OWNERS FOUND AND RETURNED HOME ❤️🐾

🚨 FOUND DOG – SAFE AND SOUND (but not impressed with his roadside adventure) 🚨

This handsome little guy was found near Highway 2 by Nanton, dangerously close to traffic, and was brought to SAVE for safekeeping.

🐾 Male, neutered
🐾 No microchip found
🐾 Has a tattoo, but we are unable to trace it until the tattoo registry/hospital reopens
🐾 Currently safe, warm, and wondering why everyone is making such a fuss

If this is your dog, or you recognize him, please contact SAVE (Southern Alberta Veterinary Emergency) at 403-995-3270.

Please share to help get this little roadside wanderer back home! ❤️

🚨 OWNER FOUND 🚨

This distinguished gentleman was found hanging around near the Big Rock and has checked himself into SAVE for a complimentary stay. 🐕

He's a bit grey in the muzzle, a little stiff in the back end, and walks like he just got up after sleeping on the couch wrong for 17 years.

Unfortunately, he's not carrying any identification. No microchip. No tattoo. No note in his pocket. Not even a driver's license.

He is safe with us and seems to be wondering why everyone keeps asking him personal questions. 🤨

Do you recognize this handsome senior citizen? If he's yours, or you know where he belongs, please contact SAVE.

🚨💔 URGENT FOSTER OR ADOPTER NEEDED FOR BRUISER 💔🚨

Look at that face. 😭❤️

This is Bruiser — a Mastiff/Staffy mix... a *Mastaffy*, if you will. 🐾

He's about 50 lbs of pure love, with a head roughly the size of a small planet. 🌎😂

Bruiser is one of the sweetest, goofiest boys you'll ever meet. He loves people, lives for treats, and gets ridiculously excited when volunteers come to take him for walks. 🦴❤️

Sadly, kennel life is starting to take a toll on him. 😔 He came in with another dog who has already found a home, and we're watching this happy boy slowly start to shut down.

Bruiser is young (around 2), incredibly handsome, and guaranteed to provide endless giant smiles and goofy photo opportunities. 📸✨

Like many dogs who haven't had the easiest start in life, Bruiser appreciates a little time and patience when meeting new dog friends. Once he feels comfortable, his silly personality starts to shine. ❤️

🎉 Keep an eye out for Bruiser tomorrow at the Okotoks Parade! He'll be strutting his stuff with the amazing Pound Rescue crew. If you see a giant-headed handsome boy working the crowd for treats and compliments, that's him! 😎🐾

🏡 Foster or adopt through Pound Rescue
🐾 Foster supplies and support provided
❤️ Loves people
🍪 Loves treats
🚶 Loves walks
📸 Professional goofball

Please help us find this deserving boy a couch to crash on and humans to call his own.

🚨 OWNER FOUND: RURAL HEARTTHROB FOUND HIS PEOPLE 🚨

This handsome gentleman was found last night living his best life in a ditch near the intersection of 304 Street W & Highway 549, west of Millarville.

💔 Male Border Collie
🍖 Loves treats (all of them)
✂️ Still proudly in possession of his man bits
🐾 Extremely friendly
❌ No microchip
❌ No tattoo
❌ No collar or ID

Honestly, we're not sure if he got lost, was on a soul-searching journey, or was simply enjoying some quality ditch time under the stars. What we do know is that he's convinced every staff member here that they're his new best friend.

Do you recognize this ruggedly handsome farm boy? His modelling career can wait — we'd really like to find his humans.

📞 Please call SAVE if he's yours or share this post to help reunite him with his family.

🐾 FOUND CAT 🐾

This little lady was found this afternoon and has made herself right at home at SAVE Veterinary Centre.

She is an intact female with no microchip, tattoo, collar, or other identification. Based on her appearance, it looks like she may have recently raised a litter of kittens that have since weaned.

While she’s safe, warm, and receiving lots of attention, we’re sure she’d rather be back with her family.

If you recognize this sweet girl or believe she may belong to you, please contact SAVE Veterinary Centre at 403-995-3270.

Please share to help reunite her with her people! 🩶🐱

🌧️⛈️ OWNERS FOUND ⛈️🌧️

Apparently this guy missed the memo that hailstorms are not ideal walking weather.

This handsome intact male was found tonight (June 17) running around the intersection of Highway 549 and 304 Street West, west of Millarville, during the hailstorm. He has since checked himself into SAVE Veterinary Centre where he is currently warm, dry, comfy, and accepting sympathy for his rough evening.

Unfortunately, he has no microchip and no tattoo, and he isn’t giving us any useful information about where he lives.

If this soggy adventurer belongs to you, please contact SAVE at 403-995-3270.

Please share to help get this weather-resistant wanderer back home! 🐾

🐾 Male (neutered)
🐾 No microchip
🐾 Has a tattoo

He’s dry, happy, and making friends, but we’d love to get him back home where he belongs.

🚨🐺 FOSTER/ADOPTER PENDING 🐺🚨

Meet Boone. ❤️

Boone is a 2-year-old Husky mix who somehow ended up living alone beside a mailbox on a rural property outside Priddis for nearly a month. 📬

No warm bed.
No family.
Just Boone, his thoughts, and probably the occasional coyote judging his life choices.

A Good Samaritan finally brought him to SAVE, where we've learned that despite everything he's been through, he is an incredibly sweet, happy boy who still loves people. 🥹

Unfortunately, we were able to locate his previous owner, who already has more than 30 dogs and did not want Boone returned.

So now Boone is looking for a fresh start. ❤️

🐾 Approximately 2 years old
🐾 Neutered
🐾 Vaccinated
🐾 Friendly and affectionate
🐾 Good with the staff dogs he's met with proper introductions
🐾 Learning his leash manners
🐾 Professional vocalist 🎤

And when we say vocalist, we mean VOCALIST.

Boone is capable of performing emotional ballads, dramatic power anthems, and what can only be described as husky opera. 🎶🐺

The problem? Boone is absolutely miserable living in a kennel.

He spends most of his day staring out the kennel door looking sad, wondering where his people are and why nobody has come for him. Every day we walk by and tell him he's a good boy and that we're trying our best, but what he really needs is a home. 💔

A foster home.
A rescue placement.
A couch.
A backyard.
A human.
Literally anything that isn't a kennel.

If you can offer Boone a temporary place to crash, know a rescue with space, or better yet have room in your heart and home for this handsome boy, please reach out.

Let's get Boone out of kennel life and into the life he deserves. ❤️

📩 Contact SAVE for more information.

Please share! 🐾
