My story

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

Lottie is a lovable pup with a heart as big as her smile! She’s the perfect mix of bubbly and cheerful, always ready for some fun and an adventure.

Lottie enjoys going for car rides, playing with her toys, and soaking up attention from her favourite humans. She’s a smart cookie who already knows a few tricks like sit, paw, and down and she’s always eager to learn more, especially when treats are involved!

She can be quite nervous in new situations and needs an understanding adopter who will take things slowly and give her the time she needs to build trust. But once you’re in her circle, she’s incredibly sweet, loyal, and loving. Lottie would thrive in a quiet, calm home with people who will respect her pace and gently help her continue to build confidence. With a little time and a lot of love, she’s sure to become a wonderful companion!

If you`re the kind of person who believes in second chances and seeing shy souls shine, Lottie might be your perfect match. Submit an application and come meet this sweet girl today!

**This dog’s adoption fee has been reduced to help them find their forever home! Applicants will still need to complete our regular adoption process and meet all of this pet’s requirements to be approved**

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!
