Pawsome: There are a ton of adorable dogs up for adoption in Alberta right now

Ready and looking to add a furry companion to your family? With the sunny season just around the corner, there’s no better time to adopt a dog in Edmonton or Calgary. Just think of how much better all your outdoor adventures would be with a four-legged friend!

From small and stout to large and in charge, Alberta’s BARCS Rescue has several adorable pups looking for a forever home or a foster family

“We give dogs the most important ride of their life. Founded in 2012, our volunteer-based charity has transported close to 2,500 dogs across North America and internationally that are at the threat of being euthanized,” they explain.

“Working in partnership with shelters, we identify and transport dogs on buses, cars and planes to pre-qualified homes in Alberta and the Eastern Region of B.C. When our dogs have adjusted from their journey and settled into their foster homes, they are either adopted by the foster or become available for adoption.”
