Pomeranian puppies and dogs in Binbrook, Ontario

At 5–6 years old and just 16 pounds, Ellana is a Pomeranian-Chihuahua mix with a big personality in a tiny, fluffy body. A survivor of a house fire/hoarding situation and once on the euthanasia list, she’s been through more than most—but she’s come out the other side with her spark intact… and a healthy sense of knowing what she likes. Ellana is “perfectly imperfect.” With her adorable waddle, signature snaggle tooth, and cloud-soft coat, she turns heads everywhere she goes. She also has a small neurological mouth “tick” (like a fish out of water), which doesn’t bother her at all—it’s just part of her charm. She enjoys the company of other dogs and cats, but prefers a calm, orderly environment where she can play “hall monitor” and keep things from getting too rowdy. Ellana is looking for a quiet, adult-only home where she can feel safe and understood. She bonds deeply, but at her own pace—once you’re in her circle, you’re truly her person. She appreciates clear boundaries, doesn’t love being startled or picked up unexpectedly, and may give a little grumble to share her opinion. Don’t let her mild arthritis fool you—this girl still loves her walks and will happily dance at the sight of a leash.**she will easily take pain meds to help ease the pain, and they are given as needed** She enjoys affection in short bursts and will nudge you when she’s ready for love. She’s also food-motivated and knows “sit,” “lay down,” and “wait.” Ellana can be a bit of a “fear reactor” if rushed and has nipped when startled, so she needs an adopter committed to going slow and respecting her cues. With patience, she quickly relaxes and shows her sweet, loyal side. She isn’t difficult—she’s discerning. A little sass, a lot of heart, and so much love to give. Could you be her person? 🐾💖

Nikita is a beautiful 3-year-old Pomsky (Pomeranian/Husky mix) weighing approximately 27 lbs. With her striking black, grey, and white coat, subtle auburn highlights that shimmer in the sunlight, fluffy tail, and unique brown eyes (one of which has a spark of Husky-like blue), she turns heads wherever she goes. Many people who meet her assume she's simply a Husky puppy because she looks like a smaller, fluffier version of the breed with an especially sweet face and expressive eyes. While her appearance is certainly eye-catching, it's Nikita's gentle soul and remarkable journey that make her truly special. Nikita came to Pound Dog Rescue after spending her life as a puppy mill breeding dog. As far as we know, she had very little opportunity to experience the things most dogs take for granted: leisurely walks, a backyard to explore, loving companionship, or simply the freedom to be a dog. When she first arrived at her foster home, she was understandably nervous and uncertain about this unfamiliar world. She spent most of her time on one couch indoors and had a single corner of the backyard that served as her safe place. She had never learned to walk on a leash, would not take treats from a person's hand, and preferred to eat only when nobody was nearby. Fast forward two months, and her transformation has been wonderful to witness! Nikita now comfortably explores every room in the house and happily jumps onto the couch beside her foster family for head scratches and chin tickles. She comes in from the backyard when called and no longer hesitates to approach her people. She has discovered that walks can actually be enjoyable and now eagerly reminds her foster family when it's time to head out. She has even started "talking" to them with adorable little Husky-style "rowr" sounds when she'd like breakfast or a walk. They're impossible not to smile at! One of Nikita's greatest joys is spending time in the backyard. A securely fenced yard is a must for her future home, as outdoor exploration has become an important part of her confidence-building journey. She loves wandering the perimeter, sniffing all the interesting scents, watching birds, investigating squirrels, and occasionally breaking into joyful zoomies around the yard. One of her cutest habits is rolling onto her back and wriggling around in the grass. Sometimes she'll even roll herself down a small hill just for fun! Inside the home, Nikita is remarkably easy to live with. She is calm, quiet, gentle, and very low-maintenance. She spends much of her day relaxing in one of her favourite spots: in her crate (with the door open), on the couch beside her people, or out in the yard enjoying the fresh air. She enjoys the occasional stuffed toy but has never shown any interest in chewing household items or getting into mischief. She does not counter-surf, steal food, or rummage through belongings. Her meals are easy to prepare and she requires no special medications.. Nikita is fully house trained and has not had a single accident in her foster home. She quietly signals at the back door when she would like to go outside and is excellent at holding it until shes outside to do her business. She is also one of the most comfortable crate dogs her foster family has ever encountered. Her crate is truly her happy place. She sleeps quietly in it every night and often chooses to spend time there during the day even when the door is open. She can comfortably be left alone for several hours and simply relaxes until her people return. When it comes to affection, Nikita is still learning that people can be trusted. She enjoys companionship and likes being near her people, but she isn't a dog who immediately climbs into laps or demands attention. Instead, she offers affection in quieter ways. She happily accepts head scratches, ear rubs, and chin scratches, and she has become increasingly comfortable settling beside her foster family on the couch. Building a relationship with Nikita is a gradual process, but each little step forward feels meaningful and rewarding. Nikita currently walks two to three times per day for about 15 to 20 minutes at a time. Learning to walk on a leash has been one of her biggest accomplishments. Initially, she found leashes frightening and didn't understand what was being asked of her. Today she willingly allows her leash to be put on and genuinely enjoys her walks. Loud or unfamiliar noises such as construction work, lawn equipment, or sudden barking can still make her uncomfortable, and when she feels unsure she prefers to pull back toward home. However, her confidence continues to grow with each outing. She has met other dogs and generally does well with them. While she may be cautious at first, she warms up quickly after a polite introduction and seems to enjoy canine company. Another calm dog in the home could be a wonderful influence, although it is not a requirement. She has not been tested with cats. Nikita would do best in an adult-only home (18+) or a home with adult children. She is uncomfortable around young children and finds their energy, noise, and unpredictability overwhelming. She thrives in calm, predictable environments where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace. Health-wise, Nikita is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and in excellent health. She handles veterinary visits well and tolerates routine handling and examinations without issue. Grooming is straightforward, although regular brushing is important. Like many fluffy Husky mixes, she sheds moderately to heavily, and brushing once or twice a week will help keep loose fur under control. Because Nikita spent her early years in a puppy mill, her future family should understand that her journey is still unfolding. She has already made tremendous progress, but she is not yet the finished version of herself. She will need patience, understanding, and continued encouragement as she learns that the world can be a safe and wonderful place. What she offers in return is something truly special. Nikita has a gentle, sensitive heart. She is not looking for a household full of excitement or constant activity. She is looking for someone she can trust. Someone who will celebrate the small victories, respect her pace, and take joy in watching her confidence grow. For the right person, helping Nikita become her true self may be one of the most rewarding experiences dog ownership has to offer. Every week she becomes a little braver, a little more playful, and a little more comfortable being herself. We can't wait to see how far she goes, and we know her future family will be proud to be such an important part of Nikitas journey!

Snowball is a lovely, 2 year old, six pound spirited little guy who craves affection in the house and is adventurous outdoors. While he might shy or nip at a hand coming at him at first, he has warmed up to the dogs and people in his foster home quite nicely. We have a female lab and a neutered male Pomeranian who he gets on with now without issue.  When he first arrived he was a bit overwhelmed as he had lived a sheltered life with a family that didn't take him out much and who had never had a dog before.  He currently lives with a husband and wife team who had been allowing him to blossom in own time and space and it's working nicely for Snowball. There are no children or cats in the home, nor were there kids or cats in his original home. He doesn’t require a great deal of exercise, his housetrained and fine when left alone.  His current diet is gastro can. He is food motivated. He's been groomed and overall did well, just a few minor objections.  Snow is ready to give and receive affection and attention. He has the same gene as dogs like Chinese Crested,  Pomeranians are highly predisposed to a hereditary hair loss condition known as Alopecia X (often called "Black Skin Disease"). While the exact genetic trigger for Alopecia X is still being researched , it heavily affects breeds with plush undercoats. June 11, 2026, 8:49 am

QUICK FACTS Name: Dodo Age: 4 years old Gender: Male (Neutered) Breed: Pomeranian Jindo mix Color: Brown Weight: 5kg / 11lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I was rescued from the euthanasia list at a crowded city pound, where my future became uncertain simply because there was no more space left for dogs like me. Through no fault of my own, my time was running out. Thankfully, kind rescuers stepped in just in time and gave me a second chance at life. Now, I’m finally safe and hoping to find a loving forever family where I can truly belong.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY I can be shy in the beginning, but I promise I’m worth the wait. Beneath my timid side is a super cute, loving, and gentle boy who just needs a little patience and understanding to fully come out of his shell. I would do best with a family that understands rescue dogs and is willing to let me build trust at my own pace. I rely a lot on my dog friends for emotional support, and having calm, supportive companions around me helps me open up more quickly and feel safe. Even with my shy moments, I’m generally a bright, positive boy who wants to connect and experience the world with confidence and love.   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I can be shy at first, but I’ll gently take treats from your hands and slowly accept soft pets as I get comfortable. I also allow myself to be picked up and handled gently. Even though I may seem timid in the beginning, I’m a very gentle and sweet boy at heart, and with patience and kindness, I truly do warm up. In a home environment where I can feel safe and settled, I’m confident I’ll bond with my new family relatively quickly and show my loving personality more and more each day. · With Dogs: I’m super friendly with my dog friends and love greeting new dogs and playing with them. I tend to get along best with dogs of a similar size, where I feel the most comfortable and confident. I’m also very much a peacekeeper and prefer to avoid conflict, even if another dog is being pushy or rude. Rather than escalating situations, I usually choose to stay calm and move away. I also rely a lot on my dog friends for emotional support, and having calm, friendly companions around me helps me feel more secure and confident. · With Cats: My reaction to cats is unknown. A cat test can be arranged upon request to ensure the best fit.   ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY I have a moderate energy level. I enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it’s going for walks or exploring, but once I’ve had my activity, I’m more than happy to come inside, curl up, and enjoy a cozy nap or snuggle session.   TRAINING & HABITS I’m still improving my leash skills and building confidence every day. Overall, I walk well and follow my handler’s lead nicely, especially once I feel comfortable. I do best in quieter areas, as sudden loud noises can still startle me sometimes. With patience and continued positive experiences, I’m continuing to grow more confident. I have great manners around food and don’t guard my meals from people or other dogs. I also know how to rest calmly in my kennel and settle well when it’s time to relax. I’m comfortable using both pee pads indoors and going potty outside, making me adaptable to different routines and environments.   MY IDEAL HOME I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with: • A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment • A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout • A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together • A family that will love and cherish me forever • A home with another dog sibling – not an absolute requirement   SPECIAL NOTES Volunteers and staff compliment me every day on how sweet and adorable I am. Even though I may seem shy at first, I actually adjust and adapt quite quickly once I start feeling safe and comfortable. My shyness mostly comes from meeting new people in the beginning, but I’m naturally curious and enjoy slowly approaching to get to know you. I especially love taking treats gently from people’s hands, which helps me build trust and confidence quickly.   DODO'S YOUTUBE PLAYLIST   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.co ##2736193##

This stunning boy is Link and he is so excited to start his new life! Link is a 1-½ year old Shiba Inu mixed with Pomeranian (unique right??) with a soft black and dark brown coat and a telltale sickle tail that rarely stops moving! At around 25lbs, he is active and agile and built for speed with a long body and short, strong legs. He has soulful brown eyes and a pearly white, million dollar smile. Link is a very sweet and devoted companion who needs a family to help him continue to get the socialization and confidence that he so needs. Link was picked up as a stray and taken to a pound where he remained unclaimed. He was very uncomfortable in that environment, pacing around his enclosure non-stop. Thankfully, PDR stepped in and whisked him away to the safety of a foster home where he was able to truly relax and show his playful, energetic self. Link has been a wonderful houseguest and has learned so much in the short time he has been with us. He is looking for a family who will be committed to continuing his training and socialization as he has shown to be incredibly smart and eager to please. Link has a healthy dose of stranger danger which is quieted by ensuring all introductions are slow and controlled. Link will do best in a house with enough space to allow for his happy, playful antics and he has made a special request for a backyard. I have not yet found the end of his energy so his forever family should be looking for an active dog who is ready to accompany them on walks, hikes, runs, bike rides, and/or training – and a good romp in the backyard when he still needs to expend a bit of energy. Link goes for multiple walks a day and has become very good on the leash. On days when paying attention is a little more of a struggle, he has been learning how to walk with a gentle leader and this really makes a big difference. When we took him in he was nervous of everything and would bark at anyone approaching but he has found quite a bit of confidence and with some guidance he has learned that he is safe. Carrying a bag of treats doesn’t hurt either! This is where we have done our most work helping him be calm around strangers. He has become much more calm although sometimes when excited he will still circle in his crate just to be sure you can SEE how excited he is! He is a relatively quiet dog in the home, only howling or whining a bit if he feels he’s missing out on something. When someone comes to the door or into the house for the first time, he is true to his breed and can be vocal but settles well and quickly. Link is a big lover – the minute I get down on the ground with him he flops over into my lap for some affection and would lay there all day if I let him. He is also an experienced couch potato and is happy to curl up for some cuddles after a good walk. He has been a model student, learning his manners in the home. His last hurdle in the house is just remembering that he is expected to be calm and settled – learning a ‘place’ command has greatly helped with this. Link is a wonderful companion for anyone who enjoys working with a dog – training and working as a team. He would absolutely EXCEL at dog sports and at the very least, his new family should be interested in pursuing advanced levels of training. He is smart and he will need the mental exercise to go with his physical routines. Link is also a toy connoisseur with a specialty in chewing – he gathers his toys around him and plays a round robin tournament, joyfully moving from toy to toy to toy. He is very quickly redirected if he strays from his toys to something that does not belong to him but, as a young and inexperienced dog, he does need that level of supervision in the home. He is crate trained and is crated whenever I am out of the house or if I am unable to pay attention to him. On days when I work in the office this means he is crated in the morning and again in the afternoon with a walk at lunch. He could maintain this schedule as long as his family is willing to devote proper time to him outside of work. He goes to his crate when asked and has even put himself in there at the end of the day. He also eats all of his meals in his crate. The crate training has ensured that he is housebroken, never having an accident in the house (save a gastro upset in his crate in the beginning of his time here). It will be important for his forever family to keep up this crate training with him to ensure success in his new home. Link is still nervous on car rides and rides in a crate for everyone’s safety. He whines and circles in the crate for a bit before eventually settling down. Continued exposure and confidence building should see this become less stressful for him. It’s clear he was loved in his last home but he is largely under socialized so he is just a bit behind in this kind of development. His new family needs to be willing to keep getting him out into the world so he can keep evolving into the wonderful dog that he is. Link has received several baths while in his foster home, each being a little easier than the last. He’s not going to volunteer for such a task but he is understanding that it is necessary and harmless to cooperate. Luckily, his soft and luxurious coat does not require a lot of grooming so regular baths and some brushing are enough to keep him shiny and comfortable. Link is being fostered in a home with extra small dogs and does his best around them. He is not aggressive to them but he’s just so happy to see them! His energetic movements are a little much for them and he could inadvertently knock them down so their time together is closely monitored. He would be fine in a home with another dog of the same or larger size as long as they were also young and ready for Link’s playful personality. He would also have no trouble being the only dog in the house and that might be a benefit for a family to be able to give him the attention and training that he requires. Link is untested with cats but I would be concerned that his strong prey drive would make for a stressful relationship. When we are out walking, Link is a hunter with a preference for rabbits (but anything that runs or flies is fair game to him). He is relatively unaffected when we see other dogs out walking and we have been participating in a dog training class where he is also unfazed by other dogs in the room. He was nervous of the people in the class and training the class but after week #1 his fears were gone. He very much needs a calm and controlled first meeting and then seems to relax around new people. Link has met some young neighborhood friends and has done very well with them. He can be a bit wary of new or loud noises so he would likely be stressed in a home with small children. A calm, adult only home or one with teenage children would be a fine fit for him. We just need to be sure that anyone interacting with him in the home can stick to the training that he will be getting so that he can keep building his confidence and trust with consistency and patience. When we realized how under socialized Link was, we enrolled him in Level One training at a local dog training academy. We wanted to get him some helpful exposure in an environment that we knew would be safe. To say he has done well would be an understatement – he is the star pupil! His intelligence, his devotion to his handler and his love of treats make him an unstoppable force in the classroom. Learning at home and in the classroom, he has built up a small toolbox of commands that he knows and he adds all the time. He has also learned to respond to corrections with a well placed AHH AHH. There is no end to his ability and he would do well with a family who loves dog training and can commit to life long training for this very special boy. When Link was picked up by the pound he was already neutered. Since then he has received all the proper vaccinations and tests appropriate for his age. He was an itchy boy to start but that has settled and may have been partially the nervousness he felt in the shelter. We have him on a food that is safe for allergies just in case as he has no official diagnosis for allergies at this time. He is in great shape and is sitting at the proper weight after being found underweight. Link handles the vet as he handles any other unknown people so slow introductions with LOTS of treats made the vet visit go smoothly. Link is an absolute gem of a dog who needs a family who WANTS to work with a dog. He needs more socialization and a family who will keep him feeling safe in the world. He promises to pay you back in endless cuddles and non stop game play. An active family who are looking for a dog to participate in their adventures would be a dream come true for this boy. Once he knows his people, his bond is strong and pure and when he moves on to his forever family he will leave a hole in our home that we won’t soon forget. If you’re looking for an agile dog, a big dog in a small dog frame, and a co-pilot for all of life’s adventures, please fill out an application – we’ll be here sorting our toys and waiting to speak to you.
