Story
Please say hello to Mr. Nash! Nash is an approx. 6-year-old mixed breed boy who came to us from Moose Factory. This handsome boy is as sweet as he is striking, super cuddly, affectionate, and happiest when hes soaking up love from his people. Nash has made wonderful progress with his house training and continues to improve each day. Hes crate trained (especially if there are treats involved!) and settles in nicely at night. On leash, hes enthusiastic and may pull when excited to see other dogs or animals (squirrels!), but with continued guidance hell keep getting better. He also rides calmly in the car and is a gentleman at the vet. Because Nash can be protective of treats and toys around other dogs, hes best suited as the only dog in the household. He has also shown some guarding behaviors with children when high-value items are involved, so hell thrive in a home without kids or with older, dog-savvy children. Nash hasnt been tested with cats, though he did show a little too much interest in them during a vet visit, so a cat-free home is recommended. Nash will thrive in a home where he can be the center of attention as the only dog, with no cats or small animals. Hell do best with adults or older, dog-savvy kids who understand the need to give him space around high-value items. What Nash really needs is a family committed to continuing his training and helping him feel secure. With consistency and love, hes sure to blossom into the loyal, affectionate companion hes meant to be. His foster family describes Nash as a cuddly, special boy who cant get enough of belly rubs and neck scratches. He adores his people and happily soaks up every bit of attention he can get. Nash spends much of his day lounging outdoors and is always up for a walk or an adventure. With his affectionate personality and love for the outdoors, Nash is sure to bring warmth, joy, and companionship to the right home.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Juniper  Part of our Emergency Christmas Crew, Juniper is a Mastiff x Rottweiler mix (with maybe a little Beagle spice) born September 4, 2025. This sweet girl was fostered with her brother Dasher and has proven to be incredibly social with both people and dogs. Juniper truly thrives on companionship, and we believe she would do best in a home with other canine friends to play with and learn from. She has done wonderfully with cats, kids, adults, and dogs of all sizes and ages—a confident, happy puppy who loves being part of the action. Juniper is crate trained, working on leash and house manners, and doing very well for her age with only the occasional puppy accident. She loves adventures and exercise but is equally happy being a snuggle bug. She also appears to be the brightest of the litter, often being the first to pick up on commands and training, making her a fantastic candidate for continued learning and formal training. As a large-breed puppy, Juniper is expected to grow into a big girl, and her future family will need to be committed to ongoing formal training and continued socialization to help her grow into a well-mannered, confident adult dog. If you’re looking for a smart, social, loving pup who would thrive with a canine companion, Juniper may be the perfect addition to your family  For more information on their backstory, check out their welcome post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/17nfLJ7gtm/?mibextid=wwXIfr Apply to adopt and give this Christmas girl the forever home she deserves: https://www.hankshaven.ca/info/adoption #EmergencyChristmasCrew #PuppyForAdoption #AdoptOrShopResponsiblyVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 13, 2026, 6:36 pm
