Under typical circumstances we do not take possession of animals, but this was no ordinary case…

We are not a rescue / nonprofit, but in my personal time I try to involve myself with different rescues throughout Alberta. When I saw this girl, I knew she needed as much help as I could offer.

This is Honey. She is a 21 year old mare who was being sold in this condition – we do believe it was complete lack of knowledge, and not straight out abuse. But ignorance isn’t an excuse.

Not only is she malnourished, with limited access to proper food or water, she has a back end injury that is greatly restricting her movement.
Despite her condition, she is one of the gentlest souls I have ever had the pleasure to meet. She is calm, cool, and collected, and has nothing but love to give.
She did see the vet and received the proper care to keep her comfortable. She stayed with us for a couple of weeks until she could make it to her forever home, to the wonderful family that played a huge part in saving her from her past situation. (We did not adopt her out in this condition, we fostered her until she was stable enough to transport.)

She will be seeing a vet again this week to complete more detailed testing, and we will post another update soon!

I want to give a huge shout out to Horse Heroes Alberta. They are an organization that rescues horses directly from the slaughter pipeline and are committed to helping horses like Honey get a second chance. They have an amazing community that brings like minded people together to help as many animals as possible. They, “…strive to educate owners that horses are so much more than just rideable.”

Although Honey has found an incredibly loving home, I still wanted to share her story to help raise awareness that cases like these are happening in our community every day. Rescues in Alberta are typically running at, or over, capacity, doing their best to help every animal they can.

I’m very grateful for all the support this business has received. Our main goal is to lower the amount of owner surrenders that we see in rescues by helping owners find suitable homes for their pets, alleviating some pressure off of nonprofits and giving them the ability to help the homeless, injured, or neglected animals in our community.

Taco is a 10 year old Corgi. He is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.

Taco loves his people. He is playful (bubbles are his favorite!), energetic, and loves adult visitors. He is fully house trained, and likes to spend his days indoors. He currently is not allowed in the kitchen, he doesn't beg for food and he can stay away of the carpet if you give him the command. If you're looking for a shadow, Taco is definitely the dog for you!

Taco does not like to share attention. He can be very territorial and aggressive to other animals. He can not be let off leash unless he is in a secure area.

Taco would benefit being in an home with an owner who is experienced with dogs who have aggression towards other animals. He needs a home with no small children, and no other animals.

He may come with some vices but in exchange for your patience Taco will reward you with unconditional love and affection.

If you are interested in Taco, please send us a message, or complete an adoption application on our website!

Look at these ears!
Apollo is a 8 month old shepherd / lab mix.
He is a very happy boy that loves everyone.
He is good with other dogs, and cats, as long as they respect his boundaries!
Apollo has a history of resource guarding - which means he really doesn't like to share his toys, food, or treats. Because of this, he would do best in a home with no other dogs or cats, or in a home with an experienced owner that can help him learn to share!
We would like to see him go to a home with no small children.
Apollo is a little rough around the edges but with a little bit of love and training, he's going to grow into a great dog full of unconditional love for his people. 🥰
Apollo is located in Thorhild, Ab, but will be making a trip up to the Grande Prairie area at the end of June!

This handsome boy is Dixon!
He is a 1 year old collie / heeler mix.
Dixon loves food - almost as much as he loves people!
He is good with dogs once he warms up to them, and would do best in a home with no cats.
Dixon is good with children!
He would do best in a moderately active - very active family.
He can play fetch for hours, but also will need some brain puzzles to keep his mind active.
Dixon would make the perfect running / hiking buddy!

If you are interested in Dixon, please compete an adoption application, or message us! 😁

This lovely cat is Girlie.
Girlie has a bit of a rough past, so needs a very specific type of home.
She is estimated to be around 3-6 years old.
Girlie was found as a stray in 2020, and finally came around to people enough to be caught in 2022. In that time, she had litters of kittens, and was attacked by the other stray cats in the area. She has developed a severe fear of other cats, but absolutely adores dogs.
Once she warms up to you, she is incredibly sweet. She loves to be in your lap, and will reward your patience with endless snuggles and kisses.
Girlie is a talker. She loves to meow and chirp at her people, and loves it when they talk back!
She needs to go to a quiet home with no children, and no other cats.
She would be the perfect companion for an older couple.
Girlie is spayed, and up to date on her vaccinations.

Interested in Girlie? Please fill out an adoption form on our website, or message us!

The first adorable puppy is Eeyore. Don't let his camera shyness fool you, he isn't as sad as he may appear...
Eeyore is the last male available from his litter. He is calm, cool, and collected, and looks after his rambunctious sisters.
Although he is going to be a big dog (look at those paws😍) he will be a gentle giant, and make an excellent family dog.
He has lived most of his life outside, but with his calm demeanor switching to an indoor lifestyle will be no problem for this pup.

The second is Piglet. We told her if she closed her eyes real tight and made a wish, we would try to make it come true. She wished to find her fur-ever home, and had the biggest smile when we said she would find her family soon!
She is the calmer, and larger, of the two females. She has been waiting very patiently for her new best friend. Will you be her Poohbear? 🥰

The third is Tigger. She is the smaller of the two females, but what she lacks in size she makes up for in personality. She likes to zoom around as fast as she can, wrestle with her siblings, and if she could, I'm sure she would bounce on her tail, just like the real Tigger!
She would do very well as a family dog that is moderately active. She is very affectionate in between her bursts of energy.

These pups were born early February, and are a Lab x Pyrenees Mix.
Located in Teepee Creek AB.
There is no adoption fee.

**ADOPTED** 🥳
This adorable girl is Winnie. She is a 1 year old Rottweiler/ German Shepard mix.
Winnie is great with other animals, and children.
She would make a good family dog, or a good companion for someone who lives alone.
She is a very sweet girl looking for her fur-ever home.

Let Barn Door Pet Services help you find a fur-ever home for your pet. (This includes finding homes for accidental litters!)

We promise to offer a judgement free environment when it comes to the rehoming of your pet. The decision to rehome your pet is difficult enough. Let us take the stress off you by helping you select the right home.
To begin, please complete a rehome application form through our website -
