CANELA
​ADOPTED

Female • Chocolate Lab x Viszla *  7 years • 17 kg


Sweet, low-key, but playful, Canela, looking for a quiet but active home.  She is social, affectionate, just a little unsure of herself in certain situations, but eager to please. Also fine with cats that mind their own business. 
NOW IN A FOSTER HOME IN VICTORIA, B.C.

TITA
ADOPTED

Female  *  Jack Russell Mix * 2 years * 14 k

Gazing with love into your eyes, Tita is a sturdy little bundle of love waiting for a home. She loves to play and can entertain herself by tossing a ball or rag in the air!   Although she has great play times with some of the dogs at the shelter, she does have favourites, so we recommend she be an only dog in the home. Tita has not been tested with children. We do know she shouldn't be around cats. Tita has some resource guarding around her food.  She'd love a space to call her own, along with the humans that live there!  Maybe you are looking for just a home companion?

Piper   
​ADOPTED

Female * Collie X GSD  *  11 years  *  15 kilos

Sweet Piper was in a home for eight years and is now looking for her new home.  The owner decided to give Piper back because she could no longer deal with her behaviour (constant licking and chewing of her limbs).  Thankfully, we found a wonderful foster home for Piper, where she is receiving the much needed freedom she never received in her previous home. It appears she had been micro mananged and given commands for everything and constantly reprimanded.  Piper will be looking for a calm, stress-free home with someone who understands canine behaviour and wants a loving companion to go on walks with, preferably with a retired person. She also seems to love men.  She must be on leash outdoors as she has a high prey drive. She is currently on Clomicalm anxiety medication.  Adoption fee to be discussed.  




  CHILI Courtesy Post Re-home
​ADOPTED

Female * Border Collie X Aussie x Lab - 8 years * 14 k

Chili is looking for a calm and peaceful home where she can bond with her new human, and receive a dedicated "leader" to work on and/or manage her anxieties and protectiveness.  Chili has lived in a home for seven years but needs to move on because of the arrival of a toddler in the home. Chili is not happy and not receiving what she needs.  Chili will make somebody very happy. She is a fast, fun, loving and smart companion, and probably one of the best cuddlers ever! She knows all of her basic commands, plus a few extra tricks. She loves car rides, she loves sticks, she is fine alone all day, she is crate trained and walks best with a halti. She would be ideal for a single person or a couple who love the outdoors and are prepared to give Chili routine, and direction. She can be fine with low energy dogs, especially off leash, but is reactive and unpredictable around new dogs, dogs on leash or within close proximity, or around a group of running/chasing dogs..
Overall she is wonderful with women, but initially does not trust men and is anxious within a very busy household or the coming and going of strangers.  This girl is looking for a very special home.

ROSITA

Female  * Shepherd X  * 1 year * 18 k

Rosita is nothing but pure sweetness.  Abandoned in a sort of garbage shaft and discovered totally by accident, then rescued by the local firefighters, she has developed and overcome most of her timidity. She still has some fear urination, but hopefully that will subside as she gains confidence in a new home.  It will be a joy to watch this angel blossom in a loving, medium active home. She will require a lot of patience and time. Little steps are important for her.  You cannot expect her to be an off leash dog, possibly ever, and she is not suitable for the dog park yet.  Vigilance is required to prevent her from bolting or escaping. 
​ROSITA IS IN A FOSTER HOME IN VICTORIA, B.C. HOWEVER WE ARE NOT DOING MEET AND
GREETS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

WANDA

Female • Cocker Spaniel *  5 years • 10 kg
ADOPTION PENDING

Super affectionate, playful, but initially leery, Wanda is looking for a quiet and gentle home with her guardians home half days.  She would love to go for walks and perhaps later be introduced to other dogs.  She hasn't yet been tested with cats or children and she will slowly be introduced to other dogs to test her reactions. 

TONY

Male • Aussie X *  8 years • 19 kg

Ol' Tony is still waiting for his forever home to appear. This senior fellow around 8 years of age is low maintenance. Kind of a grumpy fellow around other dogs (although he has recently displayed a few playful moves) so he will have a more successful placement as an only dog where he can hang out with his human, or lay in a corner somewhere and just chill. He will take a few weeks to adapt to his new home and his new person will need to understand that this guy had some issues around being touched when he first came into care here and may regress somewhat until he bonds and trusts. He now enjoys getting brushed and receiving affection and runs to greet you with excitement. No cats, no kids please. Maybe a retired couple just looking for a canine companion around the house?

FLORA

Female  * Vizsla x Shepherd   * 4 years * 28 k
SPECIAL NEEDS

Silly, submissive Flora!  Flora is a super affectionate dog once she knows you, and gets along with other dogs, including tiny ones.  She is quite nervous in new environments so continued, slow introduction to walks and visitors is important for her.  She won't be able to be off-leash for a while.  She would make a great companion for someone who is home a lot.  Flora is currently take medication for an immune disorder (thrombocytopenia) which will most likely be for the long term, so she needs a home willing to take on the costs of medications, prednisone. 

​

AGNES

Female  * Lab x Greyhound  * 2 years * 27 k

Oh, Agnes!  Such a tall black beauty with a shiny coat and gentle eyes.  Agnes did not get any socialization as a puppy and therefore is very shy and skittish.  She will need a home committed to helping her gain confidence and lose her fears of the outside world, or just accept her the way she is.  There are no guarantees!  Agnes will definitely require a quiet home with a high fenced yard, and be on leash for a very long time, perhaps forever.
