Merlin's Story

File #25-108 Current Foster Location: Smiths Falls, ON I'm a tri-pawd husky with brains, bounce, and a whole lot of charm! If you’ve ever wanted a husky with lower activity needs, I’m your man! It takes a lot of work for me to balance on my three legs, but you wouldn’t know it as I love showing off my leash skills and zooming around the yard with other dogs. I love meeting new people on and off leash, and especially love cuddling my favourite people at the end of the day. I am good with dog-savvy cats. I'm a sweet boy; a truly lovable goofball. Think Tigger from Winnie the Pooh—bounce and all. My future family should be ready to support my health needs and keep me mentally busy!

It Takes A Village Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

Hopeful adopters must fill out an adoption application. All applications are screened and potential matches are contacted. Follow up questions are emailed. A phone call is set up to clarify any questions about the adoption process. At that point the fosters are provided the contact information for the potential adopters. They set up a meet and greet at the fosters home. During the meet the foster will tell the potential adopter the good, the bad. and the ugly about the dog... we want total transparency in order to have an open and successful adoption. After the meet we ask the fosters and the adopters their thoughts. If the adopter would like to proceed, their references are checked and a virtual home visit is conducted. If the adoptable dog has any sort of behavioural or medical issues a plan to address the issue would be required before adoption could proceed. If all is good then the adoption contract is sent out to be signed and returned along with the adoption fee. The foster is given the green light to arrange pick up.
