German Shepherd Dog puppies and dogs in Lachute, Quebec

*Meet Molly* Molly is a beautiful 6-year-old German Shepherd–St. Bernard mix with a big heart and a loyal spirit. Calm and gentle at home, she loves spending her days relaxing nearby or quietly following you from room to room. But once she’s outside, her playful and adventurous side shines through — she loves to run, explore, and take in all the sights and smells around her. Molly is deeply devoted and protective of her people — the kind of companion who will always have your back. She would thrive as the only pet in the home, as she doesn’t get along with other dogs and can be wary of strangers. Molly had a tough start to life. She was sold far too early, at only four weeks old, and likely came from a stressful environment. Because she didn’t have the proper time with her mother, she missed out on learning some early dog-to-dog social cues. Despite that, she’s incredibly intelligent and full of love — she just needs patience, understanding, and a calm, stable environment. Loud noises and too much excitement can make Molly anxious, so a peaceful home without children or other pets is best. She can be a little uncertain at first and may seem ready for pets before changing her mind — a bit like a cat! With time and trust, though, she forms deep bonds with her people and shows her true, affectionate self. She can snap when she feels afraid or threatened so a calm and understanding family is a must. Molly is also leash-reactive, so a fully fenced yard would be ideal to give her space to run and burn off energy safely. She absolutely loves adventures up north, exploring the woods, and breathing in the fresh air. She’s been loved and well cared for her whole life, but she’s ready for a new chapter — one with an experienced adopter who understands sensitive, loyal dogs like her. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will love you unconditionally and appreciate the calm moments by your side, Molly might just be the perfect match. Molly is vaccinated, microchipped, has his flea, tick & heartworm prevention, is sterilized and will come with her medical booklet. Sometimes a dog takes a little more time to open up, you may see them showing more and more of their personality over the course of the first few days, weeks or even months! We don’t know all that they’ve been through before they were rescued, but they are so forgiving and full of love and it’s worth every tough moment in the end. Developing a trusting relationship with your rescue dog is the most important thing. Stability, patience, positive reinforcement and love are the most important things! Voici Molly Molly est une magnifique chienne de 6 ans, un mélange de Berger Allemand et de Saint-Bernard, avec un grand cœur et un esprit loyal. Calme et douce à la maison, elle adore passer ses journées à relaxer tout près de vous ou à vous suivre tranquillement d’une pièce à l’autre. Mais une fois dehors, son côté joueur et aventurier ressort — elle aime courir, explorer et profiter de toutes les odeurs et découvertes autour d’elle. Molly est très attachée et protectrice envers ses humains — le genre de compagne qui aura toujours votre dos. Elle serait plus heureuse comme seule animal dans la maison, car elle ne s’entend pas bien avec les autres chiens et peut se méfier des étrangers. Elle peut réagir brusquement et snapper quand elle se sent apeurée ou menacée, donc une famille calme et compréhensive est essentielle. Molly n’a pas eu un début de vie facile. Elle a été vendue beaucoup trop jeune, à seulement quatre semaines, et vient probablement d’un environnement stressant. Comme elle n’a pas eu assez de temps avec sa mère, elle n’a pas pu apprendre certaines bases de communication entre chiens. Malgré tout, elle est extrêmement intelligente et remplie d’amour — elle a simplement besoin de patience, de compréhension et d’un environnement calme et stable. Les bruits forts et trop d’agitation peuvent la rendre anxieuse, donc un foyer paisible, sans enfants ni autres animaux, serait idéal pour elle. Elle peut être un peu incertaine au début et sembler vouloir des câlins avant de changer d’idée — un peu comme un chat! Mais avec du temps et de la confiance, elle crée des liens profonds et montre toute sa vraie personnalité affectueuse. Molly réagit aussi à la laisse, donc une cour entièrement clôturée serait parfaite pour lui permettre de courir et se dépenser en toute sécurité. Elle adore les aventures au nord, explorer la forêt et respirer l’air frais. Elle a toujours été aimée et bien soignée, mais elle est maintenant prête pour un nouveau chapitre — avec un adoptant expérimenté qui comprend les chiens sensibles et loyaux comme elle. Si vous cherchez une compagne dévouée, qui vous aimera sans condition et appréciera les moments calmes à vos côtés, Molly pourrait bien être le match parfait. Molly est vacciné, identifié par puce électronique, protégé contre les puces, les tiques et la tics, stérilisé et accompagné de son carnet médical. Il arrive qu'un chien mette un peu plus de temps à s'ouvrir ; vous le verrez peut-être exprimer de plus en plus sa personnalité au cours des premiers jours, semaines, voire mois ! Nous ignorons tout ce qu'ils ont traversé avant d'être secourus, mais ils sont si indulgents et pleins d'amour que chaque moment difficile en vaut la peine. Développer une relation de confiance avec votre chien adopté est primordial. La stabilité, la patience, le renforcement positif et l'amour sont les valeurs les plus importantes !

Meet Mila! Mila is a gorgeous 7-month-old German Shepherd/Husky mix with a heart full of love and a playful spirit. She is looking for a family that is ready to embrace all the fun (and adventure!) that comes with raising a smart, energetic puppy. Mila is sterilized, up to date on all of her vaccinations, and microchipped. This sweet girl is fully potty trained, sleeps quietly in her crate overnight, and already knows several commands including **sit, down, touch, give paw**, and she's currently learning **stay**. She absolutely loves being with her people and is happiest when she's included in daily life. Like many working breeds, Mila is incredibly intelligent and active. She will need a family that has the time and commitment to continue her training while keeping her both physically exercised and mentally stimulated. Puzzle toys, training sessions, adventures, and enrichment activities will help her become the very best version of herself. Mila is wonderful with other dogs and loves having canine friends to play with, although her enthusiasm and puppy energy can sometimes be a bit much for more laid-back dogs. She would do best with a confident, patient dog that enjoys having an energetic playmate. She would also make a fantastic addition to a home with older children who understand how to interact respectfully with an active puppy. Mila is an incredibly affectionate dog who forms strong bonds with her humans. Because of this, she does experience some separation anxiety and is happiest in a home where someone is around most of the day or where her alone time can be increased gradually through positive training. She is also a very mouthy puppy, which is completely manageable with consistent redirection and continued training. She isn't aggressive—she simply expresses her excitement the way many shepherd and husky puppies do. With patience and consistency, she's already making great progress. Mila can be protective of her food, which is understandable given her past. She was previously adopted through another rescue where multiple dogs were fed together in a confined space and expected to "work it out" during mealtimes. Since coming into our care, we've learned that she simply needs structured feeding routines and positive reinforcement to continue building confidence around food. Mila is an incredibly loving, loyal, goofy girl with endless potential. She is searching for a family who understands that puppies require time, guidance, and patience—but the reward is a devoted companion for years to come. If you're looking for an active best friend who will love you with her whole heart and grow alongside your family, Mila may be the perfect match. Could you be the forever family Mila has been waiting for? Voici Mila! Mila est une magnifique femelle croisée Berger allemand/Husky de 7 mois qui déborde d'amour et d'énergie! Elle est à la recherche d'une famille prête à vivre la belle aventure d'élever une jeune chienne intelligente, affectueuse et pleine de vie. Mila est stérilisée, vaccinée à jour et micropucée. Cette douce cocotte est propre dans la maison, dort paisiblement dans sa cage toute la nuit et connaît déjà plusieurs commandes de base, dont **assis, couché, touche, donne la patte**, et elle apprend présentement le **reste**. Elle adore être avec ses humains et est la plus heureuse lorsqu'elle peut faire partie de toutes les activités de la famille. Comme plusieurs chiens de travail, Mila est extrêmement intelligente et énergique. Elle aura besoin d'une famille qui aura le temps et l'énergie de poursuivre son éducation tout en lui offrant beaucoup de stimulation physique et mentale. Les promenades, les jeux interactifs, les casse-têtes pour chiens et les séances d'entraînement l'aideront à s'épanouir. Mila s'entend très bien avec les autres chiens et adore jouer avec eux. Par contre, son énergie de chiot peut parfois être un peu intense pour certains compagnons plus tranquilles. Elle serait idéale dans une famille ayant un chien patient et joueur qui aimerait avoir une partenaire de jeux. Elle ferait également un excellent ajout à une famille avec des enfants plus âgés qui comprennent comment interagir avec un jeune chien énergique. Mila est une chienne extrêmement affectueuse qui crée des liens très forts avec ses humains. Elle vit toutefois un peu d'anxiété de séparation et sera plus heureuse dans une famille où quelqu'un est présent la majorité du temps ou qui est prêt à travailler graduellement son autonomie avec des méthodes positives. Comme plusieurs chiots de son âge, Mila utilise beaucoup sa bouche lorsqu'elle joue ou est excitée. Elle aura besoin qu'on la redirige de façon constante, mais c'est une chienne exceptionnellement douce qui apprend rapidement. Avec de la patience, de la constance et un bon encadrement, elle continue de faire de très beaux progrès. Mila peut également démontrer une certaine protection de sa nourriture. Cela est probablement lié à son passé, puisqu'elle provenait d'un refuge où plusieurs chiens étaient gardés ensemble dans un petit espace et où ils devaient essentiellement « se débrouiller entre eux » à l'heure des repas. Depuis qu'elle est avec nous, elle progresse très bien et bénéficiera simplement d'une routine calme et d'un entraînement positif pour continuer à développer sa confiance. Mila est une chienne incroyablement intelligente, affectueuse, drôle et remplie de potentiel. Elle recherche une famille qui comprend que les chiots demandent du temps, de la patience et de l'investissement, mais qu'en retour, ils offrent un amour et une fidélité incomparables. Si vous cherchez une compagne active qui deviendra votre meilleure amie pour la vie, Mila est peut-être celle que vous attendiez!

She does walk on the leash and rides good in the car. I cannot say she is house-trained as she has access to outside pretty much all day and does go outside, but she won't know to let you know she needs to go out - so you must be prepared to help her learn. We are looking for an active family who understands the need of mental stimulation as well as the physical exercise for this intelligent active girl Our adoption fee's are $550 per dog/pup or $1,000 for two.

BEAU and his 5 siblings were born after their mum, was saved from a large hoarding case in Northern Texas (April 2026) where the American Humane were involved due to the scale of abuse and neglect. "Sweetie" their mum was heavily pregnant and had a rotted, infected foot/leg that caused her leg to need amputation. Luckily she was saved and was able to give birth to 6 healthy pups in the safety of the local animal control department and their foster team.  After getting vetted and old enough to travel (8 wks) they arrived safely at Give a Dog a Home Rescue in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine on 28 May 2026. We had planned to take their mum, Sweetie along with the pups, but we are happy to share that she was a Foster-Fail down in Texas. We welcome adopters from across the East Coast and Canada — many of our families travel to meet and take home their new best friend! Health & Background I was informed by the ladies on transport that they were told that BEAU was deaf. This does appear to be the case and so we are looking for experienced families with another dog to be his hearing companion. Estimated date of birth: 31 March 2026 ✅ Neutered ✅ Core vaccines up to date - too young for Rabies ✅ Monthly preventatives ✅ Microchipped with 24PetWatch - registered with Free Pet Chip Registry. ⚖️ Weight approx. 10 pounds at end of May There is no doubt that BEAU is the cutest, most adorable pup ever. He is fun, goofy, loving, affectionate, smart and very stubborn lol. Of course the fact he is deaf makes him all the more cuter but this does mean he needs a family that has what he needs and the understanding of his needs. Although animals thrive with disabilities and Beau is doing fantastic here with the other pups and the senior dogs, he does miss out on very important cues from the other dogs - that being verbal communication - those low growls from the bigger dogs telling him to back off, other communications he misses, he has to be watching the dogs body language for his communication with them and well lets face it he is a puppy and is interested in everything and anything everywhere. We feel it is important that Beau be adopted with another puppy or to a family that has a dog of up to 1-2 years old at the most. The reason for this is so that they can form a bond, and Beau will follow the cues from the other dog, if Beau is not watching you he will almost definitely follow the other dog if you call them inside from playing in the yard - this is important for safety issues too. Sign language is of course a tool to train him, but sign language is only good when he is looking at you. BEAU needs a family that is active and understands his intelligence and be sure he gets his physical and mental needs met along with that ever so important socialization and exposure to different environments. Our adoption fee's are $550 per dog/pup or $1,000 for two. Adoption Details Location: Dover-Foxcroft, Maine Families must complete and submit an adoption questionnaire.
