Story
CALABOGIE, ON - Some dogs come into rescue because they were never loved. That couldn't be further from the truth for Cannelle. Cannelle has been cherished her entire life. Her family invested countless hours into training her, gave her structure and truly wanted her to succeed. Unfortunately, despite their love and dedication, they came to the heartbreaking realization that their home—with young children—simply wasn't the right environment for her. Making the decision to surrender a beloved family member is never easy, but sometimes love means recognizing that someone else may be able to give your dog the life they need. Cannelle's family made that incredibly difficult decision because they wanted what was best for her. When Cannelle arrived in foster care, she quickly showed us the dog she truly is. She is affectionate, intelligent, beautifully trained, eager to learn and loves being with her people. She travels well, has excellent house manners, settles happily in her crate, enjoys puzzle toys and has all the makings of an incredible companion. Is she perfect? No. Like many dogs, Cannelle has challenges. She is fearful of other dogs, has some resource guarding behaviours and because of her history with children, she needs a home that understands and respects her boundaries. The wonderful news is that Cannelle doesn't need someone to "fix" her. She simply needs the right family.

Story
Lionel’s life started in a loving home, but big changes left him without the stability he needed. His family circumstances changed and he (and his dog and cat siblings) found himself looking for a new home. At just four years old, Lionel found himself scared and unsure, suddenly needing to learn a whole new way of living. This big, goofy boy had grown up in a rural home without much exposure to strangers, new dogs, or busy environments. That lack of early socialization left him feeling overwhelmed when he first came into our care. But with patience, gentle handling, and the support of an experienced foster home, Lionel has begun to blossom. His true self—smart, affectionate, and just a little silly—shines brighter every day

Story
OTTAWA, ON - Thank you for your interest in Tundra. Some dogs arrive in rescue with simple stories. Tundra is not one of them. She is thoughtful, sensitive, expressive, and deeply devoted once she chooses her person. She is also a dog who has struggled in environments that moved too quickly for her comfort. Tundra feels the world intensely — and when she feels safe, she is incredibly sweet and loyal. She may not be the easiest dog — but she is an honest one. And in the right home, that honesty will blossom into something very special.

Story
OTTAWA, ON - Frida is a beautiful, two-year-old, Standard Poodle who is intelligent, affectionate and incredibly sensitive to the world around her. She is also a dog who needs her people to understand her communication and help her feel safe and secure. Frida came to SPIN because life in her previous home had become increasingly difficult for her. She is very sensitive to sudden movement and noise and, when overwhelmed, can become hypervigilant and reactive. She has also developed resource guarding behaviours. Her family worked with a behaviourist and made every effort to help her, but ultimately felt that they could no longer provide the environment Frida needed. Since coming into foster care, Frida has been able to relax and show us more of the sweet, curious and affectionate dog underneath her anxiety. She enjoys walks, car rides and spending time with other dogs in appropriate settings. She is highly food motivated, very intelligent and has an excellent nose—making activities such as scent work a particularly promising outlet for her. Frida is not a dog who will be comfortable in just any home. She needs people who are patient, observant and willing to let her build trust at her own pace. She will need continued positive behaviour support and a family who understands that helping her feel safe is more important than expecting her to immediately fit into their lifestyle. For the right family, however, watching Frida gain confidence and learn that she can trust her people could be incredibly rewarding. Let’s see what her foster family has to say about her.

Story
Thank you for your interest in River. River came to us from an owner who got him from somewhere in the USA. He arrived so fearful that the owner didn't really know what to do with him so he, and another dog, were kept in a shed with an attached yard. The owner didn't interact with them much and River thought that was absolutely fine. People are scary, the world is scary and he was comfortable in his little part of the world. Well, things changed the day River came to SPIN.

McGoo

Boxer Mutt

Male, Adult
Kinburn, ON
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Not good with dogs, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Mr. McGoo was found as a stray with poor coat quality. Rescues were unwilling to take him due to the medical cost required to address his skin. With our veterinarians help, he is ready to find his new home. He is currently on a hypo allergenic diet and weekly baths. We will soon try a new diet to see if he truly needs the special diet. He has been reactive to other dogs... he is now neutered and we are hoping his reactivity will decrease with time and proper owner handling. He would do best in a home without other pets and experienced dog owners. He currently knows his basic manners and is continuing to work on his reaction to dogs.
