The dogs below are available for adoption at the Lethbridge and District Humane Society. There are more dogs shown on Facebook. To view any of the dogs, you will need to make an appointment by calling 403-320-8991.
| Cinder | What to say about Cinder? If she were human, her favorite movies would be the good Fast and Furious movies and Underground 6 – great chase scenes! – but her secret favorite would be Ever After. She would spend all of her time finding the best mountain trails and making vintage cars go really fast. Cinder needs someone who knows how to deal with working dogs, heelers in particular. She needs that person to know that she’s only going to like one or two people in her life and getting to know more will be challenging. She needs someone who will continue training her and be firm and consistent. |  |
| Teddy | Teddy likes his people. That’s it. He doesn’t need a big circle of friends or time at a dog park, he needs his (very few) people and his own yard and a chew toy he can call his own and that’ll make him a very happy boy! What does that mean? It means he’ll need someone who’s committed to getting to know him, who’ll understand that if he doesn’t like you right away it’s just because he needs to know he can trust you, and that takes time. Teddy is a no cats, no dogs, no kids kind of man. Is he a good boy? Most definitely! Will he be forever loyal to his people? Of course! He just comes with boundaries. |  |
| Daisy | Daisy is a beautiful dog but like our other long term residents, she is also looking for a very particular sort of person. Daisy needs structure and consistency and lots of activity and that in itself is a lot for anyone to handle, but she also needs someone that understands that she’s not going to be a snuggler or allowed on the couch or great at parties. She needs rules and structure and she hates surprises! We’re not giving up on her! We know that there’s someone out there willing to give her a home life but until then her walks are many and consisitent, her rules are plentiful and followed. |  |
| Newton | Newton is still a very good boy and we’ve been working on his leash manners but he still gets so darned excited about going! Also he still really wants to chase things but he’s getting the hang of keeping pace to the person he’s walking. |  |
| Chrissy | Chrissy is an absolute wigglebutt. What’s that, you ask? It’s where her butt can sometimes act of its own accord when she’s super happy and start taking her in unexpected directions. Chrissy is a happy girl who likes to learn new things when she’s not just hanging out with you, which is possibly her mostest favorite thing. She sounds lovely, doesn’t she? She is but why’s she here? Because Chrissy hanging out with you turns into Chrissy thinking she has to protect you. Now someone may think that’s the coolest thing ever but Chrissy has a hard time turning that off for polite social situations and just starts to assume anything at all is going to hurt you (can we all say “helicopter mom” together). So she needs someone who’s going to calm that side of her down and make her realize that her mommying days are over and she can just chill out now |

| Chewie | Chewie is definitely a very cute little guy but he does have some behaviour issues. If he was as well behaved as he is cute, he would have been adopted long ago. NO CHILDREN for in the household for him. Chewy is on the move constantly and has no time for cuddling, he can be touchy about being petted over his head. He can also be possessive over toys. He needs someone who is experienced with some behaviour issues and would be willing to work with a trainer for as long as needed and be committed to managing these issues going forward. |  |
| Ryder | Ryder is a beautiful big boy who hasn’t been with us for very long! Sometimes life just likes to throw us some curve balls and that ends up putting us in these weird situations where you’re in a strange place, hardly anyone speaks your language, supper is at a different time and 3 different people walk you throughout the day and you would just really like your couch back please because who wants to walk in the wet snow?? Ryder’s big. He drools. He’s needing some activity in his life. He’s very good with his manners, until he gets single minded about a smell and then you’re just the accessory. He’s looking for a family with teens or just adults. |  |
| Delta | Delta is an amazing Siberian Husky girl! She is so sweet to all people and would make a fantastic running companion. She is looking for an active family who enjoys the outdoors! Delta is a no other cats and dogs kind of girl. She wants you all to herself. Delta doesn’t need a heavy hand, she just needs a firm one. And an active one! She needs someone who’s willing to work with her quirks and thinks marathons are for short sighted wussies. Her quirks include hating our concrete floors, so she’s always playing the Floor Is Lava game; doesn’t like metal bowls; talks back like a toddler wired on a bag of Hallowe’en candy and can’t run like a normal dog because her dream job is dancing. |  |
