About Colby

Meet Colby! This floppy-eared pup is ready to prance his way into your home and your heart. Colby loves going on walks, though he often has his nose to the ground, enjoying everything he finds along the way. Rescued from an out-of-state shelter, his past is a bit of a mystery. During his time with us, Colby has proven to be a kind-hearted dog. He met another dog at the shelter and showed more interest in companionship than in play. If you have a dog at home, bring them in for a meet and greet to see if they hit it off. Colby is heartworm positive, and while adopters will be responsible for his treatment plan, FCAS will cover the costs through Pender Veterinary Centre. He’ll also come with a dental voucher for a future appointment that includes essential dental services. Colby’s an eligible candidate for an Adoption Audition, a trial adoption period where you can see how he fits into your family. Interested? Visit the shelter during open hours to learn more. If Colby sounds like the perfect addition to your family, come meet him today! What are you waiting for? Apply today!

    Colby enjoys outdoor time, so a home with a medium-sized yard or access to parks for walks would suit him just fine.
