Vladi Cumberland

My story

Introducing “Vladi” from the Toronto Blue Jays litter. He’s an 8‑week‑old male aussie-mix (foster’s guess) with an exceptionally gentle disposition. He and his siblings didn’t have the best start in life- surrendered without their mother at about a week old, their eyes still closed. They required around‑the‑clock bottle feeding and care, and while this start was rocky, it has shaped them into incredibly social and people-oriented pups. Vladi is the calm, submissive, and gentle puppy of the trio. His laid-back personality would make him especially well‑suited for households with young children, first-time adopters, or anyone wanting a mellow companion. Vladi has typical fun-puppy-energy, but also an easy-going and sweet nature. His foster family says, “He’s often overlooked as being ‘plain’ compared to his unique-looking brothers, but his personality and disposition quickly make him everyone’s favorite.” He has the cutest extra toe on each back foot (also an aussie trait) and the most soulful eyes. He is learning to sit patiently while waiting for his food and sleeps accident-free through the night in his crate. He and his siblings are respectful and submissive to the resident dog. He excitedly greets everyone in the morning and will ask to be picked up for a quick snuggle so he can give gentle puppy-kisses.
