Hello! I'm Carly!
Adoption Status:   AVAILABLE
Spayed Female | Yellow Lab X | Size: Medium (45 lbs)
Date of Birth: August 2011
Good with Dogs? Yes, I am fostered with other dogs; however, I can be picky about my canine friends and would do best with a dog who lets me be the boss.
Good with Cats? Yes
​Good with Kids?  Yes
About my Personality:
​I am a sweet and gentle soul, who has great house manners.  I am also crate trained too.  I am fostered on an acreage and I stick close by without fuss.  I can get a bit possessive of my food bowl & would be best fed separately.  I tend to be the boss around other dogs so if I have canine companions, they must be okay with me pushing my weight around sometimes.
How’s my Health?  I tested positive for Lyme disease a little while ago and I have recently developed some spinal arthritis with some bouts of periodic lameness.  I may need some help managing my pain with your veterinarian.  I also had tick paralysis, but I am back on my feet but I do walk with a bit of an unusual gait.  

I'm Orchid!
Adoption Status:   AVAILABLE
  Spayed Female | Malinois X | Size: Large (50 lbs)
Date of Birth: September 2009
Good with Dogs? Yes, but not another dominant dog like me
Good with Cats?  Yes
Good with Kids?  Yes, older kids, please
About my Personality:
​I am a smart, well-mannered girl, with great house manners & can even be trusted loose.  But I will also use a crate if needed.  I like to be queen when it comes to other dogs, so I will butt heads with another strong personality like mine.  I'd do just fine being an only dog too.  I had a little trouble adjusting to being back in rescue (I was adopted as a puppy) but I am doing much better now!  You should read up on the Malinois breed before meeting me, I can be protective of my people & show a lot of my breed's traits.  I would flourish best under the care of an experienced dog handler.  I'm good if you want to stay in and watch TV or go for a long hike!
How’s my Health?   I have recently been diagnosed with Stage  1 kidney disease (my creatine levels are still in the normal range but have increased slightly).  I am still very athletic and active....a real zest for life!

Hello! I'm Sonia!
Adoption Status:   AVAILABLE
Spayed Female | Lab/Husky X | Size: Large (60 lbs)
Date of Birth: January 2014
Good with Dogs? Yes, I need a home with another dog
Good with Cats? No
Good with Kids?  Yes
About my Personality:
​Can we be friends?    I am fostered on an acreage, and I stay close by especially with my canine friends.  Sometimes, I don't want to go inside so you may need to bribe me with treats!  I do love being outside, but my foster home has me come in at night and when there’s bad weather outside.  I have good manners inside, I am crate-trained but can also be left loose.  I walk well on leash and I am an excellent passenger in the car!  Do you have the patience to let me get to know you?  I will need a dog experienced home to help me stay balanced.  Sometimes I make decisions on my own, and can be wary of strangers so please help me build trust in you to control my environment so I don't make those bad decisions anymore.  I can be quite shy, especially when we first meet, so my future home will need to be patient with me and make sure to keep me secure until I begin to trust them.  I would not do well in a home in town so the rescue will be looking to find me a farm home.

Hey there, I'm Reba!
Adoption Status:   AVAILABLE
Spayed Female |Shepherd X | Size: Large (60 lbs)
Date of Birth: September 29, 2015 
Good with Dogs? Yes, with proper introduction and time to adjust, I do better with dogs my own size
Good with Cats? No
​Good with Kids?  Yes, I tend to walk up to them and wait for them to pet me
About my Personality:
I’ve settled nicely into my foster home and really love being part of a family.  I love meeting new people and going to new places.  I have been on a few long car rides and love that too.  I just sit quietly and take it all in.  I’ve also been to doggie daycare and am very comfortable playing with lots of other dogs.  However, I am a girl with a complicated relationship with some dogs.  I would do very well as the only dog in the home, but do get along with other dogs with just the right personality to fit my own.   I really like going for walks and just pull a little at times.  I’m a really sweet girl.  People love petting and hugging me and I like the attention.  I like spending time outside and don’t mind just hanging out on my own and quietly watching things that are going on.  I’m a quiet girl inside too and have really good house manners.  I am totally house trained  and can be trusted alone in the house.  I will just nap until you come back.  I am also crate trained and still like hanging out inside my crate. My foster mom says that I’m really easy to have around. 
How’s my Health?  I am healthy – have a minor heart murmur but not likely to impact my overall health.  Annual vet visits are recommended just to ensure that things aren’t changing.

Hello, I'm Luna!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Spayed Female | Black Lab X | Size: Medium (46 lbs)
Date of Birth: August 12, 2017
Good with Dogs? Yes, will need a home with another dog
Good with Cats? Yes
Good with Kids?   I am a shy girl but have a cuddly side when I am comfortable with my human friends.  I would be fine with older kids as loud noises and fast movement might startle me initially.
About my Personality:
​Hello, I’m Luna.  I was brought into safety by BALA (Brandon and Area Lost Animals) after I was running around the countryside by myself.   I am housetrained and kennel trained!  I’m still pretty unsure around new people and new situations and prefer to be approached softly and slowly. I am slowly starting to approach on my own, but so far, it’s baby steps for me.  I have stolen so many hearts, and whenever I attend a Meet and Greet, I always has lots of visitors stop &  pet me gently. I lack confidence when out in the big wide world, and am very much a homebody who gives her heart to the people she trusts.  I am working on my leash skills and this is a work in progress.  I'll cuddle up with you on the couch or in bed, I'll even sleep right on your chest! I follow the leads of the other dogs in my foster home so it would be best for me to have a home with another canine friend, plus I love to play with them!
How’s my Health?  I am healthy.  I have recently started to take medication to help me progress even further and the rescue is already seeing small steps forward!

Hello, I'm Hurley!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE!
Neutered Male | Husky X | Size: Medium (40 lbs)
Date of Birth:  October 17, 2017
Good with Dogs? Yes
Good with Cats? No
Good with Kids? Yes, but I might be a bit much for toddlers!
About my Personality:
Hey, I’m Hurley!  I am a fun-loving, curious boy who loves everything about life!  Wanna cuddle?  My favourite!  Wanna walk?  Yes, please!  Wanna wrestle?  You betch’ya!  I am a pretty well-mannered dog, so my foster parents tell me.  I have great manners in the house (no accidents!) and I am crate trained when they leave.  Toss a treat in and I’ll go happily.  I listen very well to redirection but sometimes you will have to remind me.   I would love a buddy to play with!  Currently, my foster mom has signed me up to go to doggy daycare and I always come home happy and sometimes covered in dog slobber.  I love people of all ages, and I am fostered with teenage boys, but I can be a bit mouthy when playing so maybe smaller kids might find me a bit too much.  I am a bit of a puller on leash and I get very excited when I see other dogs out walking, but I just really, really want to play.  This will take some work on my humans part to show me how to walk peacefully on leash.  I enjoy sky raisins (or as my foster mom calls them “flies”) and will happily stalk them around the house.  I also enjoy chasing butterflies, bubbles and will keep your patio free of ants.  I am lovable, & dorky, with a streak of mischievousness!
How’s my Health?  I came into rescue with demodex, a skin condition that made my fur fall out.  I no longer have any bald spots. My fur is super soft...everyone says so when they pet me!

My Name is Nestle!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Female | Mixed Breed | Size: Medium (40 lbs)
Date of Birth: November 22, 2012
Good with Dogs? Read below
Good with Cats? Read below
Good with Kids? Yes
About my Personality:
Hello, I'm Nestle.  I am the mom of the Chocolate Pups who have all been adopted.  I had to wait to find my forever home because I tested positive for heartworm.  I have completed my treatment and the vet has said that I have beaten it.  I will need a couple more retests and the rescue will help my new home with them.  I was fostered with other dogs and cats, and while I've never hurt anyone, I do startle and react when one wanders too close to me or I don't see them approaching.  I would love a home where I don't have to worry about any other critter sneaking up on me.  I likely had to fight to protect myself and my babies from other animals in the past.  Add to this, I have some vision problems that affect how I see things.  Perhaps I don't see as well as I used to and this makes it hard for me to relax around the other animals.  I enjoy going for walks and I love to cuddle with my favourite people!   I have good housemanners and good left loose in the house.  I don't really like the crate at all as I had to spend so much time on kennel rest during heartworm treatment.   I sure hope someone has a forever home for me where I can finally relax, be myself and lets me soak up all the cuddles and affection!  Do you have a warm soft spot for me to enjoy all the good things life has to offer?
How’s my Health?  See above.  I will be scheduled to be spayed early in the New Year.

My Name is Licorice!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Spayed Female | Black Lab X | Size: Medium (30 lbs*) 
Date of Birth: January 16, 2018
Good with Dogs?  Yes, but no small dogs
Good with Cats?  No
Good with Kids?  Yes
About my Personality:
Pleased to meet you, I’m Licorice!  I’m a young girl learning all about how to be a great companion for you.  My foster mom says that I have been learning things really quick.  I am pretty good already in my crate and only had a couple of bathroom oopsies in my first week at my foster home.  I get pretty excited at times so forget to hold it but I’m pretty sure that given just a little more time, I won’t have any more accidents.  When I had my first bath, I was a little freaked out and then realized that I was fine and calmed down.  I’m learning the whole leash thing but with how quick I’m picking up things, I don’t anticipate any issues.  I heard thunder and no one else thought it was a big deal so I didn’t let it bother me.  I was a little pushy at doggie daycare on my first day and then I figured things out and I just played lots.  And when it was time to meet the neighbor dog, I was super polite!  Oh and I’m a bit of a shadow dog….yep, my foster mom goes into someplace she calls the bathroom and I just want to follow her and then I lay down if I’m tired and wait until she goes somewhere else.  I really don’t mind laying on the floor as long as I’m close to my human.  But I am a young girl so have lots to learn.  I promise to try really hard to be your best friend.

My Name is Jenga!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Neutered Male | Black Lab X | Size: Medium (23 lbs*) 
Date of Birth: March 24, 2018
Good with Dogs?  Yes
Good with Cats?  Not really, I do like to chase them sometimes.  I do correct, but it might be best if I go to a home with no cats.
Good with Kids?  Yes, but I am a busy boy and I might be too much with little kids
About my Personality:
Hello!  I’m Jenga!  I am a sweet little boy with a real zest for life, and some ants in my pants too!  I am an active and busy boy who loves to explore, play, and just plain keep busy.  I’d love a home that shares my zest for life!  I’m very sweet, and love to be around people.  When my foster mom is out and about in the yard, I like to keep her company.  I’m fostered with other dogs, and sometimes I can come on a little strong when trying to get them to play with me, but now that they are used to me, we’re all good.   I’m a young, smart boy who will liven up your day with my sunny personality.  Adventures?  I would love to be your adventure buddy!  
*We feel it would be best for Jenga to have a home with a secure fence.
How’s my Health?  I am healthy.
*may reach 30-40 lbs as an adult.  This is an estimate, not a guarantee!

We're Abby & Scout...
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Abby:  Spayed Female | Chihuahua X | Size: Small (5 lbs)
Date of Birth: August 27, 2006
Scout: Neutered Male | Chihuahua X | Size: Small (12 lbs)
Date of Birth: November 17, 2006
Good with Dogs? Yes
Good with Cats? Yes
Good with Kids?   Yes, but would do best with no kids or older kids
About our Personalities:
​Abby and Scout are very bonded and will need a home together.  They came into rescue with overgrown nails, bad teeth and carrying a little baggage.  We got them all fixed up but they’re still a little cautious with new people and new situations.  They have come so far in their foster home and they adore their foster parents but it did take a little time for them to trust again.  They’re starting to share a little lap time with them every now but they’re not overly cuddly, except with each other!   Scout is the most reserved between the two.  He is quite content with a spot on the couch to snooze away the day.  But he does really like to go for a run around the yard too!  Maybe he likes the way the grass tickles his tummy!  Abby is more accepting of pets and loves to give kisses.  She is pretty tiny and needs stairs to get up to her spot on the couch beside Scout.  Scout can be protective of Abby and both of them have taken a bit of time to warm up to being picked up with both showing some reluctance.  Both dogs enjoy going potty outside when the weather is nice but both are also pee pad trained when it’s cold or wet outside.  Neither dog responds well to being leashed and are not trained at this time to go for a walk.  We would love a home for the two of them where they can unpack their bags and settle in to a happily ever after with a cozy spot on the couch.
How’s our Health?  We are healthy.  We both had a lot of extractions during our dental and we don’t have a lot of teeth left.  We had full physicals when we came into rescue.

Hello! I'm Reed!

About my Personality:
​Hey, I’m Reed.  I’m brand new to rescue and just getting settled in.  I am a rather unique looking boy….maybe an aussie mix, or a heeler mix….or a Catahoula mix?  Whatever the case, I am 100% adorable.  I am a spunky boy with so much potential!  Watch for updates as I get to know my foster parents!

My Name is Dudley!
Adoption Status:  AVAILABLE
Neutered Male | Pyrenees X Heeler | Size: XL (90 lbs)
Date of Birth: October 30, 2016 
Good with Dogs? Yes
Good with Cats? I saw a cat at the pound and I was curious but non-reactive, so proper intro to cats, please!
​Good with Kids?  Yes
About my Personality:
Hello, I’m Dudley!  I am a pretty chilled out kinda guy who likes to take things at my own pace.  I am learning what the leash is all about and sometimes I hit the brakes if I’m not too sure what’s going on but I am getting better all the time.  I am doing well in the house, no accidents!  I am still learning to appreciate my crate but this is also a work in progress.  I have been known to shred my pillow while I am crated.  At night, I sleep loose with no problems, preferring to plunk down beside your bed for the whole night.  I love to play with other dogs or toys!  I do have a tendency to try to “herd” people where I want them to go, no nipping though, just use my body to guide you where I want you to go.   I am a pretty easy-going boy really, I love to be touched and to hang out with my favourite people.  I need to be fed separately as I will storm any other dog dish around me.  This is probably because I came from a home where there wasn’t enough to eat.  I will also check out things that smell yummy up on the counter so I also need to work on my counter surfing.  All in all, I’m a great guy who just needs to brush up on some manners!

Good with Dogs? Yes
Good with Cats? I saw a cat at the pound and I was curious but non-reactive, so proper intro to cats, please!
​Good with Kids?  Yes
Indoor/Outdoor Home Preferred
About my Personality:
Hello, I’m Kipper!  I am what my foster mom calls “a gentle giant”.  I am a sweet boy with so much love to give.  I have lots of potential and you can see how smart I really am.  I have good manners in the house, no accidents!  I still need some leash work but that’s only cause I’m not confident on where I am going.  Once I start to build up my confidence, I should do just fine.  I’m not a fan of the crate and I will work my way out of them.  Currently, my foster home leaves me in the yard when they are away with access to a garage if needed.  I am in a foster home now with other dogs (one small one and one medium one) and we get along fine.  In fact, the little one tells me off sometimes and I just get out of her way!  The rescue was told that I shouldn’t be fed around other dogs as I had to fight to eat before but my current foster home is not seeing anything like that now.  The other dog and I have shared bones and treats no problem.   The other dog does have a more submissive personality so she’s okay with sharing.  I like to sleep on a dog bed in my foster parent’s room…not a peep all night long!  And I like toys!  I will take every toy out of the basket and give it a try!  That’s all for now!  I’m still settling into foster care and will have updates soon!

About my Personality:
Hello, I’m Hunter.  I am a pretty handsome pup if I do say so myself.  I can be a bit shy when I meet new friends but I am becoming more social all the time.  I am fostered with kids and we get along great.  *As far as dogs and cats go, I am young enough to be shown how to behave around them.  Once I am comfortable, I am a very playful boy!  And I sure do love all this white stuff on the ground!  I am doing really well letting my foster mom know when I need to go out for a potty break.  I am also kennel trained.  I am just a young boy so I have lots of learning & socialization needed.  Please take a moment to consider how much work a puppy can be & make sure you’re ready to be my forever family!

Hello, Ellery here.  I’m new to this rescue thing.  I came in through the Province with my daughter, Jemma.  I am such a sweet girl.  I am settling into my foster home and so far, nothing but good stuff to say.  I am well mannered in the house.  I had a bath and a good brushing so now I’m looking pretty spiffy!  I am fostered with kids and they love me and I’m loving all the attention.  I love to be around people all the time and will even plunk under the table when the kids are eating.  No begging though!  So far, my foster mom says I am a pretty chill and quiet girl who is fitting in very well.  Watch for more updates!
How’s my Health?  I am healthy.  It was recently discovered that I have an old fracture in my pelvis and I will be going for an FHO (femoral head ostectomy) on December 12th to get it all fixed up.

About my Personality:
Hello, I’m Bear.  I used to live with my littermate and he was not a fan of me so we didn’t get along too great.  I like to play with toys and getting my belly rubbed is great fun too.  I like to go for walks and I am good on leash.  I am also kennel trained and sleep in there at night but I also enjoy sleeping on the bed if you’ll let me.  I can be left loose in the house with no problems.  I am housetrained…and get this, I was trained to ring a bell when I want to go outside!  Neat, eh?  If you don’t have a bell, I’ll just head to the door when I want out.  I am fostered with other dogs and cats and I get along with everyone.  I do like to jump up on people so small kids may not like this.  I am a smart boy &  I know how to “sit”, “down” and “off”.  I also went to doggy daycare once a week.  Watch for more updates as I continue to settle in!

Hello, I'm Berlin

Good with Dogs? Yes, but a home to myself would be great!
Good with Cats? Yes
​Good with Kids?  Older kids, 14+
About my Personality:
Hello, I’m Berlin.  I recently returned to rescue when me and one of the other dogs in my adoptive home couldn’t get along.  My adopter was worried I would get hurt since I am so small.  I am fostered with other dogs now and we are all getting along fine at the moment but would love a home all to myself!  I am also fostered with cats and do well with them too.  I am housetrained, and even though I am not a fan of the cold weather, I have not had any accidents in the house.  I am also kennel trained but will give a few chirps at bedtime to let you know that I’d much rather be sleeping in bed with you.  I also enjoy housework, I think chasing the broom around is fun!  I like to cuddle with my people, and will make cute little noises (almost like I’m purring) when we do cuddle or even just to let you know that I’m in the mood for a cuddle!  I love to settle into a lap anytime!  I love to give out kisses and will press my face up to you to ask for kisses from you.
