Story
Meet Pal! This young dog is looking for a quiet home with an active lifestyle. His ideal match would be an active single person who is not away from home for extended periods of time.Pal loves human companionship, but it does take him some time to trust and warm up to any kind of physical touch. Loud noises also tend to stress him out, and this is why a quiet environment but active lifestyle is ideal for Pal. He would also benefit greatly from having a social dog in his home who can match his playful energy, but also help him to build confidence and feel safe.If you are looking for a walking companion, look no further than Pal! He loves adventures and will have his nose to the ground the entire time! Any walk that allows him the opportunity to dip his toe beans in water are his favourite! A rural home in a quiet neighbourhood would be the best fit for this little guy, as he is a little nervous and reactive around busy traffic. Walks are a very integral part of Pal`s needs to stay in balance and as a high energy/anxiety dog, Pal is currently on Trazadone and Fluoxetine twice a day to help him regulate his emotions and reactivity. These are supports that Pal will need for life, in combination with lots of activity to be at his best and to feel his best as well.A fully fenced yard is an absolute must for Pal. Invisible or agricultural (hedges) will not be suitable for him.Pal is exceptionally clean and well-mannered in the home. He has no destructive behaviours, and is fully crate trained. Pal enjoys sharing toys while at play with another dog, but he has shown guarding tendencies with humans, so this will be something that has to be carefully monitored.We would not recommend Pal for a home with cats as he does like to chase and bark a them. We also feel that a kid-free environment is a must for Pal, and if his forever home has visitors, he should be crated as he could quickly become overwhelmed with a lot of noise and unusual activity.Pal is currently eating a wet food diet, and he enjoys liver treats as well. The true way to Pal`s heart is to allow him a lot of time and space to feel safe before expecting too much from him. While he does love to be loved, it seems like he may have experienced some trauma and is very unsure of new people. His adopter will need to understand that he will need time and patience to feel safe and build his confidence before he will show his softer side.As a hypoall

Story
Meet Wilbur! At 2.5 years of age, this happy, bouncy boy has lots of energy to spare. Wilbur is looking for a forever home with a fully secured yard as he is a dog we would consider to be a flight risk. Additionally, Wilbur is incredibly dog social and we feel it would be of great benefit for him to have another dog or dogs in his forever home to take behavioural cues from and to help him with his energy and socialization. At this time, both of these criteria are must haves for his forever family.Wilbur is currently sharing his foster home with a cat as well, and while he has shown no aggression, his playful and curious nature is best suited for a cat who is dog savvy. A nervous or skittish cat would likely not be a good fit with Wlibur.Wilbur loves everyone, although he can be a little more standoffish with male energy and it may take him more time to feel confident around men when there is not also a female present. He would be a great family dog in a home with older kids who are respectful and well mannered with animals. Wilbur is not crate trained and has been fine left on his own without restriction. He has shown no signs of separation anxiety or destructive behaviours whatsoever. He does enjoy his walks and his Foster family finds that he does very well using a harness and he does enjoy his walks. As a higher energy dog, he does required regular exercise and adding yard play and playtime with another canine would be the ultimate trifecta for keeping him in balance!Wilbur is not a fan of car rides. Short trips to the groomer or vet can be managed, but he would likely feel anxious and a little uncomfortable on long drives.Wilbur shows no signs of guarding food, toys or treats, but he can be a little jealous and possessive over love and affection. There is no aggression in his game, but he can be a little pushy when he wants to steal his human`s attention! As a dog who loves nothing more than a good cuddle session, he really enjoys co-sleeping with his humans, but is also happy to give lots of space once everyone has settled in for the night. Wilbur is definitely looking for a family who will meet his need for love, affection and cuddle time, and in return they will have a lifelong beloved companion who wants nothing more than to love and be loved!
