Grey Bruce Animal Shelter offers a safe place for pets that have no choices left.
“Sometimes, their owners have had no choice either. They, too, may have aged and had to move into a facility where their loved companions are not allowed or, in the final step of life, may have died leaving their pets behind,” says Shelter Manager, Deb Takeda. “Whatever the reason, these faithful friends have no choice but to wait … wait for someone new to take them in and love them.”
Sometimes too, however, they come from very unusual circumstances that are unfair for anyone, human or otherwise.
This gorgeous young girl is Anja! She’s been at the shelter for a little while and is still waiting to meet her perfect match. She’s a two-year-old German Shepherd mix, spayed, and up to date on her vaccinations.Anja is dreaming of an active person or family who can keep up with her high energy, smarts, and desire to be busy! She’s become a good running buddy for some of the shelter volunteers, though she gets a little excited at cars still. She also *loves* to work for her dinner with a good stuffed Kong toy!She can be a little nervous with new people at first, but she comes around quickly and then is a real sweetheart. No cats for Anja, please, and probably no other dogs – she can be picky with her dog friends. She would also be best with no small children, but older dog-savvy children should be just fine.Breed experience would be a bonus for this girl. If you think Anja is the one for you, give us a call at 519-372-1911!
