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
-
I love animals and believe they all deserve a chance at love and having a happy home. Fostering has been my biggest reward in life. Often seeing these dogs go from shy, frightened, unsure, abused, and/or neglected, to the most loving, happy, and grateful family members. People always ask how I do it, but how can I not? Is it hard to let go? Of course, it is. But it’s not about me – it’s about getting these dogs into furever homes. When I see updates from adopters, nothing makes me happier. I trust Pets Alive to get these homes for my fosters, and when they leave me, sure I miss them, but it means I can take another one into my home. In all, I have fostered roughly 53 dogs. That’s 53 souls that otherwise, may not be alive today.
