Adopting is one of the best things you can do.

When you adopt, you are not just giving a deserving dog a home. You are also reducing the demand for puppy mills and other industrial-scale breeding operations that put profit before animal welfare. Please join us on our journey to write the next chapter in rescue dogs lives.

Meet Our Available Dogs

  • Meet Dolly!

    She is a 2-years 6-months old Bull terrier, Lab mix.

    Your Daily Dose of Joy in Dog Form!

    If you are looking for a dog who can turn an ordinary Tuesday into a full-on celebration, allow us to introduce Dolly, a pretty gal with polka dots, personality and some of the best eyebrows in the business.

    A Walking, Wagging Good Vibe: Dolly did not just show up, she arrived. Ever since she came to us as a stray from a high kill shelter, she has been dazzling volunteers, charming strangers, and melting hearts with her goofy grin and signature head tilt.

    She is equal parts:
    - Playful goofball
    - Low-key diva
    - Champion snuggler

    Basically, she is the whole package with extra sparkle!

    Smart, Snack-Motivated and Proud of It: This girl LOVES to learn, especially if treats are involved.
    - Sit? Easy.
    - Down? Done.
    - Look at you like you are the best human on earth? A natural talent.

    She is house-trained, crate-trained, toy-obsessed and always ready to turn training time into bonding time.

    A Social Butterfly (With Taste): Dolly is fantastic with kids 8+ and loves dog friends that can handle her presence. She is a great mix of let’s go on an adventure and let’s melt into the couch together, the perfect energy for a family wanting fun and cuddles.

    Why Dolly?
    - She makes people laugh.
    - She gives the best kisses.
    - She brings sunshine everywhere she goes.

    Dolly is not just a dog, she is a mood booster, a best friend and a daily reminder that life is meant to be enjoyed.

    She has the charm.
    She has the goofy grin.
    She has SO much love to give.
    All she needs now… is you!

  • Meet Lola!

    She is a 3-years old American Bulldog, Lab, Hound mix.

    The full package: Affectionate, playful and just a little quirky in the most lovable way. Lola came to us from City of Hamilton Animal Services after being found as a stray, and ever since, she has been turning heads and winning hearts with her wiggly tail, gentle eyes and irresistible charm.

    Lola loves people, all people, and gives the kind of hugs that instantly melt stress away. She is also great with cats, which is a rare gem! With other dogs, she is a bit more selective and prefers calm, well-mannered friends. In fact, she is happiest as the one and only pup, soaking up all the attention (and belly rubs) for herself. She has so much love to give and she would love to give it all to you, we cannot say we blame her!

    She walks beautifully on leash most of the time, but we will be honest: Lola can get vocal and overstimulated when she sees other dogs out and about. She is working on it and will thrive with someone who is patient, willing to continue training and understands that she sometimes just needs a little help staying calm. She is already house-trained, crate-trained and knows her basic commands like “sit” and “wait.” Treats? Yes, please! This girl is eager to please and super smart when food is involved.

    Lola would shine in a home that enjoys daily walks, understands the importance of structure and loves winding down together at the end of the day. If you are looking for a snuggly, goofy, loyal companion who will stick by your side and make you laugh daily, Lola just might be your perfect match.
