My story

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

Meet the gorgeous Jewels! This girl may be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her sweet and affectionate nature shines through. She is still learning to trust the world around her, but with each passing day, she grows braver and more curious, especially with the help of her friends at the shelter. Though she might need a little time to warm up to new people, Jewels is worth every moment of patience. Once she opens up, you`ll discover a gentle soul who loves to “chat” and will happily keep you company with some conversation. Jewels is currently learning her manners and making great progress. She`s eager to learn and would thrive in a calm, understanding home where she can continue to build confidence at her own pace.

If you`re looking for a sweet, sensitive companion to grow and explore life with, Jewels just might be the perfect match. All she needs is a little love and a lot of kindness, and in return, she’ll give you a lifetime of loyalty and affection.

**Jewels has a discounted adoption fee to help find her furrever home! Please note that applicants are still required to follow our adoption process and meet the requirements of this pet in order to be approved to adopt**

Additional adoption info

Come into the Centre and if you see a pet you like, you are able to do a "Meet and Greet" with that pet. Spend some time in alone with the pet or take a dog out for a short walk. If you are still interested in adopting the pet you can meet with one of our Adoption Counsellors who will have you fill out and application and will ask you some questions about the environment in which you live. If you seem like a wonderful match and your envirnoment meets the needs of the pet then your application should be approved!
