​​Fall in Love. Change a Life. Adopt a Dog.

Meet Bailey. He's a 1 year old lab X. He's a big boy, around 85 lbs but good natured. Because he is still boisterous, he is not recommended for a home with small children. Bailey is neutered, up to date on shots and ready to head to a forever home. This guy has lots of love to give! Please call the shelter at 519 372 1911 for an appointment to meet this guy.

Meet Sky. This handsome 1.5 year old husky just came in. He's very active but very lovable. He's a big, good-natured boy that just wants to run and play. He's neutered and after a vet check and shots will be ready to go. He's got a high prey drive so not recommended for a home with other small pets. Please call the shelter at 519-372-1911 for an appointment to meet this great guy.

Say hi to Harley. He's a 6 year old neutered male American Bulldog X. He's a sweet guy looking for a quiet home. He is still getting used to the noise of other dogs in the shelter and all the new people but he has been good with handlers and other dogs when out on walks and in the kennel. He does have food allergies and is overweight so his diet will need to be managed. He is good with older children. Please call the shelter at 519 372-1911 for an appointment to meet this guy.

Meet Bentley. He's a 1.5 year old neutered male bullie X (maybe with Aussie as he has a fuzzy coat and one blue and one brown eye). He's a real sweet-heart. He is a medium-sized boy, weighing in around 29 kg. He likes other dogs, and people, including kids. He's moderately active so would do well in an active family. Bentley is up-to-date on shots and looking forward to finding his forever family. Please call the shelter at 519-372-1911 to meet Bentley.

Harvey is available now. This handsome little guy with big ears and a big personality is now 7 months old. He does have a heart condition that will require some follow-up tests when he is around a year old. At this point, it isn't slowing him down. He's a busy, smart puppy. He's currently happily enjoying being with his foster family but looks forward to finding a forever home. Harvey is up to date on shots and neutered. Please call the shelter at 519 372-1911 for an appointment to meet this little guy.

Adopting a Dog

 Contact Us/Visit Us  at the shelter by appointment. Appointments are typically booked 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. Dogs must meet all people and dogs that are typically in the household during the 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, $400 for dogs and $500 for puppies 6 months and under, is payable in cash, debit or by eTransfer.   Note: Fees are adjusted for senior animals.

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.
