Story
AGE: 1 Year SEX: Female BREED: Husky Mix ENERGY LEVEL: Medium DOG FRIENDLY?: Yep! CAT FRIENDLY?: Yep! KID FRIENDLY?: Likely! FOSTER IG: @meet_thefosters Meet Millie! This sweet, playful girl has a gentle, lovable personality that instantly wins people over. She enjoys cuddling just as much as she loves to play and brings a soft, joyful energy to everything she does. Millie is generally quiet and easygoing, and while she can be a little shy, she truly blossoms with reassurance and kind guidance from her people. Millie absolutely adores other dogs and lights up around her canine friends. She loves playing with them and greets dogs nicely and happily on walks, clearly enjoying their company. She has also done well meeting a cat indoors and has shown she can be cat friendly. Given her gentle nature, Millie would likely do very well in a home with kids. She lives in a busy area and handles it well, taking everyday sights and sounds in stride. While sudden noises may occasionally surprise her, she adjusts quickly and carries on with her tail wagging. When meeting new people, Millie may start off shy, but with a little encouragement she becomes very friendly and eager to soak up attention and affection. At home, Millie is house trained and knows several cues, including sit, come, and wait. She is also crate trained and sleeps soundly through the night, though she may politely remind you if you sleep in a bit too long! She benefits from positive reinforcement and gentle encouragement with things like getting into the car or taking a bath, and she responds beautifully to supportive guidance. With her sweet nature, playful spirit, and love of both dogs and cuddles, Millie would thrive in a home ready to offer reassurance, consistency, and plenty of love. If you’re looking for a happy, dog-friendly companion with a heart of gold, Millie may be the perfect match! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Millie?

AGE: 7 months SEX: Female BREED: Husky Mix ENERGY LEVEL: Medium DOG FRIENDLY?: Yep! CAT FRIENDLY?: Untested KID FRIENDLY?: Likely! FOSTER IG: @lolathenorthernmix Meet Lola! This playful, energetic girl is full of joy and absolutely loves to move. Zoomies are one of her specialties, and she’s happiest when she can run around, explore her surroundings, and investigate everything the world has to offer. Lola enjoys enrichment activities and chewing on her toys, which keep her busy and satisfied. At the end of the day, she transforms into a total love bug - she adores being snuggled, follows her people from room to room, and will gently nudge you with her nose to ask for pets and affection. Lola is confident and social, greeting new people with ease and enthusiasm. She’s not shy at all and becomes comfortable immediately, happily engaging with visitors - she recently had a guest over and loved every minute of playing with her. Lola does well in a busy, downtown environment and takes the hustle and bustle in stride. She’s smart and eager to learn, already knowing sit and stay, sitting patiently while waiting for her meal to be placed down, and currently learning paw. She’s also house trained, understands the word “crate,” and will go in when asked. At night, she sleeps soundly in her crate. On walks, Lola can get very excited when she sees other dogs, which can lead to pulling and some reactive behaviours, so dedicated training and support will help her build calmer leash skills. Indoors, she can be vocal at times, usually when she’s seeking attention or can’t see her people. While she does great sleeping in her crate overnight, she’s still working on daytime crating and being home alone and will benefit from continued support as she builds confidence here. With her affectionate nature, playful spirit, and love for people, Lola will thrive in a home ready to guide her energy and continue her training. If you’re looking for a fun, cuddly companion who brings both excitement and endless love, Lola might just be your perfect match! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Lola?

Story
FELICE - Lab-Mix / 10 years / 20kg / F-Spayed Beautiful Felice turns 10 in January and we hope to start her year off on the right foot! After being with the same family for the past 6 years, she finds herself ready for a new beginning! She has gone to bootcamp, and girl has been rocking it since day 1! She knows a lot of "rules" already and benefits from consistency. If you say place, she may give you a look that says "do you mean it" and if you simply give her a "yup" she will trot off to settle. She has been a bit confused by her role of "dog", but is catching on quickly to understand her place in the family. Her play style with other dogs is a smidge wonky, as if she hasn't learned to play. Her new canine buddy Michael is working with her on chase, sharing and having fun together. (She loves it!) She is great with dogs, but has the confidence to be a solo dog in the home. She is good with kids too and had some wee humans in her past home. If you think you could be Felice’s forever, check out the adoption process and application at www.dibsrescue.com. Her adoption fee is $500. If you are a family with kids, please check out our resources on kids and dogs before you apply (https://dibsrescue.com/kids-dogs/).

Story
I rescued Luffy from a vet clinic in Toronto, Ontario. I have raised him since he was a puppy and he has been with me for over 9 years. He overcame a leg injury inflicted upon him by his previous owner, and was subsequently abandoned. Despite that, he is incredibly friendly with people (including kids). He is very healthy and active for his age. In cool weather, he can go on 8 km walks with no issues.

Story
AGE: 3.5 Years SEX: Female BREED: Potcake ENERGY LEVEL: Medium DOG FRIENDLY: Maybe CAT FRIENDLY?: No KID FRIENDLY?: Yes FOSTER IG: @foster_by_the_shore Meet Justine! This gentle, well-mannered girl has a heart of gold and the sweetest, calmest energy. Everyone who meets her falls in love with her affectionate, easygoing nature. She loves to play and learns quickly - especially when treats or fun games are involved. Once she’s comfortable, Justine is incredibly cuddly and takes her couch naps very seriously. She enjoys enrichment activities like snuffle mats and puzzles and has a playful side that includes jumping for treats, all while being deeply devoted to her people. Justine is house trained and perfectly crate trained - she sleeps soundly in her crate at night, happily goes in to nap during the day, and can be left home alone without issue. She walks well on leash and is currently polishing her heel. She does wonderfully meeting new people and with guests in the home, often starting off a little shy but quickly warming up and offering kisses once she feels safe. She currently lives in a quieter neighbourhood but could also do well in a busier area with some patience and support as she adjusts. In new situations, Justine can be a bit sensitive at first, especially around loud sounds, but she settles beautifully with reassurance. She can be selective with other dogs and may show some reactivity, usually expressing herself by whining or tensing up, so slow introductions are important. She tends to do best with male dogs and would likely thrive as the only dog in the home. On walks, she does have a prey drive toward small animals and would do best in a cat-free home. With her sweet temperament, calm presence, and loving heart, Justine will truly shine with a patient, caring family. If you’re looking for a chill, affectionate companion who bonds deeply and brings warmth to your home, Justine may be the perfect match!
