History: Wrinkles came into rescue from northern Manitoba, where she had been living with a loving family who, through no fault of their own, were no longer able to care for her and her siblings. She and her sisters spent time both indoors and outdoors, but always slept safely inside, knowing the comfort of a home and human care.
Because of this, Wrinkles has a wonderful foundation — she’s familiar with household life and is already comfortable being around people. She is gentle, affectionate, and eager to continue learning what it means to be part of a family. As she settles into new routines, her sweet personality continues to shine through more each day.
Wrinkles is now looking for a forever home where she can once again enjoy the security of sleeping indoors, feeling safe, loved, and truly part of the family. With kindness, consistency, and patience, she will grow into a devoted and loving companion.
ABOUT: SHEPHERD DOG BREED

With a heritage deeply rooted in herding and protecting livestock, shepherds excel at various tasks ranging from obedience and agility competitions to search and rescue missions. Their protective nature makes them excellent family pets, offering unwavering devotion and a natural instinct to watch over and care for their loved ones.
