They call me : Berg
Predicted Breed: Lhaso Apso mix.
Sex: Neutered Male
Approximate Age: 2 year
Weight: 7 Lbs.

Training Needs: He is a smart boy that is food motivated therefore will likely be easy to train. He would benefit from basic training.

Meet this gentle, adaptable sweetheart who's ready to steal your heart! He adores being close to his people—whether it's snuggling on the couch or enjoying a spirited game of fetch. With a perfect balance of energy and calm, he's equally happy playing around or simply relaxing by your side. Super soft and friendly, he's easy to handle and loves a good cuddle. Although he might be a bit shy around new canine friends at first, he warms up quickly to become a sociable companion. Open your home and your heart to this delightful friend, and gain a devoted family member for life!

Pup-a-razzi.
They call me : Bernie
Predicted Breed: Chinese Crested mix.
Sex: Neutered Male
Approximate Age: 5 year
Weight: 12 Lbs.
Rescued from: Local Surrender
Likes: Kongs, shredding paper. Literally any type of food. Bernie is highly food driven and does attempt to jump on the table, or kitchen counter for food. Is starting to enjoy chewing on dog treats (bully stick type treats). He's learning to play with tennis balls, but doesn't know fetch yet.
Dislikes: Sudden movements and noises can startle him.
Ideal Home: Bernie would do best in an active home. He is very food motivated. If there are other dogs in the home, his adopter would need to watch he doesn't steal food from the other dog. He does enjoy having a canine companion to play with and would prefer a home where he will have a friend.
Attached home, Detached home, Active home, Left alone 2-4 hrs only
Energy Level: Medium
Experience with Kids: recommend only Children over 12 yrs
Experience with cats: unknown
Medical Needs: none
Training Needs: He is an active dog that would benefit from basic training. He loves running and jumping and may enjoy agility classes. He knows his name but is still working on his recall. House training is going well as long as the weather is good.
House trained, Needs basic training, Chews
Since these dogs are just learning to be leash trained, we will only be accepting applications from potential adopters with a secure yard that the dogs are able to go for bathroom breaks. We will only consider potential adopters in or near Calgary and do not recommend small children in the home.
From Bernie's Foster:
Bernie is a lovely little dog! Active, happy, bright, and perky; a real love-bug. He's yet to meet someone he doesn't like, and is gaining confidence daily. He plays with my dogs for most of the day and then snuggles on the couch or on my footstool in the evening to watch TV.
He absolutely is a velcro puppy and will shadow his human around. He really just wants to be loved, and would be a fantastic little guy for almost anyone.
Since he's very food driven, he can be very trainable. Honestly, agility as a hobby would be fantastic for him, or just walks through the park and runs in the dog park. He's very sweet and charming with his old man eyebrows!

Thanks fur always being there for me
They call me : Canela (Canelita)
Predicted Breed: Terrier mix.
Sex: Spayed female
Approximate Age: 3 year
Weight: 20 Lbs.
Rescued from: Los Cabos, Mexico
Likes: She loves to eat, play and walk. She’s also a cuddler and thinks she’s a lapdog but is too big for that. She loves to sit in the sun. Tummy rubs.
Dislikes: Nothing noted
Ideal Home: Canelita needs to be given a little time when meeting new people as she is shy. Given a chance, she does warm up quickly. She is a mild mannered dog that would fit in well to most homes.
Attached home, Detached home, Senior home, Quiet home, Active home, Left alone during work 8+ hrs
Energy Level: Medium
Experience with Kids: Unknown
Experience with cats: unknown
Medical Needs: none
Training Needs: When out for a walk, her adopter will need to be mindful that Canelita will eat anything off the ground and will try to run after small prey such as squirrels and rabbits. With basic training, she would become redirected easier.
She also will bark at dogs walking by if she sees them out the window. Her foster is working with her to discourage this behaviour.
House trained, Needs basic training, Crate trained, Shy, Walks on leash
From Canelita's Foster:
Canelita (spanish for little cinnamon) is one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever met. She would be great in any household. Loves her walks, cuddles, treats and LOVES to eat. She sleeps in her crate for over eight hours and doesn’t fuss. This sweetie is SUPER smart and a very quick learner - most times I only have to tell her something once. She’s great company - its been a joy fostering her.
It's the little things in life... like me :)
They call me : Dolly
Predicted Breed: Chinese crested mix.
Sex: spayed female
Approximate Age: 2 year
Weight: 7 Lbs.
Rescued from: Local surrender
Likes: Dolly loves running in the yard, she runs super fast!! Having a secure yard to run in is a must have. She has discovered the toy box and digs through the toys to find her favorites and then collects them all in a particular spot. She seeks out the attention of the other dogs in the house, she likes to cuddle with the other dogs and will curl up in their beds with them. She likes to have her human around her and will follow from room to room.
Dislikes:Dolly does not like her crate - it is a struggle to get her into a crate. When travelling in her crate she vomits, even on an empty stomach. She does not like to be alone, she will scratch at the door if left in a room. She will whine and cry as well. Dolly does not like to be touched. Loud noises and sudden movements frighten her, though this has improved over time, she is becoming more tolerant of noise and movement.
Ideal Home: Dolly will require a home with a confident canine companion to help her learn life isnt so scary. A quiet, detached home would be best. Dolly would do best in a quieter home where her humans are home more than not.
Detached home, Senior home, Quiet home, Left alone 2-4 hrs only
Experience with Kids: recommend only children over 12 yrs old
Experience with cats: unknown
Energy Level: medium
Medical: None
Training Notes: Dolly is a sensitive dog that needs a adopter to be patient and provide her with gentle guidance as she learns how to be a dog. She has come along way with house training, having another dog in the home whose lead she can follow by going outside together to go potty has helped. She still has accidents but with consistency with training she will continue to improve.
Needs basic training, Barks indoors, Shy, Fearful
Since these dogs are just learning to be leash trained, we will only be accepting applications from potential adopters with a secure yard that the dogs are able to go for bathroom breaks. We will only consider potential adopters in or near Calgary and do not recommend small children in the home.
From Dolly's Foster:
Dolly has such a sweet personality. As she has become more comfortable and confident, her playful side is coming out! Watching her pounce on her toys and try to engage the other dogs in play makes us smile. She plays much like a puppy, full out running in circles and squeaking her toys and then she crashes and curls up in her bed. She would make a great companion for anyone who works from home where she can curl up at your feet while working and play/go for a walk at lunch time.
Loyal forever
They call me : Freckles
Predicted Breed: Chinese crested mix.
Sex: neutered male
Approximate Age: 2 year
Weight: 14 Lbs.
Rescued from: Local surrender
Likes: He enjoys chewing on his bully sticks, playing with his food. He loves playing with toys and de-stuffing them in the process. He has a lot of fun playing with the other dogs, whether it be play fighting or tug of war with a toy. When he warms up to a person, he absolutely loves gentle pets, scratches, and grooming with a brush.
Dislikes: At this point he doesn't quite like it when people try to confront him directly. He doesn't like car rides, considering he has thrown up or peed during every trip.
Ideal Home: Freckles will need a patient home that can help him learn to become a confident dog. He is nervous around new people and would prefer a less active home. Due to his insecurities, having a confident dog in the home will really help him come out of his shell.
Detached home, Quiet home, Active home, Left alone 2-4 hrs only
Experience with Kids: unknown
Experience with cats: unknown
Energy Level: Low-medium
Medical: None
Training Notes: He would benefit from basic training however we recommend giving him some time to build his confidence or completing the training at home. He has some separation anxiety and will bark when left alone. Most of the time he is a quiet little boy.

Since these dogs are just learning to be leash trained, we will only be accepting applications from potential adopters with a secure yard that the dogs are able to go for bathroom breaks. We will only consider potential adopters in or near Calgary and do not recommend small children in the home.
From Freckles's Foster:
Freckles is a dog that is slowing coming out of his shell. He loves to play with his foster siblings, chew treat sticks, and play with his food. He absolutely loves finding a good toy, playing tug-of-war with it, and eventually tearing out its insides. He has silly bursts of energy but is happy to zonk out on the couch for a few hours.

She hasn't really learned to play yet but is happy to join you on walks as long as you let her trail behind you. She loves to sunbath and would spend hours outside in the sun if you let her. She is goofy once she gets to know you and will gladly accept any pets you have to offer. This sweet girl will be a fit for any type of home as she is quiet, shy and loyal and will make a family very lucky to have her.

Pee pad trained, Needs basic training, Shy, Fearful, Walks on leash
From Yolanda's Foster:
She is a LOVE BUG!!! All she wants to do is sit with you and love you. She is so cute too. Because she is shy it is so rewarding when you see her come out of her shell. She wags he little tail and smiles every morning. She always is offering her belly for pets once she is comfortable. She is SO SO easy!!! I have never had a foster dog this easy!! No barking, no chewing, no marking, my kids joke that she is basically a stuffed animal!!! She must have been a mother in a past life because whenever there is a kid near her that she feels safe with she is always trying to lick them clean. Also she is sure to do her walk around after they are done eating to make sure she has cleaned up after them under the table. She would be an amazing family pet for anyone who can take the time to make her feel safe and loved.
