Story
🐾 Meet Hailey - A Survivor with a Heart Full of Love 🐾 My name is Hailey, a resilient 6-year-old English Setter mix, currently living in a shelter in Turkey and I'm on a journey to find the loving family I've always deserved. My story is one of survival, resilience, and an unbreakable spirit. About Me: Age: 6 years (approximately) Breed: English Setter Mix (based on her look) Personality: Energetic, affectionate, and forever grateful. Despite a challenging past, my heart is filled with love, and I'm ready to share it with a family who will cherish me. My Story: My journey hasn't been easy. I was once used for breeding by heartless individuals who cared more about profit than my well-being. Thankfully, vigilant neighbours reported the backyard breeder to the city. In a desperate attempt to avoid charges, the breeder callously disposed of my precious puppies in a garbage bin before the authorities arrived. When the city discovered this heartbreaking scene, none of my puppies had survived. The city, recognizing the injustice I had endured, took me under their care. Eventually, a compassionate rescue stepped in, offering me a second chance at a life filled with love, care, and kindness. Favorites: Loves Humans: My heart craves human company. I thrive on affection and companionship, always seeking the warmth of a loving touch. Your love will be the healing balm to my wounded past. Energetic Explorer: Despite my history, I have an exuberant spirit and love to explore. Walks, playtime, and shared adventures are some of my favorite things. Resilient Survivor: I may have scars in my heart, but they tell a story of strength and resilience. I'm looking for a family that understands the power of love and is ready to provide a safe haven for my golden years. Adoption Information: Location: Currently seeking a forever home in a shelter in Turkey Health: The care I've received since my rescue has restored my health, and I'm ready to embark on a new chapter with a loving family. Ready for Love: Having known the worst of humanity, I am now ready to experience the best that a loving family has to offer. How You Can Help: If adoption isn't possible for you, you can still make a significant impact on my life. Consider supporting the rescue through donations, volunteering, or sharing my story to help me find a family that will cherish me forever. I'm ready to turn the page on my sad past and start a new chapter with a family who understands the true meaning of love. Are you ready to be the hero of my story? Let's create a future filled with love together! 🐾💖 Hailey can fly to Toronto or Vancouver when she finds her forever home!

Story
🐾 Meet Henry! 🐾 Currently in Hamilton, ON Are you ready to welcome a furry bundle of love into your home? Look no further than Henry, the charming 4-year-old male English Setter ready to steal your heart! Henry's journey began on the streets, but his luck turned around when he was rescued and adopted by a family. Unfortunately, the family's resident dog could not accept Henry and the family is worried about the other dog's aggression towards Henry. This is why Henry is looking for his forever home. From the moment you meet him, you'll be captivated by his friendly disposition and impeccable manners. This affectionate pup thrives on attention and will melt into your arms with his gentle nature. With a high energy level, Henry is the perfect companion for outdoor activities. Social butterflies, take note! Henry gets along famously with other dogs, making him an ideal addition to multi-pet households. We're unsure about his interactions with kids and cats. Henry has mastered basic training, though he may occasionally get excited and pull on his leash – a small quirk in an otherwise well-behaved pup. Rest assured, Henry is in the pink of health with up-to-date vaccinations and regular vet visits. All that's missing is his forever home, filled with love and laughter. If you're ready to open your heart and home to Henry, please fill out our adoption form; https://www.cheers2paws.org/dog-adoption-form

Story
Riley is a sweet, gentle, kind, and goofy boy. His breed is English Setter and is about 6 years old.  He lived happily on a rescue property with the owners and their other dogs. Riley and his doggy family were only surrendered due to his family's life situation.  He's been slow to decompress with the foster parents and shut down. Despite his initial fear and constant trembling, he has slowly built-up trust.  He now loves to be near his people.  He especially enjoys belly rubs and ear scratches.  As of yet he is not really interested in indoor/outdoor toys or brain puzzles.  He trembles when he sees new people but will allow gentle pets.   Riley is quiet and enjoys sleeping on the sofa next to his foster family during the day.  He sleeps at night next to the bed.  He occasionally jumps on the bed while his foster parents are sleeping.  When he first arrived, he hid behind the family room sofa and would rarely come out.  After just 2 weeks, he stopped hiding.  When Riley feels a bit overwhelmed, he goes up to the landing or back to the bedroom and rests there.  His worst fears are being outside.  He trembles when he hears the leash but with gentle coaxing, he will go out to do his business.  As soon as he is done, he turns arounds and heads home.  I honestly believe he will enjoy walks again, once he finds himself in his forever home.  When Riley encounters dogs, he initially boops noses and then becomes indifferent and continues on his walk.  In the home, he again boops noses with any visitor dogs and then goes up one level and watches everyone from there.  He will come down every once in a while, to check things out, and then separates himself, once more. He is a very special boy showing no aggression, despite his fears.  He would be the perfect pet for an older family with lots of patience.  At this time, it would be better for Riley not to be around young children.  Riley needs the time to adjust to this huge change in his life, in his own way.  If given the approval to be himself, Riley would provide so much love and happiness to everyone and everything around him. He needs a house with a fenced in backyard, he can't live in an apartment b/c elevators, all the new people and stress of getting from A to B would be too much for him.  More about Riley &#239&#130&#183  Good with dogs &#239&#130&#183  Reaction to new people: Nervous but gentle &#239&#130&#183  Housetrained. He will hold his needs for long periods.  &#239&#130&#183  Color: White with Black spots &#239&#130&#183  Activity level: Very laid back.  However, once he adjusts, he would probably enjoy walking more,  &#239&#130&#183  Indoor/outdoor: Indoor Only  May 4, 2024, 11:53 am

Background: Waffles has had quite the journey before finding his way to us. Originally living on the streets of Turkey, he was picked up by the municipal shelter, where life was tough and uncertain. Fortunately, kind-hearted volunteers intervened, rescuing him from the shelter's grim fate. Despite being released back onto the streets, fate led him back to the shelter, where he was once again taken in. Eventually, a compassionate rescue organization in Istanbul learned about Waffles and provided him with the safety and care he deserves. He currently lives in the shelter of the rescue in Istanbul. Personality: Waffles is a charming and intelligent dog who has quickly stolen the hearts of everyone he meets. He's incredibly social, getting along well with both cats and dogs, and he absolutely adores people. With his handsome appearance and warm personality, Waffles is sure to bring joy and laughter to any home lucky enough to welcome him. Ideal Home: Waffles is searching for his forever home, where he can finally experience the love and stability he deserves. He thrives on companionship and would do well in a home where he can spend plenty of time with his human family. A household with other pets would be a bonus, as Waffles enjoys the company of both cats and dogs. He's also very smart and would benefit from continued mental stimulation and training. Waffles is eagerly awaiting the chance to become a cherished member of your family and bring endless happiness into your life. Waffles can fly to Toronto or Vancouver when he finds his forever home!

Story
My name is Joong bak and I am a playful Retriever mix, aged 3. Sadly, for most of my life, I had to wander here and there, and no one knows where I am from. However, as there is no such a law that lets me die, I met a kind chairman who helped find a place to stay and get fed. Now, I want to move forward finding my forever home and share my happy virus to my family. If I had to sum myself up in one word, it would be 'Energetic!' I find joy in every activity, especially when it involves human companions. There's always a reason to be happy, right? Welcoming people with open paws is my forte, and I thrive on the love I receive through cuddles and, of course, snacks. I'm a snuggle expert, though my excitement can sometimes get the best of me due to my limited experience with humans. Hence, a family ready to handle my high energy level is strongly recommended. While I'm friendly, a household with cats or young children might not be the best fit, as my exuberance tends to express itself through jumping. My friendliness is extended to my doggie friends too. I can share treats and toys with them, and love to smell out each other. Enjoying fresh atmosphere with committed physical activity with friends makes me blessed. Being aggressive or assertive will be the last words you can find from me. I carry no aggression and boast an innocent and pure mind, as noted by my handler. Of course, outdoor activities are my No.1 things to do. I prefer to do my business outside, and I need to consume sufficient energy with intensive exercise which is very Retriever thing. If you can assist me in becoming a better walker, that would be the perfect gift. And imagine the joy we could share by exploring riversides or mountains together! I am waiting for someone who can show me a new world that is full of love and joy. I want to give my happiness and positive energy to the people I love. Would you be my forever family? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeUOCAIekfk&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyoM0Xd1XCH5Fr-GCde_DYW ❤ we accept both Canada/US applicants ❤
