Gates is a 5-year-old mixed-breed dog with a heart full of love and a tail that never seems to stop wagging. This happy, active boy is always ready for an adventure, whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or exploring new places with his favorite people.

Friendly and affectionate, Gates loves spending time with his humans and is happiest when he’s included in the fun. He has a cheerful personality that brightens every room he enters and enjoys both playtime and cuddles after a busy day. He has interacted well with children, so he would do great in any family dynamic that is ready to open their hearts. He is untested with other dogs and has shown a prey drive to cats here in shelter, so a cat-free home would be best suited for him.

Available for adoption at the York Region Animal Centre located at 16586 Woodbine Avenue, Stouffville.
