Are you ready to add a bundle of energy and love to your family? Look no further, because Kevin is here to steal your heart!
~ Kevin is a big, lovable goofball who is eager to find his forever home. As a large, high-energy breed, Kevin thrives on activity and adventure. Whether it`s a hike in the mountains or a game of fetch in the backyard, Kevin is always up for some fun. ~ However, Kevin is also a sensitive soul, particularly when it comes to his ears. Gentle touches and understanding will help him feel comfortable and safe in his new environment. ~ Kevin may be a bit nervous around other dogs at first, but with a slow and patient introduction, he could make a furry friend for life. He`s a work in progress when it comes to leash manners and managing his excitement, but with the right guidance and training, he`ll be strutting down the street like a pro in no time. ~ One thing to note about Kevin is his need for a home with older children, preferably 16 years and up. His exuberance and size may be overwhelming for younger kids, so he`ll thrive best in an environment where he can be the center of attention without any worry. ~ No apartments, please! Kevin needs space to stretch his legs and burn off that boundless energy. A fenced yard would be ideal for him to play and explore to his heart`s content. ~ Before Kevin finds his forever family, he`ll need to attend at least one in-person training session. This will help set him up for success and ensure a smooth transition into his new home.
If you`re ready to open your heart and home to a lovable goofball like Kevin, don`t hesitate to reach out and schedule a meet-and-greet. He`s ready to shower you with love and slobbery kisses for years to come!

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!
