NAME: Jeannie
AGE: 7 years
BREED: Miniature Poodle

Jeannie is a sweet and sensitive 7-year-old poodle who weighs just 10 pounds. She is affectionately known as “the little lamb” by her foster family.

Jeannie is house and crate trained and enjoys a predictable routine. She’ll need a patient, understanding home that will allow her time to settle in and build trust at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she’ll likely form a strong bond with one special person—her chosen human—and express her affection with joyous full body wiggles.

While shy around new people, Jeannie is gentle and will accept treats if not overwhelmed. On walks, she enjoys taking in the smells of her surroundings and greets other dogs politely when she feels comfortable. She happily walks about 2 km a day and is gaining confidence in her new world.

Jeannie would be an excellent loyal companion for a quiet family that will have patience to allow her full personality to blossom. . She may also do well in a home with a dog companion who can help model confident behavior without being too forward. Her ideal home is calm, predictable, and filled with kindness.

Jeannie is microchipped, up to date on core vaccinations and spayed.

NAME: Patch
AGE: 6 years
BREED: Pomeranian Mix

Introducing Patch, a 6-year old Pomeranian mix. She is the definition of sweetness. Patch loves everyone, including children whom she will observe from a distance at first, and eventually follow everywhere. She enjoys her walks, taking in the sights, sounds and smells of the neighborhood. She will react to sudden noises by stopping but, with encouragement, will resume her walk. Patch also interacts well with other dogs.

Patch sleeps through the night in her crate and has full access to the house during the day since she has no destructive habits. She is house trained, with some supervision. Patch is not a barker but will make sure to let you know when someone as at the door. She would do well with another dog but can also be the only dog in the home.

Patch is looking for a person or a family that likes to take leisurely walks and enjoy quiet times. In return, she will be their most loyal friend.

Patch is microchipped, up to date on core vaccinations and spayed.

NAME: Azriel
AGE: 12 weeks
BREED: Bully Mix

Looking for a peaceful shadow with a heart of gold? Azriel might just be the puppy you’ve been dreaming of. He may not have wings or shadows (yet), but he definitely has the same chill, observant energy—and a soft spot for belly rubs. Azriel is the kind of pup who prefers cozy over chaos. While his littermates may be wrestling or bouncing off walls, you’ll usually find him off to the side, lounging with his favourite toy or melting into your lap for a snuggle. His favourite things? Naps, belly rubs, soft blankets, and your quiet company.

He’s already crate trained, is making great progress on house training, and has a naturally calm energy that makes him a total dream to have around. Azriel does tire quickly (he’s still growing, after all), and he’s perfectly content with short bursts of play followed by long, lazy snoozes.
If you're looking for a laid-back companion with a gentle soul and an irresistibly sleepy face, Azriel might just be your perfect match.

Like any puppy—and this breed in particular—he’ll thrive with consistent boundaries, structure, and leadership to help him thrive. He’s the kind of pup who bonds deeply and loves quietly—but fully.

Soft-spoken, sweet-natured, and secretly a snuggle champion—Azriel is ready to be someone’s shadow and heart.

Azriel is up to date on core vaccinations and is being adopted on a neuter contract.

NAME: Cassian
AGE: 12 weeks
BREED: Bully mix

Meet Cassian! This boy may not be ready to charge into battle just yet—but his gentle soul is already showing the heart of a true hero. Cassian is a sweet, timid pup who’s discovering each day that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. Thanks to his kind heart, food-motivated brain, and the support of loving humans, he’s becoming a little braver every day.

Training comes easily when snacks are involved - just watch your fingers around his puppy piranha teeth. �Cassian is working on his house training and will need more frequent potty breaks and a structured routine until he grasps it completely. �Walks and new experiences can be a bit daunting, but, with gentle encouragement and slow, positive exposure, he is making wonderful progress. Once he feels safe, he transforms into a wiggly, happy boy— his whole body turning into a happy dance, and you’ll see just how affectionate, goofy, and loyal this boy wants to be. He’s type of pup who will form a deep bond with his person—and just like his namesake, will always be by your side, no matter what.

Cassian will do best in a calm, nurturing home that’s ready to continue his socialization journey with patience, positivity, and lots of love. As with his breed he will of course need consistent boundaries, structure and leadership to help him thrive.

If you believe the best things in life are worth earning, Cassian is ready to show you just how rewarding that bond can be.

Cassian is microchipped, up to date on core vaccinations and is being adopted on a neuter contract.
