Story
I’ve had Nova since she was a pup. She is now 7 years old. She’s a loving dog who deserves to have a big yard to run around in, which I was never able to provide. She has lots of energy, loves walks and car rides. She doesn’t do well with kids. She likes to chase cats around and try and play with them.

Story
MIXED BREED PUPPY AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! Jewel came to us along with her mom and six siblings on March 10 at just three days old. Mom Bella is as sweet as can be, a trait that was passed along to her puppies. She’s a petite mix weighing about 40 pounds (see photo); dad is unknown. Five of the litter have been adopted, with just Ben and Jewel still patiently waiting. Jewel has beautiful blue eyes as did one of her sisters, hinting at perhaps some Husky or Aussie. She has her basic training down pat and has learned to do her business outside. Jewel is playful, well socialized and a quick learner. She clearly enjoys the company of people and is ready to settle in with her forever family. Jewel is healthy, has received two sets of vaccinations, deworming treatment and is microchipped. Sterilization at our vet at about 10 months of age is included in the $795 adoption fee. If you’re ready for a lifetime commitment and interested in opening your home to Jewel, please complete an adoption questionnaire on our website at www.kikodogrescue.ca. We are active in the Greater Montreal and Eastern Ontario areas and are also open to applicants from elsewhere willing to drive to us.

Story
LAB MIX AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION Meet handsome Lab mix Ozzy, who found himself in need of a new home when his owner passed away. He didn’t come with any background information, so his exact age is unknown, but he’s around 2.5 years old. Ozzy is a playful guy and is currently being fostered with two other dogs. He has also lived with a cat, although he would also be fine as an only pet. He’s energetic and can play fetch for hours, so a home with a fenced yard would be ideal. Being a Lab mix, he might even like a kiddie pool to cool off in on hot summer days. Ozzy is good on leash and greets other pooches nicely and is also great in the car. He can be left loose in the house without issue while his people are at work. Ozzy loves attention and being close to his people, so be prepared for an affectionate companion. He has lived with children aged 12+ and will make an awesome pet for an active family, couple or single. Ozzy was examined by our vet and got a clean bill of health. He received his vaccinations and was recently neutered and microchipped, which is all included in his $675 adoption fee. If you’re interested in adopting Ozzy, please complete the adoption questionnaire on our website at www.kikodogrescue.ca. We are active in the Greater Montreal and Eastern Ontario areas and are also open to applicants from elsewhere willing to drive to us.

Schnauzer (Standard)

Story
Our 50-pound, 4.5-year-old Schnauzer mix River is extremely loving and affectionate with his own people, but it’s a different story with visitors. Negative behaviour was created as a result of having been put in a room when visitors arrived. Because of this, River needs an experienced adopter who is prepared to work with him with a basket muzzle to help manage and overcome this reaction when people visit his home. LIFESTYLE: River needs a calm single or couple with a quiet lifestyle and few visitors. A semi-rural or rural environment would suit him best. River would not be suitable for apartment life, and no dog parks or children please. ACTIVE: River is playful and moderately active. He enjoys walks when there is not a lot going on around him, but responds well to redirection and positive reinforcement. OTHER PETS: River would be fine as an only dog, but a well-behaved female canine role model may be beneficial. Don’t be fooled by River’s cuteness. He needs a dedicated pack leader to show him the way. If that sounds like you, a very loving companion awaits. If you are interested in offering River a forever home, we ask that you please visit us at www.kikodogrescue.ca to fill out an adoption questionnaire. All Kiko dogs have been examined by a veterinarian, vaccinated, dewormed and tested for heartworm (if deemed necessary), microchipped, sterilized, and require an adoption fee of $475 and an adoption contract.
