My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Reese is as sweet as everyone's favourite chocolate, so why not your new favourite dog?

She is a fun, loving young lady looking for an experienced home. Reese would benefit from someone who can work on her confidence as she can be quite anxious, and timid with new things. With slow introductions to new things and new people, Reese will hopefully gain the confidence she needs to become the dog of your dreams!

Reese would do best in a breed-experienced home who can help her work on her basic manners, jumping, walking well on a leash, and proper introductions to new dogs. She's very food motivated, so positive reinforcement training would be the best for her ongoing training! Reese has shown dog/cat reactivity and would do best as the only pet in the home.
This bright, friendly girl greets staff with a wagging tail every day, and she enjoys playing with her toys and running in the yard.


Do you think you could be Reese's person? Here are some ways to find out:
1. Visit our centre to meet her during viewing hours at 3202 Norland Ave, learn more about her ideal match and apply to adopt in person; or
2. Submit an online application adopt.spca.bc.ca and staff will contact the first suitable adopter to set-up a visit! Kindly note that due to the high number of applications and the availability of walk-in adoptions, an online applicant would have to be available to come in for a meet within 24 hrs.

Please note our adoption/viewing hours 1-5pm Monday to Wednesday and Friday. (Closed to the public Thursdays)

    Our Charter:



    The BC SPCA Charter is the foundation that guides the work we do:

    Whereas:

    The world is inhabited by many species sharing a common ecosystem of air, earth, and water. We recognize and value our interconnectedness with all animals.

    Therefore:

    The BC Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the quality of life for the animals of the world we share.



    We pledge our energies to inspire and mobilize society to create a world in which all animals, who depend on humans for their well-being, experience, as a minimum, five essential freedoms:



    1. Freedom from hunger and thirst

    2. Freedom from pain, injury, and disease

    3. Freedom from distress

    4. Freedom from discomfort

    5. Freedom to express behaviours that promote well-being.
