Story
Frodo is a 7-year-old Siberian Husky with the soul of a wise king. Unlike your typical husky, this distinguished gentleman prefers quiet strolls through nature, long naps, and calmly observing the world around him like the noble ruler he is. Very little ruffles his feathers, and his wonderfully expressive face always lets you know exactly what he's thinking (usually something dignified and mildly judgmental).If you're looking for a calm, handsome companion with majestic energy and impeccable manners, Frodo may just be your perfect match.Interested in meeting this dapper boy for yourself? Visit the Midland and District Animal Centre between 11-5! Have another dog at home? Bring them along for a meet-and-greet to see if they become loyal companions on Frodo's noble journey.

Story
We are looking for the right home for our sweet Sailor girl. This has been a very difficult decision, but with young children and a busy household, we are not able to provide the level of exercise, structure, and attention she truly needs, and we know she deserves more. She is a Husky/Shepherd mix, turning 5 on September 6th. She is approximately 100 lbs, affectionate, and great with kids and other animals. She is food motivated, enjoys being around people, and thrives on attention. She would do best in an active home that can provide regular exercise and continued leash training. We are not in a rush and are committed to finding the best possible fit for her. A rehoming fee will apply, and we will be asking a few questions to ensure a good match. Please message me if you are interested and can offer her a loving, active home.

Story
Winter is a beautiful 4-year-old Husky with a gentle soul and a heart full of devotion. Shes the kind of dog who forms a deep bond with her person and simply wants to be by your side through lifes quiet, everyday moments. This lovely girl is calm for a Husky, with a medium-to-low energy level. She enjoys her walks (and walks beautifully on leash!) and a bit of playtime, but shes just as happy coming home to relax, nap, and soak up affection. Shes incredibly smart, eager to please, and picks up on routines quickly. Winter is wonderful with peoplemen, women, and respectful children over 6and has a soft, gentle way about her. She plays nicely, loves attention, and will quietly step away if things get a little too busy. Shes also friendly and well-mannered with other dogs. At home, Winter is a dream companion. Shes house-trained with only occasional, easily managed accidents, and she shows you she needs out by pacing. Shes not destructive and can be left alone uncrated for short periods, where shell calmly wait for your return. Crates, however, are not for hershe finds them very stressfulso shes looking for a home where she can have the freedom to feel safe and settled. Winter does experience separation anxiety and would thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time and is willingto continue working on building her confidence when alone. In return, she offers unwavering loyalty, constant companionship, and the sweetest little habitslike her happy dance at mealtime. If youre looking for a loving, mellow, and deeply devoted companion who will follow you from room to room and always be close by, Winter is ready to be your shadow, your snuggle buddy, and your best friend. Our adoption fees cover all up to date veterinary needs, including but not limited to: full veterinary examination, age appropriate vaccinations, fecal test and parasite prevention, wellness bloodwork, spay or neuter, and microchip. All dogs will be started on a 6 week trial of pet insurance after adoption. Local adopters can take advantage of 50% off a training course at RuffHaus in Barrie (www.ruffhaus.ca) and all adopters will also be signed up for Petcademy to offer 30 days of free text-based behavioural support.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Let us reintroduce Laz (Adoption Fee WAIVED) Lazarus joined us in February 2025 alongside his littermate, Otis, after being rescued from a neglectful home. Some of their siblings went to Mattie’s Place  —and every one of them has found a home… except for Laz Laz is truly a great dog. Like many dogs who didn’t get the structure and socialization they needed early on, he can be fearful and a bit unsure of new people. He does have some “stranger danger,” but with proper introductions (and a few treats!), he warms up every single time Since being in foster, Laz has been putting in the work! He completed a tricks class at Nordik K9 and attends daycare at KNine Care weekly to continue building his confidence and social skills—and he’s been doing amazing. Laz is looking for a dog-savvy adopter who understands that building trust takes time. In return, you’ll get an incredibly smart, deeply loyal companion. A quieter home would suit him best—something low traffic without lots of people coming and going. He could do well with a calm, neutral dog of similar or larger size, or as your one-and-only. No cats for Laz—he will chase. His adoption fee has been waived  We know Laz will need a committed adopter willing to continue his training and help him keep growing into the dog we know he can be.
