About a month ago, a box was left outside the Toronto Humane Society. Inside there were eleven mini-dogs, mostly Toy Poodles, Chihuahuas and Poodle/Chihuahua mixes. The box of dogs was transferred to Toronto Animal Services South where it was discovered one of the dogs had been ganged up on by the some of the others and had been injured. While getting bullied is never any fun, that particular dog was sent to a vet clinic where someone fell in love with it and adopted it, so, as it turned out, it was the first one home.
Of the remaining dogs, some went to TAS-North and some went to TAS-East. I've seen their photos and descriptions come up on the TAS adoption page over the last month and I think those ones have all been adopted out by this point.
The remaining three at TAS South were just put into adoption last week (due to some lingering medical issues?) and over the weekend two of them were homed.
The last remaining dog is this little girl, Nene, and I'm not sure why she hasn't been snatched up.
Maybe her "problem" is that she is constantly chit chatting. I can't remember the last time I've walked a dog with so much to say. It's not barking really, though there is the occasional yip. It's mostly squeaks and purrs. It's like she's talking on a cell phone in some mini-mutt language. I think she's just putting on a show, pretending she's super popular so that someone will like her and take her home.
The best way to check on the adoption status of this dog (and other dogs and cats and other small domestic animals) is to visit
Toronto Animal Services adoption website or call 416 338 6668 for the Toronto Animal Services South shelter. If the dog is no longer on the TAS adoption website, it's probably because it's been adopted already.
