Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.NYX hails from the Northern community of Fort Severn and came south to find her forever home. She’s received her first 2 sets of vaccines, a microchip, dewormer and has been deemed a healthy girl by her vet. She was part of a litter of 6 puppies but this rescue only received the last remaining one. We have no information on her parents so the size she’ll grow to be or her breeds are just an educated guess. When people meet her they always say what breeds is she and why is she so small; the reply is a Border Collie/Husky mix (judging by what she looks like) whose been put in a shrinking machine. Se have no idea why she’s so small but it shouldn’t be assumed she’ll be a small dog. She’s an active little lady who loves to run around and play with her toys and also chew on her many toys and with her sharp little teeth, she needs to have lots of chewy toys like Nyla bones to chew on.  NYX is crate trained and sleeps quietly in it at night and she’ll also nap in it during the day too. House training is going really well and she’s very good at letting you know when she has to go out. Every time she’s taken out for a bathroom break she’ll go so she’s really catching on to what’s expected of her when she has an trip outside. She loves going on walks and gets excited when she knows she’s going on one. Like all puppies though she’ll race ahead of you and pull you along. She has very good manners at meal times and will sit nicely for them and also take her treats “gentle.” NYX’ ideal family would be an active one that loves to go on hikes and walks plus will take her on little adventures especially seeing as she travels so well in a vehicle. She’ll do well in a home with other dogs as she’s fostered with several of them and she’s well socialized with them too. She maybe small but she’s mighty and she won’t let the other dogs get the better of her and when she’s had enough of them, she’ll let them know with her feisty attitude. There’s several foster kittens in the home and they’ll run away from her except Amethyst or Chipmunk. They’re the ones who will play and wrestle with her while the other ones just look on with mild curiosity. Children should be aged 6yrs and up plus be puppy savvy as this little girl can be a toe chewer and a sock puller. They should also be kind, loving and gentle towards animals. She does require a fenced-in yard so she can be kept safe while she has a run around and play. Puppies are cute, playful and fun but also require a lot of time, patience and dedication to training. We do need her adopter to be in agreement to take her for puppy/obedience training to help her to become the best girl possible. Her spay is included in her adoption fee and her potential adopter must be in agreement to have her spayed by the time she’s 6 months of age. The surgery will be at the Barrie SPCA but you can use your own vet and we’ll reimburse you what we would’ve paid for it there. In order for the rescue to do so we need the spay requirements to still be followed plus a copy of the procedure invoice and a picture of her (preferably in her onsie or cone) in order to do the reimbursement. We do post the picture on our fb page along with other pets that were “fixed” in the same week.  If NYX sounds like she’ll suit your family and lifestyle then please submit an adoption application to meet her. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 3, 2025, 10:35 pm
