Gypsy
🐾 Meet Gypsy – Your New Best Friend with a Heart Full of Love! 🐾
Gypsy is a stunning 2.5-year-old female Goldendoodle with a beautiful white chest and a gentle spirit. Sadly, due to her owner’s mobility challenges, she’s looking for a new home where she can thrive, get the attention she deserves, and enjoy an active lifestyle.
✨ About Gypsy:
-
💉 Spayed & Vaccinated: Healthy, no known medical issues, and up to date on her shots.
-
🐶 Great with Other Pets: Raised with another dog and has been around cats since she was a puppy. She gets very excited meeting new animal friends!
-
🧒 Kids & Strangers: Gypsy hasn’t spent much time with young kids under 10. She’s very friendly with strangers—maybe a little too friendly, as she’ll jump up to say hello.
-
🚽 House Trained: Fully house-trained. She’s not crate trained but does fine being left alone.
🐕 Personality & Preferences:
-
Loves hugs, kisses, and affection.
-
Enjoys chew toys (just be warned—she loves to chew them up).
-
Sleeps in the bedroom, close to her people.
🏡 Ideal Home:
Gypsy would be happiest with an energetic family or individual who will include her in their daily life—walks, play, and quality time. She’s been missing her doggy companion and needs someone who can give her the joy, playtime, and companionship she craves.
👉 No rehoming fee.

Kirkland
🐾 Meet Kirkland – The Bow-Legged Little Buddy Ready to Find His Perfect Home! 🐾
Kirkland is a roughly 3-year-old small mixed breed dog with a unique look—his two front legs are slightly bowed, but do not worry, it does not slow him down or affect his health. His gorgeous coat is a blend of browns, blacks, and whites, making him just as striking on the outside as he is sweet on the inside.
✨ About Kirkland:
-
🐶 Neutered & Vaccinated: Healthy boy up to date on vaccines and vet checks.
-
🏠 Good with Cats & Familiar Dogs: Lives peacefully with another dog and a cat. New dogs take a moment of caution, but he does well once he is comfortable.
-
👶 Kids & Strangers: Kirkland prefers to keep to himself around kids and strangers—never aggressive, just more of a quiet observer.
-
🚽 House Training: Still a work in progress. He knows to go outside, but doesn’t quite understand how to ask to go out. He is crate trained and handles being alone about 90% of the time without any issues.
🍽️ Special Notes:
-
Eats Purina One Salmon formula—he doesn’t do well with chicken, beef, or pork.
-
Loves lounging on the couch or snuggling in bed at night.
-
Enjoys his fenced outdoor time best, so an ideal home would have a secure yard where he can explore safely.
💖 Looking For:
Kirkland would thrive in a quieter home, perhaps with an older couple who have the patience to continue his training and the time to enjoy his calm companionship. A fenced yard is a big plus!
👉 No rehoming fee.

🐾 Let’s help this sweet little guy find the secure, happy forever home he deserves!
Shadow
🌟 Meet Shadow – A Gentle Giant Looking for a Loving Home 🐾
Shadow is an 8-month-old Great Pyrenees/Maremma mix with a heart as big as his paws (and yes, he even has an adorable extra toe on his back leg 🐾). This fluffy sweetheart was dearly loved, but his current family can no longer afford the care and training he needs to thrive.
🖤 Shadow is:
✨ Wonderful with children – he loves them!
✨ Learning to be social with other dogs
✨ A cuddle bug who wants to sleep in your room and be near you
✨ Not a fan of loud noises (vacuums are scary monsters)
✨ Still a pup – and like many his age, he is navigating separation anxiety
💬 He hasn’t had vet care yet, so his future family will need to start him off right with vaccinations, neuter, and regular checkups. But what he lacks in paperwork, he makes up for in love.
🎒 Shadow is used to outdoor play, cozy cuddles, and meals twice a day. His ideal home would be one with space, patience, and a commitment to helping him grow into the incredible dog he’s meant to be.
💸 Adoption Fee: None, as Shadow will require vaccinations and a neuter.
📍 Located in Medicine Hat, AB

Hobbes & Bandit
*In a PAACT Foster Home*
🐾 Hobbes & Bandit Are Ready for Their Forever Home – Together! 🐾
Meet Hobbes & Bandit – two handsome, bonded boys looking for a second chance at a loving home. These sweethearts came into our care after their owner faced unforeseen hardships, and we’re so grateful we could step in to help.
🧡 Bandit needed some extra TLC when he arrived, including veterinary care for his eye and a full grooming session to free him from painful mats. Now that he’s feeling better, he’s back to grooming himself and absolutely adores his daily brushing – it’s a must in his routine and a great way to bond.
🤎 Hobbes is a total cuddle bug who loves to make biscuits and snuggle up close. He and Bandit are both well-socialized, affectionate, and clearly used to being loved.
✨ Both boys are:
✔️ Neutered (since kittenhood)
✔️ Recently vaccinated
✔️ Litter trained
✔️ Familiar with water fountains (which they use – a win for hydration!)
💰 An adoption fee of just $150 for both Hobbes & Bandit will apply as they are fully vetted — a small price for a lifetime of love from this beautiful bonded pair!
They are still warming up to wet food, but they are thriving with proper care and attention. This bonded pair must be adopted together – their connection is heartwarming, and we cannot imagine separating them.

Lacey-Lou & Getty
🐶 Meet Lacey-Lou & Getty – The Dynamic Duo Looking for Their Next Adventure!
Lacey-Lou and Getty are a bonded pair of six-year-old sweethearts in search of an active, loving home where they can thrive together. Both are altered, well-socialized with cats and other dogs, and ready to bring joy, loyalty, and endless affection to the right family.
🐾 Lacey-Lou is a playful and intelligent Blue Heeler mix. True to her breed, she’s energetic, clever, and loves staying engaged. When under-stimulated, she may get a bit rambunctious, but with regular enrichment and activity, she’s a wonderful companion to animals and humans alike.
🐾 Getty is a gentle Blue Tick Coonhound with a heart full of love. He can be a bit anxious at times, especially when lacking routine, but he’s never destructive and responds beautifully to structure, affection, and consistent exercise.
While they have not had much exposure to young children, they are incredibly affectionate and gentle by nature. Their ideal home would include:
✔️ A large, secure yard for playtime
✔️ Daily walks, runs, or other activities to keep their minds and bodies happy
✔️ A calm, consistent environment with loving humans who understand the needs of intelligent, high-energy breeds
These two are the best of friends and would love nothing more than to continue their journey side-by-side. Their current owner is facing serious health challenges and is heartbroken to let them go but is making the brave, compassionate choice to ensure they have the lifestyle they deserve.
If you are looking for two loyal companions who will fill your home with love, laughter, and tail wags, Lacey-Lou and Getty might be the perfect pair for you. 💙

Ripley
🐾 Meet Ripley: A Gentle Giant in Search of His Forever Home 🐾
📍 Currently in Medicine Hat, AB
💌 Facilitated through PAACT’s Tail End Journey Rehoming Program
Meet Ripley, a 5.5-year-old Cane Corso/Boer boel mix who is equal parts strength and sweetness. Brindle-coated with a white paw and a heart of gold, Ripley is looking for a loving home where he can thrive.
🏡 Why He is Looking for a New Home
Due to his owner’s health, Ripley’s care has become too much to manage alone. This decision was not made lightly. Ripley has been cherished deeply, and now it is time to find a new family to continue that love.
🧠 Personality & Temperament
• Super gentle with cats and respectful in the home
• Great with older kids (has lived with teens and was very tolerant with a child on the autism spectrum)
• Barky at first, but warms up quickly—expect sniffs and kisses within minutes
• House trained, leash trained, and used to a quiet, predictable routine
• A bit of a scaredy-cat—Ripley has some anxiety and prefers not to be alone outside
🩺 Health & Care
• Neutered, up to date on vaccinations, approx. 190 lbs
• Eats dry or wet food (Ol’ Roy) and loves his beef strip treats
• Enjoys showers and even chews his own nails—quirky and endearing!
🏠 Best Fit Home
Ripley would thrive in a calm home with teenagers or adults, ideally with a fenced yard to explore safely. He is used to having his own space and a predictable routine. A family that understands large breeds and can offer patience and love would be perfect.
📝 Rehoming Details
• No adoption fee
• Owner is open to meeting adopters but prefers a permanent placement over a trial
• Vet records available
• PAACT is supporting the rehoming process and will assist with inquiries
✨ Ripley has so much love to give. Let’s find this gentle boy the forever family he deserves.
