Bailey | Female | 3 Years | Ridgeback/Boxer Mix | ~85 lbs | Spayed | Vaccinated | Microchipped | Good with Dogs, Dog-Savvy Cats & Kids

🐾 Meet Bailey — The Big-Hearted Goofball! 🐾

Bailey is a gentle giant with a heart of gold and a serious talent for snuggling. Equal parts couch potato and class clown, she’s happiest curled up beside her people — soaking up love, doling out kisses, and making everyone laugh with her goofy antics.

She gets along well with other dogs (especially those closer to her size) and does great with dog-savvy cats who have their own space. She loves making new friends — sometimes a little too enthusiastically — so she’d thrive in a home with older kids who can handle her big, bouncy love.

Bailey is strong and full of excitement when she spots new friends to greet, so she’s still working on her leash manners. Her “omg hi!!!” energy can look like pulling or lunging — not out of aggression, just pure joy! She’s been improving with training, but she’ll do best in a home where she has space and patience to keep learning.

At home, Bailey is the definition of calm and easygoing. She’s non-destructive, settles beautifully, and is perfectly content to nap the day away while you’re out.

If you’re looking for a big, silly, affectionate companion who’ll fill your life with love, laughter, and warm cuddles — Bailey just might be your girl. 💛

Meet Eggplant — a gentle, soulful girl with a heart as big as her frame. 💜

At 3 years old, this beautiful Lab/Great Dane mix is the perfect blend of sweetness, loyalty, and calm companionship. Once underweight and uncertain, Eggplant has blossomed into a loving, graceful companion who radiates gratitude and joy.

Eggplant is wonderful with children, gets along beautifully with dogs and cats, and has a calm, balanced temperament that makes her easy to love. Whether she’s lounging by your side, splashing in the water, or joining you for a car ride, she takes everything in stride with quiet happiness.

She’s well-mannered, affectionate, and thrives on connection. Her Labrador heart shines through in her loyalty, while her Great Dane side brings that signature gentleness and regal poise. With her medium energy level, she’s just as content playing in the yard as she is cuddling up at home.

Eggplant is healthy, heartworm negative, spayed, and ready to find her forever family — one that will give her the same love and comfort she so freely gives.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion to fill your home with peace and warmth, Eggplant is your girl. 🌿

🚨 EMERGENCY FOSTER NEEDED 🚨
📍 Bow Tie (aka “Bow”) is currently in Smiths Falls
We’re urgently seeking a foster — ideally someone who can drive part or all of the way to pick him up!

🐾 Bow Tie (“Bow”) | Male | 1 Year | Labrador Retriever | 73 lbs | Neutered | Vaccinated | Microchipped | Good with Dogs, Dog-Savvy Cats & Older Kids (8+)

Meet Bow Tie, a big-hearted goofball with endless love (and energy!) to give. This 1-year-old Lab is the ultimate adventure buddy — he’s happiest when he’s out jogging, hiking, or playing in the yard, but he’s just as eager to soak up affection from his people when it’s time to wind down.

Bow loves people, adores dogs, and does well with confident, dog-savvy cats. Like any young Lab, he’s still learning his leash manners — he can be a strong puller at first, but with consistency and structure, he settles nicely into a rhythm.

He would thrive in a foster home that enjoys being active and has the time to keep up with his playful personality. Bow is sweet, goofy, and loyal — a total lovebug who just wants to belong.

💛 We need a foster ASAP to keep him safe and cared for.
If you can open your home (even temporarily!) to this amazing boy, please reach out today.

Meet Milo, a handsome young Lab and English Pointer mix who’s equal parts heart, smarts, and sunshine. ☀️

At just 10 months old, Milo is already showing what a wonderful companion he’ll be — loyal, playful, and endlessly affectionate. He loves being part of the action and is happiest when he’s spending time with his people, whether that’s out for a walk, exploring the yard, or relaxing together at home.

Milo gets along beautifully with dogs, cats, and kids, making him an easy addition to just about any home. He’s learning his leash manners and responds quickly to positive reinforcement — a little patience and praise go a long way with this bright boy.

Like many dogs, Milo prefers a bit of space during mealtime, so he enjoys eating separately from other pets — a simple routine that keeps everyone happy.

Milo is affectionate, eager to please, and full of joyful energy. He loves adventures but also knows how to slow down and soak up the cuddles. With his big heart and loyal nature, he’s ready to become someone’s best friend for life. 💛

Dolly | Female | 6–8 Months | Australian Kelpie / Carolina Dog Mix | 23 lbs | Spayed | Vaccinated | Microchipped | Good with Dogs, Cats & Kids

Meet Dolly, a bright, goofy, and endlessly loving young girl who’s as sweet as her name! 🌸

This 6–8-month-old Australian Kelpie and Carolina Dog mix is the total package — smart, affectionate, and full of life. Dolly adores everyone she meets and gets along beautifully with kids, other dogs, and even cats (she’s very respectful and gives them their space!).

She’s a quick learner and eager to please, picking up manners, tricks, and routines with ease. Her foster affectionately calls her “Noodle” because of her silly, wiggly personality — she’s always ready for fun but just as happy to curl up for a cozy nap afterward.

Dolly loves toys, squeakers, and playing fetch (she even taught herself!). She enjoys walks, car rides, and spending time with her people — she’s a loyal little shadow who wants to be part of everything you do. Confident and well-adjusted, she’s not fazed by household sounds, cars, or new experiences — though she did have a few words for a noisy gaggle of geese once! 🦆

With her gentle heart, playful spirit, and “let’s do life together” attitude, Dolly will make a wonderful companion for just about any home. She’s ready to bring laughter, love, and light wherever she goes. 💛

Missy | Female | 3 Years |Shepherd Mixed Breed | 60 lbs | Spayed | Vaccinated | Microchipped | Good with Dogs, Dog-Savvy Cats & Kids

Meet Missy — the total package! 🐾 Smart, affectionate, and delightfully goofy, this 3-year-old beauty is as loving as she is loyal.

Missy has perfected the art of the doggy hug (yes, real hugs!) and will happily lean in to show you how much she adores you. She’s a social butterfly who gets along beautifully with dogs, loves kids, and does well with dog-savvy cats.

With her medium energy level, Missy enjoys walks, games of fetch, and hanging out in the yard, where she takes her “neighbourhood squirrel patrol” duties very seriously. She knows some basic commands and is eager to please, making her both fun and easy to train.

Missy is gentle and easy to redirect on leash, snoozes through the night in her crate, and travels like a pro in the car. She’s housetrained, loves her plushie toys, and occasionally hides them for safekeeping (a girl’s gotta protect her treasures!).

Her foster describes her best: “She’s great with other dogs, adores kids, and is always part of the action — from family adventures to couch cuddles.”

If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who’ll bring warmth, fun, and endless affection to your life, Missy is your girl. 💛
