About Tanook
Meet Tanook, the charming canine companion who is irresistibly drawn to both people and dogs! With his lovable personality and abundance of enthusiasm, Tanook is sure to bring exuberant energy and joy into your life.
While he may carry an aloof demeanor at first meet, Tanook quickly becomes the heart of any household, always ready to join in family activities. His love for toys is unparalleled, and you'll often find him with his favourite one clutched between his teeth like a pacifier, a sight that's both endearing and a little comical.
Tanook's spirited nature means that he can become overexcited at times, especially when the promise of fun and play is in the air. He desires companionship and enjoys social gatherings with other dogs, thriving in settings that allow him to express his social side to the fullest. However, a bit of guidance can help refine his leash manners, as he's a strong boy who could benefit from some training in that area.
With the right environment and the perfect mix of love and leadership, Tanook would be an amazing addition to the right household.
If you're ready for an exciting and fulfilling journey with a dog that promises affection and playfulness every day, then Tanook might just be the perfect friend you've been searching for.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, prefferibly all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.

Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
