Story

Hello! My name is Allie!I've been waiting patiently for my new family since July 2023. I've been a very good girl - all the staff and volunteers say I'm an awesome dog - and I'm hopeful that my new humans will come along soon to welcome me into their family. I'm a fun and silly girl who loves to play. I'm a big cuddle bug and lap dog. I do have a big girl bark but I'm quite friendly with new people and will give lots of slobbery kisses. I'm not so comfortable with other dogs and would do best as the only pooch in the home. I'm looking forward to joining my new family!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: Yes, mature and older.OTHER DOGS: No, I would be happiest as the only dog.CATS: Potentially. My history with cats is unknown. However with a cat confident and experienced around dog, and a savvy and patient pet owner, I might be able to live with a cat.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I'm looking for someone that has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended. HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings, as I sometimes bark at dogs when they get too close to me.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: No.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium.I'M ON A PRESCRIPTION DIET: No.HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes.If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the "adopt me" button to apply!

Story

Hello! My name is George!I have been staying at the Guelph Humane Society since November 2023. I'm excitedly waiting for my new family to come along and take me home. I am a fun boy who loves training. When I get excited, I can be jumpy. But I'm doing well with training. I know how to sit without even being asked! And I'm learning lots of other cool tricks. I am pretty good at fetch and I love to go for long walks. I would make a fantastic hiking partner!MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: Teenagers could be ok. No small children.OTHER DOGS: Potentially, depending on the dog. I seem to be scared of dogs upon first meeting. Once I warm up, I can be playful but I'm a bit awkward. My GHS friends think I haven't had much experience socializing with other dogs. So it would have to be a very well-socialized and tolerant dog buddy for me.CATS: No, I would likely be too much for a cat.FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I'm looking for someone that has previous dog experience.FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended, unless you live on a country property.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: No apartment buildings.SOMEONE HOME MOST OF THE DAY: Not necessarily, however I may not be the best match for a home where I will be alone a full work day.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-high.I'M ON A PRESCRIPTION DIET: No.HOUSE-TRAINED: Almost!If you think I could be a good match for your home, click the "adopt me" button to apply!

Story

Hello, my name is Valentina!I'm a ball-dog - I love chasing and fetching balls. It's my favorite hobby, followed by pets from my people.

I am looking for a home that will work with me to help that be a more comfortable experience. MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: No young children. Teenagers should be ok.OTHER DOGS: Potentially, a dog of a herding breed might be a good match. I don't seem to be super interested in playing with other dogs.CATS: Potentially, with a cat confident around dogs and who has lived with dogs before. FIRST-TIME DOG OWNERS: No, I would do best with someone who has dog experience. FENCED-IN YARD: Highly recommended.HOUSING ENVIRONMENT: Any, ideally with a yard, however I may not be ideal for apartment life given I do like to bark.
