Story
EHS volunteer comment: "Ronnie is a handsome gentleman with a dynamite personality to match. He's affectionate and sweet and is happy to be included in the lives of his people. When out walking he loves to check in and make sure his people are having as much fun as he. He'll flop down for a belly rub without hesitation. Ronnie is a guy who truly loves love. He enjoys snow and happily frolics in the fresh powder. A walk is the way to this guys heart, but only if you promise to give him snuggles after as well! He is loving referred to as "a one-eyed pirate" which only adds to his charm and he's seemingly adapted so well post surgery."Meet Ronny! This charming pup is a people-lover through and through, with a soft spot for snowy adventures. He has been described as very gentle, loves to cuddle and play, and is an all around sweetheart. Whether he's dashing through fresh powder, enjoying a nice car ride, or simply lounging, Ronny's sweet nature makes him a joy to be around. Ready to add this snow-loving sweetheart to your family? Come meet him at the Edmonton Humane Society!https://youtu.be/4um2xZ1YmVUhttps://youtu.be/1feFhMzqF1k Primary Color: Black Secondary Color: White Weight: 25.5 Age: 1yrs 1mths 1wks

Story
Location: Taber, Alberta. Energy level: High energy. Cats and small animals: Yes, if properly introduced and managed. Dogs: Yes. Kids: older dog savvy children. Meet Journey, a sweet and silly pup who is looking for her forever home. Journey's best qualities include her playful nature, love for toys, and her ability to bring joy and laughter to everyone around her. She enjoys playing fetch or tug, playing in the water, going for walks, and people-watching. Journey is a high-energy dog who enjoys going for 1-2 60-minute walks a day. Although Journey is still learning how to walk politely on leash, she's made quick progress and enjoys her walks. Because she is still working on her anxiety, barking dogs and new people can make her nervous. She would benefit from someone who is experienced in building confidence and training dogs with anxiety and fear. Journey is fully crate-trained, settles without barking when home alone, and sleeps through the night. She does whine a bit when she knows people are home but still settles in quickly. Journey is house-trained with minimal accidents, but is still learning how to communicate that she needs to go out. On car rides, Journey can still be quite nervous and tries to ride in her person's lap so she would benefit from a car crate or another person for comfort. Journey would thrive in an active household with dog-savvy children. She can be nervous around new people, regardless of size or gender. She gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy having a companion to play with. Although she doesn't display an active prey drive, she does have a chase drive, so she should be placed in a home without cats or small animals. Due to Journey being nervous and timid at first, she requires multiple meet 'n' greets before the adoption can be finalized. If you are looking for an energetic, goofy, loyal companion who will give you endless affection and laughs then Journey just might be your girl! ​ Click "apply to adopt" to complete an application and one of our team leads will be in touch via email to arrange a phone within a few business days.

Story
🐶 Quick Facts 🐾 • Name: Kiko • Age: 3 years old • Gender: Male • Neutered: Yes • Breed: Border Collie Mix • Colour: White & Black • Weight: 17kg • Height: 60 cm (to the shoulder when standing on all fours) 🐕My Story🐕 I’m Kiko, a sweet and resilient 3-year-old Border Collie mix with a heart full of love and a spirit that shines as brightly as my black-and-white coat. I’m a handsome, medium-sized boy weighing 17 kg (37 lbs), standing about 60 cm tall at the shoulder. My journey hasn’t been without challenges—I was found in 2021 with a suspected hip fracture from a car accident. Despite this, I was described as “beautiful, gentle, and patient” in the shelter records. My hip healed on its own, and now I’m healthy, neutered, and ready to find my forever family. I’ve come a long way, and my loving personality has only grown stronger. 🐾My Personality💖 I’m a friendly, social pup who loves everyone I meet! Whether you’re a familiar face or someone new, I’ll greet you with a wagging tail and maybe even lean in for a cuddle. I’m gentle and patient with kids, making me a great companion for families. If you pick me up or scratch my belly, I’m all yours—I’ll happily roll over to show my trust and affection. My calm, affectionate nature makes me a joy to have around. 👨🏻My Social Side 🐕 I’m a social butterfly with dogs too! I enjoy meeting new canine friends, especially those around my size, and I’m polite and playful when saying hello. If another dog gets too pushy, I prefer to steer clear rather than engage in any drama. While I haven’t had much experience with cats, my easygoing and adaptable personality suggests I could learn to coexist peacefully with them. I’m a well-mannered, harmonious companion for both people and pets. 🔋My Energy Level & Walks🚶 I have a moderate energy level that makes me the perfect balance of active and relaxed. I love outdoor activities like walks and playtime, but I settle down nicely afterward and enjoy relaxing by your side. While I may pull on the leash a little, I’m eager to follow my human and learn new things. My Border Collie roots shine through in my intelligence and loyalty—I’m a quick learner who thrives on interaction and connection. After a good walk or play session, I’m ready for some quiet downtime at home. 💕More About Me😋 I’m a calm, adaptable dog with a heart of gold. I rarely bark unless there’s a reason, and I don’t guard my food, making me an easygoing addition to any household. I’m well-trained with potty habits and comfortable using both indoor pads and going outside. My gentle nature, intelligence, and social personality mean I’ll fit in just about anywhere, whether you’re looking for an active partner or a laid-back companion. 💌Last Message💌 If you’re ready to welcome a loyal, loving friend into your home, I’m here to be the perfect companion. I can’t wait to meet my forever family and start this exciting new chapter of my life! 📺 Videos📺 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THpkskYlAMA&list=PLIsLTtIpe3Jwn36sUaqG732b_1wX00ipu

Story
🐶 Quick Facts 🐾 • Name: Damon • Age: Estimated 7 months • Gender: Male • Neutered: Yes • Breed: Border Collie mix • Color: Black and white • Weight: 12.5 kg • Height: 48 cm (to the shoulder when standing on all fours) • Health o Vaccinations: Up-to-date, including rabies and comprehensive vaccinations. o Heartworm Test: Negative (tested in July 2024). 🐕My Story🐕 Hello! I’m Damon, a lively and clever Border Collie mix who’s always ready for an adventure. My story began on a tough note—I was found lying weak and dehydrated on the streets. Thankfully, kind people noticed me and brought me to safety, where I was nursed back to health. Since then, I've blossomed into a strong, happy pup, and now I’m ready to find a family who’s as enthusiastic about life as I am! 👨🏻My Social Side 🐕 True to my Border Collie roots, I’m full of energy and love to play. Whether it’s chasing after toys, playing tug, or running in wide-open spaces, I’m in my element when I get to move and explore. I also enjoy playing with my dog friends, and while I can be a little rambunctious, it’s all in good fun! I’m happiest with buddies who don’t mind my playful style, but I know how to be gentle when the situation calls for it. When it comes to people, I might be a little shy at first—especially around younger children who make sudden moves—but once I get comfortable, I warm up quickly and enjoy gentle pets and attention. I even don’t mind being picked up into a cozy hug! I’ve also been practicing my manners and obedience skills in a training program, where I’m impressing everyone with my intelligence and eagerness to learn. 🔋My Energy Level & Walks🚶 My energy level is pretty high, so outdoor adventures are essential for me to burn off steam. After a good play session or a nice walk, though, I settle down happily and relax. On walks, I can get a bit excited and pull on the leash, but I respond well to gentle guidance. I’m naturally focused on my human, so with a little training, I’m sure I’ll be a great walking buddy. 💕More About Me😋 As for my routine, I’m a big fan of outdoor bathroom breaks, and I’m learning about scent marking when in new places—it’s just my way of saying hello! I’m pretty quiet at home and rarely bark, but I might give a little yip if I want something. 💌Last Message💌 Overall, I’m looking for an experienced family, ideally one who understands Border Collies or active, intelligent dogs like me. I’ll thrive in a home where I can get plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation, as well as consistent guidance. With my smarts, boundless energy, and loving personality, I’m eager to be someone’s loyal and playful companion. Could you be the one to give me my forever home? 📺 Videos📺 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eflj1CXNRdU&list=PLIsLTtIpe3JyZRZTBMHRH29B7CCxsyC-o

Story
🐾 Hi there! I’m Joy! 🐾 I’m a lovely 3-year-old Border Collie mix with a beautiful black and white coat. I weigh 11 kg, making me the perfect size for all kinds of adventures! 🥰 My Story: I was rescued just in time from a kill center, and now I’m looking for my forever home where I can share all my love and joy. 💖 My Personality: I’m very affectionate and love to rub against people, whether I know them or not. I’m always ready for some pets! 🐶 You can lift me by putting your arm under my belly. I’m easy to handle! 🪶 Once I get to know you, I’ll happily show you my belly. It’s my way of saying I trust you! 🐾 I love meeting new dogs and always ask them to play. I’m a friendly girl! 🐕 I might need a bit of caution when meeting new dogs for the first time, especially if toys or snacks are involved. 🧸 When I see a cat during a walk, I stay focused on my human. Cats don’t distract me! 🐱 I enjoy outdoor activities and have a normal energy level. After a fun time outside, I like to rest quietly. 🌳 I tend to pull on the leash a bit, but I generally follow my human well. 🚶‍♂️ I don’t guard my food against people, but I might growl if another dog approaches me while I’m eating. 🍽️ I’m very calm in a kennel and know how to get in and out of a car by myself. 🚗 I generally only do my business outside. 🚽 Fun Facts: I’m people-friendly and get along with strangers easily. 🥰 I used to guard resources, but I’m much better now. My new family should be firm when giving me snacks or toys. 🍖 I might try to bite a stranger’s hand if I’m in a kennel, but that’s because I was traumatized while moving to a training center. 🏡 I don’t show any behavior issues at the training center, but I might need some time to adjust in a new place. 🐾 I’m looking for a loving home where I can continue to grow and share my affection. If you think we could be a perfect match, please come meet me! 🏡💕
