Story
  Dog’s Name: Bandit Breed: Collie mix Weight: 30kg Gender: Male Spayed/neutered: yes Age: 2yrs Reason for Intake: brought in as a stray Medical (shots etc): up to date, DHPP, Bordatella and Rabies Good with dogs: selective, better with females. Was introduced to two small whippets and was great with them, was also good with a large female dog but can be very reactive on leash. Good with cats: no Good with kids: unsure Good with strangers: yes Guarding issues: Not that has been noted during time at the shelter Ever bitten a human: Not that we are aware of Ever bitten a dog: Not that we are aware of Behavioural issues: reactive on leash to dogs House trained: Yes Crate trained: unsure Destructive when left alone: unsure, not destructive in kennel Barks when left alone: unsure- will settle in kennel Leash skills: Handling issues: None Known commands: sit, down, shake Food on now: science diet adult Medical issues: none Personality, likes/dislikes: Bandit is very friendly with people and super smart. He really loves to work on training and is very food motivated. He is reactive on leash with dogs, better with female dogs. He dislikes cats, so no small animals in his new home would be best. Best home scenario: Bandit is a very high energy intelligent dog who would do best in an active family willing to give him the exercise and mental stimulation he needs. Someone involved in dog sports would be ideal for him based on what we have seen at the shelter and how much he enjoys his time training. He has met a couple dogs at the shelter that he was great with but can be very selective with his dog friends.November 6, 2026, 11:24 am

Story
Ivera | F | 6 years old| 80lbs| Kid-friendly!| GTA Ivera is WOW with a side of OMG. She's the most amazing dog and pretty much everyone who meets her wishes they could adopt her! She's the most chill and gentle girl, and a true people person. When she meets someone new, she will roll onto her back, rest her paw on their chest, and invite them to give her a belly rub. She's all friendliness, all trust, and all affection. A social butterfly. Ivera is also an incredibly good and well-behaved dog. She walks well on leash, she's good in the car, she waits patiently at the door to go out. She is fully housetrained and not a barker. She loves backyard time, belly rubs, cuddles, and people! She's non-reactive to other animals but her heart really lies with humans and she loves to be part of the group. When she gets a little extroverted out, she'll take herself away for some quiet time. She loves children and would love to be a dog sibling to a kid. This amazingness of this dog can't be overstated. She's so full of love, friendliness, and fun! She's the kind of storybook companion that you'd find in a children's book: loyal, loving, friendly, and calm. If you can give her her happy ending, please apply at the link: https://form.jotform.com/pawsacrossthewater/adoption-application

Hello, This is our dog Molly. Molly is 7 years old and a energetic, loving and playful dog. We have had he since she was 3 months old, since then we have had 2 children and aren't unable to give Molly the attention she deserves. We have made the hard decision to put Molly up for adoption to a person or family that can give her the attention she deserves so she can be happier. Molly has no issues, she is house trained, great with animals and kids, and also very affectionate.

Story
Hi there, I’m Firefly!I arrived at GHS in May 2026 as a stray. My history is unknown but what is known is that I`m a fun boy with a charming personality! I`m not getting much adoption interest and I`m not sure why. I`m a very hard working guy and don`t people want free labor? Not only will I not charge you, but I pay rent in kisses and snuggles. I hope you don`t mind 73 pounds on your lap.I will do almost anything you ask as long as you show me a couple times how to do it first. The humans here call the other dogs smart but I`m next level smart and catch on to new instructions faster than you can give them. Isn`t that what people want? Yes, I am energetic and I do like to work, which means I am happiest when I have a job to do but that job can be anything, even lying on a mat when you`d like to relax. As long as you are willing to put in some effort and training, I will be the best buddy you could ask for.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be fine but no young kids.OTHER DOGS: Yes, I enjoy running around and enjoying the company of friendly dogs.CATS: No, given my prey drive.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: Someone with dog and or herding breed experience would be most ideal.FENCED-IN YARD: Required, to help meet energy needs. Rural, un-fenced, would also be excellent!HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any with a yard (unless rural).SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-High.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you are interested in adopting me, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!FOSTER ME! I`m excited to be selected as part of the Paisley Project and I`m looking for a foster home! If your home environment matches what I`m looking for based on the information above, please consider applying to foster me. The Paisley Project aims to match selected, long-stay animals at GHS with fosters that can provide a home that gradually introduces them to the everyday experiences of life as a pet. Fosters will offer the routine, structure and stability needed to help get animals ready for their new family. Learn more & apply at guelphhumane.ca/the-paisley-project

Story
Hi, my name’s Magpie!I arrived at GHS in July 2026. I`m known for my sweet nature and how affectionate I am once we get to know each other, though I do typically avoid strangers at first and can remain a bit on edge with new people in my home. Once I love my people, I really love my people, and that means I may bark when you try to approach them. With positive training, I`ve already shown nice progress in this area. My favourite activity is sniffing around and following my nose—there`s so much to explore! I`m looking for a forever home where I can share all the love I have; I would love to join a calm and relaxed family that will patiently build their bond with me.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…CHILDREN: Teenagers should be fine, no young children as I do have a timid side.OTHER DOGS: No, I don`t enjoy sharing with other dogs and that makes it difficult for me to live with them, however I don`t mind having some calm dog friends for walks or short, managed visits.CATS: No, I would like to be the only pet and get all the attention.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Not necessarily.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.SPECIAL DIET: Yes, I’m on a hypoallergenic diet.MEDICATIONS: Yes, I take a daily oral medication to help with my itching.If you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!FOSTER ME!

Story
Hey there, my name is Bond!WHAT YOU’LL LOVE ABOUT ME…- I’m already doing well with my house-training and rarely have accidents if I`m taken out regularly.- I enjoy playing with other dogs.- I love toys and don`t seem to be too mouthy of a pup, but if I do start using my mouth, I redirect well to a toy.- I am a very good boy and doing well with training. I love when my humans praise me and tell me how good I am.MY NEW FAMILY SHOULD…- Know that I am nervous when people raise their hands or reach for my collar.- Provide me with lots of durable toys since I like to chew up stuffies.- Understand that I will need crate training to go slow if you plan to do it since currently I get upset and bark if confined.- Be prepared for a large dog since it`s unknown how big I will be once fully grown.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES…- CHILDREN: Teenagers should be fine, but no young children since I can be sensitive about people`s movements.- OTHER DOGS: Yes, with a dog who will enjoy the energy of a puppy.- CATS: Potentially, with a cat who is confident around dogs and won`t be overwhelmed by a puppy.- FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: I would do best with someone who has dog experience and can read my body language to know if I`m nervous.- FENCED-IN YARD: Not required. But a safe space to run would be great to help burn some energy.- HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No environments where noise is a concern since I sometimes bark when my humans leave.- SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: I would benefit from a home where I won`t be left for a full work day yet.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME…- ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-high.- HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes but expect some accidents as I adjust. Frequent outings and praise will keep things on the right track.If you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!
