My personality

My story

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

I’m a silly, goofy girl. I’ve got a sweet, puppylike face and I love to stare at you when I think you have snacks for me. I like to excitedly hop instead of run, it’s one of my many quirks! At the shelter, I have been a little defensive of my food around other dogs and can get frustrated when they have food I don’t have. My future family will need to monitor this and work with me. If there are other animals, I should be fed away from them until I have worked through this. Despite that though, I’m a bundle of joy with the people working here. I’m slowly but surely gaining confidence and showing them how silly I can be!

I have diagnosed with elbow dysplasia, it causes me to hop when I walk and run. My future home will need to monitor it as I get older to make sure I am not too bothered by it. Right now, it isn't impeding my day to day life.

More about this shelter

Humane Society Yukon was founded in 1987 out of dire necessity from reports and incidents of unwanted and neglected animals in the Yukon with no existing facility or organization to help them. The organization originally consisted of nothing more than a fenced-in dog area on rural acreage and a telephone line set up by caring community members. In 1989, Humane Society Yukon was officially registered as a non-profit society in the Yukon.

Our name derives from a generous animal lover, Mae Bachur, who left her legacy fund to construct our building which is still in operation today. Humane Society Yukon takes cats and dogs from communities across the Yukon by staff who are dedicated to the professional care of their physical needs and emotional well-being. We consider ourselves the little shelter that could, with a little help from our friends. We depend on our generous community and donors to help us with vet care, housing, pet food, and amenities and we are immensely grateful for all their loving and kind support. We are committed to assisting the community in any way we can for the continued health and welfare of animals in the Yukon.
