One of the most important things we can give our Pets is "Time". The time to love them, care for them, and train them. Animal Shelters and Humane Societies across the country are filled with Pets whose families didn't have "Time". Every year, the "Time is up" for 12 million companion Pets. Do you have the "Time" to make a difference? For
adoption inquiries phone

LARGE CRATES NEEDED URGENTLY!
We have recently been averaging over 50 dogs in rescue at a single time and
our foster home base is really expanding. Never a shortage of dogs to fill it
with... We are completely out of large dog crates and we are in DESPERATE need
of some to accommodate our increasing numbers. If anyone has a crate they wish
to donate, please phone 204-573-8333. Drop off donations can also be left at
Pet Valu in the Corral Center!
HIGH
NEED FOR CAT FREE FOSTER HOMES!
We have recently wound up with a number of rescue dogs in boarding which are
not good with cats. Many of these dogs are seeking virtual
foster homes and they will spend more time that our dogs usually spend in
boarding, simply because we do not have a large number of foster homes which
are cat free. We always need foster homes of
all kinds, but right now we do have an increased need for cat free
foster homes...

MILO - DOBERMAN X GOLDEN RETRIEVER (NEUTERED)
Milo is an adult Doberman mix we rescued from the Brandon City Pound. Upon tracing his tattoo, we discovered he is a 4 year old dog, who is in fact listed as a Golden Retriever mix... It's hard to believe, but yes - it's true! Milo was owner surrendered and was very scared the first day he arrived at the pound. After some time in his foster home, his true colors have really shone though. Milo is a sweet, happy boy. His greatest love is children. He is crate broken, housetrained, and can do some tricks. He is very excited to see anyone at all, but is protective of his family around strangers. We have found this can be problematic if he is allowed loose on a farm or acerage, as Milo will protect the property and his people from people he does not know. He loves his foster mom's dog and would do well in a home with other dogs. Milo does not like cats! He doesn't chase the cows, but he has not been around horses. He is happiest with his people. He will run for miles, or sleep at your feet. This fellow loves to play and he really enjoys playing fetch - but hasn't gotten all the rules down just yet. Milo spent some time with a trainer and his obedience was coming along very well - he really enjoys the fun of learning and working with people. Milo can jump very high, so if in the city, he would need a really high fence or a means of being supervised outdoors. Milo doesn't bark to hear his own voice and is very quiet in the house. He would do well in a home with children of any age. (Indoor Home Only!)
Please note: While our dogs are normally only fostered in Southwestern Manitoba, Milo has been an exception. Due to unforseen circumstances, he spent a fair amount of time in boarding and he was able to find a foster home in Winnipeg. Please ask if you have questions about his adoption!

"I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry. "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"
God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly.
I have done something," He replied. "I created you."
~Jim WillisIf you are not a part of the solution then you are adding to the problem.
