Cleo from Cairo is learning to sit and to ring the bell by the side door to go outside. We’re happy to report she has had no accidents in the house. We’re working on ‘down’ as she can be a bit overzealous at times with certain people. She’s great on a leash and eagerly tries to meet all the squirrels in her neighbourhood.

Our dear, sweet Nala is living her best, much-loved life with two acres to run around on, a lake to swim in, and a family that adores her. Along with her 11–year–old Golden brother Ezra, she loves to go on the boat and all we have to do is get her life jacket and she runs to put it on and then runs straight to the boat ~ so cute to watch.…

Teddy and I bonded almost immediately ~ it was a meant-to-be connection. Teddy loves me, his dad, but takes time to warm up to new people. He does settle once he is given time and he’s also not great with other dogs but together, we are Batman and Robin. I have been very active in my life as a gliding...

These two senior citizens are absolutely amazing! Believe it or not, Zoey is 19 and Cali is 13. These two GR superstars were being fostered together by a fabulous couple who really took care of these initially overweight, timid Goldens. They continued getting comfortable with us and they are two happy-go-lucky, loving, confident souls. Zoey is almost completely deaf these...

This Istanbul boy who arrived in Canada was originally named McBarker but his name was changed to Hudson because he was SOOO handsome…just like Rock Hudson. When we drove to Kingston to pick him up, he jumped right into our car and our hearts. He is often referred to Wiggly-Bum-Bum as his hind-end rarely is still when he gets excited....

Our lovely, quiet boy came from the streets of Istanbul.
