Story

Meet Huxley – Your Next Adventure Buddy!If you’re looking for a fun-loving, high-energy companion who’s always up for action, Huxley might just be your perfect match! This handsome boy has a wiggly bum, a big smile, and a zest for life that’s absolutely contagious.Huxley loves to run, chase, and play—especially if toys are involved!

He’s strong and athletic, so he’ll do best with someone who enjoys being active and can match his enthusiasm.Huxley does have a bit of a prey drive, so he’d prefer a home without small animals, and he can be reactive around other male dogs—he’s still learning his manners there! But with structure, patience, and positive training, he’s eager to learn and please his people.After all the excitement, Huxley loves to relax with his humans, soaking up affection and giving plenty of tail wags in return.If you’re ready for a loyal, goofy, and spirited adventure partner, Huxley can’t wait to meet you!IN-SHELTER NOTES & IDEAL HOMESIZE:68 lbs.HOME TYPE:House.

Story

Brutus is a big-hearted, big-bodied boy looking for a family to call his own! This handsome large breed mix has a playful, active side — he loves to run, play, and get the zoomies — but what he really loves most is you. Once he feels safe, Brutus turns into a total cuddle bug who melts right into your arms.Having come from the streets, Brutus can be a little nervous in new environments, but with patience and gentle encouragement, his affectionate personality quickly shines through. Because he’s still learning what it means to live in a home, Brutus can be a bit of a shoe thief or get into mischief if left unsupervised — a crate or puppy-proofed space will help set him up for success. He’s looking for an adopter who understands or is willing to learn about working shepherd breeds and their need for exercise, structure, and mental stimulation.IN-SHELTER NOTES & IDEAL HOMESIZE:77 lbs.HOME TYPE:House or Townhouse with no shared entrances (Private exit homes)CHILDREN:Yes- Older dog savvy children.CATS & SMALL ANIMALS:No - has shown some prey drive behaviours.OTHER DOGS:Yes - Potentially compatible with other dogs.

Sebastian is one of 11 siblings born on Family Day. He is a typical little puppy.....eat,.play, poop .sleep (maybe not in that order!). He's a pretty laid back guy who loves to run and wrestle his siblings, then settles down for a snuggle with his foster momma.

He has been dewormed and had his vaccines and microchip, and will come with a voucher for his neuter done at 6 months, at our vet in Woodstock. To facilitate his neuter surgery, adopters must live with half an hour from Woodstock. His adoption fee is $500. You must be 21 years old to adopt and provide vet and personal references.
