My story

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


Hey, future family! My name’s Rusty, and I’m a 2-year-old neutered male with a soft spot for quiet spaces and gentle souls. Let me tell you a bit about myself.

When it comes to other dogs, I’m all in! I get along great with my fellow canines and would love to have a dog buddy to hang out with. We can explore the yard together, keep each other company, and just enjoy the simple life. I would need a home with another dog.

I’ve also lived with cats before, and we got along just fine. I’m respectful of their space and don’t mind sharing my home with a feline friend.

I’m a bit cautious around new people. It takes me a little while to warm up, but once I do, I`m cool with licking your hand or getting some attention. I’m the kind of dog who likes to stay close to home, where I know every nook and cranny. A country home with some space to roam, where I can feel safe and secure, is just what I need.

I’m a homebody at heart. A true country boy. Once I’m settled on my property, that’s where I’m happiest. I don’t have a big desire to go anywhere esle – I just want a peaceful place where I can relax and feel comfortable.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion for your dog who just needs a little patience and understanding, I’m your guy. I promise that with time and love, I’ll become your most devoted friend.

Looking forward to finding my forever home!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All adoptions begin with an adoption application, available here or on our website (or from one of our wonderful volunteers in person). The application is reviewed by the adoptable animal's foster home as well as by the appropriate coordinator (canine/feline) to assess how the animal will fit in your home. We endeavour to respond to all applications within 72 hours, but being 100% run by volunteers sometimes we need additional time--if you haven't heard back after 72 hours, feel free to contact us to check in on your application.

Canine Adoption Fees:
$450 for puppies under 1 year of age
$375 for dogs over 1 year & under 7 years
$300 for dogs 7 years and older

Feline Adoption Fees:
$250 for kittens and cats up to 12 months old
$200 for cats between 1-6 years old
$150 for cats 6 years old and older

Adoption fees help offset the cost to our organization of providing full medical care (including spay or neuter surgery) to each animal we adopt to a furever home.
