Available for Adoption
Name: London
Gender: Female
Age: Born Jan. 15, 2009
Approx. size/weight when fully grown: 92 lbs.
Breed: Presa Canario (Canary Mastiff)
History: This spirited senior still has a spring in her step and is as passionate about cuddling as she is about playing. Muscular and majestic, she’s a commanding presence in any home with a tendency to "protect" it and those she loves. For this reason, she requires highly experienced adopters in a home without children or other animals to spend the rest of her loving retirement.
Adoption status: Available
Name: Hera
Gender: Female
Age: 1 year old
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 4-6 lbs
Breed: Domestic short Hair
History: Hera came into care with 2 other cats from a reservation in Saskatchewan and we soon found that she was pregnant. She is the mom of the Greek God and Goddess kittens. She is ok with dogs but not ideal in a home with other cats.
Adoption status: Available
Name: Misty
Gender: Female
Age: 2 years old
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 4-6 lbs Breed: Domestic short Hair
History: She was found as a stray in Sylvan Lake. Misty is the ultimate kid cat! She loves spending time watching tv or playing xbox, she is not bothered by the antics of a ninja kid fighting bad guys around her as she naps on the floor and she will curl up for a snuggle any time of the day or night. Misty loves to be loved and will chat with you as you go about your day to day routines and keep up a conversation. She is calm and loving and would be suited for nearly any home! She is scared of dogs
Adoption Status:Available
Name: Xylia
Gender: Female
Age: Born Mar 1 2020
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 60-90 lbs
Breed: Shepherd Mix
History: She was born in care and adopted out by her foster family. But they shortly decided that she was not a fit for them.
Xylia (nicknames include Zee and Zia) is a very intelligent, high energy, goofy puppy who has a ways to go before she grows into her big paws! At almost five months old, she (like most puppies!) is still is learning some manners and how to manage her impulses, and can play a bit rough by mouthing people (although this has decreased over the past three weeks that we've had her).
Xylia loves training games, going for walks, sniffing, playing with other dogs, splashing in the kiddie pool in the back yard, and sunbathing on the deck.
Xylia is afraid of new people, although she has made progress with this during the three weeks she's been in her current foster home. She reacts to new people by growling and barking (and lunging if she is on-leash), but is learning that it is okay to choose to walk away from the "scary strangers," and to trust that her humans will keep her safe. She will need a family that is committed to positive reinforcement training, and working with an approved trainer to help Xylia overcome her fears.
Xylia warms up faster to women and children than to men, but after a day and a half in her current foster home, she decided that her foster dad was a-okay. She is good with kids, although older and/or dog-savvy kids will be more her speed, as she can play rough.
Xylia is very food-motivated, and is happy to 'work' for her kibble by practicing her skills or learning new ones. Xylia's ideal family will be active, enjoy spending lots of time outdoors, and will ensure that she gets the physical activity and mental stimulation that she needs, while making sure she feels safe and secure. Have a resident dog that likes to play? Even better! Need a running or hiking buddy? Xylia is your gal! Xylia will also be a great candidate for dog sports such as agility and nosework. She might be afraid of people, but Xylia is fearless when it comes to physical obstacles or intellectual challenges.
We are looking for a family that is committed to working with her to build her confidence by working with a trainer either on a one on one setting or a class setting. We would like to see sessions booked for when she goes home.
She currently needs a home with no young kids
Adoption Status: Available
Name: Archie
Gender: Male
Age: Born Dec 19 2019
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 6-8 lbs
Breed: DHS mix
History: Archie came into our care with his brother Jughead. Archie is a very laid back cat who doesn't mind small children picking him up and attempting to cuddle. Although he was VERY vocal for the first 36 hours we had him, he rarely meows. When he does choose to vocalize, he has an extremely loud meow. We have been taking Archie out on a leash to sit with us on the deck which he seems comfortable with. He quickly befriended the resident cats and is often playing with them and cuddling them when it's time for a nap. Archie has learned how to use a cat door and seems quite intelligent - especially when it comes to getting at food he shouldn't be eating. Although we haven't been successful in breaking this habit, with consistency anyone should be able to help him break the habit. Overall, Archie will make a wonderful companion for a family or senior that is looking for a friendly feline.

Gender: Male
Age: Born May 15 2020

Adoption Status: Pending Adoption
Name: Wembley
Gender: Female
Age: 1 year old
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 6-8 lbs
Breed: DSH mix
History: Wembley came into our care along with Astro, Mokey and her brother Sprocket. Wembley takes her time warming up to you, but as she does you’ll see the sweet and curious kitty she is. Although nervous at first, when she warms up to you she loves to cuddle in bed. Especially if she can be under the covers! Wembley loves to explore and chirps her way around the house. Especially in the morning when she’s excited to see you! She loves to play with her flirt pole and the laser beam really gets her going. Watching her come out of her shell and warm up to you is definitely worth the sweet, loving and playful kitty that’s she turns out to be.
She would love a home with another cat.
Adoption Status: Available
Name: Phoenix
Gender: Male
Age: Born March 28, 2017
Approx. size/weight when fully grown: 60-90 lbs.
Breed: Boxer mix
History: Always eager to lap up your love, friendly Phoenix is passionate about people, couch time and cuddles. Putting the "p" into playful, this happily energetic pup also loves playing with toys and sticks and particularly enjoys games of tug-o-war. Highly intelligent and slightly independent, he’s honing his leash walking skills but remains insecure around strangers, causing him to lunge or growl. He must, therefore, wear a muzzle when meeting new people and going to the vet. For these reasons, Phoenix is best suited to a home without children or other animals where experienced adopters will perfect his skills and further socialize him in exchange for his enduring loyalty and love.
Adoption Status: Available
Tinkerbelle & Shadow (Bonded Pair)
Name: Tinkerbelle
Gender: Female
Age: 8 years old
Approx. size/weight when fully grown: 40-45 lbs. (medium height)
Breed: American Eskimo mix
History: An appealing blend of affectionate and active, tender hearted Tinkerbelle LOVES going on walks as much as she LOVES being close to those she trusts and being petted. Having come from a hoarding situation several years ago, this usually happy honey is nervous when encountering new people (she would benefit from some confidence classes) but is more open to meeting them and being handled as long as she’s with Shadow.
Name: Shadow
Gender: Male
Age: 5 years old
Approx. size/weight when full grown: 86 lbs. (large)
Breed: Lab Mastiff mix
History: Sweet Shadow is happiest when playing with other dogs, relaxing indoors and running around the yard with Tinkerbelle. Shy when meeting new people and scared of the world in general (training and time may change this), his fear of being leashed keeps him from going on walks with her. And so, for this beautiful, bonded pair to flourish, they need a home with a securely fenced yard and loving adopters to faithfully walk Tinkerbelle while patiently teaching Shadow that the world can be wonderful after all.
Adoption Status: Available
Name: French Toast
Gender: Female
Age: 1 year
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 6-8 lbs
Breed: DHS mix
History: She came to us form a reserve in Sask.
French Toast is a beautiful, kind cat who loves pets and quality time with her people. She may take a bit of time to adjust to her new home and settle in, but after that she loves men, women and children of all ages and is super friendly with strangers and family alike! French Toast prefers her cuddles with 4 feet on the ground/couch rather than your lap or arms but she likes to be around her people and will follow you around and chat with you all day if allowed. She has the softest fur you've ever felt and is a super gentle soul. She is not a dog fan and therefore needs a dog free home

Name: Layla
Gender: Female
Age: Born April 30th 2020
Approx.size/weight when full grown: 60-80 lbs
Breed: Rottweiler mix (vets best guess)
History: Layla was found left on the side of the road in a box at 12 weeks old. At the time she was very underweight. She has now gained weight and is a typical energetic pup. She loves to be close to her human and bonds fast. She is crate trained and sleeps through the night. She is still working on her house training but getting better everyday. She can be shy of new dogs when meeting them but after proper introduction she loves all new dog friends. She has met one cat and was unsure what it was at the start but then could care less. She is an amazing pup. For those that know our founder you will understand how special this pup is by knowing if she could add another dog to this pack it would be Layla in a heart beat. And we all know Megan's thoughts on puppies. She is now referring to her as the one that got away and a diamond in the ruff.
Adoption Status: Pending adoption
She can go to her new home Aug 31st 2020
