New Fee Explanation

Due to the ever climbing cost to care for all the dogs that come through Misty Creek Dog Rescue our adoption fees have increased. This will also eliminate any confusion surrounding the difference between dogs that are neutered/spayed and puppies that are not.

Our New Fees:

All dogs will now cost $375 plus gst to adopt.

All dogs that are over the age of 6 months will continue to be spayed/neutered before adoption.

All dogs under the age of 6 months will be spayed/neutered and microchipped at Misty Creeks expense and will be included in your adoption fee. Any other costs associated with the surgery will be the adopters responsibility.  This must be done at 6 months. The adopter is responsible for booking the appointment, however, it must be done at Fish Creek Veterinary Hospital

A huge thank you from the pups at Misty Creek to Lenya and Shiloh! And a very Happy Birthday!
