Story
Meet sweet lil Huckleberry!This goofy boy cannot wait to find his furever home and be your companion! Huckleberry did come to us as a stray so we don't have much of a history on him. We have learned about him since he's been in our centre and in a foster home. He does very well with the foster's big dogs and loves to play with them! Housetraining will need to be worked on with him, and the foster reports that he is catching on very quickly. Training Huckleberry will be a breeze since he's so food motivated and eager to please! Positive Reinforcement training will for sure help him thrive and be the best dog that he can be. He's learning to walk on a leash and not just hold it in his mouth, and he is quite easy to redirect with a toy. If Huckleberry sounds like a good match for you, send us an application!

Story
Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na-Na...Batman!Meet Batman - your future sidekick in the quest for unconditional love! This sweet guy may not be the fearless crime-fighter his name suggests, but with time, patience, and plenty of positive reinforcement, he'll surely rise to the occasion and become your loyal companion.Batman is a nervous guy who needs a calm, understanding home where he can build his confidence and feel safe. New experiences can be a bit overwhelming for him, so he'll need a gentle person to guide him through life's adventures. He's not sure how to walk on a leash yet, but with time, he'll learn how to take on the world one step at a time (with you by his side, of course!).Batman would prefer to be the sole pet in your home. However, he may be open to dog friends with slow introductions to dog social dogs. This little hero is looking for a family that's ready to be his Batman and Robin - offering him all the love, positivity, and patience he needs to feel safe and secure. Are you ready to help Batman discover that the world isn't as scary as it seems? He's waiting for his forever home to help him unleash his full potential.With your love and care, Batman will soon be ready to protect your heart - no cape required! ♥ Primary Color: Grey Secondary Color: Chocolate Weight: 27.1 Age: 1yrs 6mths 0wks

She loves going for long walks with her pup friends. Lady really enjoys other dogs. She grew up in a home with another dog and cats. She also grew up with young kiddos.She is very vocal when she wants your attention, and would do better in a home and not an apartment. She will require regular grooming as she is quite long and thick coated. When Lady is settled down and relaxed, she really enjoys love and affection with belly rubs!
