My story

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

Meet Fry, a big-hearted boy who`s as cuddly as he is comical! This 80+ pound bundle of joy may be large in size, but he`s even bigger in personality. At the prime age of 3, he`s full of youthful energy. Always ready for his next adventure but also loves a good snuggle session on the couch, just a long as it includes a belly rub or two.

This clever canine has mastered the basics like `sit,` `stay,` `down,` and `shake,` but his real talent lies in his ability to make you laugh. Whether he`s pouncing on his toys, locked in on a bird out the window (that turns out to be just a leaf) or doing his best impression of a lap dog, he`s a joy to have around.

Fry is learning to respect boundaries. He’s quickly picked up on having to steer clear of the kitchen and resisting the urge to bound up the stairs. It`s as if he`s saying, `Look, I may be goofy, but I can be a good boy too!`

Fry is the perfect blend of fun, love, and smarts, wrapped up in a big, cuddly package. He`s not going to be just a canine companion, but instead the source of joy and laughter your home is looking for!

**Fry has a discounted adoption fee to help find him furrever home! Please note that applicants are still required to follow our adoption process and meet the requirements of this pet in order to be approved to adopt**

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!
