Please meet our current adoptable dogs! All of our dogs are adult rescues.  Chloe has settled into her foster home, has been vetted locally, and is now officially ready for her forever family! Nala is recovering from surgery with her foster family and will be ready for her forever family very soon, we're currently accepting applications for her too!

For dogs that are still in Colombia, you must be able to cover travel costs to Toronto, including the flight, crate, an international medical certificate and any duties to be paid on arrival. We make the flight arrangements, complete all of the paperwork and pick up the dogs at the airport. These direct adoptions are suitable only for guardians/families with lots of dog experience and time to commit to the process. 

We are always looking for volunteers travelling to Colombia and back that are willing to help. It's pretty simple: someone from the rescue will meet you at the airport in Colombia with the dog, and when you land, one of our Canadian volunteers will be there to pick up the dog. The rescue covers all costs and provides the necessary paperwork for customs that indicates you are volunteering for a registered NFP. It's a great way to help a dog in need without a long-term commitment -- cargo flights are very expensive -- this makes it easier and more affordable for Canadian families to adopt one of these amazing mutts! Please contact us if you'd like to know more about how you can help.

A SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING ADOPTION FEES: The average cost to spay/neuter, vaccinate, transport each dog to Toronto and foster locally is around $1,200 per dog. The adoption fees we quote are the bare minimum we need to charge in order to continue our operations. We do our best to fund-raise the difference but as a small not-for-profit it’s not always possible. If you adopt from us and are happy with your adoption and are in a position to help we gratefully accept any additional amount you are able to provide so that we can continue helping more dogs find their forever homes.

Nala is the nicest!!

Meet Nala! A happy and friendly 4-5 year old French poodle mix. Found on the streets of Bogota, we suspect she was used as part of a backyard breeding operation, until no longer wanted and discarded. Our rescue coordinator scooped her up and placed her in foster care where she lived until recently brought to Toronto to begin her new life!


Nala is exceptionally sweet and friendly with other dogs and people. While not tested on cats we suspect she would be fine with them as she is a pretty submissive pup. That said, Nala loves her person and wants nothing more than to be around them and seeking affection. She is prone to whining and crying when left alone so a condominium life is not the best fit her. We are looking for a home where her parents will be present and able to work on building her confidence. She is a joy to be around!

Nala weighs a solid 14kg and is vaccinated, microchipped and has been tested negative for heartworm disease. She’s recently had her teeth cleaned and is in tip top shape for her new family. Nala does not like cats and so she needs to go to a home without them. Her adoption fee is $800.Please download an adoption application at the top of this page, if you'd like to know more about Nala and the adoption process.

This cutie is Chloe!

**ADOPTION PENDING** Chloe was rescued from the street in Subachoque by Dra. Martha, she was in heat and was being pursued my many male dogs. Dra. Martha scooped her up, took her to the farm and spayed and vaccinated her and gave her a safe place to live.


That was a few months ago and since then, she's been living on the farm. She recently arrived in Canada with a very kind flight volunteer and has settled into foster care in the east end of Toronto with no issues, she's loving it here. At somewhere between 1 and 2 years old, and tipping the scales at a whopping 4.6 kilos, she's a very petite pup with long, deer-like legs and of course, there are those epic ears! We think she is a poodle-chihuahua mix, possibly with a bit of lamb or alpaca thrown in for good measure! She has a curly coat which does not shed, but will require regular brushing and maintenance.

She is sterilized, vaccinated, micro-chipped and has tested negative for heart worm and tick-borne diseases; Chloe is also house-trained.

Chloe is a happy and outgoing pup, she's honestly kind of a goof with a silly sense of humour and LOTS of energy -- she's still very puppy-like in many ways. She gets along well with other dogs and also with cats. She has not been tested with young children and due to her petite size, we are searching for a home without them. Older, dog-savvy kids would be a nice fit for her, she loves to romp and play and she loves, loves her toys and anyone that will play with her! Chloe is also learning to walk nicely on a leash and is doing well, she'll also need some basic obedience work. She's an affectionate, funny and charming little girl!

Chloe's adoption fee is 700.00. Please contact us if you'd like to know more about this poodle-y pup and the adoption process.

This is Valiente!

Valiente was rescued from life at the end of a chain on a trout farm in La Calera where he was a guard dog. His rescuers convinced his previous owners that this was no life for him. He'd had very little human contact for a long time.


Valiente is currently living at a doggie day camp and while it's a lovely place, it's not home. Nevertheless, he makes the best of it, attending lots of public events and adoption fairs, where he helps promote responsible animal guardianship in rural areas -- he's even been in a couple of public service videos!

V is adorable and super-friendly. He loves everyone and he's an active and muscular little guy who's about 3 years old. Valiente is neutered, vaccinated and house-trained. He LOVES going for walks and hikes in the mountains around the doggie daycare and interacts well with the other residents there. Valiente will be micro-chipped upon arrival. He's about 16-17 kilos and is a terrier mix of sorts with THE BEST EARS. He's a great guy and a real love!!

Valiente is still in Colombia in foster care, and the cost to bring him here is approximately $800.00.* Please contact us if you'd like to know more about this remarkable pup and the adoption process.

This big guy is called Boris!

Boris and his brother were rescued from a bad situation. They're great guys and his brother has found a home in Colombia, but no one has been interested in big Boris, which is a real shame because he's a gorgeous and very kind dog.


Boris is a friendly and intelligent hound mix with piercing amber eyes and a big heart. He was rescued about a year ago from neglect and life on a chain in a backyard with no human contact or kindness. But in a testament to his kind nature and resilience, he has blossomed in foster care. He's currently living in a doggie daycare just outside of Bogota that is being paid for by his rescuers.

Boris is now about 2 years old and is about 18 kilos. He's house-trained, neutered and current on all of his vaccinations. He will be micro-chipped upon arrival in Canada. Boris is the official "welcome wagon" at his doggie daycare and is often used to welcome new dogs into the group because he is calm and sociable and a very friendly guy.

He has not been tested with cats or young children, so we're searching for a home without them. Older, dog-savvy kids kids would be great for Boris. as he has spent time with them and loves to play and romp around

Boris is still in Colombia and hoping for a forever family. The cost to bring him to Canada is about $850.00.* Please contact us if you are interested in learning more about this deserving dog and the adoption process.
