We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Pet Valu (Truro, NS) for their incredible generosity this December and January. Thanks to their support, they donated an amazing $3,546 worth of food, treats, and toys to help support our dogs in care.

This generous donation goes a long way in keeping our pups happy, healthy, and well cared for while they wait for their forever homes. Community partners like Pet Valu Truro truly make a difference, and we are so grateful for their continued kindness and support. 💛🐶

Update on Lobo & Marshall 💛

After carefully reviewing the applications received, we did not find a home that was the right fit for what Lobo and Marshall need to thrive long-term.

Choosing the best match for each dog is something we take very seriously, and our decisions are always based on their individual needs and well-being.

Both Lobo and Marshall will be reposted and will remain posted until their perfect match is found.

Thank you to all who applied and supported them. While your application wasn’t a match for their specific needs, we’re grateful for your interest and encourage you to keep an eye on our page for other dogs who may be a better fit for your home.

Rocco is still waiting for a family to call his own.

This boy is a fun, loving, energetic pup who wants nothing more than to be someone’s loyal companion. He loves walks, hikes, exploring new scents, and playing with squeaky toys. After a day of adventure, he turns into a total snugglebug who enjoys curling up close to his people.

Rocco is silly, sensitive, affectionate, and deeply devoted once he bonds with you, he just wants to be loved and included.

⭐ Important: Rocco has separation anxiety and needs a home where someone is around most of the time.

Rocco’s Ideal Home:

Someone home most of the time - this is essential for him
Active lifestyle - he loves movement, adventures, and mental stimulation
Kid-friendly - he grew up with children and does well with respectful kids
Can live with another dog - must be an older, small/medium sized, calm, low-energy dog
No small animals - his prey drive is high
Strong handler - he can pull hard on leash when excited

Rocco is fully housetrained, eager to learn, and has so much love to give. He’s looking for a patient, understanding adopter who can offer structure, companionship, and a safe place to decompress. In return, he’ll be your devoted best friend with a heart full of love.

Meet Ace! (also answers to AC/DC 🎸)

Ace is a loving, playful, cuddly senior gentleman who is ready to trade in the busy life for a calm, cozy retirement filled with brushing, cuddles, and quiet companionship. He has a gentle soul, a polite nature, and a deep appreciation for the simple pleasures in life. Especially food, affection, and his favourite squeaky toys.

Ace is well-mannered, mostly house-trained, and knows his basics. He may benefit from learning a solid “leave it,” but overall he’s a respectful, easygoing boy who settles nicely into routine.

Here’s what Ace is looking for in his forever home:

🧡 Calm, quiet environment – Ace truly deserves a peaceful place to relax and be doted on in his golden years.
🧡 Only dog preferred – He isn’t a fan of larger dogs and does best as the sole pet, though he can tolerate smaller dogs.
🧡 Someone home most of the time – He does best with regular companionship. When left alone for short bits, he whines briefly but settles with calming music and rest.
🧡 Gentle handling & grooming awareness – Ace LOVES being brushed and will happily come running for it, but he does not tolerate clippers near his head and needs a patient, experienced approach for grooming.
🧡 Low to moderate activity – Daily walks and gentle play are perfect for him. Ace is an older boy who has so much love left to give.

He’s looking for a soft place to land, a home where he can be cherished, brushed daily, and reminded how special he is. If you’re ready to give a deserving senior the retirement he’s earned, Ace would love to meet you.

Meet Duke! Duke is an energetic, lovable, goofy boy with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. He’s smart, affectionate, and full of enthusiasm. An “excited, lovable turd” in the very best way.

Once Duke feels comfortable, his true personality shines: playful, loyal, and always ready for his next adventure. Duke enjoys structure and routine and does best when clear rules are set and consistently followed.

He’s very food motivated (especially when it comes to treats and human food), but he has been trained to receive food in specific ways to help him stay focused and calm. Continuing this structure will be important in his forever home.

Here’s what Duke is looking for in a forever family:

Experienced owners – Duke needs confident leadership, consistency, and routines. He is smart and eager to please when expectations are clear.

Active lifestyle – He needs daily exercise, ideally longer leash walks at least twice a day, and would love a fenced yard to run, play fetch, and burn off energy.

Dog companionship – Duke would do well with another energetic, playful dog who can match his enthusiasm.

Calm introductions – He meets new adults well when given space and time to approach on his own terms.

No small children – He is not a good fit for homes with young kids but may be okay with respectful teenagers.

Structure at home – He settles well when left alone (up to about 4 hours), does not destroy items, and patiently waits for his people to return.

Duke is a loyal, goofy, affectionate companion who will thrive in the right home, one that embraces his energy, provides structure, and includes him as part of the family.

With the right guidance and plenty of activity, Duke will be an incredible lifelong friend.

2025 was a year of resilience, second chances, and so much heart 🐾💛

From dogs who arrived scared and unsure, to pups heading off to loving homes, every single step this year was made possible because of our community.

This recap is a snapshot of the lives changed, the challenges faced, and the victories (big and small) that we shared together. Thank you to our fosters, adopters, donors, volunteers, and supporters for standing by our dogs every step of the way.

Here’s to the dogs we helped, the lessons we learned, and the hope we carry into the year ahead. 🐶✨

✨ Meet Lobo! ✨

(also known as Bobo 💛)

Lobo is a sweet, silly, smart little guy with a playful personality and a whole lot of love to give. He’s a sensitive dog who bonds deeply with “his person” and becomes a loyal shadow once he trusts you. While he may be shy or nervous at first, especially with men or strangers, patience and gentle confidence help him open up. And once he does, he’s affectionate, snuggly, and full of adorable charm.

Lobo is eager to please, learns quickly, and thrives in a calm home with people who understand Dachshunds and how to help build confidence in a timid dog.

What Lobo Needs in His Forever Home:

✨ A calm, understanding household – Lobo warms up slowly and needs adopters who will give him time and space to settle.

✨ Someone home often – He becomes anxious when left completely alone. With another dog, he settles better, but being alone for full workdays would be too much for him.

✨ Another friendly, small dog – He takes cues from other dogs and relaxes noticeably when he has a canine companion.

✨ Slow introductions – Especially with men; he may growl or retreat until he feels safe.

✨ Respectful children – He loves kids but can mouth when excited, so older children are best.

✨ A family familiar with Dachshunds – His confidence will grow with structure, patience, and breed-savvy care.

✨ Not an apartment dog – Lobo likes to be vocal when he plays.

Lobo is a sweet, extraordinary little dog with a big heart and endless love to give. With time, patience, and the right home, he will blossom into a devoted, joyful, affectionate best friend. If you’re looking for a sensitive boy who will adore you once you’ve earned his trust, Lobo might be your perfect match. 💛

Due to his nervousness, Lobo will only be available to meet individuals who align with his needs for a home. There will not be a public meet-and-greet event.

✨ Meet Marshall! ✨

Marshall is a sweet, gentle little guy with a loving heart and a soft, sensitive nature. He’s still learning to be confident in the world, but with the right home, he will blossom into a devoted companion who adores his people. Once he trusts you, he loves attention, belly rubs, and will gently paw at you to ask for more affection.

Here’s what Marshall needs to thrive:

💛 Quiet Home – Marshall is nervous in new situations and with new people. A calm, low-traffic home will help him feel safe.
💛 Another Dog – He takes comfort from the two small dogs in his foster home and would do best with another quiet, friendly dog to show him the ropes.
💛 Other Pets – He ignores the foster’s two cats, making him an easy fit for a home with respectful felines.
💛 Kids – He has not been tested with children, so an adult-only home or one with older, calm kids is recommended.
💛 Training – Marshall knows 'stay' and 'come' and is working on housetraining. He’s eager to please, food-motivated, and responds well to soft guidance.
💛 Alone Time – He settles well when left alone and has been fine for up to 4 hours, where he relaxes and naps.
💛 Activity – He loves squeaky toys, treats, and being close to his person.
💛 Requirements– Marshall does not enjoy walks, he is terrified of walking on leashes and will need a fenced in yard.

Marshall will also require a couple weeks to decompress. He will be sad the first few days and he will cry.

Marshall is an affectionate pup who just wants love, safety, and someone to believe in him. With patience and reassurance, he will reward his family with loyalty, sweetness, and endless cuddles.

Due to his nervousness, Marshall will only be available to meet individuals who align with his needs for a home. There will not be a public meet-and-greet event.
