YAMASKA
About
YAMASKA hails from Fort Severn, a Northern community and came south with her 5 siblings, Kokanee, Arisaig, Algonquin, Banff & Makwa (they’re known as the Provincial Parks Litter) and she came south to find her forever home. She’s had *1 set of puppy vaccines, a microchip, “Interceptor Plus” dewormer and has been deemed a healthy girl by her Vet. We actually have a video showing both parents and mum looks like a medium sized Collie/Old English Sheepdog and her dad possibly a large sized black Lab/Border Collie/Shepherd. We do also see Newfoundlander breed in the litter so we do expect her to be a large breed dog. She comes from a community with many stray dogs so she no doubt has many different breeds in her that are not as notable as well. She’s very placid, laid back little fluff ball who loves her humans almost as much as she loves taking naps. Although she’s super chill, gentle and quiet, she is the more dominant one out of the siblings. She loves to play in her fenced-in yard and will happily chase her brother around in it. She’s well socialized with people and will excitedly run up to greet them with a wagging tail. She loves her snuggles and will happily curl up in your lap to get lots of them. YAMASKA is a happy-go-lucky, playful puppy who’s full of curiosity and is just learning what squeaky toys are all about and she’s always startled when one of her favourites actually has a squeaky in it. With her lovely personality and good nature she’s ready to find her forever home where she can continue to thrive and grow. YAMASKA has just started her crate training and she’s picking up on it very quickly as she’s one smart little lady. She’s only just started going out for her bathroom breaks so she’s just starting to understand that’s the place to do her business. She’s not going out for walks just yet seeing as she’s not vaccinated enough but she is wearing a collar and harness while on a leash so she can be walked around the back yard. Due to teething, she’s at a chewing stage and needs lots of chewy toys to satisfy that urge not to chew on anything that she shouldn’t. She really loves to chew on a Nyla bone to keep those little teeth busy too. She’s starting to learn a couple of basic commands already such as “sit” for her meals and take treats “gentle.” YAMASKA would love an active family who loves the outdoors, going on hikes, walks and will take her on adventures with them. She travels well in a vehicle and will just rest in her crate and quietly enjoy being driven around. There’s a resident dog in her foster home and she’ll seek him out to romp and play with so she would definitely suit being with other dogs in her new home. Ideally they should be chill and placid like she is and they’d be fine putting up with puppy antics. She can be an only dog as long as she’s not left alone for long periods at a time. She hasn't met a cat but seeing as she’s just a puppy and with a slow, monitored introduction they should do well together. She requires a fenced-in yard so she can run around and play safely so she wouldn’t suit being in an apartment and that’s also due to the size we think she’ll grow to be. Children should be aged 6yrs and up plus be gentle, loving and caring towards animals. YAMASKA, like all puppies is a cute, playful and fun puppy but she’ll require a lot of time, patience and dedication to training. We need her adopter to commit to signing her up for puppy training/obedience classes so she can be the most well behaved puppy possible. Her spay is included in her adoption fee and her potential adopter must be in agreement to have her spay performed by the time she’s 6 months of age. It will either be at the Rescue’s vet’s office or be at the Barrie SPCA. You do have the option to use your own vet and we’ll reimburse you what we would’ve paid for it at the SPCA. However, her spay will still have to be performed in the above timeframe for the reimbursement and we’ll need a copy of the procedure invoice and an updated photo of her (preferably in a onsie or cone after the surgery.) We use the photo on our fb page along with other animals that were spay/neutered that same week. If YAMASKA sounds like she’d suit your home and lifestyle then please submit an adoption application to meet her. It should be noted that puppies personalities can change daily/weekly as their little brains develop. We try to keep our puppy postings as up-to-date as possible but due to their development, it’s not always possible to note 100% accurate behavioural information. * She’ll receive her second vaccine and be ready for adoption the weekend of August 29/30th.
