My story

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

Have you been searching for a best friend that will stay up late and cuddle with you on the couch while you binge watch your favourite show for the 5th time? Well look no further because Daisy has been dreaming of a life with you (and she promised us she would not judge you when you are on your 3rd hour straight)!

Daisy has been looking for her furrever home since July and though she may be shy at first, this sweet cuddle bug is ready to go on so many adventures with her new family, did we mention she loves her car rides?!

Daisy told us she really would love a family that will play soccer with her because she LOVES playing with, chasing or playing keep away with her Jolly ball!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Come into the Centre and if you see a pet you like, you are able to do a "Meet and Greet" with that pet. Spend some time in alone with the pet or take a dog out for a short walk. If you are still interested in adopting the pet you can meet with one of our Adoption Counsellors who will have you fill out and application and will ask you some questions about the environment in which you live. If you seem like a wonderful match and your envirnoment meets the needs of the pet then your application should be approved!
