Chocolate once had a home but we cannot say it was a loving one. Chocolate was dumped by her owner because they allowed a massive mass the size of a baseball to get bigger on her stomach and did not want to treat her so they abandoned her as if she was rubbish. It is also believed that they had kept her caged for a very long period of time. Working with one of our truly devoted, dedicated and absolutely outstanding Chinese rescuers she rescued Chocolate and gave her the chance to have a wonderful life. The mass was removed along with the full chain & the mass was tested & it was benign. We believe every sweet soul such as Chocolate and her friends deserves to be loved and cherished and given the chance to have a wonderful life. Now Chocolate is looking for a special family to cherish her and be patient with her and remember what this beautiful soul has been through and a family that meets all her needs. Chocolate was rescued by our truly amazing Chinese rescue friends and just as always we are beyond grateful to the Chinese rescue who we are so extremely thankful for what they do day in and day out for these babies, we cannot thank them enough. Chocolate was bought back to the USA where she is now a US citizen and is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find her new loving devoted forever home. Chocolate deserves nothing but the best. She is so unique in the fact she will go do her own thing but then loves dogs at the same time and it’s just whatever she wants to do. She is the most beautiful soul and loves hard when people love her. She now sits there and stares at her foster mum with so much love. She knows her world is so very different. Her foster mum said she is such a good girl and up for anything and comes when she calls her and gets so excited at times, ie when it’s time to get up, dinner time, going for adventures. Sometimes she can be the fun police her foster mum said if a dog is doing something they shouldn’t be and she will let them know. Originally with her original rescuers they let us know she would only eat meat and nothing else. Since day one with us, she had devoured her homemade food and is absolutely obsessed with it. She radiates gratitude. She just wants you to love her and she will love you back. She adores being hugged and held because the reality is we are the first real people in her life to show her such true love and affection. She is a really smart girl too because on the day of arrival in her foster home she taught herself to run up hardwood stairs and follow her foster mum. She will also let you know when she wants something. When she finds people who love her they become her world. She is a loving girl who gets so excited every time she sees her foster mum along with her foster dad. She loves to run and play with her foster siblings and must go to a home with another dog who will be company for her. She loves a good outfit and will get ready for you to put one on her. Chocolate eats a clean diet, meaning raw fruits, raw vegetables, 70 % raw proteins, grains, fats and supplements. She also enjoys collagen sticks and bully sticks. All of her treats are homemade and Chocolate has put on weight since being in her loving foster home and eating this way. Chocolate has been taught to walk on harness & leash & has been doing wonderful. She would need continued work walking on her harness & leash. Chocolate is a rescue & will need patience, time & understanding. Chocolate adores being pampered & doesn’t want you to stop when brushing him, cleaning his eyes, grooming her, baths, the hairdryer she loves it all. She also does extremely well being touched in general & adores receiving love. Having toys & a warm bed is all new to Chocolate & we have been excited to change her world with the introduction of toys & lots of love & affection & a loving environment. So far she has not started showing interest in toys in her foster home. Chocolate has learnt to ride in the car and does well in the car and enjoys a good car ride. She is such an amazing, loving little lady. With Chocolate we are only looking for a crate free home for this lovely little lad only. Please do not apply with the intent to crate this girl. We are also looking for a forever home for Chocolate where someone is home during the day or Chocolate can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them. Chocolate is looking for a forever home who will cherish her and love her as she should be loved and be very patient with her and understanding. Chocolate has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes and sizes and she is currently with other dogs and enjoys their company in her loving foster home. She can be found at times snuggled up to her foster siblings and will want to sleep in bed with you and she does in her current loving foster home. A fully fenced backyard is mandatory for Chocolate’s new forever home if it’s a free standing home. Chocolate is now roughly 14 lbs & 5 years old. She is spayed and perhaps a havapoo and what she is mixed with we are not sure? She is microchipped, up to date on her shots including DHLPP, rabies & dewormed. She has a grade 4/6 heart murmur but just had a full dental with no problems. We believe her original owner kept her in cage as she has been building a lot more muscle since being in the rescue. She had the mass removed along with the full chain and the mass was tested and it was benign. Once these shots expire we will not redo them except rabies as we will not over vaccinate our beloved dogs. We have spent over $2000 on Chocolate with bringing her to the US with her travel airfare paying for her medical care, including, shots, spay microchip etc, than her adoption fee comes close to covering. Chocolate has not been around cats since being in the rescue but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals. We have not had Chocolate with small children so we do not recommend children, but it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & animals. We were not there when Chocolate was conceived so we do not know who her parents were and it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures and decide what they think her breed is. As with all of our rescues and Chocolate’s friends she will need work on potty training and training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life and that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Chocolate potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through and what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them and if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training and not just say they will when applying. Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Chocolate and going through our process and have read her listing fully to the end and are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on and remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview and a virtual home visit using Zoom followed by a meet and greet and if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Chocolate who understands her needs and that meet all the requirements for this lovely sweet lady. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives and please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. Chocolate has an adoption fee of $885 & is ready for her truly loving forever home and compassion and understanding of what she has been through.

Bella is a true survivor in sense and has seen and witnessed so much evil in her life. She was pulled out of a slaughterhouse and it’s soul destroying to think of what she has been through and yet she still loves human beings even after everything she has seen and heard in her previous life. We cannot even begin to imagine what Bella witnessed and heard when she was at the slaughterhouse. How Bella ended up in a slaughterhouse for human consumption and yes you did read that correctly, we will never know? What we do know is, she was pulled out of there by our outstanding Chinese rescuer just in time. Working with one of our truly devoted, dedicated and absolutely outstanding Chinese rescuers she rescued Bella and many others for us. Without this beloved rescuer going in and getting Bella out, her fate was a torturous death. We believe every sweet soul such as Bella and her friends deserves to be loved and cherished and given the chance to have a wonderful life.

Meet Haneul   1 year old | Spayed Female | Bichon Frise | 3.9 kg   Sometimes all a dog needs is one person who won’t give up.   Haneul was purchased from a pet shop as a two-month-old puppy by an elderly owner in his 70s. As she grew into an energetic puppy, caring for her became too difficult. She was then passed from one acquaintance to another, changing homes about four times before finally being surrendered to a private shelter. The shelter later reached out to us for help finding her forever home.   Despite all the instability in her young life, Haneul has remained a sweet, affectionate little girl who is still searching for the family she can truly call her own.   Personality with People   Haneul is an affectionate cuddle bug who loves being close to her people. At home, she’ll happily ask to be picked up and can spend hours curled up comfortably on your lap.   Outdoors, however, she can be a little more reserved. In unfamiliar environments, she may hesitate around strangers at first, but once she feels comfortable, her affectionate personality quickly shines through.   She is friendly with men. She has done well meeting children. She enjoys belly rubs from people she trusts. She can be comfortably picked up and loves being held.   With Other Dogs   Haneul is a typical young Bichon with a playful spirit.   She tends to avoid dogs that are much larger than she is, but happily plays with dogs of similar size, smaller dogs, and even large puppies.   Once she gets excited, it’s zoomie time! She becomes so focused on having fun that she barely notices what’s happening around her—even if other dogs are barking. At just one year old, she’s still delightfully carefree and hasn’t quite learned all the social rules yet, which only adds to her charm.   With Cats   Haneul has not been tested with cats, but a cat assessment can be arranged upon request.   Energy Level   Like many young Bichons, Haneul enjoys several energetic zoomie sessions throughout the day.   Once she’s burned off her energy, she’s happy to play with toys, spend time with other dogs, or simply cuddle with her people. Overall, she has a moderate energy level with playful bursts of puppy excitement.   Walking   Haneul loves exploring the world through her nose and enjoys taking time to sniff during walks.   She walks nicely on leash without pulling and naturally stays close to her handler.   Additional Information   She does not guard food from people or other dogs.   While no separation anxiety has been observed, Haneul does not enjoy being alone and would do best with a family where someone is home most of the day or where she has regular companionship.   She may bark when first settling into a crate, but usually relaxes once she feels secure. She may also bark to let you know she wants something.   She is potty trained to use both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty, although she clearly prefers going outside.     Toronto Applicants Only   Haneul is expected to arrive in Toronto in mid-August with a flight volunteer.   At this time, we are only accepting applications from adopters who are able to pick her up at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).   If you’re looking for a cheerful little companion who loves to cuddle just as much as she loves to zoom around and play, Haneul may be the perfect addition to your family.

Meet Barfi, a sweet, playful pup who's always ready for her next adventure—but she's just as happy entertaining herself with a toy or curling up for a cozy nap. She's the kind of dog who will happily join in on the fun and then settle down for some quality cuddle time afterward. Barfi has been friendly with the strangers she's met in her foster home, has done great with the smaller dogs she's been introduced to, and has lived peacefully with one cat (whom she’s desperately trying to befriend). She hasn't met any big dogs yet, but she's approached every new experience so far with curiosity and enthusiasm. She's a voracious eater, an enthusiastic playmate, and an expert cuddler all rolled into one. She's also a quick learner who’s already picked up leash walking with impressive speed. Food motivated and eager to please, she's excited to keep learning. Barfi is doing great co-sleeping overnight with her foster brothers. She's become comfortable with brushing and handling, and she loves being outside in any weather—even the rain! Whether your home is bustling with activity or a little more laid-back, Barfi is an adaptable little pup with a happy personality and so much love to give. If you're looking for a fun, affectionate companion who's equal parts playful and snuggly, Barfi might just be your perfect match. -----

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
