Please read if you are thinking of adopting a dog or pup from us.
We have been overwhelmed by the numbers of inquiries and applications we receive once a pup becomes available for adoption. Within minutes our inbox is filling up with applications for the ONE puppy! Our procedure has always been to process applications on a first come/first served basis. It is the only way to guarantee fairness. Our application process remains the same as always with admin approval, reference checks, home visits etc. and we are not changing the process because of the increase in demand for puppies! Just because someone is the first applicant, does not necessarily mean they will be approved. We accept several applications for each dog/pup and then we STOP ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS.
We understand the frustration involved for people trying to adopt a new family member and not having their applications accepted because we have received so many already. It is frustrating to our volunteers as well to have to pass on bad news to people who are hoping to adopt.
Please understand that our volunteers are all doing their best to answer inquiries and process applications in a timely and thorough manner. Thank you!

dOur beautiful boy Yoda has a very long road ahead of him. We rescued him from a northern community where he was in danger of being shot. He came into care with many different issues including a genuine fear of people. He is suffering from Lyme Disease (serious case) and is Heartworm positive as well. (Also serious case.) His treatment (drugs and injections) will last one year and he will remain in care until fully recovered.
This beautiful boy is in an amazing foster home where he will remain until adopted! He is getting the veterinary care he needs from our terrific vets and also getting the proper emotional care necessary to recover from the life he had lived.
Yoda must remain on a very cautious exercise regime - lots of kennel rest. He still needs social exposure to help overcome his issues. Thankfully he is in a great foster home with other dogs and lots of experience. His future will be bright eventually and we are looking forward to that day! In the meantime, we are documenting his journey from very sick, previously unwanted pup to his eventual Happy Ever After! In care for just one month now, Yoda has gradually started accepting gentle touches without cringing and now actually gives a gentle wag of his tail to his foster family!
Yoda's veterinary treatment will be very expensive and we are hoping that people who are able to help, will donate towards his care. We will try to keep everyone updated on Yoda's progress, both physical and emotional, on a regular basis. He is such a sweet boy and he deserves only good things!
To donate:
Donations can be made either directly to Plessis Vet (state it is for MASR's Yoda) or, if you wish a tax receipt, by etransfer to: treasurermasr@gmail.com or mail a cheque to Manitoba All Shepherd Rescue, 1030 Boyd Avenue, Winnipeg MB R2X 1A1. You can also donate through our gofundme page here
