Brittany Adopted!

Brittany finally found her forever home. She was abandoned in an house when her previous owner moved away. He took the cute little new puppy, and left Brittany and another dog behind in the house for god knows how long. Because the city does not have a pound, she was brought straight to a clinic to be euthanized. We picked her up from the clinic, about 2 hours outside of Montreal.. and took her into our care. She has since worked through her separation anxiety, fear issues with men, and other little details. She blossomed into one of the most wonderful dogs we have ever had the pleasure of saving, or meeting.

Yesterday was HER day, we brought her to her new home over and hour east of Montreal. She will now be spending and sharing her life with her new friend a Great Dane! The new family is looking forward to including her in the obstacle classes they do with their current dog. She has a nice house, with a big yard to run in now. Her days of being and underdog are OVER.

Ginny Adopted!

Last weekend we made the trip to Vermont to bring Ginny the mother of 6 Husky puppies to HER forever home.

After a few wrong turns, getting lost, and crappy weather, Ginny (and us) made it to her adoptive home in one piece! A fresh start to a whole new life. Thank you to everyone, supporters, contributors and especially the Montreal SPCA Emergency Shelter volunteers for helping her get to this point.

She is a very loving and nurturing home, with a lot of space to run and finally just be able to enjoy life.

Her new mom says:

Hi Caroline,

She’s doing great, getting used to Vermont and our home. She is a joy to us and I think she has that figured out already.
She is too funny when she doesn’t want to pay attention to us. As I expected with a husky, Ginny definitely has a mind of her own.
She is a challenge, but a good one and we couldn’t enjoy her more!

She is also eating well, we have licensed her and she has an appointment with a local vet.
Thanks so much for bringing her into our lives.

Billy - Adopted!

Billy was adopted within a few days of coming into the rescue! He is now in a fantastic home and enjoying life as an only child with all the attention. Good luck billy!

Tango - Adopted

Tango was finally adopted today and will be enjoying his life with his new active owner, exactly what he needed. He was bought at a pet store impulsively as a puppy and like most pet store puppies found himself getting dropped off at the local shelter a few months later. Like most shelters, it was already full to the bring with dogs so Eleven Eleven chose this lucky pup to pull and put into a foster. He shared his time with us in with his other foster pup Charlie, and evolved into a well behaved and well rounded dog. We all fell in love with him, mainly Charlie and are happy to have helped him find such a loving and well deserved home. He can finally be rest assured he has found his final destination. Good luck Tango and his new companion human, Steven!

Update: BAMBI (now PENNY)

Penny is doing great in her new home.

Another happy tail!

Another rabbit ADOPTED!!!

Shayo, a rabbit brought into one of our affiliated vet clinics has been adopted by his foster family. Once a bun facing euthanasia for aggression, is now being described as a lap bun!!! His name has been changed to Shiloh and he is right at home in his new digs!!!

SHADOW ADOPTED (now BUDDY)

Shadow the dog found running around in Longueiul was not reported missing, or posted anywhere as lost has found a new forever home! His foster parents decided he was to special to give up. Even the resident cat has proven interested in him, she's not sure what too make of him yet but I'm confident they will become great friends! He's already making friends at the dog park, loving his walks and his new family. I'm happy too, as this family also happens to be in my family! My father and step-mother are the happy new puppy parents!!! Yay for Shadow... opps I mean BUDDY!!! Good luck little guy!

Boston Adopted!

Boston has finally had his break and found himself a forever home. He came to us in November after he found his way on someones porch and made camp.. for 1 month in the cold. Finally we took him in, found him a warm foster homes and had all his vetting done. He has been with us for 5 months looking for a home, and has now found what he was looking for. He is a gentle cat, sweet and affectionate. He will complete their lives like they have his, and will never be dumped on his be-hind again. This is one happy warm and happy toosh.. i mean tail ;)

Nikki - Adopted

Nikki was picked up as a stray and dropped off at Animal Control. No owner in sight and the shelter at its brims we took on Nikki and placed her in a loving foster home. Nikki was a very nervous pup when we first met her, had no idea where to hide or who to trust. In his care she blossomed into an affectionate, playful, happy go lucky puppy. Her foster home actually found the adoptive home for her, and a great one at that. Nikki is now a part of a family, and enjoys going to the office everyday with her new dad and the other office dogs. Not to mention getting the run of their big backyard.

Bandit - Adopted

Bandit was dropped off by his owner at a clinic to be euthanized because he did not have the energy to take care of him anymore. Bandit's previous owner did not realize getting a puppy in his old age was not the best idea; unfortunately Bandit almost paid the price for his bad decision. Eleven Eleven had 48hours notice, to find a foster home, get him picked up from the clinic which was over an hour outside of Montreal and save him. Thankfully he was saved last minute, and put him into a foster... who has fallen in love with him and chose to adopt!! He is a GREAT dog, they could not have even tried to find a better behaved dog. His previous owner in short is a loser, and lost out on this jem.

Kenya (aka Leyla) - Update

We just got this email from Kenya in!

Hi Caroline, Joanne and Charlie! Well, I’m so happy in this house. I go for a long walk or a run every morning and then get to snooze until lunchtime. OOOOOOOH, I love noontime! I get to go to the park and make lots of friends! So many smells, too. It’s awesome! My pack leaders make sure I don’t pull on my leash, but when we’re near the dog park I just can’t help it. My friends are waiting over there! I take another nap after lunch and then play with everyone when they get home. After another walk, I get my dinner and hang out with everyone. I know I’m not supposed to beg or eat people food, so I just sit quietly while my pack eats.

A couple of weeks ago, a really nice man (with yummy treats) took out those itchy stitches. I can hardly tell I had a wound there, well, except that my fur hasn’t come back yet.

I get to play in the country on the weekends, but I really don’t like going in the car. I hope I’ll get over it when I’m bigger. I like to go outside at the chalet and watch the birds and smell the wild animals. I can stay outside as long as I want, or I can sleep in front of the wood stove. What a life!

Thanks for finding my pack!

Bambi - Adopted!

Bambi has been adopted today after 5 months of being in the rescue looking for a home! She was rescued as a feral kitten on thanksgiving day, she was one of 15 kittens born last summer to the #09LA01 feral population. She was so scared at first, but turned into such a love bug. We will miss the little gal!

Pebbles Adopted

Pebbles foster decided to adopt her! Pebbles and his cat just got along too well and he could not imagine ever separating them again. Make this two happy tails in one!

Jill Adopted!

Jill a traumatized post puppy-mill pup has been adopted! We are hoping she is able to come out of her shell a little bit with her new mom. We can't blame her for being so scared! Poor little girl.

Newton Adopted!

Newton a sweet little owner surrendered hedgehog was adopted yesterday!

Jiminy Cricket Adopted!

Little Jiminy was adopted last night!! He has come such a long way from when we first rescued him at 8 weeks old from the feral cat population (#01NDG09) as a feral kitten. We had to use nets and gloves to catch him. You can not even tell now that he was ever afraid of humans. He is one little kitty with a whole lot of love (and energy). Seeing him get adopted to such a nice home makes freezing our toes off trying to catch him for an hour two months ago 110% worth it!

We got this update from his new mom this morning;

"Just wanted to let you know that Jiminy (or Macbeth, as I have renamed him), is doing very well! I did put all his necessities in one room (litterbox, food, toys, blankets) but the first thing he did was explore the whole apartment. He did stay in the room alone for awhile, but came out a lot in the evening to explore and play with the Cat Dancer.

He ended up sleeping on my pillow, and this morning woke me up with loud purring and lots of kisses on my nose! He is VERY friendly and affectionate today, and full of energy. :)

Thank you for everything! I'm so happy with Macbeth, and he seems pretty happy too. :)"

Minoush Adopted!

Minoush has been adopted after looking for a home for months! This little jem was dropped off at a clinic to be euthanized by her previous owners, their reasoning was; they no longer wanted her. At least they were honest! Anyways - their loss (losers). She is a fantastic kitty and now after 5 years of life has finally found the warm loving home she deserved from the start!

Curly Adopted

Curly has come a long way from where he started! An unwanted litter left on the balcony to freeze to death when the owners moved, wound up in a pound and was shortly on death row once his time was up. He is now in a fantastic, loving, active house hold with kids, a country house, an older doggy brother.. the works! Curly his the jack pot with his new home, and we are very happy to have been able to rescue such a great little pup!

Good luck Curly, you have a whole life ahead of you now!
