They take in the unclaimed dogs and cats from the vet pounds from Ripley to Goderich to Walkerton to Durham. The animals are vetted and then put in to foster homes. They are evaluated to see what suits them best. Many of the dogs are fostered with dogs, cats or kids. Their needs are posted in their biographies to ensure the best match for the dog and the adopters. They have a few bonded pairs of dogs looking for homes together. Oscar and Prissy are four- year-old chihuahuas. Oscar has been abused and is afraid of people touching him without his invitation. They would be best in a quiet home, with no kids, and few visitors. Maggie and Pria are shihtzus. They were from a breeder that decided to retire them. Shared photo Dogs like Maya are available to new homes from Lucknow Pet Rescue. They had no vetting and each needed a dental, lumpectomy, spay, vaccines, and chip. Pria also had a kidney stones removed. They are very good with the foster homes cats. Maya is one of several new arrivals. She is about nine months old and was impounded for being at large. When she was spayed it was discovered she was pregnant. She is doing well thankfully and is very well behaved. There are over 20 other dogs available for adoption. Ranging from small to large, young to adult. An adoption fee applies. Applications can be com- pleted online at www.adopta- pet.lucknow.on.ca Lucknow Midget Rep come away from Arthur tourney with good showing Denise Angst Contributor The Midget Rep had a great day Nov. 28 in Arthur and came away with two wins and a loss to end the day as Runner Ups.
