Story
Meet Mauna Kea! Mauna Kea is a 3 month old Kangal mix, searching for her forever home. Mauna Kea is a lively and energetic pup who is always ready for an adventure! With a playful spirit and boundless enthusiasm, Mauna Kea is the perfect companion for an active family looking to add a burst of joy and excitement to their lives. This spirited little pup loves to run, jump, and explore, and she is eager to learn new tricks and games. Mauna Kea is at the age where training and routine are critical, so she needs the consistency, patience and love of her new guardian to show her the ways of developing into a mature and fulfilled adult dog. Adopters are encouraged to attend puppy obedience classes, but the basics are a must - leash training, socializing with people and other dogs, and, of course, house training. Mauna Kea won't be a puppy forever, and as she grows, there are some important things to keep in mind about her breed. Mauna Kea is presumed to be a Kangal mix, however we cannot guarantee this is 100% accurate without a DNA test. The Kangal is a large, powerful, and muscular Turkish livestock guardian known for being independent, courageous, and protective. They are loyal and gentle with their families but reserved with strangers, and not recommended for novice owners. These massive dogs require a lot of room and are not suited for small dwellings due to its size, strength, and energy. Highly independent and often stubborn, the Kangal can be challenging for inexperienced owners to train. Early socialization and consistent, experienced training are crucial due to their protective instincts and independence.So if you're looking for a fun-loving, rambunctious friend to keep you on your toes, Mauna Kea is the perfect match! If you think Mauna Kea could be a good fit for you, please fill out an application below.https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-kamloops/*TIP: We encourage all applicants to write a little bit about themselves when prompted.

Story
Meet Ziggy, a 5 month old Corgi/German Shepherd mix! This sweet boy was abandoned all alone in the cold, but thankfully he was brought into our care, and is now awaiting his forever home.Despite his tough start in life, he is a lively and energetic pup who is always ready for an adventure! With a playful spirit and boundless enthusiasm, Ziggy is the perfect companion for an active and outdoorsy guardian looking to add a burst of joy and excitement to their lives. Ziggy is at the age where training and routine are critical, so he needs the consistency, patience and love of his new guardian to show him the ways of developing into a mature and fulfilled adult dog. Adopters are encouraged to attend puppy obedience classes, but the basics are a must - leash training, socializing with people and other dogs, and, of course, house training. Ziggy has not been well socialized, and because of his age and lack of experience, potential adopters should be prepared to take on these challenges.Ziggy won't be a puppy forever, and as he grows, there are some important things to keep in mind about his breed. Ziggy is presumed to be a German/Shepard mix, however we cannot guarantee this is 100% accurate without a DNA test. Given his presumed breeds, there are some behaviours that Ziggy will need to channel in a healthy way. Corgis are a herding breed, so it's very important that he is given outlets for these instincts. German Shepherds are highly intelligent and energetic dogs, who thrive with lots of mental stimulation and exercise.So if you're looking for a goofy, rambunctious friend who is eager to learn and keep you on your toes, Ziggy is the perfect match! **We are accepting applications, and are looking for a Foster-to-Adopt home while Ziggy awaits neuter surgery. **If you think Ziggy could be a good fit for you, please fill out an application below.https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-kamloops/*TIP: We encourage all applicants to write a little bit about themselves when prompted.

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Mila! She is a 4‑year‑old Malinois cross who is ready to find her forever home. This darling girl was surrendered to us when she needed emergency surgery to save her life. She had been through a painful infection and traumatic surgery, so she was very nervous when she first arrived. She has since settled in and shown her true colours - fun, cuddly, and brilliant!True to her Malinois roots, Mila is happiest when she has a job or activity to do. She loves any activity that challenges her sharp mind and expends some of her boundless energy, whether that's long hikes, agility, obedience practice, or interactive play sessions. Mila is very well trained, knows several commands and tricks, and will often sit and wait even when she is bubbling with excitement! Exercise, and plenty of it, preferably side by side with her guardian, is paramount to her happiness. Daily games of fetch will keep this girl very content.Mila is a loving companion, so she struggles when she is left alone for long periods of time, and will vocalize when she is lonely or excited. She has a high prey drive and enjoys chasing squirrels, but has had friendships with cats in the past given proper introductions. She can be reactive at times but is glad to make dog friends with slow introductions, and she much prefers male dog friends. Mila is best suited to a highly active home that appreciates her need for both physical exercise and mental stimulation. She would thrive with adopters who enjoy outdoor adventures, structured training, and spending quality time with their dog. In return, Mila offers unwavering loyalty, a playful spirit, and the joy of watching a brilliant, sensitive dog flourish. If you think Mila could be a good fit for you, please fill out an application below.https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-kamloops/*TIP: We encourage all applicants to write a little bit about themselves when prompted.

Story
Meet Levon! He is a 3 year old Akbash/Lab mix, searching for his forever home.This big fella is the embodiment of a "friendly giant"! After coming to us as a stray, Levon had made his mark in the hearts of everyone he has met, dog and person alike. He really only needs two things in life to make him happy: Wide open spaces, and infinite pets and cuddles!Levon appears to be a mix of livestock guardian breeds similar to the Akbash. Known for being territorial, courageous, and loyal, they are highly intelligent but require an experienced owner for proper training and socialization. LSG breeds need plenty of room, so it's a necessity that Levon has a significantly sized, fenced outdoor area to spend his time. Akbashes are intelligent but independent, which can make training a challenge, and can be difficult for new owners to manage.Levon was found in a rural area, and appears to have little to no experience entering buildings/doorways or being on leash. A potential adopter will need to be willing to work on building new, positive experiences out in the world. When he first came to the shelter, Levon appeared to have inflammation issues with his skin and ears, including ear infections. He has been treated for these issues, but may need to be on an ongoing hypoallergenic diet.The greatest place this oversized lap dog could live his life is on a large property, farm, or acreage, with indoor/outdoor access or access to a weatherproof shelter. Given his history of being found as a stray, it is best that Leon is supervised in open areas, or secure in a fenced area. Levon loves other dogs, and would thrive with doggie siblings in his life. This special boy is awaiting his wide open spaces, and his future family's wide open arms. **Levon is awaiting neuter surgery, and is available for Foster-To-Adopt until he has been neutered and medically cleared for adoption.**If you think Levon could be a good fit for you, please fill out an application below.https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-kamloops/*TIP: We encourage all applicants to write a little bit about themselves when prompted.
