My story

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

*Buster is not quite ready to be adopted, and we are currently searching for someone who is willing to go through a Foster to Adopt trial, as his situation and behavioral issues are so complex*

*Local applicants only - up to two hours away will be considered*

Meet Mr. Buster, a sweet but timid soul looking for a patient and understanding forever home. This precious guy has had a ruff start in life, with little to no positive human interactions before finding refuge at our shelter. As a result, Buster is fearful and nervous, lacking confidence and struggling to adjust to the world around him.

Despite his past, Buster shows a glimmer of hope and trust, especially towards men, with whom he feels more comfortable. This suggests that with the right approach and environment, Buster has the potential to blossom into a loving and loyal companion.

Buster Bar is seeking a quiet home with patient and experienced adopters who can provide a structured routine and gentle guidance to help build his confidence. We believe a household with a quiet, confident dog his own size could provide him with the companionship and comfort he needs to continue to build his confidence.

If you're ready to open your heart and home to a dog in need, Buster is ready to learn what love and kindness truly mean.

**Buster is currently on a long-term anxiety medication and potential adopters should be prepared to continue to work closely with their vet regarding this**

If you think Buster could be a good fit for you, please contact the Kamloops branch with any further questions or fill out an application below.

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.
