Turkish Kangal and German Shorthaired Pointer Dogs Available for Adoption in Mississauga, Ontario

Meet Ursa!

Ursa is a sweet 1.5 year old Kangal and German Shorthaired Pointer mix. Her, and her siblings were found in poor conditions in a van in Mississauga and are part of a court case. While their court case is ongoing, they are currently only available to be placed in foster homes within Mississauga.

Ursa is a sweet, gentle spirit who loves to play and explore. She will need to be taught some manners, and some basic puppy training as she does pull on a leash. In her previous foster home, she was a very sweet and very loved girl but got too large for them to handle. She would do best in an active household as she loves to run outside.

Ursa gets along with every dog she meets, and may benefit living in a home with another dog. She would do best with children 5 years or older, and has not been cat tested.

If you would like to schedule an appointment to meet Ursa, please give the shelter (905-896-5864 option 3) a call to book and we will be happy to help.
