Story
Mila is a 2 year old terrier/hound mix (likely JRT & Beagle) weighing approx 27 lbs. She loves her humans very much and is very playful and affectionate with them. Mila did not start her life off in a bad way but she did miss out on training, boundaries and socialization. For this reason, Mila has spent time with a professional trainer who has fallen in love with her. Unfortunately, there are limits to the number of dogs a person can have! She loves the outdoors and play time! She’s a very active girl and would do great with a dominant larger dog, she can be too rambunctious for a small dog. Mila is an excellent girl at home when you have to go out, just make sure you have the perfect window for her to neighborhood watch from! She is obviously a high energy girl but likes nothing more than to be tucked in beside her person on the couch!! She gives great hugs and kisses!! Mila will require an experienced owner and home without children under the age of 7. She loves kids but is still learning boundaries. Her adopter will be able to take advantage of some professional advise from her trainer in order to keep Mila improving. Training consistency will be key to keeping Mila on track with her progression. Mila is currently being fostered in Newmarket, ON. If you are interested in adopting Mila, please complete an application on our website: https://www.jrnc.org/adoption-application

Story
Quick Facts Name: Black Sesame  Age: 1.5 years old (born October 2023)   Gender: Female  Neutered/Spayed: Scheduled for April 2025 Breed: Terrier Mix Color: White & Black Weight: 10kg    My PersonalityHi there! I’m Black Sesame, a lively and playful little pup with a big heart. I’m full of energy, always bouncing around with excitement, and ready to turn any moment into an adventure. Some might say I’m a bit of a free spirit—I love to explore, play, and zoom around, but I also have a soft and affectionate side, especially when I’m with my favorite people.I may come off as confident, but deep down, I still look to others for reassurance. My sister, Black rice, is my best friend, and I like having a buddy around. We may playfully bicker like all siblings do, but at the end of the day, we’re inseparable.With people, I’m incredibly sweet and loving. I might take a moment to warm up to new faces, but once I do, I’ll happily snuggle up and enjoy all the love and attention you have to give. If you pick me up, I’ll settle right into your arms. I also have a cute habit of making little whiny noises when I want attention—it's just my way of letting you know I love being close to you!   Social Skills With People: I love people! I can be a little shy with strangers at first, but give me a few treats and a little time, and I’ll be your best friend. I’ve never met young children before, but I’m gentle and affectionate, so with the right introduction, I think I’d love them too! With Other Dogs: I’m a social pup who enjoys the company of other dogs. I get along great with friendly pups and love to play, but I also like having a familiar doggy friend around for comfort. Having another dog in the home would make me feel extra secure and happy! With Cats: I haven’t met any cats yet, so I’m not sure how I’d feel about them!   Energy and ActivitiesI have lots of energy and love to run, play, and explore! Outdoor adventures are my favorite, and I need plenty of activity to help me settle down at home. Since I’m still young, I’m learning how to walk on a leash—sometimes, new things can feel a little overwhelming, and I might stop or lay down when something surprises me. But with patience and encouragement, I know I’ll gain confidence in no time!   Life at Home Settling In: I adjust well to new environments but feel more secure when I have company. Since I’m still a puppy, I may need some guidance to help me feel comfortable when left alone. Mealtime: I love food! I don’t mind sharing with people, but I prefer to have my own space when eating around other dogs. Kennel Training: I’m getting used to my kennel, but sometimes I whimper a little when I first go in—just to let you know I’d rather be by your side! House Training: I know how to use indoor pee pads but also do well with outdoor potty training. Communication: I’m a little talkative! I might let out a bark when I see a stranger or whine when I want attention, but I’m also very responsive to gentle guidance. A simple “no” is usually enough for me to understand what’s expected.   My Ideal HomeI’m looking for a forever home that will:Love and cherish me—I bond deeply with my people and thrive with affection.Be patient and understanding—Since I’m still young, I’m learning new things every day!Give me space to play and explore—I have lots of energy and would love an active family.Have another friendly dog (optional, but I’d love a buddy!)—I feel more confident when I have a furry friend around.   Special NotesIf you’re looking for a playful, loving, and lively companion to share your adventures with, I might be the perfect match for you! I can’t wait to meet my forever family and start our journey together.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Black Sesame's YouTube Playlist ##2354547##

Story
Quick Facts Name: Suil  Age: 5 years old approximate  Gender: Male Neutered/Sprayed: Yes Breed: Terrier Mix  Color: Brown & White & Black  Weight: 8.9kg    My Health‍ Hi, I’m Suil! I may have had a tough start, but I’m healthy and ready to find my forever home. I’ve been fully vaccinated, neutered, and have completed my treatment for heartworm. I also had surgery on my right leg, and while I only have three legs now, that doesn’t slow me down! I enjoy my walks and playtime just like any other pup. My soft coat and bright eyes are just a small part of what makes me special.   My Personality I’m a lively and playful boy with a heart full of love. When I feel comfortable, I love to play with my favorite people—sometimes even with a little paw-tag game! My friends say I’m charming and full of personality, and once I trust you, I’ll be your most loyal companion. I can be a little reserved when I first meet new people, but if you offer me a tasty treat, I’ll warm up in no time! Once we become friends, I’ll greet you with a wagging tail and a happy heart every time I see you. I also have a soft spot for squeaky toys—so much that I might even choose one over a treat!   My Social Life     •  With People: I love spending time with my trusted humans and enjoy playing together. At first, I might take a moment to observe, but once I know you're a friend, I’ll show you my fun and affectionate side.     •  With Other Dogs: I get along well with dogs my size and prefer calm, friendly companions. I like to take my time meeting new furry friends, so slow introductions work best for me.     •  With Cats: I’m curious about cats when I see them on walks, but I’m easily redirected with a gentle nudge.   On My Walks I’m an experienced walker and follow my human’s lead well. I don’t pull on the leash, and I enjoy exploring at a steady pace. In quieter areas, I feel at ease, but in a place I consider my own territory, I may need a little reassurance when meeting new dogs. With gentle guidance, I learn quickly and love getting out for fresh air and adventure!   Life at Home I’m a well-mannered pup who thrives in a home where I can feel safe and loved. I settle nicely in my kennel when needed, and I’m great at both indoor pad training and outdoor potty breaks. Since I’m a boy, I might mark in a brand-new place at first, but with a little patience, I quickly learn the house rules. I’m not much of a barker, but I do like to announce when someone new arrives—just to make sure my family is aware! When I feel at home, I love to play, cuddle, and share sweet moments with my humans.   My Ideal Home I’m looking for a family who will love and understand me for the wonderful dog I am. My perfect home would include:     •  A Patient Companion: I build trust at my own pace, and once I do, I’ll be the most devoted friend you could ask for.     •  A Playful Environment: I have an energetic, fun-loving side, and I’d love a home that enjoys playtime and little adventures together.   Special Notes If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and loving pup to share your life with, I just might be the one for you! I can’t wait to meet my forever family and start our new adventure together.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22ruL_rf8Ms&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JxVczlYokJ2Ixb-veFf59bB ##2309246##

Story
Quick Facts Name: Heukmi  Age: 1.5 year old (born October 2023)  Gender: Female  Neutered/Spayed: Scheduled April 2025  Breed: Terrier Mix  Color: Black  Weight: 10kg   ♣All About MeHi, I’m Heukmi! I’m a spunky little terrier mix, born around October 2023, with a sleek black coat and a curious heart. I weigh about 10kg (22lbs) and still have a lot of puppy energy in me! I came into the shelter system as just a tiny baby—only about a month old—when I was found wandering with no mom in sight. My best buddy Heukimja and I stuck together, and we were rescued just in time from the euthanasia list at the Miryang city shelter. Now I’m safe, and I’m ready to find the family I was meant for.   My PersonalityI’m playful, curious, and always up for affection! I love people, even if I’ve never met them before—I’ll happily come up for pets and lean in for snuggles. I can be a bit of a goofball, but I’m also sweet as can be. You can pick me up and carry me, no problem! I’m still learning about the world, so sometimes I get overwhelmed by new experiences, but I bounce back quickly with a little reassurance.   Social SkillsI love meeting other dogs and usually want to say hello to everyone. I can sometimes get a little protective over my food if another dog comes too close while I’m eating, so it’s best to give me some space at mealtime. I’ve spent a lot of time glued to Heukimja, my rescue sibling, and while I adore having dog friends, I’d also do great in a home where I can learn to stand on my own four paws. I haven’t met any cats yet, but I’m open-minded!   Energy and ActivitiesI’ve got that classic puppy energy—I play hard and nap even harder. I’m still young and full of wiggles, so I do best when I get enough playtime and outdoor fun. I’m currently learning how to walk on a leash, and while I’m still building confidence, I’m trying my best! When I get scared of a new sound or sudden movement, I might pancake to the ground, but with patience and support, I’ll grow braver every day.   Training and HabitsI’m a smart cookie and eager to please. I use both pee pads and go potty outside, depending on the situation. I’m still working on some basics, like leash walking and feeling confident when I’m alone, but I respond well to gentle guidance and positive reinforcement. I do sometimes bark to let you know I need something—whether that’s food, love, or a play session—but it’s all part of my puppy charm.   My Ideal HomeI’d love a home that understands my playful, energetic nature and is ready to help me continue growing into the amazing dog I’m meant to be. A family that can give me structure, attention, and affection would be perfect. If there’s another friendly dog in the home, even better—as long as they’re cool with a little pup energy! I may have had a tough start, but I’m full of potential, and I’m ready to give my whole heart to the humans who choose me.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Heukmi's YouTube Playlist ##2354611##

I absolutely adore people—whether I’ve known you for years or just met you, I’ll be the first to run up for pets and cuddles. I don’t hesitate to show affection, and I might even give you a little nuzzle or hop up on my hind legs just to say, “Hey, I love you!” When it comes to other dogs, I’m friendly and social, but I tend to prefer human companionship the most. I love playing with my people, following them around, and soaking up all the attention I can get.   On My Walks I’m still learning about the world, and sometimes new things can make me pause for a moment.

Story
Quick Facts Name: Atte Age: 1.5 year old (born August 2023)  Gender: Female Neutered/Spayed: Yes Breed: Terrier Mix  Color: Brown Weight: 7kg   All About MeHi, I’m Atte! I’m a petite 1.5-year-old terrier mix with a soft brown coat, weighing in at just 7kg (15.5lb). I spent the first part of my life living in a city shelter with my mom, so I didn’t get much exposure to the outside world—but now that I’m free, I’m slowly learning what it means to be a beloved pup.I’m a little shy at first, but give me a treat and some kindness, and I’ll be melting into your hands in no time. Once I trust you, I love to stay close and lean into your affection—especially after everything I’ve been through.   My PersonalityI have a sweet and gentle spirit. At first, I might seem a little unsure, but I’m not the type to hide or be fearful for long. Once I feel safe, I open up quickly and enjoy human company very much. I’m curious, observant, and a little silly once I feel at ease. I’ve never met children before, so I’ll need slow introductions, but I don’t mind being picked up and carried gently.   Social Skillslike other dogs and enjoy saying hi—especially if they’re close to my size—but I’m not always eager to play. Some dogs I love, others I’m more indifferent toward. I don’t have a strong preference; I just go with the flow and keep things peaceful.   Energy and ActivitiesI’ve got a balanced energy level. I enjoy exploring the outdoors and sniffing everything in sight, but I also know how to chill out and rest when I’m tired. That said, I’m still working on my leash manners. Sometimes I get excited and pull in the direction I want to go, and other times I’m too busy following a scent trail to notice the walk at all.   Training and HabitsI’m still learning! I need a bit more help with potty habits and leash skills. I’m also not a big fan of kennels right now—honestly, I really dislike being closed in. I’ll need someone patient to help me see it as a safe space over time. I’m not a barker, but if I want something badly enough, I might use a little voice to let you know.   My Ideal HomeI’m looking for a gentle, patient person or family who will help me continue my journey into the world. I’d love someone who doesn’t mind going at my pace, will give me guidance, and maybe has a calm doggy friend for me to learn from—or I can be your one and only! I may not have had the easiest start to life, but I have so much love to give.If you’re ready to open your heart to a little brown sweetheart with big eyes and an even bigger heart, I’d love to meet you.   For More YouTube Clips, Click Here!Atte's YouTube Playlist ##2363997##
