Hi, I’m Champ!
As you can see from my photos, I’m a pretty handsome guy with a great smile. In typical husky fashion, I have a LOT of energy and would love to be your hiking, running or swimming buddy. I even have a number of tricks to keep you entertained!
I look up to the great Houdini and have been known to make great escapes of my own. All of my furriends are impressed when they hear about the times I’ve jumped over fences and broke through crates!
The PDA handlers describe me as goofy, loving, loyal and sweet.

Hi, I’m Gatlin!
I love to snuggle, chase butterflies, play with the garden hose and spend time with my best furriend Khoya.
I keep a close circle and have a really hard time making new furriends. Stranger danger, amirite?? Speaking of Stranger danger, I don’t trust new people and can react aggressively out of fear. Thankfully I’ve mastered wearing a muzzle so I can experience the outside world! I will need a lot of time to learn to trust my new family and would prefer to stay safe in my crate when visitors come by. Also, tiny humans scare me. They’re so grabby and unpredictable – adults only please!!
DOB: 2024 Breed: Cane Corso, Approx 110lbs
Hi, I’m Khoya!
Like my BFF Gatlin, I also have a hard time meeting new people and dogs and can react aggressively.
Once you get past my tough girl demeanor, I’m loving, loyal and sweet. I especially love belly rubs and snuggles! To keep others safe I’ve mastered my crate and muzzle skills.
DOB: 2022
Breed: Bully Mix, approx 80lbs
Hi, I’m Piper!
I agree with Gatlin and Khoya… strangers are scary and cannot be trusted!! I will take some time to warm up to my new family but once I get to know you I will love you furever! I’m very cuddly and LOVE pets and snuggles.
The best way to get to my heart is through my stomach. I am a foodie and willing to taste test any new recipe – free of charge!! I also love crunching empty waterbottles, going for walks and playing fetch.
I am a smarty pants who is extremely obedient. I am especially proud of my downstay as well as my leash and muzzle skills.
DOB: 2021 Breed: CKC registered purebred Rotweiller, Approx 80lbs
Hi, I’m Beau!
I’m an old soul who loves leisurely walks and long naps. I get along well with other dogs and people…so long as they don’t touch my stuff! This includes my bed, my food, and my favourite spot on the couch. Like some humans, I can get grumpy if you wake me up from a nap or try to move me when I’m cozy. “Let sleeping dogs lie” – thats my motto!
I’m pretty low maintenance, just feed me, take me on short walks, and give me a place to crash. In return I will give you companionship and loyalty.
DOB: 2020
Breed: Coonhound, approx 60lbs
Meet Sahara!
I am playful, curious and attentive. I love people and get along well with my select group of furriends. It’s best to keep me away from cats and other small creatures, I just can’t kick my predatory instincts!
While I’m friendly to most dogs, I have a hard time sharing and can get upset if another dog touches my stuff. I think I’d like to be your one and only pet.
Breed: Dutch Shepherd, approx 70lbs
DOB: 2023
Hi, I’m Tiramisu!
I’m a petite shepherd with lots of love to give! I’m a great play buddy to my best furriends but can be selective about which dogs I like. I’m crate trained and pick up skills easily.
Cats?? I LOVE cats! You mean for breakfast… right? I am known for my ability to hunt and attack small creatures, including dogs. I promise to keep your home pest free (including cats).
Overall I’m sweet, smart and playful.

Hi, I’m Minka!
I’m a very sweet girl who is eager to please.
I can be a little cautious the outside world but If you’re willing to help me build confidence, I’m sure I can make you proud!
I love pets and am very affectionate. I’m also an athlete! I’m great at jumping obstacles (including fences) and can run pretty fast.

Howdy, I’m Journey!
I came to PDA all the way from Texas USA!
Due to the overpopulation of strays, I was sentenced to death row. Thankfully I was brought to PDA for a second chance at life. I’m a very sweet easy going girl who loves naps. I get along with people and other dogs but can sometimes be a little shy. Once I warm up I’m playful and affectionate. I’ve never had a home and would be grateful to have a family to call my own.
Breed: Lab/hound mix, approx 70lbs
DOB: Unknown, estimated to be 4-5yrs
Please note that Journey is a flight risk and requires a fully enclosed outdoor space.
Hiya, I’m Clyde!
I’m a medium energy guy who loves a good butt scratch. I’m very confident and can sometimes be stubborn.
I’m a keen explorer who loves to investigate the world around me. I love walks but have a tendency to pull. You would too if you had a nose as good as mine!
Since I’m so confident and smart, I’ve volunteered to govern any playroom I’m in. No misbehaving on my watch! Sometimes my furriends call me the fun police behind my back. While I’m proud of my title, it can be tiring. I think i’d like to be the only dog in my new home.
Breed: Beagle mix, approx 35lbs

Hi there, I’m Dakota!
I’m a very shy girl who takes her time warming up to new people. Since my owners passed away, it’s been hard to show love like I used to.
Once I get to know you I promise I’ll make a great best furriend. I’m affectionate and loyal and will enjoy following you around.
I will need some help building confidence in a new environment. I am especially fearful of loud noises. I’m shaking just thinking about fireworks!! Got a bathtub I can hide in?

Howdy, I’m Sedona!
After I delivered my pups back in Texas, we were all sent to a kill shelter. Thankfully some kind people brought me to PDA for a second chance at finding my furever family.
I get along well with most dogs and people but sometimes I can get overstimulated and get a little nippy. Children especially overwhelm me, I had some of my own and that was more than enough!! I could see myself living with an older child who can respect my boundaries and keep things calm.
Breed: Mixed, approx 50lbs
DOB: Estimated 2023
Hi, I’m Wrigley!
I’m a very playful guy who loves humans and dogs alike. On any given day you can find me goofin’ it up and wrestling with my furriends. I would love some human siblings but I worry that I might knock over the wee ones. I think kids over the age of 7 would be perfect! I would also love another dog to play with. I’d be happy in a home with no pets or kids too, so long as you love to play!!
Breed: Mix, approx 50lbs
DOB: Unknown, Estimated 2024
Howdy, I’m Kriss-Kross!
I’m a playful guy who LOVES affection. I can be selective about which dogs I get along with but I have a special place in my heart for a few of ladies here. I have a lot of energy and am always up for an adventure. Plus I have excellent leash skills!!

Hiya, I’m Elwood!
Before I came to PDA I never saw much of the outside world. Most of my time was spent in my crate.
I’m still getting used to all of the new things I’m trying. My favourite part was meeting other dogs. I was a little nervous at first but now I love to play – especially with the ladies! I’ve made a few girlfurriends and am known for being a bit of a flirt.
There are a few new things I don’t like… I can be sensitive about being touched and I don’t like being told what to do. I also don’t like when people touch my stuff but hey, I’ve never had such nice stuff!! Handlers at PDA say i’m warming up quickly and with enough love and patience I’ll make a great dog!
Breed: Lab mix, approx 45lbs DOB: August 2024
Hi, I’m Zoli!
I’m a shy guy who is still learning the ways of the world. I love playing with furriends and keeping active. I will happily share my toys but I do NOT like to share the really good stuff like treats and chews.
I also don’t like young kids – too unpredictable!
I’m sweet, affectionate, loving and cuddly. I’m looking for a family I can grow with. With the proper guidance I’m sure I can become a polite young gentleman.

Hi there, I’m Zava!
I’m confident, playful and snuggly. I get along with dogs and people of all ages and I would love to join you on adventures! Around here I’m known for my kind heart and affectionate personality. I know Huskies have a reputation of being high energy but I’d say I’m more of a medium energy gal. I’m up for a pawty but I also know how to keep things chill.

Hi there, I’m Gomez!
I’m a sweet boy who hasn’t had much experience in life. Because everything’s so new I can get overly excited and a little bit anxious. I do love people and other dogs but I can spook them when I come on too strong. I am working on gaining confidence, softening my approach and basic obedience. Also, I am quite the athlete! I love using the slatmill and playing. Regular exercise helps keep me well mannered.

Hi, I’m Runa!
I was brought to PDA by some nice people who found me on the side of the road. When they found me I was locked in a crate without food or water. I had a bad case of mange and the vet described me as emaciated. I’m not sure why I was left that way, I like to think I’m a pretty good dog.
After a few weeks at PDA I am a totally different dog! I love going for walks, playing with new furriends and getting lots of love from handlers. I get along with everyone and enjoy meeting new people. My mange is gone but the vet isn’t sure how much hair I’ll be able to grow back. I’m hoping that my sweet nature makes up for my funky hairdo.

Hey there, I’m Hetfield.
I’m a pretty easy going guy who gets along with dogs and people. I don’t want to ask for too much but I’m really looking for my furever snuggle buddy… and maybe a ball to play with. I’d like our daily routine to include walks and maybe some ball time. I guess I’m looking for my furever ball too.

Hi, I’m Gabriel
I’m a pretty chill guy who loves naps and belly rubs. When I first arrived I was a little nervous but now I get along with everyone.
As you can see from my pictures I’m built for comfort, not speed! I’m on a weight loss journey and would love a walking buddy… also a snack buddy. Maybe we can do both?

Whatsup!? I’m Big Delicious but you can call me Biggie for short
Don’t be fooled by my tough guy looks, I’m a big softie who loves everyone including people, dogs and kitty cats! I like a good butt scratch and I love walks. I’m still working on my leash manners but my skills will improve with practice. I’m pretty strong so I’ll need a strong owner.

Hey there, I’m Priya!
When I first came to PDA I was a little shy and a little nervous. I’ve been a very brave girl and am proud to say that I have been working on my confidence and have even made some furriends! The handlers won me over pretty quick, I like to think I won them over pretty quickly as well.

Hey, I’m Vincent!
I love: cookies, cuddles and naps.
I hate: strangers.
It’s hard for me to trust strangers, both humans and dogs. I must disclose that I am required to wear a muzzle in public, BUT I am muzzle trained and come with my very own. Once I get to know you I’ll be putty in your hands.

Hi there, I’m Lolli!
I’m a sweet, affectionate girl who is very obedient. I do have fear based reactivity and unfortunately I have previously let fear get the best of me. Due to a bite history I request that my new home be child-free and that I be the only pet. Who needs kids anyways… I’ll be your baby!
In my short time at the PDA facility I have met new people and made new furriends with no issues, but I need new people and dogs to give me the time and space I need to get to know them before approaching me. I can be a little shy but I mean no harm. I love my crate and should be crated when new people come over – no new friends!
Breed: Bully mix approx 80lbs Approx DOB: July 2023
Hi, I’m The Machine!

Hi, I’m Betty!
I’m a very affectionate girl with lots of love to give. I get along well with most other dogs but I tend to get a little excited around the little guys. I have minor resource guarding, but only to other doggos. I’m a good listener and will leave something alone if you tell me to. I can be sensitive and a little shy, for this reason I think I’d like a home with only adults, or with older children.

Hi, I’m Cedric!
I’m a goofy, playful guy with a heart of gold. I get along well with other dogs and people but I can be sensitive at times. I don’t like to be pushed around. Thankfully I’m a great communicator and will let you know if I’m feeling uncomfortable. Due to my size I’d like to avoid apartment living. A nice yard with enough room to run is best. Right now I’m a young pup with lots of energy, but I’m looking forward to an early retirement – lounge town here I come! Don’t worry, I’ll still keep my goofy charm as I get older.

Hi, I’m Zye!
Are you hiring? I’m only 50% Maremma but I promise I’m 100% ready to guard. I love people I know and get along well with other animals but If I see a sudden stranger on my property, my instincts will kick in. I do have a minor bite history but I was just doing my job! I’ll need my new family to respect my instincts. On my off time I enjoy lounging, snacking and playing.

Howdy, I’m Kona!
I’m a gentle giant who loves a good snuggle. I get along well with other dogs but I don’t like other dogs touching my things. For this reason, I’d like to be the only dog in your home. I’m great with kids of all ages but I will of course need them to respect my boundaries. I have some cat experience but I’d like my potential cat sibling to match my relaxed energy. I’m gentle, calm and easy going.

Howdy, I’m Creek!
My love language is physical touch…pets please! I’m loyal and a great listener. I am a classic southern gentleman but it’s important to know that I am a working breed.

Hello, I’m Clancy!
Don’t get distracted by my handsome features, I’m more than just my good looks! I’ve got a big heart and I’m available for all of your snuggling needs. I haven’t had much exposure to other dogs so I’m taking things slow. I’m a muzzle pro and good at paying attention to other dogs’ social cues.
I’ve been through a lot in my life. Before coming to PDA I was left at a kill shelter in Texas with a fractured leg. Thankfully I was rescued, my leg was fixed up and now I live in beautiful Kingston Ontario. Every once in awhile a get a little limp but otherwise I am right as rain!

Hi there, I’m Briar!
I’ve had a few litters and now I think it’s my turn to be the baby! I’m looking for someone who understands that snuggling is a necessity. I get along well with other dogs too but I’m more of a people dog than a dog’s dog, y’know? I like to play, snack and nap… and cuddle!!

Hello, I’m Glory!
Like Gabriel, I’m working on my weight loss journey. In the meantime my extra chunk will help keep you warm on cold nights. I’m a snuggle bug and will love following you around. I am playful and loving although I am working on my relationship to other dogs. Ideally I’d like to be the only dog in your home but know that I can get along well with others if introduced correctly.
