Story
Hello my name is AberApproximate age: 2 YearsGender: MaleBreed: very mixed large breedEnergy level: I am a chill laid back pup.Good with kids: yesGood with dogs: yes.Good with cats: yesI have done very well in my foster home. I’m great with other dogs, cats and I absolutely adore the kids. I love to play but I can be the calm in your day, the quiet listener, the loyal friend.I know lots of basic commands such as sit, stay, leave it and come. I’m a very smart boy.I might be a bit reserved initially, but give me a chance to settle in and I`ll show you my playful loving side. I would do best in a quite home with a confident canine sister to show me how much fun being a dog can be. A quiet country home would be my dream come true. I`m looking for a forever home where I can share all the love I have to give. Will you be my new family?

Story
Hello! My name is Ice. I`m a pitty mix but don’t let that scare you, as I am a big suck. I love people! I love kids and get along with other dogs. I want to play with the cats but I`m a big boy. I absolutely love treats. I would do anything for one ... or twenty. I like playing in the snow and being off leash so I would need a fenced yard. I don’t like the leash but I`m learning. I am house trained.

Hi, I’m Steveo!Approximate age: 3 yearBreed: MixedEnergy Level: Medium high Good with Kids: I’m still young and high energy so older kids would be bestGood with Dogs: Need proper introduction. Prefer females.Good with Cats: No. Not really a fan. Love my rabbit buddy thoughHey im Steveo! I`m a sweet, playful, smart, and cuddly guy. I love people, they`re my favorite! I also love car rides, they are the best! And toys, oh, how I love toys! They keep me entertained for hours. But the crate? Nah. I mean, I can go in if necessary but it`s not my thing. I prefer to be out and about, exploring and playing. I`m a good boy sleeping on my bed. I do love to run and play so would do best in a fenced yard.I`m also smart, you know. I can learn new tricks quickly, and I`m always eager to please. Other dogs? I have been okay with females but not a fan of the other boys. Cats? Hard to say. I met one at the vet who I wanted to chase but I am good friends with the rabbit in my home. Really, I`m all about the people. I`m looking for a family who will love me as much as I will love them. I promise to be the best friend you`ve ever had. Adopt me, and let`s start our adventure together!If you would like to meet me and give me a chance . Please fill out the adoption application!

Story
Hello there, I`m Tango. I`m as sweet as sugar and love to cuddle. My playful spirit will fill your home with joy and laughter. I`m friendly with everyone I meet, and my gentle nature makes me a perfect companion for both kids and adults. My energy knows no bounds, and I love to spend it playing games or going for walks. But don`t worry, I`m very passive and I know when it`s time to relax. I`m not just a pet, I`m a friend, a confidante, a source of unconditional love. Adopting me would mean a lifetime of companionship and loyalty. I promise, I`ll make every day brighter with my love and antics.I will need a high, secure fence as I can jump like a thoroughbred and just want to run like the wind!

Story
Hello world I’m Ollie, I’m a Pyrenees gal 4/5yrs old. I love dogs and cats and I’m good with farm animals. I love cuddles and adventures in the great outdoors. My challenging characteristics are that I can be protective of my person and my property and I am extremely selective about the men that I like. It’s very normal for my breed. I do best with another friendly dog that does friendly meet and greets then I want to be friendly too. If you were looking for a pair I met and fell in love with Kuma while in my foster home. He happens to be looking for a home as well. Kuma LOVES people and that makes me want to love them as well (Kuma is available through Fern`s Acres).

Story
Name: Belle AKA BellaBreed: Border collie XSize: MediumDogs: yes I have 2Cats: yes I have 1Kids: I have 1 and recommend kids over the age of 10. Bella is a quiet, thoughtful girl who, once she gets to know you, will be your shadow when you are home. Ideal for a family with older children, she’d be the perfect companion for someone who has time to help build her confidence and continue to ease her out of her shell.Bella loves a good car ride and while not particularly a social butterfly, she really enjoys a good old game of “chase or be chased” at the dog park with the two dogs she currently lives with. To help build her confidence, Bella has been attending doggy daycare, visits to pet friendly stores in the Edmonton region and had begun to join her foster Mom at work. Bella would also make a great companion for another confident dog whom she can learn from.While Bella enjoys sleeping in her kennel overnight, she is free to come and go from it during the day when everyone is working as she is house trained and not destructive. As with most dogs though, she does have a few quirks: She loves to watch TV, moans and groans loudly when settling in at night and flips her food dishes when unsatisfied with the amount of breakfast and dinner. Bella is a beautiful dog who really just wants to feel safe and secure with her family.
