This pup is ready to snuggle his way into your heart! Weston is a six-month-old affectionate and friendly boy who is also smart, food motivated, and loves to learn! When he's not getting cuddles or learning new tricks, he shows off his goofy side during playtime. Weston especially likes playing with stuffies, balls, and squeaky toys. Weston is still working on his housetraining and has shown early signs of food guarding, so an adult-only home with dog experience would be perfect!

If Weston's puppy-dog eyes and adorable smile have worked their magic on you, adopt him at omhs.ca/dogs

Right now, seven precious puppies - just eight weeks old - are fighting for their lives.

As you may know from our email on April 8th, these orphaned puppies were given their health exams, deworming and their first set of vaccines. All appeared to be going smoothly.

But then, things changed, fast!

The puppies began to decline. Lethargy; vomiting; severe diarrhea. Tests confirmed what we feared most. They had become seriously ill with Canine Parvovirus (Parvo) a highly contagious, at times fatal disease, most often seen in puppies and young unvaccinated dogs.

We acted immediately.

The puppies received treatment—antibiotics, anti-nausea medication and subcutaneous fluids multiple times a day and were closely monitored by a veterinarian and our team of Registered Veterinary Technicians and Animal Care Attendants.

Despite the outpatient treatment, five of the puppies declined further and stopped eating entirely. Needing immediate hospitalization with aggressive care, they were admitted to three different emergency veterinary hospitals over the Easter long weekend.

Two of these five puppies became so weak they required feeding tubes to deliver nutrition directly to their stomachs.

The cost of this life-saving care? $15,000.

Without immediate intervention, these puppies would not have survived. And while they’ve made it this far, they are not out of danger yet.

But there is hope. With your support, we can continue to provide life-saving care not only to these puppies, but to all the other animals at OMHS who rely on us.

OMHS relies entirely on donations to provide the care, comfort and medical treatment animals need. Your compassionate support gives these seven puppies, and so many others, a real chance to heal, grow and find the safe and loving homes they deserve. Thank you to those who gave so generously to our last appeal, and to those who will now dramatically change the course of these puppies’ lives for the better.

Donate now at omhs.ca/care to raise funds for the life-saving care of these puppies and so many other vulnerable animals in need.

These sweet buns are still searching for their forever home! Ruby and Flubby are inseparable and do everything together—grooming, snuggling, and exploring side-by-side.

Ruby and Fluffy also like to spend time with people and will happily hop over for attention and pets.

If this sweet and sassy pair sound perfect for you, adopt Ruby and Fluffy for double the trouble at omhs.ca/smallanimals

Time flies when you're having fun, and Piper's one-year adoption anniversary has come in a flash! Congrats to Piper and her family for one whole year of love in this 🐶💖

"Mark and I just wanted to take a moment to reach out and share a special update with you as we celebrate the one-year anniversary of welcoming Piper home.

It feels like just yesterday we were bringing home our sweet puppy, and now, one year later, we are filled with so much love. Piper has been the absolute best – she has filled our families hearts with so much happiness.

We are so thankful to everyone who cared for Piper before we adopted her.

Thank you again for all that you do and for bringing us together with our little P. We are sending lots of love and gratitude to you all!"

Did you know that Zebra Finches mate for life? Bella and Buddy love nothing more than each other and are very rarely seen not cuddling! They spend their time singing together, grooming each other, and flitting from perch to perch side by side. Buddy is often seen watching and admiring his fluffy wife as she eats or curls up for a nap. Watching their special connection is sure to bring extra warmth and joy to any home!

If this pair of lovey-dovey Finches sound like the ones for you, adopt Bella and Buddy at omhs.ca/smallanimals

Are you in need of a little feline friend to keep your barn or outdoor structure in line? Our Barn Buddy Program helps place cats that would not be happy living traditional cat lives inside homes, but would make amazing "working cats." You provide them a safe, warm place to live, and they help keep the rodent population down, as well as deter other stray cats from moving in.

Barn Buddy's temperaments range from feral to semi-feral or friendly. Our staff members are here to guide you through the process of settling the cats into their new environment. Now that the weather is warming up, we can start planning to introduce cats onto properties so they can get used to all the new sounds, smells, and activities.

Peni started out a little shy when she first arrived at OMHS, but she quickly charmed everyone with her adorable face, her sweet meows, and her gentle disposition! Now, she spends her days loved by her forever family in this 🐈‍⬛

"Peni is adjusting great! She loves wires but we redirect her as much as we can with a toy, she’s just a baby still so I know she just wants to play.

Peni was a little timid at first but came out of her shell after not even a day, she loves going upstairs to run around while her cat dad plays games! She will do her sweet meows right before bed and in the morning and pounce on our feet under the sheets. She has started to hop into bed with us almost every night or she will sit on our window to watch the birds.

She especially loves her string toy it’s her new favourite pastime. She’s so energetic and as I like to say a “chatty cat-y”. We love her so much and are so happy to have her now in her furrever home. We honestly got the most perfect girl."

You make all the difference!

The Oakville & Milton Humane Society (OMHS) relies solely on donations to help animals in need like Leo. Leo was found outdoors struggling to survive with his little family. While growing stronger in their foster home, Leo suddenly fell ill and was given IV fluids, antibiotics, and was syringe-fed to help him recover.

Leo has come this far because compassionate supporters like you never gave up on him. Due to a matching offer, your loving gift will be doubled until April 30. Donate now at omhs.ca/spring and help animals in need like Leo 🌻
