JADES SMILE – YOUTUBE VIDEO:

Today this lovely YARN dog “Jade”, went over the bridge to smile for everyone in heaven… She certainly earned her wings, after guiding (?) rescue dogs at YARN since 2013…

10 Years ago this video went mini-viral – for like a “second”… 87 K views, just to see Jade’s Beautiful Smile… <3

UPDATE: These two are not part of the litter of pups (who's mama was killed). Just a mama & one pup dropped at my place... The WL Dog Pound will get them to the big city to find new homes.

A mama dog and one puppy were dropped on my deck today...

I hear someone from Dease Lake was posting - asking about how to get a mama dog and a "litter" of pups to Whitehorse... Leaving me to wonder where the rest of the pups are...?

Note: YARN is not operating at this time... These two littles will be handed over to the Watson Lake Dog Pound...

ADOPTABLE FEMALE:

This is Lucy… She is an 8-Month-Old Golden Retriever Cross…? She is from the “Brady Bunch” litter. (Alice) She is about 65lbs.

Her current foster family began fostering Lucy in March, with intent to adopt… And they truly adore her – but it turns out Lucy needs a home where someone is home most of the time, and a canine companion to keep her company would be great…. As she suffers from separation anxiety, when left alone…

Here is what her fosters know about sweet Lucy:

“Lucy” is just a sweetheart… She’s an easy going dog and is attentive, learns quickly and likes to snuggle”. Lucy is a definite fit with families and children. She is smart & quick, kind & gentle and is submissive & tolerant. No nipping, no regular/nuisance barking or jumping up, and no resource guarding. Lucy is house trained (mostly, read on) and sleeps well in a crate at nighttime. She is a sweetheart who will sit or lay down for pets. Lucy is laid-back for the most part and is still being socialized to new household sounds like the smoke detector!

We think Lucy will do best with humans who are home more often through the day, or who have another furry friend – this supports her comfort and company and eases stress being left alone for longer periods of time. Accidents may happen if her humans are distracted by her play, indoors or out, rather than helping her focus on doing her business first. Whining, barking, and sitting up at the door are indoor signs she needs to go out. Regular exercise, play, and attention helps reduce puppy behaviour related to chewing and paws on the counter.

Lucy loves pets and rubs, playtime, walks & runs, her chew toys, and her crate for quiet time. Treats go a long way to learning new skills and behaviour, a work in progress. Lucy plays well with people and animals (cats and dogs), she is spayed, travels like a rock star and really will be your best friend!

ALL potential adopters are required to submit an adoption application and be approved. You can do this online here: yukonanimalrescue.net/adoption-application/ If you have applied before; DO NOT apply again… Your application is filed… Instead - send a message through the YARN page, to ask that your application be considered for a specific dog. Applications are considered in the order that “interest is received” for each dog… But YARN will always pick the home that is best for “that dog”.

What a sweetheart! 💕🤗 We have adopted a beautiful pup through YARN who we love so much and has been a great addition to the fam. It's so tempting. If my housing situation were different I'd be adopting you miss Lucy. Hope you're able to find the furrever home you deserve!

Does anyone have a contact for this Rescue ? My daughter is trying to reach them as they have not returned her multiple attempts to contact regarding one of their dogs in her care for emergency temporary foster

She's beautiful 😍, I wish but never have reply

Hey Cheryl, I sent you a message about Lucy!

Awe! She's adorable

Oh this little angel baby girl.

Hunter Hogan I wish we had a house

I wish too

Veronique Lafond 😭 Takus new bff

Did Lucy find a home? For anyone thinking about Lucy…I have her brother and he’s the sweetest boy in the world. Very very smart, easy to train. 10/10 recommend.

Did this girl find her forever home? I am looking for a companion for our 8 year old Labradoodle after losing our 12 year old lab.

IS YOUR YARN PUP 6 MONTHS OLD...?
AND NOT SPAYED / NEUTERED YET...?

I have a spay appointment for tomorrow morning, Wednesday May 10th... I could let one of my adopters use this appt. You would pay the bill - I just get you in immediately (adopters are required to spay at 6 months old).

Yep - it's short notice... But it is often a 3 Month Wait to get a spay appt.

FOSTER NEEDED:

“Penguin” needs a new foster home…. His current fosters began major home renovations 2 days ago… so Penguin needs a new place to hang until the shelter has space to take him, or he finds his fur-ever home – whichever comes first…

ABOUT PENGUIN:

Hello…. I am “Penguin” a Handsome, 6-Month-Old Male pup from the “Bird” litter. I look a lot like my Mom, a Golden Lab Cross…? Dad was a one-night stand and mama ain’t talkin’… but looks like he might be a Husky… I am a Medium/Large Sized dog, who would love an active life with a family that takes their dogs along on the adventures…

My last foster says I am a really nice dog, who is active and energetic, good with kids and babies, housetrained, and have experience being locked in my "room" when the humans are away. No experience with cats, but I’ve lived with my sister since birth. I am good on leash.

DOG NEEDING A RIDE...

Watson Lake to Whitehorse... When...? Tuesday April 4th or later... Any ride that arrives in the city, while the Mae Bachur Animal Shelter is "Open"... See hours in the comments...

HSY agreed they can take this girl... A 1-Year-Old, Medium Sized, Female. She may argue with other female dogs, as she is not spayed yet... so a ride without other pets would be calmer.

Send YARN a message if you can be part of this girl's path to her new life...

WHITEHORSE FOSTER NEEDED:

This boy named "July" is seeking a new foster home... His current foster's schedule does not allow him to continue fostering... Could this fella visit with you for a bit...?

Hello… My name is: “July”… I am a handsome 5-Month-Old, Male pup, from YARN's - “Months” litter. I take after my Mom who looks like a Blonde Lab Cross, who also has Pitbull in her mix. Dad was a one-night stand and mama ain't talkin'... but maybe he was a Manchester Terrier or Min-Pin…? Half of my siblings look like him. We could be anywhere from Medium to Large Size… I currently weigh 35 lbs.

My foster says: “July” is very playful but also loves a cozy spot to relax. He’s puppy pad trained. Likes to play in the snow but not for too long. He loves to snuggle with other dogs but also with us and the kids. He plays gentle with the kids and can play hard with the big and small dogs. He’s only been in the car twice and wasn’t too stressed. He loves to chew bones. He sleeps in a large crate at night.

He looks so lovely..😍

Feel free to send me a message if you have questions about this pup.

Is he good with other dogs, is over his destructive phase, Is he potty trained?

Hello… My name is: “April”… I am a cute little girl, from the “Months” litter. I am a smaller 5-Month-Old pup who will likely grow to a Medium Size. Maybe Dad was a Manchester Terrier or Min-Pin…? About 5 of us look like him - I’m the smallest of those… Mom looks like a Blonde Lab Cross... She also has Pitbull in her mix.

My foster says: April must be the runt of the litter because she was 11 lbs when we weighed her last week. She is shy with strangers but is very curious, playful and goofy and loves to cuddle and be carried around. She has a lot of love to give and is excited to give kisses and be petted. She has great recall, is almost getting the hang of being house trained. April is kennel trained and loves her kennel, it is her safe space and favorite place to nap.
