Story
We've made the very difficult decision to find a new home for our two beautiful golden retrievers, Juke and Bailey. They'll be turning two this May and are littermates - brother and sister, so it's incredibly important to us that they stay together. We got Juke and Bailey from a breeder when they were just puppies. From the beginning, they've been sweet-natured, gentle, and incredibly affectionate. They've grown up in a busy household with five kids, and while they're well-socialized and patient, they would thrive in a calmer environment with more consistent one-on-one attention and space to roam. They are both house-trained, and have had some good obedience training. They are playful, loyal, and cuddly; truly classic golden retrievers in every sense of the word. Juke is the more laid-back of the two, while Bailey has a bit more spunk and curiosity, but they balance each other out beautifully. They are a bonded pair and love to be around people and each other.

Story
I'm reaching out in the hope that someone with other dogs would consider taking in my beloved Simba who needs a new home due to a situation that has become unmanageable in my household. My dog, Simba, is exceptional in many ways. He's great with other dogs, thrives in social environments like the dog park where we often run together, and is comfortable with people he knows as well as in public settings. However, he has developed a territorial behavior when strangers enter our home, which has led to biting incidents. Despite efforts to address this through training, his reactions are unpredictable and happen suddenly. With three teenage daughters and friends frequently visiting our home, this behavior has become too significant a risk, and I feel I have no choice but to find him a new home. This decision is heartbreaking for me and my family as he is perfect, gentle, loyal, playful and amazing in every other way. However, he needs a controlled environment, best with another dog

Story
Cosmic Brownie (Cosmo) is a 17 month Busky (Beagle-Husky) that was privately adopted after he was rescued with the rest of his litter. He's a high energy boy who loves a good game of tug of war. He enjoys a good walk and will keep up with your pace even with his short stature lol. He's still a little nervous with new people and can be pretty vocal about it (sounds alot scarier than he is which is not at all lol). He's a heavy chewer so he needs good quality toys, nothing soft or plushy. He has basic training including crate, potty, sit, down, off, to bed, and paw. He's still learning manners and recall and will need someone dedicated to helping him with that. He really needs a more active family with space for him to run and play. He loves to try and play with our cats but they're not fans. He's good with our daughter but he is too active so she doesn't feel comfortable with him. He's a great dog with a ton of potential with the right family!

Story
PK is a beautiful fun-loving Husky/German Shepard. I am hoping to rehome PK as I work a lot and it saddens me to see him unstimulated and unhappy when I am not home. My disabled mom has also developed an allergic reaction to PK and I am not able to keep him for much longer. PK is very energetic, so having a big space to run and/or having regular walks and play time are important. I am hoping that PK will be adopted and find a loving home that could provide him with all the love and attention that he needs and deserves. I will be providing $400 to PK's new adoptive parent(s) to help with giving him the best possible comfortable living conditions.

Story
Meet Nyla, our beautiful Samoyed born on August 4th, 2019. She’s a little smaller than the typical Samoyed, which makes her even more unique and cuddly. Nyla is a gentle, affectionate dog who enjoys companionship, light play, and relaxing with her people. Like all Samoyeds, Nyla does shed and benefits from regular grooming to keep her coat healthy and comfortable. She’s used to the attention and care, and it’s a great bonding time for her. We’re heartbroken to rehome her, but due to an upcoming move across provinces, we’re unable to bring her along. We’re looking for a responsible and loving home that can provide her with the care and companionship she deserves. Ideal home: Has time for daily companionship and grooming Provides a safe and calm environment Familiar with—or willing to learn about—Samoyed care There is an adoption fee of $300USD to help ensure serious inquiries and a committed new home. That said, if you feel you're the perfect fit but the fee is a barrier
