He has youthful exuberance and he is now a loving companion who is both eager to please and learn. He has been so pleasant and fun for us. We look forward to many years...

I must tell you off the top that we changed Kimberley’s name to Juniper and we call her Joonie, for short. Joonie is thriving! As you may know, she is on medication for epilepsy and since we have had her, just over 2 years, she has not had a seizure. We are so thankful. Joonie loves to meet her puppy...

We welcomed Dakoda and Marley into our home in December of 2012. They settled quickly into their new routine of runs through the muddy neighbouring fields, followed by a rinse and swim in Lake Erie on their personal beach. Dakoda is happy whether he is hiking, swimming, napping or enjoying the campfire and Marley just needs his “mom” near him...

Meet Beau and Goldie…our dynamic duo. These magnificent Goldens bring pure joy into our lives each day. They got introduced to camping and were superstars. Perhaps Beau was more ‘super’ than Goldie as Goldie spent the night trying to slowly creep into our sleeping bags. They were introduced to a new cat this year and the three of them love...

Dexter was our 2nd foster dog through GR that we first met on December 12, 2012 at TVEH. He had torn his ACL and required immediate surgery after travelling to Toronto from out of town. We were fortunate that we were able to meet him before surgery so that we wouldn’t be strangers to him afterwards. After the recovery period...
