Bruce is a one and a half year old German Shepherd. We do not have his entire history and background. When Bruce arrived in our shelter, we found some nervous reactive tendencies toward aggression (yellow zone). We found that he was good with people he trusted and he is young and eager to learn. As a result of some generous donations, we were able to send Bruce for some training and socialization in a home environment. He is now available for adoption. Bruce has been doing amazing with his training and is ready to start looking for his new home. We are opening appointments for him on a limited basis for those that meet Bruce's requirements. Breed experience is an asset. Any other questions about Bruce please call the shelter. Visits are by appointment only. Please call the shelter at 519-372-1911. □No cats or small animals. □ Adult only home. □No apartments. □ Experienced handler if living with another dog. □ Someone with an active lifestyle. □ Fenced yard a bonus.

Bo. A CKC registered as a chocolate lab, 7 yrs old, has papers. Bo has a rare silver factored gene which dilutes his coat. He is good with people and would prefer a mature home. He is not good with other dogs and so would be best as a solo pet. He is a large, energetic dog. Large dog/breed experience would be good. He loves to play ball, is crate trained, clean in his pen and he likes the water. He gets seasonal allergies and will need to take a bit of benedryl as needed. APPOINTMENTS ONLY 519-372-1911

Blu is a 4 y/o Mastiff/American bulldog cross, once he warms up to new people he is a super sweet guy. Blu is looking to be the only pet in the home as he doesn't get along with cats or dogs. Large breed experience is a must, don't let his photos fool you he weighs 130 lbs. Blu would benefit from someone who is home more frequently as he has separation anxiety and doesn't like to be away from his people. He is also looking for an adult only home. If you have any questions about his adoption requirements please call the shelter at 519-372-1911. Appointments are mandatory.

Adopting a Cat or Dog

​Visit our shelter Contact/ Visit Us. The best time to visit is between 9 am - 11 am. During your visit, you will spend time with your prospective pet and, in the case of dogs, go for a short walk on the grounds.

Adoption is a significant decision and our policy requires a minimum of two visits before making the choice to adopt. If you already own a dog, it should be present during one of those visits to ensure compatibility.

If the adoption proceeds, you will complete an adoption agreement and will be provided additional information including our return policy. 

The fee, payable in cash, is $400 for dogs and $200 for cats, which includes spaying/neutering, all shots and vaccinations plus a final vet health check.

The Grey-Bruce Animal Shelter is committed to ensure that all cats and dogs that pass through our adoption facility are vaccinated, spayed or neutered and all dogs micro-chipped. However, there will be SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES when these procedures cannot be performed prior to adoption. The Shelter manager shall determine which circumstances are deemed to be special. Where such special circumstances exist, an adoption will only be permitted if the adopter agrees to the terms of and signs the GBAS /ADOPTER/SPAY NEUTER AGREEMENT which can be obtained at the Shelter front desk at time of adoption.
