior Camper is a wonderful Border Collie with a sweet and gentle personality. He has medium energy, much calmer than a typical Border Collie, making him well-mannered and easygoing. He is social and friendly, not shy around strangers, and he gets along beautifully with other dogs. Camper is never dominant or aggressive; he is always polite and affectionate. Among people at the shelter, he is one of the sweetest and most popular dogs, loved by volunteers for his friendly and gentle nature. Daily Life & Habits Camper is well-behaved both indoors and outdoors. He goes potty outside and is easy to care for. He handles bath time and car ride well, and walks nicely on leash, though he sometimes gets excited by new sights during walks. He does not like being caged but has shown no signs of separation anxiety or destructive behavior. Camper is simply a sweet, well-mannered boy who makes life easy and enjoyable. Health & Diet Camper has been on regular parasite prevention since his rescue and has had full veterinary checkups. He is dewormed, microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccines. He is healthy, happy, and ready for his forever home. Camper eats kibble twice a day and has shown no food allergies. Ideal Home Camper is smart, quick to learn, and very sociable. He will thrive in a home that enjoys spending time outdoors. While he does not require excessive exercise like some Border Collies, he enjoys daily walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. He will happily balance activity with relaxation and is a perfect companion for a family who loves to include their dog in their outdoor lifestyle. Whoever adopts Camper will be very lucky to have such a gentle, affectionate, and loyal friend. ------------------------------------- For more info about the dog or the adoption application, please follow the link below.
