My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Buttons, she is about 7 months old and around 20 pounds. We don't expect her to get much bigger.

Buttons was found in a garbage dump in Northern Alberta. She was found with a bad laceration around her ankle that is currently on the mend.

Despite her beginnings, she adjusted extremely well to living in a home. Buttons loves living in a home and can't get enough attention from the kids and other dogs she lives with.

She is very smart and very receptive to training.

She sleeps well in her crate and keeps it clean and is quiet in the home. She has absolutely zero aggressive tendencies even around food which is amazing because she knows what hunger feels like.

Buttons isn't a fancy dog, and her breed is unknown, but she gets top dog status for her amazing personality. She can quickly go from playful and bouncing to a Velcro lap dog. She adjusts her energy level to the crowd she is with which is an amazing quality for a young dog to have.

Buttons isn't completely housebroken but she is super smart and learning quickly from her dog friends.

If you are interested in a young. smart. sweet, resilient new friend ask about Buttons.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our process begins with an online pre adoption questionnaire followed by a telephone interview
Once both have been completed we consider suitability and if we feel the adoption candidate is a potential match we arrange a meet and greet with the dog you are interested in
From there we schedule a home visit and check personal and veterinary references.

Go meet their pets

All our dogs are in foster homes so meet and greets are by appointment only

Foster Homes
Sadly, each new day brings a flood of emails and telephone pleas to help yet another abandoned dear dog. We try and help these displaced dogs through our rescue efforts and networking. We are always in search of new foster homes where a dog can be cared for and loved until a permanent home is found. Speaking of Dogs Rescue covers food, medical attention and all the supplies required for the dogs in foster care. Foster parents need be responsible and patient people who will provide a safe environment for our dogs. A foster contract must be signed. This is a serious responsibility; however the experience is very rewarding. If you can open your heart and home to a foster dog please contact us. We have a comprehensive Foster Manual available for people who are considering becoming a foster parent.
