My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
About Frizz: Frizz is an almost two-year-old Great Pyrenees mix with a gentle heart and a thoughtful nature. Great Pyrenees–type dogs are known for their loyalty, independence, and deep bond with their people, and Frizz carries those traits in a softer, more sensitive package. She can be a bit nervous around new people and unfamiliar situations, but she’s growing more comfortable every day. After recently raising three puppies and doing a wonderful job as a devoted mom, it’s finally her turn to be cared for and spoiled. Frizz enjoys toys, but more than anything, she loves being close to her people—and she’s known to give the sweetest hugs.
Ideal Home: Frizz would do best in a quiet home where life moves at a calmer pace. She’s not a fan of other dogs and would be happiest as the only pet. A large property or big, securely fenced yard in a peaceful neighbourhood would suit her perfectly, as she truly enjoys being outdoors. Frizz hasn’t had much exposure to the wider world, so many things are still new to her. A patient adopter who can take things slow and help build her confidence will see her blossom.
Training and Skills: Frizz knows basic commands and walks nicely on leash. She’s been working on car rides and has made great progress, becoming more comfortable with each trip. She responds best to gentle, steady guidance and positive experiences that help her feel safe.
Favourites: • Being close to her people • Giving hugs • Spending time outside • Gentle play with toys • Quiet, relaxed environments
Dislikes: • Loud or busy environments • Sudden changes or overwhelming situations
How to Adopt: If you’re interested in adopting, please visit us at 107 McLaughlin Road, Lindsay, Tuesday to Sunday 11 am–6 pm, contact us by email info@hskl.ca or phone at 705-878-4618. You can also fill out an application by following the link https://hskl.ca/adopt/dog-application.html and we will contact you shortly.
Keep in mind some of our dogs are in foster care and an appointment will need to be made for meet and greets.
