CUDDLE CHampions
Our Furry Friends
Scout (Nickname: Scooter)
Owner: Tony
Scout was rescued from Manitoba in 2019 through the Toronto based organization, Save our Scruff . His DNA test said that he’s a mix of Shih Tzu, Malamute, German Shepherd, Rottweiler and Samoyed – and surprisingly, no Border Collie!
On the weekends he loves to head to the beach to swim in the lake, chew on sticks, dig in the sand, and make new friends. While he’s always a gentleman, when he’s an extra good boy he gets a puppuccino on the way home.
Sir Robin Of Loxley (Nickname: Loxley)
Owner: Ross
Loxley is a goldendoodle hailing from Ferndale, Washington. Loxley was the subject of Jerry Springer-esque ‘Who is the Father’ episode when it came to his parents!
After a dramatic paternity test and a couple of onstage punch ups, Loxley’s true father was revealed and his status as a medium sized goldendoodle vs standard size was confirmed. Loxley turns 10 in June!
Leonidas (Nickname: Leo)
Owner: Jason
Introducing Leo, the Red Doberman with an insatiable love for walks and chewing! At just six months old, Leo is a bundle of energy and excitement. His name, short for Leonidas, suits him perfectly – he’s brave, bold, and always ready for a new adventure (As Long as that Adventure is chewing things).
One of Leo’s favorite pastimes is going for walks. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood or a brisk hike in the woods. But when Leo isn’t out on a walk, you can usually find him indulging in his second favorite activity, chewing everything in sight!
Kiwi
Owner: Zahrah
Kiwi is a vibrant and charming 2 year old Kakariki who brings boundless energy and joy into our lives every day. With his cheeky personality, he’s a true gem. This little birdy is always on the move, showing off his acrobatic skills or engaging in all sorts of chewing games.
He enjoys a varied diet of fresh fruits, leafy greens, and the occasional treat. He is also very curious to explore new flavors and is always the first to taste anything we eat. Kiwi is not just a pet; he’s a cherished member of our family.
Preston
Owner: Matthew
Preston is a Morkie born on a farm outside of Saskatoon, SK. During his short year and a half of life, Preston has worked tirelessly to earn the nickname “The Destroyer of Toys”.
In his spare time, he enjoys long walks, snuggles at sunset, digging holes, and mauling hands.
BlackJack
Owner: Peter
Say hello to Blackjack! He’s declining due to a brain tumour but has no
regrets about the first 10 years of his life which he led with exuberance. It
seemed at times that he was on quests to make everyone laugh and to
outrun every dog in the world. He’s now retired those dreams and is enjoying
a sedentary life at home, making prisoners of his parents.
