My story

Raven’s story may have started as an unclaimed stray, but her future is full of warmth, comfort, and companionship—she’s just waiting for the right person to share it with. This lovely 8-year-old black Lab mix is the definition of a gentle, happy soul. Raven has settled into shelter life with ease, showing that she’s likely house-trained and well-mannered in a home environment. She carries herself with a calm confidence and a friendly, outgoing nature that makes her easy to love from the moment you meet her. Raven is a social girl who has done well around other dogs. She’s polite and knows how to set her own boundaries—if things get a bit too busy, she simply chooses to walk away. That kind of easygoing temperament makes her a wonderful candidate for a home with another respectful dog, though she’d be just as content soaking up all the love as your one and only. Like many of us, Raven has a soft spot for good food—especially her beloved wet meals! She’s a bit of a “curvy girl” right now, so she’ll benefit from regular walks and some fun mental enrichment to keep her feeling her best. Think leisurely strolls, puzzle toys, and plenty of quality time together. Above all, Raven is a gem: sweet, affectionate, and full of quiet joy. She’s the kind of dog who will greet you with a wagging tail, keep you company through life’s simple moments, and remind you every day how special second chances can be. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion with a heart as big as her appetite, Raven might just be your perfect match. Please complete an adoption application: https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions Raven has a future appointment to be spayed on May 12th and will be ready to go to her forever home after her surgery. Animal adoptions and viewing are by appointment only. This allows our Adoption Staff to spend quality time with each potential home to ensure the most successful matches are made between the animals and their new families. *Please note: we only adopt within Ontario

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Raven, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
