My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little pup was put on the kill list at the shelter because she was jumpy and exciteable with the shelter staff when they'd come to take her out of her kennel for some fresh air. She's just a happy puppy, who was eager for attention and a chance to play! Once we got her out, it became clear that she's an absolute treasure. She's bubbly and playful, but also well-balanced and calm, not at all hyper. Bright and engaged, she's going to LOVE training and learning new things and having a full, active lifestyle. She would be a wonderful candidate for service-dog work.

Good in her crate, housebroken, not destructive, good on a leash...we haven't known her for long but so far, everything we've seen of her has been wonderful. No negatives to report.

This angel needs somewhere to land in Ontario, either a foster or forever home. If you're interested in getting to know her better, you can find an application for either fostering or adopting on our Facebook page.

Their adoption process

1.
Submit Application

People can submit an adoption application

2.
Interview

First we do reference checks, THEN we do a full 1 to 1.5 hr interview with the applicant

3.
Home Check

Home checks used to be done in person but lately we do a zoom walk through of the home, checking especially the backyard and crate set up

4.
Meet the Pet

If the dog is here in Canada they can do a meet and greet to finalize that they are in fact who they say they are and a good match

5.
Approve Application

we would send an email approving the adopter (or declining if they aren't approved)

6.
Sign Adoption Contract

We would send the adoption contract which they would fill out and send back.

7.
Pay Fee

They would transfer the adoption fee to cover transport costs and vetting of the dog. Then they would come pick up the dog from the foster.

Additional adoption info

No other additional information. Some of our dogs are adopted as soon as they come up on a "foster-to-adopt" trial period to ensure the perfect match.

More about this rescue

We rescue dogs off of death row from the Texas kill shelters and help rehome stray dogs from dumping grounds that have clearly been neglected or abused.
