My story

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

Meet April, a sweet, soft-eyed pup who’s ready for a fresh start this holiday season. Even with winter in the air, April’s gentle spirit brings plenty of warmth wherever she goes. She’s full of love and snuggles and is hoping to find a home that will help her feel her best, one walk, one playful moment, and one happy wiggle at a time!

If you’re looking for a new bestie to share snowy strolls, quiet evenings, and all the magic of the season, April is ready to be your walking buddy, couch co-pilot, and forever friend!

Their adoption process

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!
