Story
I’m a gentle, soft-hearted boy with a shaggy black coat and a quiet, sensitive nature. Like my brother, I can be a bit timid at first and need a little time to feel safe around new people—but I really do want to trust you. With patience and kindness, my confidence will slowly start to shine. My brother is my best friend and helps me feel brave when the world feels big or unfamiliar. Having a calm, supportive home will help me continue to grow and come out of my shell. I’m looking for a loving family who understands that I’m still learning. I haven’t had much opportunity to practice basic commands or manners yet, so I’ll need someone who’s willing to teach me gently and cheer me on as I learn. I do well with other dogs and tend to be more of a follower than a leader. I have an easygoing personality, and I don’t think cats would be an issue for me either. I’m vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped—ready to find a safe, patient home where I can blossom into the happy, confident pup I’m meant to be.

Story
Hi, I’m Walnut I’m a gentle, soft-natured boy who’s still learning how to feel safe and loved. I can be a little timid at first, and it takes me some time to warm up to new people—but I truly want to trust you. I just need patience and kindness while I build my confidence. My brother is my best friend and helps me feel brave when things are new or a bit scary. Having a calm, supportive environment really helps me come out of my shell. I’m looking for a safe, loving home where I can grow at my own pace. I haven’t had much of a chance to learn basic commands or manners yet, so I’ll need someone willing to guide me and celebrate the small wins with me along the way. I get along well with other dogs and tend to be more of a follower than a leader. I’m easygoing by nature, and I don’t think cats would be a problem either. I’m vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped—ready to start my new life with someone who will help me become the confident, happy dog I’m meant to be.

Story
The name is Milkshake and I forsure bring the boys to the yard. I am a quirky, funloving lady who loves some snuggle time. I love people and I seem to be ok with cats but I am very unsure about other dogs so far. My first reaction is to protect my self. Smaller dogs seem to grab my attention but I haven't had much opportunity to meet many small dogs. So I will need the right house hold to fit my needs. I am fairly quiet and ejoying wrestling with my people and I don't have much interest in toys at the moment. I am up to date on vaccines, spayed, and microchipped ready to fall in love. stop by to meet me today!

Story
I’m Clover, a sweet little girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for cuddles. I didn’t always have an easy start—I came in as a scared stray, unsure of the world around me—but even then, it was clear how much I wanted love and connection. With a little patience and kindness, I’ve started to blossom into the affectionate, snuggly pup I was meant to be. One of my favorite things in the whole world is climbing right into your lap (yes, even if I don’t quite fit!) and soaking up all the love I can get. I’m also a professional belly-rub demander—I’ll roll right over and give you my best “please?” look until you give in. I’m still under a year old, so I’ve got that fun puppy energy too! I love to play, explore, and then crash into a cozy cuddle session afterward. I truly have a gentle, loving soul and just want to be someone’s loyal companion. I’m spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped—completely ready to find my forever home. All I need now is you.

Story
Hey im jet! When I first came here, I was really scared. Everything was new and everyone was a little too big and loud for me. I didn’t know if I could trust anyone. But with time, patience, and lots of gentle encouragement, I started to realize that the people here were pretty great! Now, I’m a total lovebug once I know you. I adore my human friends and have so much fun playing with my dog pals, too. I’m proud to say I’ve mastered sit and paw—I’m a bit of a pro at those! I’m still working on lay down... it’s a work in progress, but I’ll get there soon. I can still be a little shy when meeting new people, so I like slow introductions and a bit of space at first. Once I know you’re safe, though, you’ll get to see every happy giggle and tail wag I’ve got. I might have started out scared, but now I’m ready to share all the love I’ve been holding in my heart.

Story
Scout is a 5 year old Pembrooke Corgi, we adopted her in the spring of 2021 from a farm near Edmonton. She comes from a farm family with corgi herding parents. Scout is energetic and loves to play fetch and run, she loves spending time outside and going for walks. She is a people person and is always excited to make new friends. As a puppy she was kennel trained but as she grew she now enjoys sleeping on the bed. House trained, Scout can accommodate a working schedule and sleeps thru the night. She loves a late sleep in and only requires the bottom half of the bed to do so. Scout has completed a beginner training class and can sit, lay down, paw, turn, position and leash walk. We had nipping incident last year and we consulted her vet and did private training, and thought we were managing well but had a bite last month and feel we need to find her a new home with someone experienced with dogs. Scout is not aggressive, but reactive.
