Name: ROCKY (M) – Adoption Pending
Breed: Shepherd/Bull Terrier X
Age: 4 years
Arrived: January 31st, 2022
Hi All! My name is Rocky and I’m the longest resident here at NLRHS. Can you believe my handsome face has been in their care for just over one year?! I’m a quiet boy who loves all the attention I can get from my caretakers and the visitors that come in. I’m a good boy, however I am picky on who my dog friends are, so if you have another dog, it’s important that we meet first to make sure we can be friends. They tell me I’m the perfect mix of old soul and playful puppy. I love a good play date, but I also love to just chill and relax with my people. I can guarantee you I’d bring lots of joy to your family. I guess I did a bit of exploring outside of my previous homes boundaries, therefore I do require a fenced yard to keep safe and out of trouble. And…if you’re looking for a walking or running buddy, I LOVE going for walks. I have good eating habits, am good when left alone and enjoy travelling in a vehicle. Consider meeting me if I sound like the purrfect addition to you family! Rocky is vet checked, up to date on vaccines, dewormed and neutered. He will be microchipped prior to adoption.
ADOPTION FEE REDUCED to $250!
Name: OREO (F)
Breed: Large Mixed Breed
Age: 2 years approx.
Arrived: February 14th, 2022
Hello friends! My name is Oreo and I’ve been on the hunt for a forever since ever since I finished weaning my pups. That was eights months ago! I don’t know how my good looks and sweet personality haven’t captured any hearts yet! I’m a young and very active lady so I still have a lot to learn, but I’m eager to do so with my new family’s help. Daily walks, hikes and other family adventures would be so much fun and help we use up some of my energy. I can be a little vocal when in my kennel, but that’s just because I miss being with my humans. Toys? I love toys! I love them so much that sometimes I get a little carried away and chew them all up. When that happens, new ones appear! When I’m not destroying my toys I like to visit with my other dog friends in the shelter. We get along well, but it’s always best that I’m introduced to new friends. I only like dogs as friends, no cats please! What do you think? Would I make a great pawpal? I’d love to meet you if you think so! Oreo is vet checked, up to date on vaccines, dewormed and spayed. She will be microchipped prior to adoption.

Name: THOR (M)
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: 2 Years
Arrived: July 22nd, 2022
Howdy! I’m Thor! I’m a young love bug looking for a fun home to give me lots of exercise, teach me new things and most importantly provide me with unlimited love! My goofy personality is bound to make you giggle, but being young I do still have a lot to learn. A family that is patient and opening to training would be ideal, but at the end of the day I just want someone to love me. I have a lot of energy, so it’s important for me to have my daily exercise needs met so I don’t find other troublesome ways to entertain myself. I do enjoy walks, and am comfortable on the leash. I get along with most dogs, but a meet and greet is recommended with any dogs in my potential home. I love all people, but sometimes my excitement gets the best of me and I don’t know my own strength. For this reason it’s best I go to a home with children ages 10 and up. Hopefully I don’t have to wait too long before finding my future family. Could you be it? Stop in and say hi! Thor is vet checked, up to date on vaccines, neutered and dewormed. He will be microchipped prior to adoption.

Name: MILLS (M)
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: 3 Years
Arrived: August 23rd, 2022
Hello Friends! I’m Mills, one the newest arrivals at NLRHS. Unfortunately, my caretakers aren’t able to tell you much about my past. I could share some stories, but it’s hard for me to share them when hoomans can’t understand dog talk. I’m 2 years old and still have some learning to do, but I’m eager to do so with my new family’s help. I have little experience on the leash, though I learn to be more relaxed a little more each time I go for walks. Seeking a running buddy? Or maybe a hiking buddy? I’m your boy! A fenced yard at my new home would be a dream. It’s the perfect place to play and have a nap after destroying all my toys. Another dream of mine is to have LOTS and LOTS of toys! I’d be happiest at the only child, but I do get along with some of the canines here in the shelter. A meet and greet prior to moving into a new home is always best. What do you think? Would I make a great pawpal? I’d love to meet you if you think we’re a good fit! Mills is vet checked, neutered, up to date on vaccines and dewormed. He will be microchipped prior to adoption.

Name: STELLA (F)
Breed: Collie X
Age: 9-10 months
Arrived: January 26, 2023
We asked Stella to smile for her photo and she did not disappoint. Stella is a young girl who needs someone with patience and time to teach her to be the best girl. She had been an outdoor dog only previous to coming to the shelter, but she is adjusting just fine and loves being indoors. She enjoys the other dogs in the shelter and loves going for walks. Stella has lots of energy and would enjoy a large space to run and play. She is working on her basic commands and with a little treat incentive she’s catching on quickly. Stella can’t wait to join her new home! Stop by and meet her today! Stella is vet checked, and up to date on vaccines. She will be spayed and microchipped prior to adoption.
Name: FINLEY (F)
Breed: Retriever X
Age: 1.5 years
Arrived: January 26th, 2022
Meet our sweet girl, Finley. She’s a little shy with new people at first, but when trust is earned, she warms up and will be your best friend. Finley came to us with a friend and surely would love to have some company in her new home. She was an outdoor only dog in her previous home, but she’s learning all about being inside with a nice warm bed, many toys, and her favourite treats! Give this girl a treat, and she’ll love you for life! Finley knows some basic commands and really enjoys going on walks. Does Finley sound like the girl for you? Stop by and meet her today! Finley is vet checked and up to date on vaccines. She will be spayed and microchipped prior to adoption.
Name: TOBY (M)
Breed: Saint Bernard X
Age: 10-12 weeks (Nov 22)
Arrived: February 14th, 2023
Would you just look at this handsome face! Toby has all the looks and charm. He’s a happy boy who really enjoys playing with his toys, and he loves a good game of fetch and tug-of-war. In the couple of weeks that Toby has been at the shelter, he has shown us that he is an excellent listener and catches on quickly. He’s very smart and learned the most important task first – to sit for a treat, of course. And he’s fully house trained and kennel trained. Toby would love a large fenced yard to explore in and bounce through the snow. He is more of a dominant dog, so he would do best with a dog friend that matches his personality. Do you think Toby is the perfect match for your family? Toby is vet checked, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, and will be microchipped prior to adoption.
