🎃🕸️ Thank you to everyone who joined our Howl-O-Ween Spooktacular at Smiths Falls PetValu! 🕸️🎃
Our event was a hauntingly good time, and thanks to our incredible volunteers, generous donors, and all of YOU, we raised an amazing $885 for our rescue pups! 🐾
Our adoptables had a blast meeting everyone, striking poses for the Fall/Halloween photoshoot, and sniffing around for treats. 🍬
📸 A special shoutout to our volunteers and Pet Valu, Pebblez Media who made the bake sale, raffle, merch booth, BBQ and photos fang-tastically fun! 🧛♂️🧁🌭
From the bottom of our spooky hearts, thank you for your support! 🖤
🎁 PSA: Before you hit "checkout" on Prime Day, hear us out!
Sure, we all love a good deal (who doesn’t?!), but what if you redirected a little of that to help rescue pups in need? 🐾 Every dollar you spend on our friends like Anouk (in the video) could go toward *real* life-saving "prime" moments – like cozy beds, food, or medical care. 🎯
But hey, if you absolutely need to splurge on Prime Days, how about adding something from our wish list to your cart? 😉 It’s like treating yourself and helping us at the same time – win-win, right?
🎁 How to donate:
- Visit our website to make a one-time or monthly donation: rockyroadrescue.com/give
- Send an e-transfer to: [email protected]
- Or if shopping’s your thing, check out our Amazon wish list and send a gift our way! https://www.amazon.ca/hz/wishlist/ls/2JXGQCGFFDJ08?ref_=wl_share&fbclid=IwAR0ksth0tUF5UnQETeMS3Kb35Qhdxs6tflL26J-u76JwK7vPYdKISn_2940
Either way, your support means the world, and the pups will be wagging their tails in thanks! 💖🐕

✨ Toffee, available for adoption! ✨
Hi there, I'm Toffee! 🐾
I’m a brave, adventurous, and inquisitive pup looking for my forever home! I love to play, cuddle, and make new friends. Whether it's a game of fetch, a long walk, or just some belly rubs, I’m always up for fun and adventure.
Here’s a bit about me:
- Breed: Bernese Mountain Dog x Collie mix
- Age: Approximately 3 months
- Size: I’ll most likely be large or extra-large when fully grown
- Energy Level: High
- Good with: Dogs, and with proper management, kids and cats too
- Training: Puppy training classes are highly recommended to help me learn and bond with you. I’m still working on house and crate training, and I do bark occasionally when crated. My leash manners are a work in progress.
- Home: I would love a fenced yard where I can run around and play fetch for hours!
I’m looking for an active individual or family who can give me lots of attention, exercise, and training. I get along well with the dogs and cats I live with, so I’ll fit right in if you already have pets.
If you’re ready for a high-energy pup who will bring joy and adventure into your life, apply today at https://rockyroadrescue.com/adoption-application/
Love,
Toffee 🐶
