We are a 100% volunteer based non-profit organization based out of Gimli, MB who rehabilitate and re-home unwanted dogs in Manitoba. We have successfully adopted hundreds of dogs throughout North America. Our dogs are either housed at our sanctuary in Gimli, or in foster homes throughout Manitoba (specifically Winnipeg)

Lakeridge Giant Breed Rescue & Sanctuary's adoption process

Additional adoption info

Being an adoption is completed, the following must occur:

1. We encourage all potential adopters to meet with the dog in person, to see if they feel it will be a good match. We also encourage the rescue dog be introduced to any resident dog ahead of time.
2. An adoption application must be filled out and sent to our adoption coordinator at lakeridgeadoptions@gmail.com.
3. A home check will need to be conducted by one of our volunteers

Once the adoption application has been approved, we can make arrangements for transfer of ownership. The new owner will need to sign an adoption contract as well as submit either a cheque or cash for the adoption fee.

Adoption fees:

Adults: $300 - this includes the spay/neuter, tattoo or microchip, vaccinations and 6 weeks of free pet insurance.

Puppies: $400 - this includes the spay/neuter, tattoo or microchip, vaccinations and 6 weeks of free pet insurance. Once confirmation of completion of spay/neuter has been received, $100 will be transferred back to the adopting family

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
