I'm known to be an absolute 'lovebug' and quite an adventurous pup.
I enjoy napping anywhere, but I know my favourite place will be cuddling up with my forever family. I recently met some tiny humans…guess WHAT!?? I loved them!
I adore people, big or small and love meeting new fur friends everywhere I go.
I’m very curious and love to explore new places during my walks.

Hi! It's me again, Naomi, and I'm still looking for my forever home🐾
Lately, I've been enjoying spending time with my foster sibling, going on winter adventures and best of all...napping with my stuffy!
My foster family says that I am very clever and food-motivated...but who isn't!? My love of treats has helped me quickly master my basic commands. I am also working hard on crate training and loose-leash walking.

Hi there! Our names are Sunny (left) and Naomi (right) and we have an exciting announcement to share...we're going to ARF's Beacon Hills PetSmart event this Saturday! That means that we get to meet all of you who choose to attend.
What's an ARF PetSmart event? Well, every couple of weeks, those dedicated ARF volunteers and workers bring some adoptable and 'fosterable' dogs to a PetSmart in Calgary so that people can meet us in person! Now, it is our turn to go, so come say hi🐾
*Please note* ARF does not do on-site adoptions. However, this is a great chance to meet some of our 'adoptables' and 'fosterables' and to talk to some ARF representatives about the adoption and foster process or any other questions you may have!
Remember Birdie? Well, she has been adopted and this is what her new family had to say...
"Our family recently adopted Birdie, now Poppy, from ARF after we lost our 2 senior dogs and cat in November and December 2023. I was immediately drawn to Poppy as not only is she beautiful but her bio mentioned she was good with kids, which was key for us. We met her and fell in love right away. Our family had a Disney vacation planned for the last week of January so our timing wasn’t ideal but I knew she was the one after our day visit.
Thanks to her foster family, we were able to pull this adoption off during that time. They graciously agreed to watch her while we took our trip and without this help, we wouldn’t have been able to adopt her.
Poppy is an absolute gem of a pup. She’s all legs and a bit clumsy but is so smart. We’ve started training using the ARF-provided vouchers that come with the adoption and it’s going well.
I cannot say enough positive things about ARF, their fosters, and of course, Poppy! Adopting is by far the most rewarding and affordable way to get a pet. ARF took care of her first shots, her spay, and microchip. If that wasn’t enough, the training discount you receive is higher than the adoption fee itself. ARF goes the extra mile to ensure that both you and your pet are set up for success.
Because of this positive experience we are now quite interested in becoming fosters ourselves in the future once Poppy grows up a bit and is trained.
Thank you ARF for bringing Poppy into our home and for all the hard work you put into saving these incredible animals.
My soul dog was an ARF dog.
I am so happy to see this post about Poppy (Birdie) The timing was not right, but I was in love with her, and I just hoped she found the right home and I wanted to know how she was doing. I'm glad she did. I'm still in love with her. lol
I LOVE when mamas find the best home!! Enjoy the good life sweet girl 💕
All of our dogs have been ARF dogs. They are the best.
She’s didn’t take long to settle in here! We are thrilled with her 💗

I really hate to see owners have dogs and puppies that they can't take care of their animals. Breaks my heart.
