Meet Jovie!
Smiling’s her favourite—and belly rubs are a close second!

Female | 4 months | 10 lbs | Mix Breed | UTD on Shots | Good with Kids & Dogs | Fostered in Toronto

Jovie was rescued from a Northern Manitoba community and took her freedom flight to Toronto in November. She’s settled beautifully into foster care and is ready to meet her forever family!

Jovie is a happy, outgoing, affectionate puppy who loves people, playtime, and belly rubs. She’s social, goofy (especially during her nightly zoomies!), but also an expert napper who settles well once she’s tired. She thrives on attention and closeness and loves being included in daily life.

She’d do best in a home where someone is around often, as she doesn’t enjoy long stretches alone. A fenced yard would be a bonus for play and exploration. She’s great with kids, though can get a little mouthy in typical puppy fashion.

Jovie is house-trained, crate-trained, walks nicely on leash, and knows several cues already. With continued guidance and routine, she’ll grow into the most loving, fun companion.

Jovie is ready for a family who wants a sweet, playful, people-loving pup to share their days—and their couch!

Meet sweet Stella!

Female | 2 years | 26 lbs | Boxer Mix | UTD on shots & scheduled to be spayed | Rescued from a Northern Manitoba community | Fostered in Toronto

Stella’s journey is nothing short of incredible. She was found in Berens River in critical condition while in labour—emaciated, exhausted, and fighting to survive. She was urgently flown to Winnipeg, where vets helped deliver her puppies. After losing one baby and being too weak to stand, Stella and her pups were placed with an amazing foster through K9 Advocacy Manitoba, who gave her the care she desperately needed. Slowly, she gained strength, learned safety, and began to heal.

Today, Stella is gentle, sweet, and quietly affectionate. She can be shy at first, but once she trusts you, she becomes the cuddliest companion with the softest heart. She enjoys a calm home, short positive walks, and a peaceful routine as she continues building confidence.

Stella is looking for a loving, quiet forever family who will give her the patience, safety, and tenderness she has always deserved. Her puppies, Randy and Judy, are also ready for adoption and thriving!

Meet Randy — your new little shadow! 🐾💙
Male | 8 weeks | 10lbs | German Shepherd Mix | Good with dogs, kids & cats | Fostered in Toronto

Rescued from a Northern Manitoba community with help from K9 Advocacy Manitoba, Randy has settled into foster life beautifully and is ready for his forever family!

Randy is a gentle, sweet, expressive little pup with moderate puppy energy—playful when he’s awake, snoozy and snuggly when he’s done. Curious, friendly, and social, he greets everyone with tail wags and loves being close to his people. He’s great with kids and respectful of the resident cat.

This adaptable boy can thrive in almost any loving home—families, first-time dog owners, or anyone wanting a loyal companion. A yard is a bonus but not required; he just needs playtime, interaction, and a home that offers patience and gentle structure as he grows.

Randy is already learning sit, come, and stay, progressing well with crate training, and doing great with house training for his age. With 30–60 minutes of daily activity through play, short walks, and enrichment, he balances zoomies with long, cozy naps.

Randy is a smart, loving pup who will blossom with routine, guidance, and lots of affection. If you’re looking for a cuddly companion ready to grow into an amazing family dog, Randy is your guy! 💙

Meet Lucy — the little light of your life! ✨💛
Female | 3 months | 9lbs | Terrier Mix (Potcake) | Good with dogs | UTD on shots | Fostered in Toronto

Lucy came to Toronto from Antigua and has settled beautifully into her foster home. She’s a calm, sweet, easygoing pup who loves to play, explore, and cuddle. Expect short bursts of zoomies followed by long, cozy naps. She’s friendly with everyone—dogs and people—and is a quiet girl, making her perfect for apartments or houses.

Lucy is an adaptable pup who can thrive anywhere: condo, apartment, or home in the city or suburbs. She does well with part-time alone time as long as she gets a mid-day break and some fun before and after work. A yard is a bonus, but not required—she’s happiest wherever her people (and soft blankets!) are.

She’s a smart cookie, already learning sit, down, come, and wait. Lucy sleeps through the night in her crate, is doing great with house training, and is picking up leash manners and recall. With 1–2 hours of daily activity, she balances her puppy energy with plenty of peaceful rest.

Lucy is sweet, snuggly, and the perfect blend of playtime and naps. If you’re looking for a gentle little adventure buddy with a big heart, Lucy is ready for you! 💛🐾

Meet Ralphie — the star of your Christmas story! 🎄✨
Male | 4 months | 15lbs (est. 45lbs fully grown) | Great with dogs & kids | UTD on shots

Rescued from Antigua and now thriving in his Toronto foster home, Ralphie is a sweet, social, silly pup who loves everyone he meets. He’s playful in the mornings, chill throughout the day, and a total pro in his crate. Outdoors he’s curious and adventurous; indoors he’s calm and cuddly.

Ralphie is house-trained, knows sit, paw, stay, walks well on leash, and has great recall. He enjoys 30–60 mins of daily exercise and sleeps through the night. He does have some separation anxiety, so he’ll need an adopter who can work on alone-time training and offer lots of companionship.

He’d thrive in almost any home—family, first-time owners, rural or city—just needs love, structure, and playtime.

Ralphie’s ready for his forever family! ❤️

Three more happy tails! 💛
We’re thrilled to share that Nugget, Dug and Belly have all found their forever homes! These three cuties stole hearts from the start, and now they’re off to begin their new adventures surrounded by love. We couldn’t be happier for them — and for the lucky humans who get to call them theirs!
