Welcome to the Shelter!

At long last we bring you an exclusive look inside the IHS Shelter online! These are the faces of puppies and kitties that have come and gone or are still with us. Some are lucky enough to be in foster homes temporarily but most live day in and day out within the confines of out tiny facility. Some are more ready for adoption than others but ALL of our residents need safe, loving and responsible permanent homes.

For more information about any unadopted animal please call us at: 867-979-3651 or email adoptions@iqaluithumanesociety.com. If you'd like to inquire about fostering or sponsoring any animal please email us at fostering@iqaluithumanesociety.com.

Bio: Hi! I'm Ash Ash! I'm super excited about anything and everything! I love attention. I also love walking. I used to be ascared to go outside but I TOTALLY love it now. Some people say I got too much energy but that's only because I'm cooped up in a doggie cell for a long time! I'm still young so I can learn a lot of things if someone would just teach me.

Bio: Hello Iqaluit!. My name is Crystal because of my crystal blue eyes. I'm only a couple of months old and I'm new to the shelter. Even though they take great care of me here I'm still very timid and love to be cuddled. I love long warm baths. I got one just the other day! Even though they tell me I'm going to be a big doggie when i grow up, I'm just a big pushover who wants to cuddle all the time. I can't grow out of that!

Demeanor: Yappy and friendly

Neutered: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Curley. Can you tell why? I'm small and not much of a burden. I like walks and all but I can also go for some lounging in a nice, warm doggie bed. Some people say I bark a lot but that's only because I'm stuck in a cell for a long time. I'm sure if someone gave me some love and attention I'd be pretty darn quiet.

Bio: They call me Dozer as in Bulldozer. Why? Cuz I'm going to be a powerhouse when I grow up. Right now I'm just a whiny little baby. I'm a boy, what can I say? All I want is some attention and for someone to play with me as much as possible. I'm a sexy beast. I enjoy cuddling, candlelit puppy chow dinners and long warm baths so come on ladies (and guys I suppose) take me home and I can be your love puppy.

Status: Fostered

Demeanor: Shy, skittish but friendly

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Eclipse. I arrived at the shelter at a very young age and it kinda scared me a bit at first so I'm a little skittish. Now that I've been here for a while I'm starting to open up a bit. I had a girlfriend cat named Lunar who I hung out with all the time so I get along with other kitties (so long as they're not those stupid boys because I'm not fixed yet). I do like people and kids though. I just want someone to love me that's all.

Demeanor: Friendly and quiet

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Fluffy aka The Fluffster. I love everyone. Kids, adults, other animals... you name it. The way I see it, I'm too small to be causing a ruckus so I just stay quiet and do my thing. Don't get me wrong. I loves me some cuddling and playing. I just don't make a scene like some of my other shelter mates tend to do. I'm totally and inside dog so if you have a nice little spot for me, I won't take up too much space. Cheers!

Name: Lunar

Type: Cat

Breed: American Shorthair

Age: 1 years

Sex: Female

Size: Small

Color: Grey and black striped

Status: Fostered

Demeanor: Pleasant and affectionate

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: Hi. I'm Lunar. I'm still a young girl, barely a year old. I still have my claws but you don't have to worry about that. I'm so nice I'd never use them on anyone maliciously. Just point me towards a scratching post and I'm good to go. I also like other animals, adults and kids. I used to take care of my little kitty buddy Eclipse when the humans are away at the shelter so I'm very responsible. Mostly though, I just love to be pet. I'm all about the petting.

Name: Mookie

Type: Dog

Breed: Terrier mix

Age: 6 months

Sex: Male

Size: Medium

Color: Black

Status: Adoption Ready

Demeanor: Floppy, energetic and friendly

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Mookie. I'm pretty new to the shelter. I'm still pretty young so I don't know a lot of things. I know I like to play and bounce though. I've got that nailed. I also know how to accept random petting and babying. I just need someone to spend some time with me and gives me all kinds of love and kisses. I'm sure I can learn how to be less hyper if someone would just pay attention to me!

Name: Nuka

Type: Dog

Breed: Corgi / Jack Russell mix

Age: 2 years

Sex: Male

Size: Small

Color: Golden brown

Status: Adoption Ready

Demeanor: Fiesty and Energetic

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: Yo. Call me Nuka. Don't let my size fool you. I'll pick a fight in an empty room. I HATE other boy dogs. If you don't have kids maybe we can work something out because I only vibe adults like me. Don't try to tie me up though. I'll chew my way out of anything just so you know. Other than that I like to walk and play. I just need attention. Maybe that's why I'm so fiesty?

Name: Rolo

Type: Dog

Breed: German Shepard mix

Age: 9 weeks

Sex: Male

Size: Small

Color: Black

Status: New Arrival

Demeanor: Quiet, smart and lively

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: The name is Rolo. I may look innocent and cute but that's just my cover. My mission is to infiltrate the home of a prospective family and win their trust and affection with my unbelievably charming demeanor. The what? Well.. hmm... I haven't quite figured that out. I am only a couple of weeks old after all. I am a puppy mastermind though. If being quiet, playful and cuddly is what it takes to get me a home I'm quite confident I pull that off with little or no effort. I will find a home... oh yes, I will.

Name: Snuffy

Type: Dog

Breed: Husky / Shepard mix

Age: 7 weeks

Sex: Male

Size: Large

Color: Brown

Status: Adopted

Demeanor: Playful and wannabe tough guy

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Snuffy! I'm a baby but I'm the toughest tough that ever toughed tough. You better watch out. I'll fall asleep in your arms if you try to mess with me. I'm one of the lucky ones. I got adopted by a nice family. Hopefully they'll send pictures of me here so everyone can see how big and tough I get. Thanks IHS for making me a happy puppy!

Name: Twiggy

Type: Dog

Breed: Terrier mix

Age: 12 weeks

Sex: Female

Size: Small

Color: Tan and white

Status: New Arrival

Demeanor: Energetic and playful

Neutered: No

Sponsored: No

Photo

Bio: I'm Twiggy! Don't laugh! Just because I'm tiny does not give you the right to mock me. Okay. Maybe I'll let you mock me a little if you play with me. I'm so young that I don't know what to do with myself sometimes. I just want to play all the time and be in everyone's business. What can I say? I'm little and don't like being ignored. If you keep me inside and promise to bathe me in love and attention I promise I'll be quiet. Deal?
