Story
She is a 1-year-old female Alaskan Malamute—a happy, energetic, and playful pup who brings a lot of joy wherever she goes. She is healthy, with no special medical needs, and has the classic curiosity, friendly nature, and enthusiasm of a young Nordic dog. She can be a bit fearful around young children and strollers, likely because she hasn't had much exposure to them yet, so she would benefit from a patient family or someone willing to help her gently socialize and build confidence. She needs a home with an active family or individual who understands the breed's need for physical exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. A place with space to stretch her legs and someone who can dedicate the time, attention, and love she deserves would be ideal for her.

Vous vous souvenez de moi? Il y a quelques semaines, je suis arrivée à la SPA des Cantons après avoir été retrouvée toute seule, très maigre et avec plein de piquants de porc-épic. Disons que je n’étais pas au meilleur de ma forme! 🥺Mais regardez-moi maintenant! J’ai repris du poids, je vais super bien et on m’a même retiré quelques piquants supplémentaires depuis mon arrivée. On dirait presque que je n’ai jamais été malade! 💪🐶Et vous savez quoi?

He’ll need a patient, gentle, and consistent family to help him build these skills gradually, with time and support.Tyson may be a good fit for a home with children who can respect his signals, provided they’re always supervised by an adult. A home without cats is recommended.

Story
SCHNAUZER MIX AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION River has been a beloved part of the Kiko family since his first adoption in 2018. He came back to our care in late 2021 and has had three adoption attempts since then. Now 9 years young, we are still hopeful that River will finally find his forever home. River has been cared for by fosters Judith and Philippe for a few weeks now, and they have enjoyed working with him. Indeed, after just one day, they already saw plenty to love. They immediately noted that River is incredibly affectionate, curious about everything around him, and was very happy to be part of their household. After the first week, Judith and Philippe reported that River started to settle in more and began to show an interest in playing! They also quickly discovered that River can be a little too enthusiastic with fabric toys, so they've found a great balance by offering him more durable rubber toys instead. Luckily, his love of ripping things apart hasn't translated into destructive behaviour—and despite his enthusiasm, he's very polite during play and gets along very well with the resident Corgi. River was recently treated to a spa day and was a star! Next was a checkup at the vet where he weighed in at 20.6 kg (about 45 pounds), his vaccinations were updated and he got a clean bill of health . Overall, River is a loving, playful, cuddly boy who loves belly rubs. He is food-motivated and responds well to directions, which makes him a great candidate for positive reinforcement training. River is a wonderful companion at home: he is fully potty trained, does not beg and is not destructive. He can be easily overwhelmed at times with the sounds and activity of city life and can be reactive on walks. Either a home in a rural or semi-rural area, or a patient person willing to work with him would suit him best. River would be compatible with a well-mannered dog and would prefer a quiet home without cats and children. It's wonderful to see River starting to relax, discover what he enjoys, and let a little more of his personality shine through. If you’re interested in meeting him, please fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.kikodogrescue.ca or feel free to message us with any questions you may have. We are active in the Greater Montreal and Eastern Ontario areas and are also open to adopters from elsewhere willing to drive to us. Nous sommes bilingues.
