My name is Wick, or that’s what my friends call me. My full name is Cassbar’s Spark to Flame, because I am a CKC and AKC Grand Champion show dog Shetland Sheepdog. Pretty fancy, right? Don’t let my numerous titles make you uneasy, I’m happy to be around just about everyone.

Hi, I am Bree.
My mom gave me a fancy registered name for when I am a show dog, but everyone knows me as Bree. I am a “beautiful girl” according to a lot of people.
Meet Bree
My family adopted me from Steinbach & Area Animal Rescue in 2018 when I was 10 weeks old. Their best guess on my breed is Collie/Retriever/Mastiff mix.
Meet Tundra
Meet Rusty
My name is Rusty, but my CKC Registration papers say Cassbar’s Rusty Sriracha Saucy Rooster. I’m a SHELTIE! And that means I’m smart, fast, cute, fluffy, and kinda sassy.
