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
AGE: 2 Years SEX: Female BREED: Husky Mix ENERGY LEVEL: High DOG FRIENDLY?: Yep! CAT FRIENDLY?: Yep! KID FRIENDLY?: Yep! Meet Autumn! Autumn is a playful, fun-loving girl who enjoys long walks and is always eager for new adventures. She loves making new dog friends, soaking up belly rubs, and is a huge fan of her toys - she’ll happily grab the nearest one to chew on and would be delighted if you tossed it for her to chase! Autumn is a happy, social pup who enjoys meeting both people and other dogs. She has welcomed guests into the home with ease, giving them space and respect, yet always excited to greet them warmly. While she enjoys canine companionship and currently lives with another dog, Autumn does best with slow, calm introductions when meeting new dogs, allowing her to settle in and build positive connections at her own pace. Once comfortable, she’s playful, friendly, and loves spending her days playing and hanging out, though she is just as content to settle down afterward. She’s very food motivated, which makes training a breeze! Puzzle toys are a big hit with her and are a great way to channel her energy and keep her mind busy. While she can be a bit strong on the leash, she and her fosters recently worked with a trainer, and she’s making excellent progress. She’s also kid and cat friendly, and would be thrilled to share her home with dogs, cats, and children. Autumn currently lives downtown and does well in that environment, but she would be just as happy living outside the hustle and bustle with some extra room to run! She is both crate and house trained and settles within minutes when left alone. She loves being near her people and, although not overly snuggly, she enjoys affection on her own terms. If you’re looking for a sweet, energetic companion to join you on your daily adventures, Autumn might be the perfect match! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Autumn?

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 big heart and the calmest, sweetest vibes. She loves to play and learns quickly, especially when fun and food 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 streak that includes jumping for treats, all while being full of love for 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 working on her heel. She does well 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 do well in a busier area with some patience as she adjusts. In new situations, Justine can be timid at first and may be nervous around loud sounds, though she settles with reassurance. She can also be unsure when meeting other dogs and may show some reactivity, typically whining or tensing up. Because she can be selective with canine companions and tends to do better with male dogs, she would likely thrive as the only dog in the home. On walks, she does have a prey drive toward small animals, and she would do best in a cat-free home, as she tends to fixate and want to chase. With a patient, loving family who can continue to support her confidence, Justine will shine. If you’re looking for a devoted, affectionate companion with a gentle soul, Justine may be the perfect match for your home! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Justine?

Story
AGE: 2 Years SEX: Female BREED: Husky Mix ENERGY LEVEL: Medium DOG FRIENDLY?: Yep! CAT FRIENDLY?: Yep! KID FRIENDLY?: Yep! Meet Misty! This loving, affectionate girl is a true people-lover who wins hearts everywhere she goes. She adores snuggling, gives plenty of kisses, and will gently paw your arm when she’s asking for more pets. Misty enjoys being outside exploring and taking in her surroundings, and she isn’t bothered by traffic or loud sounds. She has a playful side too; she likes to play wrestle and has a mischievous streak that sometimes includes stealing socks or slippers. Misty gets along well with both cats and dogs and has met children of various ages, doing beautifully with them thanks to her gentle nature. She’s house trained, has mastered sit, and is doing great with her crate training - sleeping soundly through the night and settling after a brief whine when left alone. She loves everyone she meets and does well with visitors, happily soaking up attention. While she can sometimes get a little excited and jump up, she would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy kids. On walks, Misty does have a prey drive toward small animals and can be reactive toward other dogs on leash, so continued training and support will help her build calm, confident skills. She can also be a bit vocal at times. In multi-dog homes, it’s important that she has her own food, toys, and bed, as she can be possessive of her belongings. With structure, guidance, and plenty of affection, Misty will thrive. If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who loves deeply and bonds closely with her people, Misty may be the perfect match! Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Misty?

Story
AGE: 4 Months SEX: Female BREED: Shepherd Mix ENERGY LEVEL: High DOG FRIENDLY?: Yep! CAT FRIENDLY?: Yep! KID FRIENDLY?: Yep! Meet Tinkerbell! This curious, energetic little pup loves nothing more than exploring the world around her. She’s a big fan of the outdoors - running, playing, and investigating every new scent she comes across. On walks, she enjoys sitting and watching small animals, taking it all in with bright-eyed fascination. Tinkerbell is very food-motivated (especially if bacon-flavoured treats are involved!) and loves learning new things. She already knows sit and lie down and is working on improving her recall. She also loves chewing, playing ball, and generally turning every outing into an adventure. Tinkerbell is an active girl who thrives with plenty of exercise and outdoor time. She gets excited when meeting new people and is improving on her leash skills, she tends to pull because she’s eager to run, but with continued practice she’ll keep getting better. She has shown some reactivity toward dogs on walks, so extra support and training will help her build confidence. Given her young age, she should adapt well to a home with dogs, cats, and kids. Her curiosity shines everywhere she goes, and her playful, exploratory nature makes her a fun and engaging companion for anyone who loves being outside. At home, Tinkerbell’s sweet side comes out. She’s doing great with her crate training and is fully house trained. She can be vocal when she wants something, but with consistency and guidance she’s learning to communicate in calmer ways. After a full day of activity, she’s more than happy to curl up with a cozy blanket and settle in for snuggly downtime when she’s gotten her energy out. If you’re looking for an active, enthusiastic puppy who’s ready to join you on all your adventures, Tinkerbell may be the perfect addition to your family!
