Oslo can be shy, nervous, and a little vocal when meeting new people but once he is comfortable and after he`s been given a couple treats he becomes super affectionate and will press up against you for all the pets. Oslo also loves to play outside in the snow whether it`s fetch or just running around to burn off energy.

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!
