Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.BANFF hails from Fort Severn, a Northern Ontario community and came south with his 5 siblings, Yamaska, Arisaig, Makwa, Algonquin & Kokanee (they’re known as the Provincial Parks Litter) and he came south to find his forever home. He’s had 2 sets of puppy vaccines, a microchip, “Interceptor Plus” dewormer and has been deemed a healthy boy by his Vet. We actually have a video showing both parents and mum looks like a medium sized Collie/Old English Sheepdog and his dad possibly a large sized black Lab/Border Collie/Shepherd.  Mum also has an undercoat so Husky had to b in there somewhere too. We do also see Newfoundlander breed in the litter so we do expect him to be a large breed dog. He comes from a community with many stray dogs so he no doubt has many different breeds in him that are not as notable as well. He’s a very placid, laid back, gentle little fella who loves his humans almost as much as he loves taking naps. He’s well socialized with people and will excitedly run up to greet them with a wagging tail. He loves his snuggles and will happily curl up in your lap to get lots of them.  BANFF is a happy-go-lucky, adventurous puppy who’s full of playfulness and curiosity. He’ll chase the squeaky toys around and also chase after a tennis ball. He’s very food motivated and does have his kibble in a slow feeder to help him slow down while eating. With his love of food he is very eager to be rewarded for good behaviour and while learning new commands so it should be noted that he’s very easy to train because of the reward waiting for him. With his lovely personality and good nature he’s ready to find his forever home where he can continue to thrive and grow. BANFF is crate trained and he sleeps quietly in it at night and will also nap in it during the day. He loves going out for walks and is very good at taking his bathroom breaks outside. He’s not quite housetrained yet as he’s not quite at the stage where he’ll ask you to take him outside to go but it’s more you have to watch for the signs that he needs a bathroom break. He’s loves going on his daily walks and gets excited when he knows he’s going on one. He walks with a harness and a collar to prevent pulling on his neck. Due to teething he’s at a chewing stage and needs lots of chewy toys to satisfy that urge not to chew on anything that he shouldn’t. Nyla bones work great as well as bamboo type bones. He’s starting to learn a few basic commands already and he knows to “sit” for his meals and take treats “gentle.” BANFF would enjoy a family who’s more laid back like he is. He does loves the outdoors though so they should be active and enjoy going on hikes, walks and will take him on adventures with them. He travels well in a vehicle and will just rest in his crate and quietly enjoy being driven around. He isn’t fostered with a dog but if there’s one in the home then they should be chill and placid like he is and they’d be fine putting up with puppy antics. He’s fostered with two older puppies and they love to chase and play with him. He would suit being with another dog in the home as long as they’re quiet and chill just like he is and definitely not a dominant dog. He can be an only dog as long as he’s not left alone for long periods at a time. He does have a cat in his foster home but the cat isn’t interested in interacting with a puppy at his stage of life. If there is one in the home then a younger one would be more suitable for a curious puppy. We also recommend a slow, monitored introduction be done while the dog is kept leashed for the initial introductions. He requires a fenced-in yard so he can run around and play safely so he wouldn’t suit being in an apartment and that’s also due to the size we think he’ll grow to be. Children should be aged 6yrs and up plus be gentle, loving and caring towards animals.  BANFF has been on medical hold since he came into the rescue due to an issue that he developed and it’s very rarely seen in puppies. It’s not something that was life threatening but it could’ve been if it had been left untreated. We now feel it’s been resolved and this will be discussed in full in the phone interview with his potential adopter. We will also suggest that you discuss it with your own vet before proceeding with the adoption.  BANFF, like all puppies is a cute, playful and fun puppy but he’ll require a lot of time, patience and dedication to training. We need his adopter to commit to signing him up for puppy training/obedience classes so he can be the most well behaved puppy possible. His neuter is included in his adoption fee and his potential adopter must be in agreement to have him neuter performed by the time he’s 9 months of age or 60lbs (whichever comes first.) It will either be at the Rescue’s vet clinic or be at the Barrie SPCA. You do have the option to use your own vet and we’ll reimburse you what we would’ve paid for it at the SPCA. However, his neuter will still have to be performed in the above timeframe for the reimbursement and we’ll need a copy of the procedure invoice and an updated photo of him (preferably in a cone after the surgery.) We use the photo on our fb page along with other animals that were spay/neutered that same week. If BANFF sounds like he’d suit your home and lifestyle then please submit an adoption application to meet him. It should be noted that puppies personalities can change daily/weekly as their little brains develop. We try to keep our puppy postings as up-to-date as possible but due to their development, it’s not always possible to note with 100% accuracy their personality traits. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 17, 2026, 2:03 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.AZTEC was from the Northern community of Grassy Narrows and he came south to find his forever family. He’s received his two vaccines including a rabies shot, a microchip and his vet has deemed him a healthy boy. The size he’ll grow to be is just an educated guess as we have no info on either of his parents. He’s more than likely a mixed breed but what he could be mixed is just a guess based on his looks. He’s a big energetic boy who’s just starting to play with a an assortment of toys and figuring out what fun they are. He’s very good natured and enjoys being around people and he follows his foster around the house.  AZTEC is just starting to get used to his crate as we feel he was never crated before. He is house trained and will let you know when he has to go outside for a bathroom break. He’s just started to go on leash walks and he gets pretty excited when he knows he’s going outside for  one. He does wear a front facing harness as he’s a strong boy and his foster feels that works best for him. He has good manners and will “sit” for  his meals and knows “wait” plus “gentle” for his treats. He hasn’t lived with children so we are saying if there’s any in the home they should be age 10 years plus due to him being a big excitable boy and he could easily knock them down. He does require a fenced-in yard so he can run around and play safely.  AZTEC’s ideal family would be an active one that loves to go on big hikes and walks so he can get the exercise he needs to burn off his puppy energy. He does well in a vehicle so will always be up for a drive, especially if it leads to an adventure for him. He’ll do well in a home with another dog as he’s met several and played really well with them. He’s not met a cat but if there’s one in the home they should be dog savvy and we highly recommend that when they meet he’s kept on a leash for the first few introductions. He would do well as an only pet in the home provided he’s not left alone for long periods of time.  Young dogs are cute, playful and fun but also require a lot of time, patience and dedication to training. We do need his adopter to be in agreement to take him for obedience training to help him to become the best adult boy possible. If AZTEC sounds like he’ll suit your family and lifestyle then please submit an adoption application to meet him. We will also consider foster-to-adopt for him to the right home.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 17, 2026, 2:03 pm

She comes from a community with many stray dogs so she no doubt has many different breeds in her as well. She’s a placid, laid back little fluff ball who loves her humans almost as much as she loves taking naps. Although she’s gentle and quiet on the whole she does have a spicy side to her where she’ll run around doing zoomies and when she crashes though she’ll snuggle in your lap and have a nap. She’s well socialized with people and will excitedly run up to greet them with a wagging tail. She loves her snuggles and will happily curl up in your lap to get lots of them.  ARISAIG is fostered with her brother, Banff and they get up to lots of puppy antics and are very playful together. She’s a happy-go-lucky, playful puppy who’s full of curiosity and loves her squeaky toys and stuffies. With her lovely personality and good nature she’s ready to find her forever home where she can continue to thrive, grow and shower her new family with lots of love and happy tail wags.  ARISAIG is doing very well with her crate training and will sleep in it quietly at night and also take a nap in it during the day. She’s also doing well with housetraining and getting to know that she has to go outside for a bathroom break. She loves going on walks and wears a collar and harness while on a leash. She loves to have a sniff-a-thon on her walks and will check out every rock and heave that she see’s and she’s also learning g “out” when things have to taken out if her mouth. Due to teething, she’s at a chewing stage so she needs lots of chewy toys to satisfy that urge not to chew on anything that she shouldn’t. She really loves to chew on a Nyla bone to keep those little teeth busy too. She’s starting to learn a couple of basic commands already such as “sit” for her meals and take treats “gentle.” ARISAIG would love an active family who loves the outdoors as much as she does, going on hikes, walks and will take her on adventures with them. She travels well in a vehicle and will just rest in her crate and quietly enjoy being driven around. She’s been very friendly with the dogs she’s met so far so should do well with one in her new home with one providing that is, they don’t mind puppy antics. She can be an only dog as long as she’s not left alone for long periods at a time. She has met a cat and was curious about him but he wasn’t a fan of having a new playmate in his home so there was very little interaction between them. Seeing as she’s just a puppy and with a slow, monitored introduction she should do well with a cat in her new home. She requires a fenced-in yard so she can run around and play safely and also to the size she could grown to be, she wouldn’t suit being in an apartment. Children should be aged 6yrs and up plus be gentle, loving and caring towards animals.  ARISAIG, like all puppies is a cute, playful and fun puppy but she’ll require a lot of time, patience and dedication to training.

It will either be at the Rescue’s vet’s office or be at the Barrie SPCA.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.LUMINOX hails from the Northern community of Poplar Hill and came south along with her 4 puppies to find living homes. She was a loving, attentive mum and now she deserves to get that loving family she’s always dreamed of. She’s spayed, vaccinated including rabies, microchipped and been deemed a healthy girl by her vet. We can definitely see the Husky in her but not so much the Lab but she does have the loving, soft nature of one. So basically the breeds are just our assumption and she probably has many more in her too. She’s a bit under weight so could still do with gaining a few pounds which she should now seeing as she’s no longer nursing her puppies. She’s a sweet girl who just wants snuggles, toys and food. She loves her people and will be their shadow and follow them room-to-room because she doesn’t want to lose sight of them. Belly rubs? Did someone say belly rubs? This girl absolutely loves them and when she has her fosters full attention, she’ll then flop onto the floor and roll over so she can get that full-on belly rub.   LUMINOX is crate trained and will sleep well in it at night but not such a fan of it in the daytime so she is kept in a secure room and will settle down f er right away. She does well on her walks but we do not recommend anytime soon that she be off leash until her new owner is well acquainted with her and she’s very trusting of them. She’s housetrained and will let you know when she has to go outside for a bathroom break. She loves her belly rubs and will lean into her foster to let her know she wants them and when she gets their full attention she’ll then flop on the floor for her to give them. She loves to be in the water and she’ll run into it at full tilt and then lay down in it especially after a nice long walk in the woods. She enjoys car rides but sometimes needs bit of a boost to get her in there. She has the funniest quirk of when she’s going somewhere she’ll flop on the ground and go limp. However, she’s fine to be picked up and her smaller size makes it easier to manoeuvre her. She’ll do this sometimes at night when it’s bedtime and time to get her into her crate. She does this as she’d much rather stay with her people and she envisions herself lying on the bed rather than in the crate. She’s well socialized with dogs of all sizes and a lot of different breeds and she also has 2 of them in her foster home. They walk and play well together and love to burn off energy by playing chase in the back yard. She does have a prey drive so we’re saying no cats or critters in her new home. She’s only met children aged 10 plus and did very well with them so we are recommending they should be over the age of 10yrs and be gentle and loving towards animals.  LUMINOX loves to play with toys especially the squeaky ones. She has to be monitored with them though as she’ll chew through them pretty quick to get at that squeaker. So we’re recommending the toughest toys for her like the Kong brand and Nyla bones to chew on. She’s very food motivated so it’s very easy to teach new tricks and commands with treats. She already knows sit, paw, down, come and stay to name a few. Although she already knows these commands we do strongly recommend that her new owner take her to obedience/training school and it’s also a great way for her owner to bond with her. She’s great at sniffing out kibble too and has raided her kibble bin a couple of times so food should be kept well out of her reach. She doesn’t show any signs of  resource guarding with people when it comes to food or toys and they can safely be taken from her. She does require a fenced in yard and one that is secure as she’ll go on a mission to find gaps in it and try to escape. She does have a prey drive so  absolutely no cats or small critters in the home for her. She does chase after bunnies and other critters and one time she did manage to catch a bunny and it unfortunately didn’t survive.  If LUMINOX sounds like she’d fit into your home then please submit an adoption application to meet her.    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 10:07 pm
