Adopted as a puppy, with a wagging tail and soft, brown eyes, he quickly became a beloved member of the household. But little did he know, Harvey had a special calling—he became their local school’s therapy dog! His presence brings smiles to the students, who love snuggling with him during stressful days. Once a homeless shelter pup, now he fills their school with warmth and happiness!

Meet Daisy the Chi-weenie!

Daisy was adopted and returned for skin issues. Her skin is incredibly inflamed, as well as being diagnosed with a UTI, ear infection, yeast overgrowth and chronic dry eye. She needs to be given eye drops three times a day as well as prescription Apoquel for her skin. We would love to find a foster or permanent home for this gal. While Daisy has lived with another dog, she can be protective over her toys and space. Daisy is quiet and affectionate and loves to burrow herself under blankets. An ideal foster/permanent home would be where Daisy could be the only dog in the household. Do you have room in your heart and home for a medical dog like Daisy?
For more information, please send a PM or call the shelter at 905-632-2519.

Meet Kratos

Are you a sucker for older dogs that are sweet, mellow, and just want to be loved? Our guy Kratos might be the one for you! Kratos is a 7–8-year-old rottweiler whose previous family describes him as "happy, still acts like a puppy, loves to cuddle, is a couch potato." He has lived with other dogs, cats, and children. Kratos roams the household when his family is gone and has no issues being alone. From what we know about this guy, he would fit well into lots of different lifestyles. If you would like to set up an appointment to meet Kratos, call the shelter at 906 632 2519. Please call for the quickest response as those submitted through FB, Petfinder, and email are not always closely monitored. If you have another dog in the home, a meet and greet is required before bringing Kratos home.

Meet Josie Lou

Josie Lou is a floofy, happy, energetic 8-year-old Australian shepherd looking for someone to match her enthusiasm for life. Josie LOVES attention from all people and is a social butterfly with humans. She has lived with all ages of children and has done well with them. Josie Lou did learn to live with another dog (another Aussie) in her previous home, but it took some work; she might do be happiest as the only dog in the home. She does not want to share her living space with kitties or other small animals. Josie enjoys activities in the snow and fetch is her favorite game. Don't let her 8-year age fool you- this girl can run circles around the best of us! If you're in the market for a smart, sweetheart of a dog, call the shelter at 906 632 2519 to set up an appointment to meet Josie Lou. Please call for the quickest response to inquiries as those submitted through FB, email, or Petfinder are not always closely monitored. If you do have another dog in the home, a meet and greet is required before bringing Josie home.

Meet Lily- Prison Training Program Graduate

Lily is the MOST affectionate girl- she runs around with a full body wag as if to ask "Will you be my friend? What about you, will you be my friend? I LOVE friends!!!" Her previous family did a lot to make sure she had positive exposure to the world and it shows. Lily as lived with two huskies before (a male and female) and has done well. She has also lived with cats for a period of time and was curious and playful with them. Lily is housebroken and is used to staying in a crate when her people are away from the home. She goes absolutely ga-ga for toys; a home with lots of playtime is just what this girl needs. If you think Lily might be a fit for you household, call the shelter at 906 632 2519 to make an appointment to meet her. Please call for the quickest response as inquiries submitted through FB, Petfinder, and email are not closely monitored.

Meet Freya

Freya is a 4-year-old herding mix with ears so big, she is sure to hear every compliment that you give her! And with how smart and gorgeous she is, there are sure to be lots of them. Freya has lived with another large breed dog and a cat in her previous home. Being a herding mix, she is prone to chase and nip (herd) things that run quickly by her. Her previous family describes Freya as "funny, silly, loves to play, and loves to cuddle". She would be best placed in a home with teenagers and up, as younger children make her nervous. If you think Freya is a fit for your lifestyle, call the shelter at 906 632 2519 to set up an appointment to meet her. Please call for the quickest response to inquiries as those submitted through FB, Petfinder, and email are not always closely monitored. If you have another dog in the home, a meet and greet is required before bringing Freya home.

(Super) Nova went on an outing! We don’t believe Nova has ever been taken for a trail walk and boy was she excited about it! Nova is an absolutely wonderful, sweet, affectionate girl that will steal your heart when you meet her. She is appx 3-years-old but she has a perpetual puppy face (and personality) with all of those wrinkles!! She came to us because she lived in a home with too many animals. Nova absolutely adores people of all ages but would like to meet any potential canine siblings before going home. She is housebroken and is reported to do well when left loose in the home. If you would like to meet Nova, call the shelter at 906 632 2519.
