Maple - APP IN PROCESS

Female | 2 years old | 35lbs | Medium Energy | Shy but building confidence with other dogs | Dog savvy cats may work | Hasn’t met kids but think she’d be good with dog savvy kids | From Mexico | Fostered in Toronto | Curious & sweet

From the sunny streets of Mexico to their warm foster home, Maple’s journey has got them here to being adoptable!

When she first arrived, she was a shy little soul—nervous and uncertain, but always sweet and gentle. With a lot of love, some patience, and guidance, she’s blossomed into a highly curious and charming dog. 🐾 Her fosters say she's just like Red Riding Hood. Every corner needs sniffing, every sound needs investigating—it’s like she’s wandering her own little forest every day. Plus, she's got a bit of a fox look, don't you think?

Maple is just warming up to the city but she seems to do fine in Toronto and could benefit from continued encouragement, guidance and positive exposure outside. She has done well in an apartment building and think she'd make a good condo dog. She's good in her crate with continued routine.

Maple has not met many other animals, but initially seems shy of dogs but with guidance we think can be fine as a solo dog or with other pets. She has no cat experience in foster care, she has chased squirrels on walks but is calm indoors. Dog savvy cats may be good with her, if she is given guidance. Kids too, she hasn’t met them but with slow warm up and management, we can see her doing fine with a family.

Maple’s big, soulful eyes will melt your heart. Her playful curiosity is infectious - every walk is an adventure, every cuddle a moment of pure joy. And don’t even get us started on her loyalty! She loves her humans so much that you’ll find yourself missing her the moment you step out the door.

She’s obedient, smart and ready to give her whole heart to a family who will love & care her back. She seems like a good fit for a solo owner, family and even first time dog owners!

SAIRI - APP IN PROCESS

Female | 11 months old | 40 Pounds (may grow more) | Puppy Energy | Good exposure with other dogs | Not cat tested | Good exposure with dog-savvy kids | From Mexico | Fostered in Burlington | Playful, nervous but sweet

Sairi is a sweet, cuddly, and playful adolescent who’s quickly adjusting to life in her foster home. She’s still a bit nervous about new situations but is brave, and her affectionate nature shines through as she gets more comfortable. Sairi loves people which includes some kids. She is a mix breed, is about 40lbs at 11 months old. 

Her ideal day: Sairi thrives on structure and activity. A typical day for her includes potty breaks, walks, playtime, and naps. She’s an energetic pup who loves to run and play, especially if there’s another dog to chase. She enjoys 30+ minute walks at a brisk pace and would happily go on hikes or strolls around the neighborhood. After her walks, she’s ready for a nap, but she’ll happily play with toys or cuddle on the couch when she’s welcomed for some engagement. A great way to use her brain and bond with her is by working on skills. 

Good exposure with people & dogs, Sairi has been good with kids, enjoying their company as long as they approach her calmly. But, we know that's not always how kids exist so making sure an adult human is helping manage interactions is perf for setting her up for success. She’s also been getting along well with other dogs she's met—she loves to run and play with them but also respects their space. She’d thrive with an active dog who enjoys play sessions, as she’s energetic and loves company.

Sairi is still building her confidence, so she needs a home that is willing to provide plenty of structure, guidance and learnings. She’s also still working on potty training and crate training, but with consistency, she’s making progress. She would do well with an adopter who is active, loves to walk or hike, and has the time to do classes and bonding activities for her development (and theirs). A family that can continue working on her confidence and help her overcome her nervousness will be the perfect match.

Fun fact: She’s also fascinated by fabric, so if you have a soft blanket or a pair of gloves lying around, be warned—she might just nibble on them!

If you’re looking for a sweet, loving puppy who’s ready to become your best friend with a little time and patience, Sairi could be the perfect fit for your home!

The Playful, Sassy Pup! Remy is a sweet and energetic little puppy with a big personality! She's a quick learner, mastering commands like "sit," "paw," and "spin" in no time.

She’s a curious, food-motivated girl who enjoys playtime, mental stimulation, and bonding with her people.

Her Ideal Day: Remy thrives with a routine that includes play, walks, and downtime. She’s an active pup and loves to engage in enrichment activities and interactive toys. After a morning potty break, she’s ready to play, and go for her walk and then settle down for food and a nap. Then everything repeats. She also enjoys cuddles and spending time with her people, but she’s also independent and happy to entertain herself with toys when needed.

Remy loves meeting new people and is friendly and affectionate, although she can get nervous if people approach too quickly. She’s also doing well with other dogs and is playful. Remy would be a great fit for a home with other dogs or kids (older kids due to her teething). She does get nippy during her teething phase, so chew toys are a must! She is currently being fostered with cats and could do well with dog savvy cats with continued guidance and management. 

Remy is looking for an active home that can keep up with her energy. She’d do well with a family or individuals who have the time to provide her with the exercise, training, and love she craves. Remy will need continued potty training (to keep things up) and some guidance to refine her leash skills, but she’s already a fast learner and loves to please.

If you're ready for a playful, snuggly, and spirited pup, Remy could be the perfect fit for your home! If you're ready to guide a puppy with ALL things, then get your application in.

NEON - APP IN PROCESS

Male | 1 Year Old | 45lbs | Puppy Energy | Good exposure with other dogs | No cat exposure | Good exposure with dog-savvy kids | From Mexico | Fostered in Toronto | Playful, attentive & loving

Neon is a gentle and affectionate 45lb, 1-year-old dog with a calm and loving personality. He’s quick to bond with his humans and enjoys being near them, whether it’s for cuddles or a game of fetch. Neon is an easygoing dog who adapts well to new routines and environments. He loves his toys and is particularly fond of squeaky and crinkle toys or sticks will do, which he’ll entertain himself with for short bursts before seeking attention from his family.

Since arriving in his foster home, Neon has made great progress. Initially fearful of floors and stairs, he now navigates the house with confidence and happily follows his foster family around. He’s housebroken and crate trained with routine, and he’s learned to ask for outdoor potty breaks by running to the door.

Neon loves people, kids included. He’s gentle with children he's met (aged 8+) and enjoys meeting new people, though he can be excitable and may jump up when greeting them. He’s also been good with other dogs, though he’s more interested in people than in playing with other pups. Neon would be just as happy as the only dog in the home but a dog companion works too.

While he’s not overly excitable, Neon does have some prey drive and can be distracted by squirrels or birds. He’s a quick learner and is currently being trained on basic commands, although he’s still mastering "sit" and "stay." He’d do well in a home with someone who can provide consistent growth.

Neon is a delightful, affectionate companion who would thrive in a home where he can get regular exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of love. Like all pups. He’s a people dog who will quickly become your best friend and loyal companion.

Ideal Home: Neon would do well with a single person or family who can give him attention, structure, and patience as he continues to learn and grow. He’s beginning to get super curious and maybe that will lead him to finding his forever home!
