🐾 Meet Markey – The Sweetest Little Pup! 🐾

Say hello to our newest arrival at Just Paws – Markey, the cutest, sweetest, and friendliest bichon/poodle mix you could ever meet! 💕

Markey is 4.5 months old (born April 29), weighs 13 lbs, and is already winning hearts everywhere he goes. He was recently surrendered after his previous family realized that puppies require more work than expected. Thankfully, this happy boy is thriving in his foster home. He’s been given a clean bill of health by our vet, is fully up to date on vaccinations, and is microchipped. The vet staff adored him, and Markey greeted everyone with wiggles, kisses, and joy!

Markey is very much a puppy – full of energy, curiosity, and playfulness – but he also has a snuggly side. He loves cuddling up next to his foster dad with his favourite yak chew. He gets along wonderfully with the three resident foster dogs, enjoying backyard zoomies, wrestling, and plenty of puppy playtime. Markey is a social butterfly, greeting every person he meets with enthusiasm. He would do well with dog-savvy children, especially those who enjoy playing with an active puppy. Like all pups, he can nip, but with gentle guidance and positive reinforcement, he’s easily redirected to his toys. Markey will require grooming a few times per year.

His leash skills are improving, and he especially enjoys walks alongside another dog. Puppy training classes will be a great next step for him – not only to help him grow into a well-mannered adult but also as a wonderful bonding experience for his new family. Markey’s house training is coming along but will need continued consistency.

At night, Markey is a great sleeper, happily curling up close to his humans. He is not crate-trained at this time.

For Markey, we are looking for an active family with a secure, fenced-in yard where he can run and play to his heart’s content. Condo living won’t be suitable, as he does bark. Another playful dog in the home would be a bonus, as long as the resident pup is happy to have a puppy sibling. Markey’s new family will need have him neutered after 6 months after consultation with their vet on the timing.

🐶 Fostered in: Ajax

✨ If you’re ready to welcome this special little guy into your life, don’t wait – submit an application for Markey today. You won’t be disappointed – he’s pure joy wrapped in fur!

ROO is a 3-year-old, 14 lb Pomeranian (though he’s really about 70% fluff, 20% sass, and 10% teddy-bear ears ). Roo is being fostered in Waterloo.

This little guy loves the outdoors—he gets so excited when the leash and harness come out! Short walks are perfect for him since he can get overheated, but a couple a day keep him happy since he loves being outside. He’s a friendly fellow who enjoys meeting other dogs on walks, though at home he’s still learning to share treats, toys, and food.
Roo is all about attention and affection. He’ll happily demand pets (and isn’t subtle about it!). Roo will need grooming to keep his floof looking adorable.

Roo also LOVES toys—especially anything squeaky or his current favorite, a chirping owl that he proudly carries around. His treat motivation makes him a great candidate for training.

Roo is not a fan of the crate, but he’s perfectly content snoozing on his own outside of it.

Like most Poms, Roo has his own opinions—he’ll let you know when he’s done with brushing or too much fussing. As a result of his Pom personality, his house should have no young children living there. If there is another dog, they should be willing to give him space when he needs it. We don’t know how he is with cats.

With his mix of charm, sass, and fluff, Roo is the full Pom package waiting for his forever family. Apply today!

🐾 Meet Bailey – Your Tiny Future BFF!
Fostered in Thornhill , Ontario

Bailey is an 18-month-old, 11-pound Chihuahua mix who made the big journey all the way from Mexico in search of a forever home—and she brings all the classic Chi charm with her!

She’s smart, spunky, and knows exactly what she likes. While she might be a little shy when meeting new people, all she needs is a bit of time (and a little space) to feel safe.

Once she warms up, get ready for the sweetest little shadow you’ve ever met—especially if your lap is open for cuddles.

Bailey may be small, but she’s full of love and loyalty—and she’s ready to give it all to her perfect person. Could that be you?

Our pint-sized sidekick, CATHY, is still looking for her forever home. Cathy is a with a big heart? Say hello to Cathy—a 1.5-year-old terrier mix (16 lbs) currently being fostered in Thornhill.

Cathy has a nose for adventure—literally. Walks are her chance to sniff every blade of grass, and at home she’ll happily “inspect” every corner (and maybe discover where you hid the treats). When she’s not on detective duty, you’ll find her curled up in the coziest chair she can claim.

She’s house trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and greets people with endless enthusiasm. Cathy’s independent enough to do her own thing, but sweet enough to follow you from room to room just to keep you company.

What’s she looking for? A family who loves snuggles, belly rubs, and a curious little companion who will happily be your walking buddy, couch partner, and loyal best friend.

Milo update! Our little wonder, Milo, is still looking for his forever family — and he’s as sweet as ever! Milo is 6 years old, about 10 lbs, and full of love. Milo is fostered in Toronto. His missing eye doesn’t slow him down one bit — he’s brave, happy, and always ready to trot by your side or curl up in your lap.
Milo is wonderful with people (kids included!), gets along with other dogs, has been cat tested, and is both crate trained and a total pro on leash walks. Basically, he’s the full package.
And of course… we can’t forget his favorite stuffed animal. Milo takes his little buddy everywhere and snuggles up with it every night — it’s the sweetest thing you’ll ever see.
Could Milo (and his beloved plush sidekick) be the perfect duo for your home? Apply today!

Remember ISSIE, the little terrier mix who’s basically your own personal hype man? He’s still here in Toronto, waiting to cheer on his forever family! At 1.5 years old and 23 lbs, Issie is all about the wiggles, wags, and making his humans feel like the most important people in the world.

On top of being your #1 fan, Issie comes with some pretty great perks: he’s potty trained, walks beautifully on leash, and sleeps soundly through the night. He’s great with kids, adores female dogs (ok with cats), and while he can be selective with male dogs, he’s learning with positive reinforcement and slow introductions. And of course—he’s food-motivated, cuddly, and always ready for pets and attention.

Issie is the perfect mix of fun and love, and he’s ready to hype up his forever family every single day. Could that be you?

Amore now Ava

I am so glad I adopted this lovely girl. Ava is very loving and playful and has made herself completely at home. She has added a lot of happiness and fun to my life and, I hope, I to hers.

Happy ADOPTION DAY MILO!
Thank you to Janice , Michael and Kyla for fostering .

When we lost our senior kitty earlier in the year, the grief hit hard. Seventeen years is a long time to spend with a beloved fury baby, and it took some time before we felt ready to start looking for another furry addition to join our family. Having adopted our older pup, Whiskey, from Just Paws back in 2022, I knew exactly where I wanted to start our search, and we serendipitously stumbled upon Mikey (now Milo)’s profile, certain from the start that he’d be an excellent fit. Milo is curious and playful and quite possibly the friendliest pup I’ve ever met! He excitedly greets every member of our family when he sees them and has swiftly come to adore playing fetch with the kids, pausing only to give licks and cuddles. Having grown accustomed to the slow companionship of our senior cat, 3yo Whiskey is a bit bewildered by Milo’s boundless energy, but he’s patient and curious, and I can tell they’re going to be excellent friends in no time at all. Deciding to invite a pet into your house is something you do with your head, but rescuing a pup who needs a loving home is something you do with your heart. A huge thank you to Just Paws for their careful and experienced matchmaking abilities, and for always putting these fur babies first. Now that Milo is here and settling in, we can’t imagine life without him!

Meet MILO, a 6-year-old, 10 lb chihuahua mix who is as sweet as they come. Milo does have just one eye, but it doesn’t slow him down in the slightest. He’s a happy, brave, and affectionate little guy who’s ready to trot by your side and curl up in your lap.

Milo loves people, is wonderful with kids, gets along with other dogs, and has even been cat tested. Milo walks nicely on a leash, is crate trained, and is always up for a snuggle.

Milo also has a special friend —he carries around his favorite stuffed animal everywhere he goes and insists on sleeping with it every night. It’s his little comfort buddy, and it couldn’t be cuter.

Could Milo (and his stuffed friend) be the perfect match for you? Apply today!

Issie, our 1.5-year-old, 24 lb terrier mix is head over paws for fetch and hoping we can fetch him his perfect forever family! If there's a ball in sight, Issie’s in his happy place—zooming, chasing, and proudly prancing back with his prize. His photo album? Basically a tribute to his ball obsession.
Issie is a cuddle bug who lobs love your way—he adores hugs, kisses, and being your shadow. He’s great with people, kids and female dogs, but not a fan of boy dogs. He’s curious about cats and always up for playtime. Issie is also a good boy in the house -especially when he is getting affection from you!
If you’re ready for a fetch-obsessed, love-loaded pup who’ll bounce into your heart, Issie’s your MVP (Most Valuable Pup). Apply for him today!

Happy ADOPTION Day DONNA!!

Little Donna arrived from Mexico two weeks ago and to my home just five days ago. She is gaining confidence by the day and loves to zoom around the backyard. Her leash walks are progressing well despite her fear of traffic sounds and she’s wonderful when meeting new doggy friends.

She and Moose the cat (also adopted from Just Paws) are slowly but surely getting comfortable with one another and are bound to be snuggling together in the near future!

Donna is a sweet little soul who loves her snuggles and belly rubs. Don’t let those little legs fool you - she can do leaps and bounds with the best of them and has provided lots of laughs with her puppy antics. Thank you, Just Paws, for bringing another wonderful pet into my life 💗
