Hi everyone Can’t believe it is 6 years ago today that Barney arrived here at his forever home.  He is doing great and we love him to bits!  He loves to run around the backyard with his sister Dasher and napping in front of the window wherever the sun is shining in. Anyhow just thought…

Cela fera 1 an en février que nous sommes réunis et on file le parfait bonheur! Les journées ne sont pas banales; marches dans les bois, camping, chalet, on fait même du vélo dans un petit carrosse! Hé oui… je suis une grande voyageuse🐶!! Dès que cette pandémie sera terminée, on pourra aller vous rencontrer lorsque…

Meet Maddie ❤️ The unique dog that has changed me and my husbands life in a big positive way with her big personality. We adopted her in January 2018 after seeing that she needed help and got along with cats. We fell in love immediately with her big brown eyes and her unique stature. She…

We welcomed Nala into our home in early August 2020. Nala is a senior dog with dementia who has really found a place in our hearts. She was looking for a home to see out her final days and has been welcomed into our family of adults and by our 3 resident cats. We have…

I have no words!!!! He is delicious… spoiled, loved, smart and stubborn! I got the Gerdy’s jackpot! ~Felicia W.

We so clearly remember seeing Minka’s photo on Gerdy’s website 4.5 years ago, thinking she was such a unique-looking dog and hoping she would be a good fit for us in our new house.  When we first met her we knew right away that she had to be ours, even though she was overexcited and…

Despite her tumor and age, she continues to be her energetic, happy, life-loving and curious self. In fact, she outruns us some days on our walks! We are blessed, happy and so lucky to continue to have special moments with our Heidi. While this pandemic is absolutely terrible in every way, Chris has been working…

We knew that welcoming an outdoor cat might take some adjustment period but Charlotte was a huge surprise to us! She is the most affectionate and playful cat who follows us around everywhere we go. We give each other headbutts and kisses and Charlotte’s favourite past time is sleeping on our bed and she surprisingly…

From the first moment we met Sammy (aka Sergeant), I knew immediately that he would be the perfect fit for us and our 6 year old cat, Eddie. Sammy was shy and timid, but you could see in his eyes that he was the most kind and loving soul. His life started off on the…

BelleI feel so grateful that Belle came into my life at a time where I needed to feel a calm presence. She started off being very shy and scared but in only a month she has opened up and now climbs on my bed and comes to kiss my nose every morning. Her gentleness and…

I want to thank Gerdy’s Rescue, and especially Beverley A., a volunteer beyond words, for bringing Ariel into my home. My furever companion has been a god-send during this difficult time of Covid 19. She is lovable, playful, intuitive and smart. What else could anyone want in a cat? Thank you again and I hope…

Congrats on your gotcha day, August 29, 2020🎈 Happy and spoiled.

A big thanks to Gerdys Rescue for allowing me to open my home to Layla. Her kind and sweet personality is unlike any other. She adores cuddles and chasing her kibbles around the house. I am beyond amazed of the work this rescue does in helping dogs and cats get their second chance at life 💕…

Hi Gerdy & friends!Simon here! You probably remember me as Goliath but my mom only uses that name when I’ve managed to sneak some human food. It goes something like this : ” SIMON. GOLIATH. BALDRY.” Anyhoo, it’s been almost 4 years ago that you helped to find this family for me. They are so…

Winston is such a happy boy … he still dances when his leash comes out and he loves to walk his neighborhood.  Burrow toys are his favourite but he enjoys chasing/catching his ball even though he is sketchy about bringing it back – he figures I should have to chase him to get it back. …

Can’t believe it’s been 2 1/2 years since this one eyed pirate stole my heart! He’s wonderful and shows no deficit due to missing the one eye. His favourite pastime is playing in the park with all his friends and he puts up with long walks for my sake. The only lab that I know of  that…

Dahlia has blossomed! She wasn’t too sure about us at first but with some play, treats and affection she realized we weren’t so bad after all. She now softly mews to let us know she needs pets and a nice warm blanketed lap to nap on. My spouse and I are so glad to have…

This is Mika (aka M’Amour). I have had dogs all my life and after the devastating loss of our last fur baby (a Gerdy dog) we decided to adopt a cat. Mika won our hearts and after a few initial hurdles she has completely integrated into our family. She is such a sweet, gentle, affectionate…

When I spoke with Sandy who originally rescued Domino (Our Leo), I knew that it would take some work to help Leo feel comfortable in our home. The first day he arrived, he hid and didn’t move for hours and hours. Our hearts broke for him, he was terrified. Over the past month, we gave…

My daughter and I fell in love the moment we saw her and now we can not imagine our home without that  beautiful little girl. I can’t thank you enough for trusting me to be a forever humom to that beautiful older baby. Just wish more people would consider adopting older cats for they are…

Since coming into my house, Jackie has proceeded to make it his own, as evidenced by the generous amount of white fur left all over black furnishings and flooring.  He absolutely has no respect for my personal space, but won’t stand for me invading his. Heaven forbid I lock the bathroom door, but six months…

Max and Mia came to me via another foster after being rescued as part of a TNR effort (which explains their notched ears). Max began as the cuddlier of the two, but now, my primary job seems to be making a lap for them, often at the same time. I love that they spend some…

Il est très intelligent et docile , écoute bien les commandements, aime prendre des marches. Il est en forme pour un chien de 14 ans! ~Lise H.

Little Lexi completed our family in October of last year. She was so scared and timid when she first arrived but over this last 8 months has improved leaps and bounds with the help of her two older brothers Cookie and Cody. Her personality is really coming out and a typical girl is starting to…

In the photo below are our 2 beautiful boys Gus and Tux, who we were very fortunate to adopt 2 years ago. It didn’t take long for them to settle in and become best buddies. Both Gus and Tux are gentle, sweet, happy and healthy cats and a wonderful addition to our family.  Thank you…

Daisy was 8 years old when she came to us and now has been part of the family for almost 2 years. Bold and confident, she marched in like she owned the place. Her foster mom told me that the kitchen was Daisy’s favourite room in the house and she was right! She loves her…

The best words to describe Alfie are happy, happy, happy. What a change from when he first came as a foster with his sister Tia. They were both terrified and hid under the dining room table for weeks. Once he trusted me though, he adapted very nicely. After his sister was adopted, he learned to…

Sweet, little Rosie (aka Mindy) has been with me for almost three years. She was around 6 years old when I adopted her, a timid soul who had a rough beginning. She was terrified of everything. Her progress was slow and tentative and although she’s still shy and skittish, she’s come a long, long way.…

Lily (formerly Sister) began as a foster, but we quickly knew we needed to make her a permanent addition to the family. It took her a while to adjust, but now she is the queen of her castle. She spends her days playing with her fur brothers and sisters and sun bathing. She has been a…

Tyson has been such an amazing addition to our family.  He and our golden doodle Lucy, get along famously! So much so, they’re the inspiration behind a new cartoon on Instagram called “Lucy and Tyson”   We are so happy he came into our lives; he makes us laugh all the time.  We love him❤️ –…

I remembered that I had left the television on and went back to the room to turn it off. I found Larry lounging on the sofa and watching cartoons on TV.  It was the first time I saw Larry hang loose like this … I am very happy to see that he feels comfy in…

Crosby has been doing great in his new home!! It took him a while to get comfortable but his kind, sweet personality has really come out. Everyone who meets him loves him and he is especially loved by his family. He loves to cuddle and is happy anywhere as long as humans are around ❤️…

Beau is eating well and is a sweet snuggle-puss.  His blindness is not a problem.  He knows the house, the stairs and the back garden by heart.  Adopting Beau was Best thing I did in a long while. –Suzanne

Oreo & Bear have brought such joy to my life! Oreo (black and white) loves to eat and sleep and to receive lotttts of cuddles. She is also the big sister in the house and Bear follows whatever she is doing. Bear is curious and loves to play, especially with soft balls and ropes. She…

Gerdy and Marilyn, thank you so much for choosing us as Champ’s forever family. Adopted in September 2019, Champ, nine now has adapted incredibly well to our routine and is the king of the house. He makes us laugh everyday and is keeping us sane through this pandemic. Would have gone completely crazy without him. Keep…

Lucas was catatonic when I first met him. He would sit in corners and hide under tables and chairs. He is now starting to flourish. He loves looking out of windows, long walks and chasing birds. Lucas loves to cuddle and is a very gentle soul. He is coming into his own, slowly but surely.  …

I am beyond grateful to Gerdy’s for trusting me with the sweetest pup Edison (Eddie).  Everyday I get to wake up to his cuddles. A smarter pup I’ve never met. We are inseparable. I’d say Edison rescued me. Each day I pinch myself and wonder how did I get to be so lucky to care…

He’s so amazing, his character is unbelievable, everyone loves him so much😊💕

Je vous présente Toby. Un petit Yorkshire adorable que j’ai adopté via Gerdy’s à la mi décembre 2019. Il s’est tout de suite adapté à notre routine car en passant j’ai un autre chien de la même race. Il est très actif surtout pour jouer à la balle.  C’est un petit chien très affectif et il…

Adopting from Gerdy’s was an amazing experience….they are very thorough and efficient in making sure that it was a good fit for both Balou and us…and as you can see,  Balou has fit right in…he enjoys playing with his pug brothers, and is a gentle giant…we cannot imagine not having Balou as part of our…

Puppy Nixie (was Willow) landed a great home with Gerdy’s Pepper (was Mia). My how she’s grown!

Gaston gets better everyday. We love him sooo much💕💕

Look at that beautiful smile!! Lexi has changed leaps and bounds from the short time we have had her… she was extremely nervous and shy and now she is the sweetest, friendliest, most cuddly dog!! She is such a quick learner!!  Her and her “dog sister” Kloie play for hours running around playing ball every…

Nuthin to do on a rainy afternoon but nap.
