Trio Of Saint Bernard Dogs At A Shelter Must Be Adopted Together
Three Saint Bernard dogs, ages two, Gasket, Gunther, and Goliath, are searching for a loving home where they can both receive and provide affection. Due to their severe separation anxiety, the three dogs must all be adopted by the same individual.
According to Global News, they have been relocated from another animal protection group and are now in the care of the Edmonton Humane Society (EHS).

Manager of animal health and protection at EHS, Jamey Blair, stated:
Even with profuse drooling, these three gentle giants have captured the hearts of staff and volunteers. Although finding a home that can accommodate their 350 pounds presents a special difficulty due to their position as established pets, we are convinced that there is a family out there that will offer these three dogs a second opportunity.
Goliath, Gunther & Gasket weigh a collective 350lbs.. and they’re considered underweight! The otherwise healthy 1-2yr old St Bernards are available for adoption starting tomorrow… with one caveat: they must go together. Staff at @EdmontonHumane say they have a strong bond. #yeg pic.twitter.com/GKWSbqq0Vc

Jamey said that although animals tend to establish groups at shelters as they search for homes, he had never witnessed a situation in which three huge breed dogs formed such a deep bond.
“They’re far better off when they’re kept together; we want to make sure they’re not under any stress, and it’s much better for their general well-being if they move in together and spend the rest of their lives together.”

Jamey continued:
“The employees adore them. The entire workforce has been chatting about it.
Since the costs associated with maintaining the three of them will be fairly significant, EHS is aware that finding a single home for them would not be a simple task. The breed lives between 8 and 10 years, and it is believed that the expense of food alone is more than $300 a month.
