Sun chaser Lassie has been settling in and loving her new foster home.

Who has a pet who knows all the best spots for naps in their home?

Share your sun chasers in the comments with us!

*Lassie has just arrived into our care and is not yet available for adoption. We need time to get to know her and have her fully vetted before she will be available for adoption. If you have fallen in love with her, please make sure you are following our social media pages and checking our website regularly to avoid disappointment.

SCAM ALERT

We wanted to share a scam with our followers and rescue community that we have seen a 'rescue' commenting on our followers comments on our posts.

Please be very careful - there are (sadly) scams involving dog rescue - claiming to be a "non profit". We have blocked them but we encourage you to also be cautious. They sometimes steal photos and videos of dogs from rescues and present them as their own.

07/09/2024

Well it's official, the sporty shoe crew has stolen our hearts. They are having an absolute blast and scream into every situation with zest.

We know they are going to grow fast - we are getting them vetted and up to date as well as exposing them to life down south.

If you are interested in adding a puppy to your family, please keep an eye on our website and social media pages (turn on notifications!) so you do not miss the announcements.

524 + 855 = 1379.

That’s how many times Penny has been shared in the last 30 days.

From over 1300 shares, thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dog loving people saw Penny across their social media feeds.

Now we know Penny might not be a tiny cute puppy, we know she isn’t a designer breed & we know she is working on her leash reactivity towards other dogs…

But the math ain’t mathing.

Not one single dog lover saw her and applied.

No one. Penny isn’t a stranger to going viral. She went viral along with some other dogs last December.

She isn’t perfect but she is a wonderful dog. She is a great companion.

We know someone is out there.

Sweet like chocolate, the adorable Yodi is now available for adoption! We couldn’t wait to share this guy - Yodi is such a special puppy.

This sweet & resilient 5 month old puppy is ready to find his forever home after coming into our care from a remote, Northern Ontario community.

Yodi is a mixed breed puppy (we could only guess on his mix!) who arrived into our care not feeling well. We were able to get Yodi help quickly and he battled Parvovirus. Yodi showed us how resilient he was and he came back strong and healthy with the help of our amazing veterinary partner.

What can we tell you about Yodi?

He is an affectionate, athletic and playful pup. He has grown so much in our care.

🐾Breed: mixed (we have no clues!)
🐾Age: 5 months
🐾Neutered
🐾House and crate trained
🐾Learning leash skills
🐾Loves exploring - great in the car
🐾Quick learner, smart pup - knows sit, come, down and paw
🐾Great with other dogs
🐾Travels well in the car
🐾Loves to snuggle
🐾Comes fully vetted
🐾Met older kids and was great
🐾Not cat tested
🐾Friendly with people, loves meeting new people

Now is your chance to apply for Yodi! If you're interested in adopting Yodi, be sure to read his adoption profile on our website; www.preciouspawsrescue.ca

If, after reading, you think he could be just the right match for your family, submit an adoption application on our website! Can't adopt but want to help? Share this post to spread the word for Yodi! 🥰 We know he is going to make a family super happy. Apply ASAP to avoid disappointment.

06/09/2024

Is Yodi kid tested?

Well he got to spend the day with dog savvy, older kids and loved it. To say that Yodi got to have a blast with his respite family, is an under statement. He had so much fun - walks - romps in the yard.

We do our best to people, dog and cat test our foster dogs when we can.

06/09/2024

We don't always get to see dogs while they are on route to us, but there is something special about that moment when they meet their foster parents or a member of our team right before they reach their destination.

We would say Bishoo was thrilled to meet her foster parents when she arrived in Simcoe County. A special moment caught.

Who has been craving a Marshmallow update? We recently got a wonderful update from his family and just HAVE to share it.

This is what Marshmallow's family shared with us:

"It feels like Marshmallow has been our boy for years and not just weeks! He amazes us, and all who meet him, that he's only 5 months old - he continues to be a cool, calm bean and is an excellent listener. We're working on more commands which he seems to be picking up very quickly - a very smart boy! He's still a bit shy around other dogs but he is getting more confident in his meet n' greets thanks to the great puppy-neighbours we have. We've been exploring new trails to introduce him to new surroundings and he's been on his first trip to cottage! Marshmallow continues to be a sweet and snuggly boy who enjoys his naps alongside one of us on the couch. He's also got a hilariously goofy side and we're loving exploring what toys peak his curiosity! We feel so lucky that he's ours."

AWWW that just makes us 😭 so happy! We love seeing Marshmallow thrive! Share some love for Marshmallow!!

05/09/2024

Puppies aren't for everyone! We shared our 3 lovely new puppies but when you know, you know - puppies are a lot of work.

Enter LASSIE. Please share a warm, Precious Paws welcome to Lassie, a 4 year old Cocker Spaniel. We are thrilled to have Lassie safely into our care as she was released from a puppy mill.

We can't wait to see Lassie blossom.

Please share some love for Lassie.

05/09/2024

When puppies won't stop moving, our fosters have to take pictures of them sleeping! Tessa and Lexie LOVE their secure, outdoor pen - it's perfect for naps on a hot day.

05/09/2024

Alumni Brandy popping in to share an adoption update! We are so thrilled to share that we got an update from Brandy's mom.

This is what she shared:

"Brandy is a little gem. She settled in perfectly to our household, giving and getting respect from our other senior dog and 4 cats. She is a shadow dog, always by our side. Her favourite things are to ask for pets by raising her little paw high in the air, going for car rides, and sleeping in the bed. She likes to watch the chickens from the porch and then return to her pink bed for a nap. Breakfast and dinner can never come soon enough and she runs right to her eating spot when it’s time for a meal! We tell her she’s a good girl so many times in a day and that gets her tail going so hard!"

Sounds to us like Brandy has found a wonderful home and is in great company! We love seeing our Precious Paws alumni living life to its fullest!

05/09/2024

And our last new puppy intake to introduce to you that arrived yesterday - Ember!

Is it just us or do we have a LOT of puppies at the moment? A warm welcome to puppy Ember to the Precious Paws rescue community.

We are so excited to have Ember in our care and get to know her. Ember was a shy girl to start but was great at meeting her furry siblings. This lovely puppy comes to us from a remote Northern Ontario community and we do not know her breed (we could only guess). Many dogs from up north are a wonderful fix of Shepherd and Husky.

Share some love for Ember! As with all our new intakes, Ember is not available for adoption yet while we get to know her and have her vetted. If you are interested in one of our dogs or puppies, please check our website regularly as well as our social media pages.

05/09/2024

Second new puppy of the day... LADY

Lady was a brave girl meeting her big foster siblings at her foster home! Lady is one of our newest arrivals - please giver her a warm welcome to the Precious Paws rescue community.

Lady is a Chihuahua (if you couldn't tell 😂). We can't wait to learn more about her and see her grow.

***New intake Lady is not available for adoption yet as we do not post dogs until we get to know them and can have them fully vetted. If you are interested in a dog, we suggest you ensure you check our website regularly and are following our social media pages.

05/09/2024

It has been a BUSY day with not one, not two, but THREE new puppies arriving into the care of Precious Paws.

First up, puppy Rory! A warm welcome to this little northern girl who has proven to be super sweet and settling in with her foster family.

We can't wait to get to know her better!

Share some love for Rory 😍

*Rory is not available for adoption yet as we do not post dogs until we get to know them and can have them fully vetted. If you are interested in a dog, we suggest you ensure you check our website regularly and are following our social media pages.

🛁🫧The sporty shoe crew got a 🛁🫧 bath

Considering all things, it went well. But you need to scroll to the end to see how it ended 😂

You may have noticed, we have a lot of puppies right now - and we are getting constant requests to take in more. If you are considering adding a puppy to your family, please consider adopting from Precious Paws! We have so many wonderful puppies in our care right now. If you follow our page, you also know our puppies get the very best care and love while they are with us. Just take a few moments to read our adoption update posts.

04/09/2024

The other day, we shared the news that Duke was adopted and today we are sharing an update from his family 😍

"Duke is doing amazing. He’s been the perfect house guest - It feels like he’s been with us way longer than three days. He and Mika have bonded well and they love to wrestle and chase - they play so similarly. Love watching them. Moose is our old guy and Duke is quickly learning to respect his space. And while he is curious about Scotty Cat, it is in a playful way so far all interactions have been friendly. Duke is an easy-going goofy and playful pup."

We are thrilled for Duke and know his new family are watching him closely to ensure he grows into a balanced pup!

Share some love for Duke and his family! We love hearing from our Precious Paws families/alumni. If that's you, please reach out and send us an update and a photo or two!

03/09/2024

Can you foster if you already a dog?

Why yes, yes you can. In fact, alumni Joy here to show you that having a balanced, wonderful dog in the home can actually make your life easier! Joy's owner shared that Joy is in fact, her secret weapon for making fostering puppies easy peasy. Joy loves looking after the puppies and keeping them in line.

We love seeing our foster puppies and dogs have a wonderful role model. A guide. A temporary parent to show them the ropes.

To learn more about our foster program, head to our website. We are located in the Simcoe County area and although we do consider fosters outside of our area, it is best to be geographically close to our dogs can get to and from their veterinary appointments.

Kinley, now Kinsey (Kins for short!) update! Can we stop for a minute to admire her lightening bolt? This picture shoes it off perfectly!

We wanted to share an update on how Kinsey is doing her new home with her forever parents.

From her parents:

"Things are going amazing and Kinsey is settling right in. Jazzy (our senior dog) has welcomed her as a sibling and they are starting to play and hang out more. Our cat Hermione has also accepted Kins into the family. Kinsey and Jazzy get 3 walks on the waterfront trail every day. They have learned how to walk together and we are able to do this with only one human now if others aren’t around."

We love to hear it - we also heard that Kins is continuing to adapt to new and loud noises like skateboards and bikes - this was something she was working on in her foster home as well and we are so happy to hear her family is working on her confidence and ability to handle noises. Having a furry sibling will help!

Let's share some love for alumni Kinsey!

03/09/2024

It’s a big day for many today including foster Dottie. Today she is heading to the vet to be spayed & have her cherry eye corrected.

Please send Dottie some love today. She’s a brave girl and looking so calm and confident. We are excited for this girl to be almost ready to start her next chapter after getting all of her medical needs taken care of in our care - dental, cherry eye and being spayed.

Drum roll please 🥁 Heyoka is now available for adoption 🎉

He is a medium sized bundle of joy and energy! Typical of his mix.

Bishoo arrived into our care safely during a dramatic lightning storm in the middle of the night after a long journey from the remote First Nations community of Attawapiskat.

This sweet and gentle girl literally jumped into the arms of her foster arms upon arrival. We can't wait to get to know Bishoo better but early reports are that she is super loving and can't get enough pets.

A warm welcome to Bishoo to the Precious Paws family. A special thank you to everyone who helped ensure Bishoo arrived into our care.

Earlier this week we shared Cinnamon's story.

Cinnamon was a loved, owned dog whose owner wanted help having her spayed and rehoming her puppies to wonderful, safe families.

We were able to help Cinnamon and her parent by using our Loved at Home fund. This special fund allows us to provide support during difficult times, unexpected emergencies etc. This fund allows us to step in and cover medical costs in an effort to keep pets with the families that love them. This also helps to alleviate pressure on shelters and rescues that are already strapped for space.

To learn more about how you can help support our work and the Loved at Home fund, head to our website: https://www.preciouspawsrescue.ca/loved-at-home/

Donations are eligible for a tax deduction as we are a registered charity. Thank you for your on-going support.

Another day, another adoption announcement. We are thrilled to share that Duke has found his forever home and family!

This was is a wee bit late - like you, we are enjoying these last few days of summer but we didn't want you to miss the wonderful news.

What a lucky puppy to join a home with some furry friends to help him grow into a wonderful adult dog. We can't wait to see Duke flourish.

Let's share some love for Duke and the news.

31/08/2024

🎉 We are thrilled to share that Raya, now Daisy has joined her forever home! Last weekend Daisy joined Precious Paws alumni Duke! 🎉

Duke and Daisy look like they will be the perfect pair. We love seeing the Precious Paws family grow their families with more wonderful dogs from our rescue (hint hint). We are so thankful for the on-going love and support our past adopters and supporters offer to our rescue.

Let's share some love for Daisy as she begins her next chapter with her family and brother Duke.

30/08/2024

In case you missed it, we welcomed 2 adorable puppies into our care this past week - a loving warm welcome to Summer & Doug!

Yesterday we shared that we assisted a community member with getting their beloved dog spayed - set up with supplies and flea and tick medication. The beautiful mom had two puppies that we have taken into our care - Summer (golden coloured, looks like her mom!) and Doug (black puppy). The second photo is Summer with her foster furry mom Joy (PPR alumni!).

We are getting to know these cutie puppies and can't wait to help them find wonderful homes. We are so thankful to their human mom for trusting us not only with their mom but them as well.

A warm welcome to Summer and Doug.

29/08/2024

We love sharing adoptions news - happy trails to our Kinley girl, now Kinsey!

Kinsey joined her new family over the weekend and we couldn't be happier for her. Certainly, there is lots of love and cuddles in her future based on these pictures!

A real WOW transformation for our adoptable Murphy! We are so proud of Murphy for bravely heading to @ruffhaus and getting groomed today! Now we can see handsome Murphy better. This cutie has had little or no adoption interest 😱 An adult miniature Poodle, Murphy is the perfect addition to a home with cats or dogs, or both! At 6 years old, you don’t have to worry about any of those puppy problems. He is a real companion dog, ready to be your new bestie and shower you in love. We would love to see Murphy start his next chapter - to continue his growth and learning about the world. If you are interested in Murphy, please head to our website, click “adoptable dogs” and if he is still available, his profile will be listed there. Murphy is being fostered in Simcoe Country, Ontario Canada. We accept out of area applications but you must come and meet the dog once approved to ensure it’s a good match for both. This video really shows his grooming transformation!

Fosters Kinley and Yodi have figured out how to play - they weren't so sure and had to adjust each of their play styles to get along. We love seeing their playful wrestling. These dogs are not available yet as they are still receiving care. You may rememeber, Yodi was our little northern pup that survived Parvo. He is doing really well and clearly feeling like himself while we continue to monitor him.

We did this before for another adoptable dog, so now we gotta do it for adoptable puppy Jungle. Jungle in emojis ❤️ What do you think? Did we nail his personality!? To learn more about Jungle, head to our website. Jungle is being fostered in Simcoe County, Ontario Canada. #adoptme #adoptable #huskymix #adoptablepuppy #puppylove

Foster Kinley has her own unique little Zoomies session each night 😂 Kinley is gaining confidence each day and we love to see her playing in the yard #fosterdog #fosterpuppy #ontario

Thank you to @petsmartcanada @orilliapetsmart3218 for having us last night! Adoptable Jungle and Marshmallow had a blast. Sesame & Mavis (fosters who aren’t quite ready yet) also stopped by to say “hello”. We love giving folks a chance to meet our amazing adoptables and get to know more about the work we do. Thank you to the Orillia PetSmart for hosting us and for the amazing volunteers to brought dogs to meet. And if you fell in love, make sure you complete an application 👩‍💻 #adoptme #adoptionevent #orillia #ontariodogs #doglovers

How is Oreo with other dogs?!? 🐕🦮🐩🐕‍🦺 He loved everyone he meets - big & small! That said, being 6 months old, he is working on his manners. Typical for the age though. Bonus - Oreo was interested in the chickens he met 🐓 calm - interested but not chasing them. Keep the Oreo questions coming ❓ #preciouspaws #barrie #ontario #ontariodog #adoptme #adoptabledogs

Handsome yes ✔️ A silly puppy as well? Yes✔️ Loving all that an Ontario summer has to offer ☀️ Keep sharing Oreo - we are positive the right person is just around the corner - social media is so strong and we know we have a fierce dog loving community behind Oreo and us 🐾 #cutedogs #summerdogs #adoptme #doglovers

Oreo questions! We love it! 6-months & new to our rescue, Oreo is not quite housetrained yet but we do have the best foster families in the world. Oreo is making progress with his housetraining. We know whoever gets him will be so lucky to get this sweet dog. We are pleased to say he is crate trained. #adoptable #adoptme #ontario #ontariodogs

😱 We have a garden gremlin among us 😱 This is some very specific Koogee fan video but Koogee is on a staycation & has discovered the joys of a summer garden. Koogee is one of our number of adoptables right now at Precious Paws 🐾 Learn more about Koogee on our website ❤️ #cutedogs #ontariodogs #adoptme #adoptable #doglovers #funnydogs

Sesame is having fun meeting new friends while in foster care. #fosterdog #fosteringsaveslives #ontario #ontariodogs #ontariodogrescue #dogrescue

We can rest easier tonight knowing Yodi has been discharged. Parvo is extremely scary and we think there is a reason Yodi came into our rescue just in time to get the critical care he needed to recover. Any bit helps and we appreciate all your love and support for little Yodi 🐾 #thisisdogrescue #ontariodogs #fosterpuppy #rescuedog #rescuework #ontario #puppy

Peewee, Jungle and Marshmallow all are waiting for their people. No applications. These 3 sweet dogs got to try their paws at being “therapy” dogs and passed with flying colours.

54 dogs, 2 days, countless examinations & vaccines. Can we do another 27 today? The clinic is open for our third and final day offering critical veterinary services to the community members of Kashechewan First Nation. A huge thank you to our amazing team who finished yesterday exhausted but hopeful for the future of the dogs of this remote community in Ontario ❤️ Tag a dog lover. Remote communities like Kashechewan need access to mobile vet support. Donate directly to our mobile spay and neuter efforts here: https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/102304

Little rescue. Big heart.

Precious Paws Rescue was founded in December 2006 and is based in Simcoe County, Ontario. We do not operate a shelter facility; all of the dogs that we accept into rescue are fostered with volunteers in this area. Precious Paws was officially incorporated as a non-profit in Ontario in 2010 and registered as a charity in 2019. We are a 100% volunteer-run organization.

We receive daily requests for rescue help from animal shelters and also from owners who are no longer able to care for their dogs. Precious Paws accepts all breeds, all sizes and all ages, we are limited only by the foster spaces we have available and by monetary funds. Foster homes, volunteers and donations are always greatly appreciated so be sure to get in touch with us if this interests you!

Precious Paws Rescue ensures that each and every dog we rescue has full veterinary care provided prior to adoption. This includes (but is not limited to) full age-appropriate vaccinations, f***l test and deworming, wellness bloodwork and heartworm test, spay/neuter and microchip. We believe that no dog should be adopted out unaltered (unless there is a medical reason prohibiting this) so we practice pediatric spaying and neutering for all puppies that enter our rescue as well. Often the dogs we rescue require additional veterinary treatments to prepare them for adoption and most dogs that we take in end up costing the rescue much more than the adoption fee recovers. For this reason we host fundraisers and donation drives throughout the year so that we are able to continue being available for the dogs who need us most.
