Manitoba Mutts

 No,  due to a variety of risks, we do not permit adoptions when the intention is to keep the dog outside unsupervised when home alone

No, for the safety and health of our cats, we do not permit adoptions where the cat will be allowed to roam outside unleashed. We do however, have a Mutts Mousers program for homes that are looking to adopt outside only, feral cats that are not suitable for indoor living. Email [email protected] for information on […]

We do still permit adoptions, however to prevent any future litters being created by our animals, we can only adopt out spayed or neutered animals to a home with an unaltered animal.

No. To prevent Litter Mate Syndrome from developing in the animals, we do not permit adoption of multiple puppies. We require that if an adopter is looking to bring home a puppy, any resident dogs in their current home must be over 1 year of age.

We keep all approvals on file for up to 1 year. If you are on a waiting list for a certain adoptable and do not get a chance to meet them, you are pre-approved to adopt with us at any time (unless the animal requires a specific living environment, has specific needs, etc.)

We somewhat work on a first come, first served basis. The first applicant received for an adoptable will be processed and if the application is approved the adopter is given 24 hours to arrange a meeting. If they choose not to adopt we move on to the next application. If the applicant is found to […]

If within the first month of adoption you feel that you cannot keep the dog/cat, you will receive a refund of 50% of your adoption fee and we will take the dog/cat back into our care. After the first month, there will be no reimbursement of the adoption fee. We encourage all adoptive families to […]

We require that an applicant be 18 or over to adopt. If you are over 18 and live with your parents we require confirmation that they are aware and supportive of an animal being added to their household.
