Story
Mags is a young, bright, emotionally big Standard Poodle who has had a busier start to life than most. She grew up in homes that cared about her, but none were quite equipped to manage her energy, her enthusiasm, or her tendency to become overstimulated. After finding herself in a shelter—confused, over-aroused, and unsure how to channel all her excitement—Mags came into SPIN’s care so she could finally get the structure and support she has always needed. She is an affectionate, social girl with a lot of love to give, but she experiences the world at full volume. New places, new people, and outdoor environments can cause her arousal to spike quickly, which leads to jumping, grabbing, and mouthy behaviour. None of this comes from a place of aggression—Mags simply hasn’t been shown how to regulate her emotions. Now that she’s in foster care and beginning to decompress, we’re finally getting to know the real Mags.

Story
Henry didn’t lose his home because he was unloved. In fact, he was adored. But sometimes life blindsides good people with impossible choices. After the arrival of a new baby, his owner’s allergies—previously manageable—intensified dramatically. Living together became unsafe and unworkable, and with heartbreak, she made the decision to surrender Henry so he could have the life he deserves.

Story
Thank you for your interest in Mozart. Some dogs get every opportunity. Mozart is not one of them. Despite his sweetness, loyalty, and gentle nature, life has handed this beautiful Standard Poodle the short end of the stick far too many times. He has been owned, surrendered, adopted, returned, adopted again, returned again, transferred to SPIN, moved between fosters, adopted once more — and then returned yet again. Each time, Mozart tried. Each time, he bonded. And each time, humans let him down. When a Quebec shelter reached out for help after his second return, we knew we had to step in. Beneath his stress and confusion, there was a wonderful dog whose emotional needs simply weren’t being met. Once in our care, we discovered he was a purebred Standard Poodle with a heart bigger than his struggles — and a history that finally needed to change. Today, Mozart has been with dedicated, experienced fosters for two months. He is decompressing, learning, and showing us exactly who he is when he feels safe and understood.

Story
Youngtu | 7 years old | Poodle Name: Youngtu Age: 7 years Sex: Spayed female Breed: Poodle Coat: Beige Weight: 3.2 kg Height: 30 cm (shoulder height)   Rescue Story   Youngtu was adopted as a puppy, but due to her adopter’s life circumstances—including the birth of a child and an overseas work assignment—she was unfortunately surrendered and returned to rescue. She has now been living in a foster home for about one month, where she has been adjusting well and enjoying the stability of home life again.   ‍ Human Socialization Youngtu is very affectionate and people-oriented. She approaches both familiar and unfamiliar people happily, rubs against them, and enjoys being touched. She tends to seek a lot of human attention and companionship.   She has not had direct experience with children under 13. Youngtu is comfortable being picked up with an arm under her belly and will often show her belly even to people she has just met—an indication of her friendly and trusting nature.   Dog Socialization Youngtu will approach unfamiliar dogs to greet them but generally does not engage in play. She tends to feel intimidated by dogs larger than herself.   If another dog provokes her, she may react defensively, so careful introductions are important, especially with new or unfamiliar dogs. When a new dog enters a space she was already occupying, she may attempt to assert herself by nipping toward the other dog’s rear or rushing toward them in a confrontational way. Proper management and guidance are recommended in multi-dog settings.   Cats On walks, Youngtu may look at cats with curiosity, but she follows her handler well and redirects easily when guided.   Energy Level Youngtu has a moderate energy level. She enjoys outdoor activities and walks, but settles calmly and rests quietly afterward.   ‍ Walks Youngtu is generally does not pull. She follows her handler well. When encountering other dogs on walks, she may sometimes pass calmly, but at other times may initiate or respond to tension—especially if the other dog growls. While injuries have not occurred, brief scuffles can happen, so continued leash manners training and attentive handling are recommended.   Additional Notes • No food guarding toward people • May growl if another dog approaches while she is eating (separate feeding works well) • Calm and well-mannered in a crate • Currently potty trained for both indoor and outdoor elimination   Youngtu is a loving, human-focused companion who would thrive in a home that can provide guidance, structure, and thoughtful dog introductions. With the right environment, she will be a deeply devoted and affectionate family member. Apply to adopt or foster https://adoptmekr.org  Please also visit our Facebook or Instagram.

Tis’ the Season to Adopt a Senior!!!!! Meet Lucas – Our Sweet Senior Looking for a Calm, Kid-Free Forever Home Lucas is a 12 lb poodle–schnauzer mix who was adopted from Coveted Canines 9 years ago and spent almost a decade as a deeply loved family member. As his family grew, it became clear that Lucas was not comfortable around little ones. The noise, crawling, and unpredictability of young children made him anxious, and he would react with barking and growling when he felt overwhelmed or unsure. His family did everything they could to keep him separated and feeling safe, but ultimately realized that Lucas would be happiest in a home without children, where he can enjoy his senior years in peace. Per their adoption contract, Lucas was returned to the same rescue he originally came from, and he is now thriving in his foster home. He lives with several dogs and gets along beautifully with them, often choosing to quietly cuddle up next to the other seniors. For his age, Lucas is in great health and enjoys a calm, predictable routine. He may be experiencing some hearing loss, which can contribute to his sensitivity in busy environments, but in a peaceful home he is relaxed, sweet, and content. Lucas is fully housetrained, has no food restrictions, and is an excellent candidate for condo living. All he wants is a quiet, loving home where he can be the centre of your world. Lucas has been vetted with core vaccines (dh2pp, rabies), neutered, microchipped, dewormed, on tick/heartworm and flea prevention, had a dental last year and his teeth are still ok. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate senior who will be your loyal companion, Lucas just might be your perfect match. If you can give this good senior boy the love and space he needs, please fill out a Canine Adoption Application on our website at: covetedcanines.org/application

Story
QUICK FACTS Name: Seongryong Age: 4 years old Gender: Male (Neutering Scheduled) Breed: Poodle Color: Black Weight: 5kg / 11lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed   MY RESCUE STORY I rescued from a city pound in South Korea after being placed on the euthanasia list due to lack of space. Thanks to timely rescue and kind care, I was given a second chance at life—and now I’m ready to find a loving family of my own.   MY HEALTH All vaccinations up-to-date Neutering to be scheduled & healthy with no known health issues   MY PERSONALITY I’m your textbook Poodle in both looks and personality! I adore people and truly soak up affection, pets, and quality time — human companionship is my favorite thing. I’m a smart boy who learns tricks super fast and loves showing off my clever side. If you’re looking for a loving, people-oriented pup with brains and charm, I might just be your perfect match!   MY SOCIAL SKILLS · With People: I absolutely love people, and everyone I meet instantly becomes my best friend! I’m a total lovebug who enjoys cuddling up in your arms and soaking in all the affection. I’m wonderful with kids and very gentle, and I’m comfortable being picked up — I just go along with it and enjoy the closeness. If you’re looking for a pup with a big heart and an even bigger love for people, that’s me! · With Dogs: I enjoy greeting new dogs, but I like to take things slow and don’t jump straight into play. I get along well with other dogs at the care facility, though I can feel a bit jealous when other pups receive attention or treats. Sometimes I try to sneak an extra treat for myself and can become sensitive if other dogs approach me while I’m eating. Because of this, thoughtful management during treat and meal times is important when other dogs are around. I’m still learning patience and would benefit from continued training. For now, I would thrive best as the only dog in a home, where I can enjoy one-on-one attention and build a strong bond with my caretaker. · 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 to high energy level and love getting my wiggles out before relaxing. Once I’ve had a good walk, playtime, or mental stimulation, I settle nicely indoors and enjoy being calm and content by your side. A balance of activity and downtime helps me be my best self!   TRAINING & HABITS I may pull on leash at times, but overall I walk well and do a nice job following my handler’s lead. I don’t guard my food with people, though I can be sensitive when other dogs are nearby during meals. I sometimes bark to get attention and am still learning how to settle calmly in my kennel, but I’m making progress. I currently potty both indoors and outdoors, and in new environments I may have a tendency to mark. With consistency, patience, and continued training, I’ll keep improving every day!   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, and a stable environment. A family that understands my rough past and is patient with me throughout. A family that enjoys outdoor & indoor time together. A family that will love and cherish me forever. A home where I’ll be the only dog. A home where I won’t be left alone for long periods of time as I crave for human attention.   SPECIAL NOTES I’m considered a Level 1 rescue dog, which means I tend to settle into new environments quickly and adjust with ease. Because I absolutely adore human attention, I form strong bonds with my family in no time at all. I have a big appetite and a huge love for food — which also makes me a quick and eager learner! With tasty rewards, affection, and consistency, I’m ready to shine in my forever home.   Seongryong's YouTube Playlist   Apply to foster or adopt: https://www.welcomedogkorea.org For Inquiries: info@welcomedogkorea.com ##2607574##
