About Pelee
Pelee came to us after his owner unexpectedly passed away. He is a sweet dog that can initially be timid, but he warms up quickly. He loves attention and seems good with kids, but we think older children would be best for him.
Pelee would love an active family to take him for lots of walks. He’s very good on leash. He does pull, when he sees a squirrel or rabbit, but who can blame him?! Due to Pelee's strong prey drive and preference for being the only dog, a home without any other animals would be best.
Pelee has been through a lot of change recently and is showing some signs of separation anxiety. He would love to be adopted by someone who can be home quite a bit and would be willing to help him work through his anxiety. He's a very good boy and desperate to be someone's best friend again!
Adoption Fee | $500
Adoption fees help cover the costs associated with rescue, such as vetting, boarding, and transportation.
Prior to adoption, dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and 4Dx tested, and they receive any necessary treatment. After adoption, they are eligible for one month of free pet insurance.
For more information about adoption fees, please review our Adoption FAQs & Fees page.
Why We Love Fostering
-
Teddy and Lily came to me almost 10 years ago. Unfortunately, Lily is suffering from kidney disease, but Teddy takes care of her and watches over her to the best of his ability. I've said this so many times: They didn't need me, I needed them. Pets Alive Niagara is hands down one of the most loving, caring, involved, dedicated charities in the Niagara Region. If you are able to be part of this family jump on our band Wagon won't you? 🐾🎙.
Why We Love Fostering

There is a special joy in seeing the transformation from fear to trust in a foster cat’s face and posture, the first time they relax and warm up to me. There is so much comedy in a litter of crazy kittens, rollicking and tumbling, learning how to be big cats. Each foster kitty has been cared for as if they were my own, and I enjoy the confidence in the feeling that they are ready for their forever home. That is the biggest difference between choosing to adopt from a small rescue rather than a shelter, and why I love volunteering. People often ask me how I can be so strong to let such sweet kitties go to adoption, but the feeling that I have space to help another is worth the emotional goodbye. Penny is the twenty-first cat I have helped, and I am not going to stop anytime soon! Fostering for Pets Alive is by far the most rewarding volunteering I have ever done.
