Buddy is a superactive, playful, and social Labradoodle who thrives on activity and interaction. He loves walks, playing fetch, and splashing in water, his absolute favorite activity.

He spends his day exploring the backyard, having a snack, resting, and winding down after dinner and an evening walk, usually sleeping by 7-8 p.m.Buddy would do best in an active household with a backyard, though he can adapt to other settings with regular morning and evening walks. He's great with both young and older kids, making him a wonderful family companion.He's trained in basic commands, crate-trained, and well-behaved with no separation anxiety.

Story

Hello! My name is Scooby!I`m a charming love muffin who enjoys meeting new people. I may get excited and be a bit jumpy but I`m super smart and am learning about lots of cool manners. I love to snuggle with human beings. The more pets, the better. I am a giant puppy and I move like one - uncoordinated bouncing and leaping. I can be mouthy, like I said, I`m a giant puppy, but I`m pretty gentle about it. I would love to join a home that has the time and interest in continuing my training!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers would be good, no young kiddos given my size and tendency to be jumpy.OTHER DOGS: Yes, with a dog who would love to run and play with me but won`t be upset by my initial barking.CATS: No, I don`t think a cat friend would enjoy my exuberance.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has large breed dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Required.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any, with a fully-fenced in yard.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily, though I might not be the best match for a home with humans who are gone for a full work day.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-high.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!FOSTER ME!

Story

Hello! My name is Pippin!I`m a sensitive guy who can get stressed when things change. I love stability and routine, but who doesn`t, right!? I have been spending my time in a wonderful foster home where I`m learning to feel safe and I`m coming out of my shell.

Mikka

Labrador Retriever

Female, 2 yrs 4 mos

Guelph, ON

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Hello! My name is Mikka!I`m a sweet and gentle girl looking for a loving home! I enjoy playing with toys and would love a home where I will get lots play time and outdoor adventures! I do enjoy chew toys, so hopefully my new family is happy to provide me with lots of fun things to chew. I have been in a wonderful foster home for a while now and we`ve learned that I love car rides and I might be a water dog - rain doesn`t scare me and I`m very interested in the bathtub when water starts flowing into it! I am scared of getting into trouble. My foster humans are doing a good job of showing me that I`m a good girl and nothing bad is going to happen, but sadly, likely due to my past, my first reaction is still to cower when I think someone is going to do something scary. I would really benefit from a gentle, kind home where the humans will continue to help me feel safe and build my confidence. I am a snuggly girl who would appreciate humans who enjoy dog cuddles!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be fine. No young children given I can be timid.OTHER DOGS: Yes, with a well-matched dog of similar or larger size. I enjoy chasing and running but don`t like rough and tumble puppy energy.CATS: No, given my prey drive.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: Yes, if you have some experience with dogs and recognizing nervous body language.FENCED-IN YARD: Applicants with a fully-fenced yard would be preferred given I can be reactive to dogs & wildlife on leash, so a yard gives us a nice break from walks.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings given I can be skittish and don`t love other dogs in my personal bubble.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the “Adopt Me” button to apply!
