Whippet and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption in Vaughan, Ontario

Meet Sabiny!

This affectionate, cuddly, easygoing whippet lab mix is 5 years old and 44 lbs. He is great with people, dogs and cats, good on leash, and house trained.

Sabiny lived in a home most of his life, but unfortunately his family couldn't take proper care of him anymore. He loves going to the beach, including the water and swimming and digging in the sand.

He is medium energy, playful, and loves going for walks. He has quickly become a shelter volunteer favourite! If Sabiny sounds like the one for you, please apply to adopt him.
